Subject: bpf: Consolidate sleepable checks in check_func_call()
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a2542a91aafd5fcf20cd804cd14c9de52cfc397e;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

bpf: Consolidate sleepable checks in check_func_call()

The sleepable context check for global function calls in
check_func_call() open-codes the same checks that in_sleepable_context()
already performs. Replace the open-coded check with a call to
in_sleepable_context() and use non_sleepable_context_description() for
the error message, consistent with check_helper_call() and
check_kfunc_call().

Note that in_sleepable_context() also checks active_locks, which
overlaps with the existing active_locks check above it. However, the two
checks serve different purposes: the active_locks check rejects all
global function calls while holding a lock (not just sleepable ones), so
it must remain as a separate guard.

Update the expected error messages in the irq and preempt_lock selftests
to match.
