From: Tomas Glozar <tglozar@redhat.com> Disabling preemption in sock_map_sk_acquire conflicts with GFP_ATOMIC allocation later in sk_psock_init_link on PREEMPT_RT kernels, since GFP_ATOMIC might sleep on RT (see bpf: Make BPF and PREEMPT_RT co-exist patchset notes for details). This causes calling bpf_map_update_elem on BPF_MAP_TYPE_SOCKMAP maps to BUG (sleeping function called from invalid context) on RT kernels. preempt_disable was introduced together with lock_sk and rcu_read_lock in commit 99ba2b5aba24e ("bpf: sockhash, disallow bpf_tcp_close and update in parallel"), probably to match disabled migration of BPF programs, and is no longer necessary. Remove preempt_disable to fix BUG in sock_map_update_common on RT.

You might want some extra tags: Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200224140131.461979697@linutronix.de/ (local) Fixes: 99ba2b5aba24 ("bpf: sockhash, disallow bpf_tcp_close and update in parallel")ENOCOFFEE here (which is never an excuse, but at least today is really true), but I considered you may want this patch via the ebpf tree only after applying it to net. Hopefully should not be tragic, but please let me know if you prefer the change reverted from net and going via the other path.
It's fine. Probably it shouldn't conflict with other sockmap fixes.
