bpf: tcp: Make sure iter->batch always contains a full bucket snapshot
Require that iter->batch always contains a full bucket snapshot. This invariant is important to avoid skipping or repeating sockets during iteration when combined with the next few patches. Before, there were two cases where a call to bpf_iter_tcp_batch may only capture part of a bucket: 1. When bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch() returns -ENOMEM. 2. When more sockets are added to the bucket while calling bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch(), making the updated batch size insufficient. In cases where the batch size only covers part of a bucket, it is possible to forget which sockets were already visited, especially if we have to process a bucket in more than two batches. This forces us to choose between repeating or skipping sockets, so don't allow this: 1. Stop iteration and propagate -ENOMEM up to userspace if reallocation fails instead of continuing with a partial batch. 2. Try bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch() with GFP_USER just as before, but if we still aren't able to capture the full bucket, call bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch() again while holding the bucket lock to guarantee the bucket does not change. On the second attempt use GFP_NOWAIT since we hold onto the spin lock. I did some manual testing to exercise the code paths where GFP_NOWAIT is used and where ERR_PTR(err) is returned. I used the realloc test cases included later in this series to trigger a scenario where a realloc happens inside bpf_iter_tcp_batch and made a small code tweak to force the first realloc attempt to allocate a too-small batch, thus requiring another attempt with GFP_NOWAIT. Some printks showed both reallocs with the tests passing: Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_USER Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_NOWAIT Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_USER Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_NOWAIT With this setup, I also forced each of the bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch calls to return -ENOMEM to ensure that iteration ends and that the read() in userspace fails.
