Don't know if extra check is cheaper than avoiding one memset() call, though.

I thought about that as well but, because it depends on the 'size', I decided to keep it simple. However, taking into account your other comments, I think there is a possibility to combine it all nicely in a separate function. > But regardless, this 6 level nesting looks pretty bad, maybe move the > for_each_possible_cpu() loop into a helper function? > > Also, does the per-CPU LRU hashmap need the same treatment? I think it does. Good catch! Thanks for your feedback. v2 is coming.

Zero-fill element values for all cpus, just as when not using prealloc. This is the only way the bpf program can ensure known initial values for cpus other than the current one ('onallcpus' cannot be set when coming from the bpf program). The scenario is: bpf program inserts some elements in a per-cpu map, then deletes some (or userspace does). When later adding new elements using bpf_map_update_elem(), the bpf program can only set the value of the new elements for the current cpu. When prealloc is enabled, previously deleted elements are re-used. Without the fix, values for other cpus remain whatever they were when the re-used entry was previously freed.
