From 282de143ead96a5d53331e946f31c977b4610a74 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2022 07:25:55 +0530 Subject: bpf: Introduce allocated objects support Introduce support for representing pointers to objects allocated by the BPF program, i.e. PTR_TO_BTF_ID that point to a type in program BTF. This is indicated by the presence of MEM_ALLOC type flag in reg->type to avoid having to check btf_is_kernel when trying to match argument types in helpers. Whenever walking such types, any pointers being walked will always yield a SCALAR instead of pointer. In the future we might permit kptr inside such allocated objects (either kernel or program allocated), and it will then form a PTR_TO_BTF_ID of the respective type. For now, such allocated objects will always be referenced in verifier context, hence ref_obj_id == 0 for them is a bug. It is allowed to write to such objects, as long fields that are special are not touched (support for which will be added in subsequent patches). Note that once such a pointer is marked PTR_UNTRUSTED, it is no longer allowed to write to it. No PROBE_MEM handling is therefore done for loads into this type unless PTR_UNTRUSTED is part of the register type, since they can never be in an undefined state, and their lifetime will always be valid.
