bpftool is now totally compliant with libbpf 1.0 mode and is not expected to be compiled with pre-1.0, let's clean-up the usage of libbpf_get_error(). The changes stay aligned with returned errors always negative. - In tools/bpf/bpftool/btf.c This fixes an uninitialized local variable `err` in function do_dump() because it may now be returned without having been set. - This also removes the checks on NULL pointers before calling btf__free() because that function already does the check.

Yonghong Song says: ==================== Currenty, a non-tracing bpf program typically has a single 'context' argument with predefined uapi struct type. Following these uapi struct, user is able to access other fields defined in uapi header. Inside the kernel, the user-seen 'context' argument is replaced with 'kernel context' (or 'kctx' in short) which can access more information than what uapi header provides. To access other info not in uapi header, people typically do two things: (1). extend uapi to access more fields rooted from 'context'. (2). use bpf_probe_read_kernl() helper to read particular field based on kctx. Using (1) needs uapi change and using (2) makes code more complex since direct memory access is not allowed. There are already a few instances trying to access more information from kctx: . trying to access some fields from perf_event kctx ([1]). . trying to access some fields from xdp kctx ([2]). This patch set tried to allow direct memory access for kctx fields by introducing bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() kfunc. Martin mentioned a use case like type casting below: #define skb_shinfo(SKB) ((struct skb_shared_info *)(skb_end_pointer(SKB))) basically a 'unsigned char *" casted to 'struct skb_shared_info *'. This patch set tries to support such a use case as well with bpf_rdonly_cast(). For the patch series, Patch 1 added support for a kfunc available to all prog types. Patch 2 added bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() kfunc. Patch 3 added bpf_rdonly_cast() kfunc. Patch 4 added a few positive and negative tests.

Three tests are added. One is from John Fastabend ({1]) which tests tracing style access for xdp program from the kernel ctx. Another is a tc test to test both kernel ctx tracing style access and explicit non-ctx type cast. The third one is for negative tests including two tests, a tp_bpf test where the bpf_rdonly_cast() returns a untrusted ptr which cannot be used as helper argument, and a tracepoint test where the kernel ctx is a u64. Also added the test to DENYLIST.s390x since s390 does not currently support calling kernel functions in JIT mode.

Implement bpf_rdonly_cast() which tries to cast the object to a specified type. This tries to support use case like below: #define skb_shinfo(SKB) ((struct skb_shared_info *)(skb_end_pointer(SKB))) where skb_end_pointer(SKB) is a 'unsigned char *' and needs to be casted to 'struct skb_shared_info *'. The signature of bpf_rdonly_cast() looks like void *bpf_rdonly_cast(void *obj, __u32 btf_id) The function returns the same 'obj' but with PTR_TO_BTF_ID with btf_id. The verifier will ensure btf_id being a struct type. Since the supported type cast may not reflect what the 'obj' represents, the returned btf_id is marked as PTR_UNTRUSTED, so the return value and subsequent pointer chasing cannot be used as helper/kfunc arguments.

Implement bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() kfunc which does a type cast of a uapi ctx object to the corresponding kernel ctx. Previously if users want to access some data available in kctx but not in uapi ctx, bpf_probe_read_kernel() helper is needed. The introduction of bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() allows direct memory access which makes code simpler and easier to understand.

David Vernet says: ==================== Now that BPF supports adding new kernel functions with kfuncs, and storing kernel objects in maps with kptrs, we can add a set of kfuncs which allow struct task_struct objects to be stored in maps as referenced kptrs. The possible use cases for doing this are plentiful. During tracing, for example, it would be useful to be able to collect some tasks that performed a certain operation, and then periodically summarize who they are, which cgroup they're in, how much CPU time they've utilized, etc. Doing this now would require storing the tasks' pids along with some relevant data to be exported to user space, and later associating the pids to tasks in other event handlers where the data is recorded. Another useful by-product of this is that it allows a program to pin a task in a BPF program, and by proxy therefore also e.g. pin its task local storage. In order to support this, we'll need to expand KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to support receiving trusted, non-refcounted pointers. It currently only supports either PTR_TO_CTX pointers, or refcounted pointers. What this means in terms of the implementation is that check_kfunc_args() would have to also check for the PTR_TRUSTED or MEM_ALLOC type modifiers when determining if a trusted KF_ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_BTF_ID or KF_ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID pointer requires a refcount. Note that PTR_UNTRUSTED is insufficient for this purpose, as it does not cover all of the possible types of potentially unsafe pointers. For example, a pointer obtained from walking a struct is not PTR_UNTRUSTED. To account for this and enable us to expand KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to include allow-listed arguments such as those passed by the kernel to tracepoints and struct_ops callbacks, this patch set also introduces a new PTR_TRUSTED type flag modifier which records if a pointer was obtained passed from the kernel in a trusted context. Currently, both PTR_TRUSTED and MEM_ALLOC are used to imply that a pointer is trusted. Longer term, PTR_TRUSTED should be the sole source of truth for whether a pointer is trusted. This requires us to set PTR_TRUSTED when appropriate (e.g. when setting MEM_ALLOC), and unset it when appropriate (e.g. when setting PTR_UNTRUSTED). We don't do that in this patch, as we need to do more clean up before this can be done in a clear and well-defined manner. In closing, this patch set: 1. Adds the new PTR_TRUSTED register type modifier flag, and updates the verifier and existing selftests accordingly. Also expands KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to also include trusted pointers that were not obtained from walking structs. 2. Adds a new set of kfuncs that allows struct task_struct* objects to be used as kptrs. 3. Adds a new selftest suite to validate these new task kfuncs. --- Changelog: v8 -> v9: - Moved check for release register back to where we check for !PTR_TO_BTF_ID || socket. Change the verifier log message to reflect really what's being tested (the presence of unsafe modifiers) (Alexei) - Fix verifier_test error tests to reflect above changes - Remove unneeded parens around bitwise operator checks (Alexei) - Move updates to reg_type_str() which allow multiple type modifiers to be present in the prefix string, to a separate patch (Alexei) - Increase TYPE_STR_BUF_LEN size to 128 to reflect larger prefix size in reg_type_str(). v7 -> v8: - Rebased onto Kumar's latest patch set which, adds a new MEM_ALLOC reg type modifier for bpf_obj_new() calls. - Added comments to bpf_task_kptr_get() describing some of the subtle races we're protecting against (Alexei and John) - Slightly rework process_kf_arg_ptr_to_btf_id(), and add a new reg_has_unsafe_modifiers() function which validates that a register containing a kfunc release arg doesn't have unsafe modifiers. Note that this is slightly different than the check for KF_TRUSTED_ARGS. An alternative here would be to treat KF_RELEASE as implicitly requiring KF_TRUSTED_ARGS. - Export inline bpf_type_has_unsafe_modifiers() function from bpf_verifier.h so that it can be used from bpf_tcp_ca.c. Eventually this function should likely be changed to bpf_type_is_trusted(), once PTR_TRUSTED is the real source of truth. v6 -> v7: - Removed the PTR_WALKED type modifier, and instead define a new PTR_TRUSTED type modifier which is set on registers containing pointers passed from trusted contexts (i.e. as tracepoint or struct_ops callback args) (Alexei) - Remove the new KF_OWNED_ARGS kfunc flag. This can be accomplished by defining a new type that wraps an existing type, such as with struct nf_conn___init (Alexei) - Add a test_task_current_acquire_release testcase which verifies we can acquire a task struct returned from bpf_get_current_task_btf(). - Make bpf_task_acquire() no longer return NULL, as it can no longer be called with a NULL task. - Removed unnecessary is_test_kfunc_task() checks from failure testcases. v5 -> v6: - Add a new KF_OWNED_ARGS kfunc flag which may be used by kfuncs to express that they require trusted, refcounted args (Kumar) - Rename PTR_NESTED -> PTR_WALKED in the verifier (Kumar) - Convert reg_type_str() prefixes to use snprintf() instead of strncpy() (Kumar) - Add PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_WALKED to missing struct btf_reg_type instances -- specifically btf_id_sock_common_types, and percpu_btf_ptr_types. - Add a missing PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_WALKED switch case entry in check_func_arg_reg_off(), which is required when validating helper calls (Kumar) - Update reg_type_mismatch_ok() to check base types for the registers (i.e. to accommodate type modifiers). Additionally, add a lengthy comment that explains why this is being done (Kumar) - Update convert_ctx_accesses() to also issue probe reads for PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_WALKED (Kumar) - Update selftests to expect new prefix reg type strings. - Rename task_kfunc_acquire_trusted_nested testcase to task_kfunc_acquire_trusted_walked, and fix a comment (Kumar) - Remove KF_TRUSTED_ARGS from bpf_task_release(), which already includes KF_RELEASE (Kumar) - Add bpf-next in patch subject lines (Kumar) v4 -> v5: - Fix an improperly formatted patch title. v3 -> v4: - Remove an unnecessary check from my repository that I forgot to remove after debugging something. v2 -> v3: - Make bpf_task_acquire() check for NULL, and include KF_RET_NULL (Martin) - Include new PTR_NESTED register modifier type flag which specifies whether a pointer was obtained from walking a struct. Use this to expand the meaning of KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to include trusted pointers that were passed from the kernel (Kumar) - Add more selftests to the task_kfunc selftest suite which verify that you cannot pass a walked pointer to bpf_task_acquire(). - Update bpf_task_acquire() to also specify KF_TRUSTED_ARGS. v1 -> v2: - Rename tracing_btf_ids to generic_kfunc_btf_ids, and add the new kfuncs to that list instead of making a separate btf id list (Alexei). - Don't run the new selftest suite on s390x, which doesn't appear to support invoking kfuncs. - Add a missing __diag_ignore block for -Wmissing-prototypes (lkp@intel.com). - Fix formatting on some of the SPDX-License-Identifier tags. - Clarified the function header comment a bit on bpf_task_kptr_get(). ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Kfuncs currently support specifying the KF_TRUSTED_ARGS flag to signal to the verifier that it should enforce that a BPF program passes it a "safe", trusted pointer. Currently, "safe" means that the pointer is either PTR_TO_CTX, or is refcounted. There may be cases, however, where the kernel passes a BPF program a safe / trusted pointer to an object that the BPF program wishes to use as a kptr, but because the object does not yet have a ref_obj_id from the perspective of the verifier, the program would be unable to pass it to a KF_ACQUIRE | KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfunc. The solution is to expand the set of pointers that are considered trusted according to KF_TRUSTED_ARGS, so that programs can invoke kfuncs with these pointers without getting rejected by the verifier. There is already a PTR_UNTRUSTED flag that is set in some scenarios, such as when a BPF program reads a kptr directly from a map without performing a bpf_kptr_xchg() call. These pointers of course can and should be rejected by the verifier. Unfortunately, however, PTR_UNTRUSTED does not cover all the cases for safety that need to be addressed to adequately protect kfuncs. Specifically, pointers obtained by a BPF program "walking" a struct are _not_ considered PTR_UNTRUSTED according to BPF. For example, say that we were to add a kfunc called bpf_task_acquire(), with KF_ACQUIRE | KF_TRUSTED_ARGS, to acquire a struct task_struct *. If we only used PTR_UNTRUSTED to signal that a task was unsafe to pass to a kfunc, the verifier would mistakenly allow the following unsafe BPF program to be loaded: SEC("tp_btf/task_newtask") int BPF_PROG(unsafe_acquire_task, struct task_struct *task, u64 clone_flags) { struct task_struct *acquired, *nested; nested = task->last_wakee; /* Would not be rejected by the verifier. */ acquired = bpf_task_acquire(nested); if (!acquired) return 0; bpf_task_release(acquired); return 0; } To address this, this patch defines a new type flag called PTR_TRUSTED which tracks whether a PTR_TO_BTF_ID pointer is safe to pass to a KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfunc or a BPF helper function. PTR_TRUSTED pointers are passed directly from the kernel as a tracepoint or struct_ops callback argument. Any nested pointer that is obtained from walking a PTR_TRUSTED pointer is no longer PTR_TRUSTED. From the example above, the struct task_struct *task argument is PTR_TRUSTED, but the 'nested' pointer obtained from 'task->last_wakee' is not PTR_TRUSTED. A subsequent patch will add kfuncs for storing a task kfunc as a kptr, and then another patch will add selftests to validate.

reg_type_str() in the verifier currently only allows a single register type modifier to be present in the 'prefix' string which is eventually stored in the env type_str_buf. This currently works fine because there are no overlapping type modifiers, but once PTR_TRUSTED is added, that will no longer be the case. This patch updates reg_type_str() to support having multiple modifiers in the prefix string, and updates the size of type_str_buf to be 128 bytes.

Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi says: ==================== This series introduces user defined BPF objects of a type in program BTF. This allows BPF programs to allocate their own objects, build their own object hierarchies, and use the basic building blocks provided by BPF runtime to build their own data structures flexibly. Then, we introduce the support for single ownership BPF linked lists, which can be put inside BPF maps, or allocated objects, and hold such allocated objects as elements. It works as an instrusive collection, which is done to allow making allocated objects part of multiple data structures at the same time in the future. The eventual goal of this and future patches is to allow one to do some limited form of kernel style programming in BPF C, and allow programmers to build their own complex data structures flexibly out of basic building blocks. The key difference will be that such programs are verified to be safe, preserve runtime integrity of the system, and are proven to be bug free as far as the invariants of BPF specific APIs are concerned. One immediate use case that will be using the entire infrastructure this series is introducing will be managing percpu NMI safe linked lists inside BPF programs. The other use case this will serve in the near future will be linking kernel structures like XDP frame and sk_buff directly into user data structures (rbtree, pifomap, etc.) for packet queueing. This will follow single ownership concept included in this series. The user has complete control of the internal locking, and hence also the batching of operations for each critical section. The features are: - Allocated objects. - bpf_obj_new, bpf_obj_drop to allocate and free them. - Single ownership BPF linked lists. - Support for them in BPF maps. - Support for them in allocated objects. - Global spin locks. - Spin locks inside allocated objects. Some other notable things: - Completely static verification of locking. - Kfunc argument handling has been completely reworked. - Argument rewriting support for kfuncs. - A new bpf_experimental.h header as a dumping ground for these APIs. Any functionality exposed in this series is NOT part of UAPI. It is only available through use of kfuncs, and structs that can be added to map value may also change their size or name in the future. Hence, every feature in this series must be considered experimental. Follow-ups: ----------- * Support for kptrs (local and kernel) in local storage and percpu maps + kptr tests * Fixes for helper access checks rebasing on top of this series Next steps: ----------- * NMI safe percpu single ownership linked lists (using local_t protection). * Lockless linked lists. * Allow RCU protected BPF allocated objects. This then allows RCU protected list lookups, since spinlock protection for readers does not scale. * Introduce bpf_refcount for local kptrs, shared ownership. * Introduce shared ownership linked lists. * Documentation.

First, ensure that whenever a bpf_spin_lock is present in an allocation, the reg->id is preserved. This won't be true for global variables however, since they have a single map value per map, hence the verifier harcodes it to 0 (so that multiple pseudo ldimm64 insns can yield the same lock object per map at a given offset). Next, add test cases for all possible combinations (kptr, global, map value, inner map value). Since we lifted restriction on locking in inner maps, also add test cases for them. Currently, each lookup into an inner map gets a fresh reg->id, so even if the reg->map_ptr is same, they will be treated as separate allocations and the incorrect unlock pairing will be rejected.

The old behavior of bpf_map_meta_equal was that it compared timer_off to be equal (but not spin_lock_off, because that was not allowed), and did memcmp of kptr_off_tab. Now, we memcmp the btf_record of two bpf_map structs, which has all fields. We preserve backwards compat as we kzalloc the array, so if only spin lock and timer exist in map, we only compare offset while the rest of unused members in the btf_field struct are zeroed out. In case of kptr, btf and everything else is of vmlinux or module, so as long type is same it will match, since kernel btf, module, dtor pointer will be same across maps. Now with list_head in the mix, things are a bit complicated. We implicitly add a requirement that both BTFs are same, because struct btf_field_list_head has btf and value_rec members. We obviously shouldn't force BTFs to be equal by default, as that breaks backwards compatibility. Currently it is only implicitly required due to list_head matching struct btf and value_rec member. value_rec points back into a btf_record stashed in the map BTF (btf member of btf_field_list_head). So that pointer and btf member has to match exactly. Document all these subtle details so that things don't break in the future when touching this code.

This commit implements the delayed release logic for bpf_list_push_front and bpf_list_push_back. Once a node has been added to the list, it's pointer changes to PTR_UNTRUSTED. However, it is only released once the lock protecting the list is unlocked. For such PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC with PTR_UNTRUSTED set but an active ref_obj_id, it is still permitted to read them as long as the lock is held. Writing to them is not allowed. This allows having read access to push items we no longer own until we release the lock guarding the list, allowing a little more flexibility when working with these APIs. Note that enabling write support has fairly tricky interactions with what happens inside the critical section. Just as an example, currently, bpf_obj_drop is not permitted, but if it were, being able to write to the PTR_UNTRUSTED pointer while the object gets released back to the memory allocator would violate safety properties we wish to guarantee (i.e. not crashing the kernel). The memory could be reused for a different type in the BPF program or even in the kernel as it gets eventually kfree'd. Not enabling bpf_obj_drop inside the critical section would appear to prevent all of the above, but that is more of an artifical limitation right now. Since the write support is tangled with how we handle potential aliasing of nodes inside the critical section that may or may not be part of the list anymore, it has been deferred to a future patch.

Add a linked list API for use in BPF programs, where it expects protection from the bpf_spin_lock in the same allocation as the bpf_list_head. For now, only one bpf_spin_lock can be present hence that is assumed to be the one protecting the bpf_list_head. The following functions are added to kick things off: // Add node to beginning of list void bpf_list_push_front(struct bpf_list_head *head, struct bpf_list_node *node); // Add node to end of list void bpf_list_push_back(struct bpf_list_head *head, struct bpf_list_node *node); // Remove node at beginning of list and return it struct bpf_list_node *bpf_list_pop_front(struct bpf_list_head *head); // Remove node at end of list and return it struct bpf_list_node *bpf_list_pop_back(struct bpf_list_head *head); The lock protecting the bpf_list_head needs to be taken for all operations. The verifier ensures that the lock that needs to be taken is always held, and only the correct lock is taken for these operations. These checks are made statically by relying on the reg->id preserved for registers pointing into regions having both bpf_spin_lock and the objects protected by it. The comment over check_reg_allocation_locked in this change describes the logic in detail. Note that bpf_list_push_front and bpf_list_push_back are meant to consume the object containing the node in the 1st argument, however that specific mechanism is intended to not release the ref_obj_id directly until the bpf_spin_unlock is called. In this commit, nothing is done, but the next commit will be introducing logic to handle this case, so it has been left as is for now. bpf_list_pop_front and bpf_list_pop_back delete the first or last item of the list respectively, and return pointer to the element at the list_node offset. The user can then use container_of style macro to get the actual entry type. The verifier however statically knows the actual type, so the safety properties are still preserved. With these additions, programs can now manage their own linked lists and store their objects in them.

Pointer increment on seeing PTR_MAYBE_NULL is already protected against, hence make an exception for PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC while still keeping the warning for other unintended cases that might creep in. bpf_list_pop_{front,_back} helpers planned to be introduced in next commit will return a MEM_ALLOC register with incremented offset pointing to bpf_list_node field. The user is supposed to then obtain the pointer to the entry using container_of after NULL checking it. The current restrictions trigger a warning when doing the NULL checking. Revisiting the reason, it is meant as an assertion which seems to actually work and catch the bad case. Hence, under no other circumstances can reg->off be non-zero for a register that has the PTR_MAYBE_NULL type flag set.

Introduce bpf_obj_drop, which is the kfunc used to free allocated objects (allocated using bpf_obj_new). Pairing with bpf_obj_new, it implicitly destructs the fields part of object automatically without user intervention. Just like the previous patch, btf_struct_meta that is needed to free up the special fields is passed as a hidden argument to the kfunc. For the user, a convenience macro hides over the kernel side kfunc which is named bpf_obj_drop_impl. Continuing the previous example: void prog(void) { struct foo *f; f = bpf_obj_new(typeof(*f)); if (!f) return; bpf_obj_drop(f); } Signed-off-by: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <memxor@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221118015614.2013203-15-memxor@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Introduce type safe memory allocator bpf_obj_new for BPF programs. The kernel side kfunc is named bpf_obj_new_impl, as passing hidden arguments to kfuncs still requires having them in prototype, unlike BPF helpers which always take 5 arguments and have them checked using bpf_func_proto in verifier, ignoring unset argument types. Introduce __ign suffix to ignore a specific kfunc argument during type checks, then use this to introduce support for passing type metadata to the bpf_obj_new_impl kfunc. The user passes BTF ID of the type it wants to allocates in program BTF, the verifier then rewrites the first argument as the size of this type, after performing some sanity checks (to ensure it exists and it is a struct type). The second argument is also fixed up and passed by the verifier. This is the btf_struct_meta for the type being allocated. It would be needed mostly for the offset array which is required for zero initializing special fields while leaving the rest of storage in unitialized state. It would also be needed in the next patch to perform proper destruction of the object's special fields. Under the hood, bpf_obj_new will call bpf_mem_alloc and bpf_mem_free, using the any context BPF memory allocator introduced recently. To this end, a global instance of the BPF memory allocator is initialized on boot to be used for this purpose. This 'bpf_global_ma' serves all allocations for bpf_obj_new. In the future, bpf_obj_new variants will allow specifying a custom allocator. Note that now that bpf_obj_new can be used to allocate objects that can be linked to BPF linked list (when future linked list helpers are available), we need to also free the elements using bpf_mem_free. However, since the draining of elements is done outside the bpf_spin_lock, we need to do migrate_disable around the call since bpf_list_head_free can be called from map free path where migration is enabled. Otherwise, when called from BPF programs migration is already disabled. A convenience macro is included in the bpf_experimental.h header to hide over the ugly details of the implementation, leading to user code looking similar to a language level extension which allocates and constructs fields of a user type. struct bar { struct bpf_list_node node; }; struct foo { struct bpf_spin_lock lock; struct bpf_list_head head __contains(bar, node); }; void prog(void) { struct foo *f; f = bpf_obj_new(typeof(*f)); if (!f) return; ... } A key piece of this story is still missing, i.e. the free function, which will come in the next patch.

Allow passing known constant scalars as arguments to kfuncs that do not represent a size parameter. We use mark_chain_precision for the constant scalar argument to mark it precise. This makes the search pruning optimization of verifier more conservative for such kfunc calls, and each non-distinct argument is considered unequivalent. We will use this support to then expose a bpf_obj_new function where it takes the local type ID of a type in program BTF, and returns a PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC to the local type, and allows programs to allocate their own objects. Each type ID resolves to a distinct type with a possibly distinct size, hence the type ID constant matters in terms of program safety and its precision needs to be checked between old and cur states inside regsafe. The use of mark_chain_precision enables this.

As we continue to add more features, argument types, kfunc flags, and different extensions to kfuncs, the code to verify the correctness of the kfunc prototype wrt the passed in registers has become ad-hoc and ugly to read. To make life easier, and make a very clear split between different stages of argument processing, move all the code into verifier.c and refactor into easier to read helpers and functions. This also makes sharing code within the verifier easier with kfunc argument processing. This will be more and more useful in later patches as we are now moving to implement very core BPF helpers as kfuncs, to keep them experimental before baking into UAPI. Remove all kfunc related bits now from btf_check_func_arg_match, as users have been converted away to refactored kfunc argument handling.

There is no need to restrict users from locking bpf_spin_lock in map values of inner maps. Each inner map lookup gets a unique reg->id assigned to the returned PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE which will be preserved after the NULL check. Distinct lookups into different inner map get unique IDs, and distinct lookups into same inner map also get unique IDs. Hence, lift the restriction by removing the check return -ENOTSUPP in map_in_map.c. Later commits will add comprehensive test cases to ensure that invalid cases are rejected.

Global variables reside in maps accessible using direct_value_addr callbacks, so giving each load instruction's rewrite a unique reg->id disallows us from holding locks which are global. The reason for preserving reg->id as a unique value for registers that may point to spin lock is that two separate lookups are treated as two separate memory regions, and any possible aliasing is ignored for the purposes of spin lock correctness. This is not great especially for the global variable case, which are served from maps that have max_entries == 1, i.e. they always lead to map values pointing into the same map value. So refactor the active_spin_lock into a 'active_lock' structure which represents the lock identity, and instead of the reg->id, remember two fields, a pointer and the reg->id. The pointer will store reg->map_ptr or reg->btf. It's only necessary to distinguish for the id == 0 case of global variables, but always setting the pointer to a non-NULL value and using the pointer to check whether the lock is held simplifies code in the verifier. This is generic enough to allow it for global variables, map lookups, and allocated objects at the same time. Note that while whether a lock is held can be answered by just comparing active_lock.ptr to NULL, to determine whether the register is pointing to the same held lock requires comparing _both_ ptr and id. Finally, as a result of this refactoring, pseudo load instructions are not given a unique reg->id, as they are doing lookup for the same map value (max_entries is never greater than 1). Essentially, we consider that the tuple of (ptr, id) will always be unique for any kind of argument to bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}. Note that this can be extended in the future to also remember offset used for locking, so that we can introduce multiple bpf_spin_lock fields in the same allocation.

Allow locking a bpf_spin_lock in an allocated object, in addition to already supported map value pointers. The handling is similar to that of map values, by just preserving the reg->id of PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC as well, and adjusting process_spin_lock to work with them and remember the id in verifier state. Refactor the existing process_spin_lock to work with PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC in addition to PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. We need to update the reg_may_point_to_spin_lock which is used in mark_ptr_or_null_reg to preserve reg->id, that will be used in env->cur_state->active_spin_lock to remember the currently held spin lock. Also update the comment describing bpf_spin_lock implementation details to also talk about PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC type.

Ensure that there can be no ownership cycles among different types by way of having owning objects that can hold some other type as their element. For instance, a map value can only hold allocated objects, but these are allowed to have another bpf_list_head. To prevent unbounded recursion while freeing resources, elements of bpf_list_head in local kptrs can never have a bpf_list_head which are part of list in a map value. Later patches will verify this by having dedicated BTF selftests. Also, to make runtime destruction easier, once btf_struct_metas is fully populated, we can stash the metadata of the value type directly in the metadata of the list_head fields, as that allows easier access to the value type's layout to destruct it at runtime from the btf_field entry of the list head itself.
