Drop __rcu annotations and rcu read sections from bpf_prog_array helper functions. They are not needed since all existing callers call those helpers from the rcu update side while holding a mutex. This guarantees that use-after-free could not happen. In the next patches I'll fix the callers with missing rcu_dereference_protected to make sparse/lockdep happy, the proper way to use these helpers is: struct bpf_prog_array __rcu *progs = ...; struct bpf_prog_array *p; mutex_lock(&mtx); p = rcu_dereference_protected(progs, lockdep_is_held(&mtx)); bpf_prog_array_length(p); bpf_prog_array_copy_to_user(p, ...); bpf_prog_array_delete_safe(p, ...); bpf_prog_array_copy_info(p, ...); bpf_prog_array_copy(p, ...); bpf_prog_array_free(p); mutex_unlock(&mtx); No functional changes! rcu_dereference_protected with lockdep_is_held should catch any cases where we update prog array without a mutex (I've looked at existing call sites and I think we hold a mutex everywhere). Motivation is to fix sparse warnings: kernel/bpf/core.c:1803:9: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces) kernel/bpf/core.c:1803:9: expected struct callback_head *head kernel/bpf/core.c:1803:9: got struct callback_head [noderef] <asn:4> * kernel/bpf/core.c:1877:44: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) kernel/bpf/core.c:1877:44: expected struct bpf_prog_array_item *item kernel/bpf/core.c:1877:44: got struct bpf_prog_array_item [noderef] <asn:4> * kernel/bpf/core.c:1901:26: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) kernel/bpf/core.c:1901:26: expected struct bpf_prog_array_item *existing kernel/bpf/core.c:1901:26: got struct bpf_prog_array_item [noderef] <asn:4> * kernel/bpf/core.c:1935:26: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) kernel/bpf/core.c:1935:26: expected struct bpf_prog_array_item *[assigned] existing kernel/bpf/core.c:1935:26: got struct bpf_prog_array_item [noderef] <asn:4> * v2: * remove comment about potential race; that can't happen because all callers are in rcu-update section Cc: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@google.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> |
