In previous selftests/bpf patch, we have
p = bpf_percpu_obj_new(struct val_t);
if (!p)
goto out;
p1 = bpf_kptr_xchg(&e->pc, p);
if (p1) {
/* race condition */
bpf_percpu_obj_drop(p1);
}
p = e->pc;
if (!p)
goto out;
After bpf_kptr_xchg(), we need to re-read e->pc into 'p'.
This is due to that the second argument of bpf_kptr_xchg() is marked
OBJ_RELEASE and it will be marked as invalid after the call.
So after bpf_kptr_xchg(), 'p' is an unknown scalar,
and the bpf program needs to reread from the map value.
This patch checks if the 'p' has type MEM_ALLOC and MEM_PERCPU,
and if 'p' is RCU protected. If this is the case, 'p' can be marked
as MEM_RCU. MEM_ALLOC needs to be removed since 'p' is not
an owning reference any more. Such a change makes re-read
from the map value unnecessary.
Note that re-reading 'e->pc' after bpf_kptr_xchg() might get
a different value from 'p' if immediately before 'p = e->pc',
another cpu may do another bpf_kptr_xchg() and swap in another value
into 'e->pc'. If this is the case, then 'p = e->pc' may
get either 'p' or another value, and race condition already exists.
So removing direct re-reading seems fine too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
