The fix in commit abad3d0bad ("bpf: Fix oob access in cgroup local
storage") is still incomplete. The prog-array compatibility check
treats a program with no cgroup storage as compatible with any stored
storage cookie. This allows a storage-less program to bridge a tail
call chain between an entry program and a storage-using callee even
though cgroup local storage at runtime still follows the caller's
context, that is, A -> B(no storage) -> C(storage) path.
Requiring exact cookie equality would break the legitimate case of a
storage-less leaf program being tail called from a storage-using one.
Instead, only accept a zero storage cookie if the program cannot
perform tail calls itself. This keeps A -> B(no storage) working
while rejecting the A -> B(no storage) -> C(storage) bridge.

This makes BPF arena memory directly dereferenceable from kernel code

that an arch fault hook installs into empty PTEs on kernel-side faults,

through the program's BPF stream.

v1 (RFC): https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260427105109.2554518-1-tj@kernel.org
Motivation
----------
sched_ext's ops_cid.set_cmask() hands the BPF scheduler a struct scx_cmask
*. The kernel translates a kernel cpumask to a cmask, but it had no way to
write into the arena, so the cmask lived in kernel memory and was passed as
a trusted pointer. BPF cmask helpers all operate on arena cmasks though, so
the BPF side had to word-by-word probe-read the kernel cmask into an arena
cmask via cmask_copy_from_kernel() before any helper could touch it. It
works, but is clumsy.
The shape isn't unique to set_cmask. Sub-scheduler support is on the way and
more sched_ext callbacks will want to pass structured data to BPF. Anywhere
a kfunc or struct_ops callback wants to hand a struct to a BPF program,
arena residence is the natural answer.
Approach
--------
Each arena gets a per-arena scratch page. Arenas stay sparsely mapped as
today - PTEs are populated only for allocated pages. A new arch fault hook
(bpf_arena_handle_page_fault) is wired into x86 page_fault_oops() and arm64
__do_kernel_fault(), after KFENCE. When a kernel-side access faults inside
an arena's kern_vm range, the helper walks the stack to find the BPF program
responsible, range-checks the fault address against prog->aux->arena, and
atomically installs the scratch page into the empty PTE via the new
ptep_try_set() wrapper. The kernel instruction retries and reads/writes the
scratch page. Free paths and map destruction treat scratch as non-owned.
Real allocation refuses to overwrite scratch (apply_range_set_cb returns
-EBUSY). A scratched address stays dead until map destroy, since its
presence means the BPF program has already malfunctioned.
The mechanism is default behavior - no UAPI flag.
What this preserves
-------------------
All the debugging properties of today's sparse-PTE design are preserved:
* BPF programs still fault on unmapped arena accesses. The fault semantics
(instruction retry with rdst = 0) and the violation report through
bpf_streams are unchanged for prog-side accesses.
* The first kernel-side touch of an unmapped address is reported via
bpf_streams the same way as a prog-side fault, with the stack walk
attributing it to the originating prog.
* User-side fault on a never-scratched address still lazy-allocates a real
page (or returns SIGSEGV under BPF_F_SEGV_ON_FAULT). User-side fault on a
scratched address SIGSEGVs.
What changes for the kernel-side caller is just that an unmapped deref no
longer oopses - it retries through the scratch page and emits a violation
report. The same shape today's BPF instruction faults have.

BPF arena usage is becoming more prevalent, but kernel <-> BPF communication
over arena memory is awkward today. Data has to be staged through a trusted
kernel pointer with extra code and copying on the BPF side. While reads
through arena pointers can use a fault-safe helper, writes don't have a good
solution. The in-line alternative would need instruction emulation or asm
fixup labels.
Enable direct kernel-side reads and writes within GUARD_SZ / 2 of any
handed-in arena pointer, without bounds checking. A per-arena scratch page
is installed by the arch fault path into empty arena kernel PTEs - x86 from
page_fault_oops() for not-present faults, arm64 from __do_kernel_fault() for
translation faults, both after the existing exception-table and KFENCE
handling. The faulting instruction retries and the access is also reported
through the program's BPF stream, preserving error reporting.
bpf_prog_find_from_stack() resolves the current BPF program (and its arena)
from the kernel stack - no new bpf_run_ctx state is added. Recovery covers
the 4 GiB arena plus the upper half-guard (GUARD_SZ / 2). The lower
half-guard is excluded because well-behaved kfuncs only access forward from
arena pointers. The kfunc-author contract - access at most GUARD_SZ / 2 past
a handed-in pointer - is documented in Documentation/bpf/kfuncs.rst.
The install is lock-free via ptep_try_set(). On race-loss the winning
installer's PTE is already valid, so the access retry succeeds. The arena
clear path uses ptep_get_and_clear() so installer and clearer race through
atomic accessors. No flush_tlb_kernel_range() afterwards. Stale "not mapped"
entries just cause one extra re-fault, cheaper than a global IPI on every
install.
Scratch exists only to keep the kernel from oopsing on an in-line arena
access. Its presence at a PTE means the BPF program has already
malfunctioned, and the violation is reported through the program's BPF
stream. The only requirement for behavior on a scratched PTE is that the
kernel doesn't crash. In particular, any user-side access through such a PTE
may segfault. The shared scratch page is freed once during map destruction.
BPF instruction faults continue to use the existing JIT exception-table
path. This patch changes only the kernel-text fault path. No UAPI flag is
added. The new behavior is the default.
v2: Use ptep_get_and_clear() in apply_range_clear_cb(). (David)
v3: Stub bpf_arena_handle_page_fault() for !CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL. (lkp)

Remove a redundant stack_arg_cnt check in __bpf_prog_select_runtime()
and start the stack arg loop from index 0 in bpf_fixup_call_args().
Both changes are no-ops that simplify the code:
In __bpf_prog_select_runtime(), the subprog_info[0].stack_arg_cnt
check is unreachable:
- when there is only a main program (no bpf-to-bpf calls),
subprog_info[0].stack_arg_cnt is always 0 because the main
program's arg_cnt is forced to 1
- when bpf-to-bpf calls use stack args and JIT succeeds,
fp->bpf_func is set and this code is skipped
- when JIT fails, bpf_fixup_call_args() rejects the program
before we get to __bpf_prog_select_runtime().
In bpf_fixup_call_args(), starting the loop at i=1 skipped subprog 0,
which is safe since the main program always has arg_cnt=1 and thus
bpf_in_stack_arg_cnt() returns 0. Starting at i=0 removes the need
to reason about this invariant.

Add x86_64 JIT support for BPF functions and kfuncs with more than
5 arguments. The extra arguments are passed through a stack area
addressed by register r11 (BPF_REG_PARAMS) in BPF bytecode,
which the JIT translates to native code.
The JIT follows the x86-64 calling convention for both BPF-to-BPF
and kfunc calls:
- Arg 6 is passed in the R9 register
- Args 7+ are passed on the stack
Incoming arg 6 (BPF r11+8) is translated to a MOV from R9 rather
than a memory load. Incoming args 7+ (BPF r11+16, r11+24, ...) map
directly to [rbp + 16], [rbp + 24], ..., matching the x86-64 stack
layout after CALL + PUSH RBP, so no offset adjustment is needed.
tail_call_reachable is rejected by the verifier and priv_stack is
disabled by the JIT when stack args exist, so R9 is always
available. When BPF bytecode writes to the arg-6 stack slot
(offset -8), the JIT emits a MOV into R9 instead of a memory store.
Outgoing args 7+ are placed at [rsp] in a pre-allocated area below
callee-saved registers, using:
native_off = outgoing_arg_base - outgoing_rsp - bpf_off - 16
The native x86_64 stack layout with stack arguments:
high address
+-------------------------+
| incoming stack arg N | [rbp + 16 + (N-7)*8] (from caller)
| ... |
| incoming stack arg 7 | [rbp + 16]
+-------------------------+

| saved rbp | [rbp]
+-------------------------+

Currently, the BPF instruction set allows bpf-to-bpf calls (or internal
calls, pseudo calls) to use a 32-bit imm field to represent the relative
jump offset.
However, when JIT is disabled or falls back to the interpreter, the
verifier invokes bpf_patch_call_args() to rewrite the call instruction.
In this function, the 32-bit imm is downcast to s16 and stored in the off
field.
void bpf_patch_call_args(struct bpf_insn *insn, u32 stack_depth)
{
stack_depth = max_t(u32, stack_depth, 1);
insn->off = (s16) insn->imm;
insn->imm = interpreters_args[(round_up(stack_depth, 32) / 32) - 1] -
__bpf_call_base_args;
insn->code = BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL_ARGS;
}
If the original imm exceeds the s16 range (i.e., a jump offset greater
than 32767 instructions), this downcast silently truncates the offset,
resulting in an incorrect call target.
Fix this by:
1. In bpf_patch_call_args(), keeping the imm field unchanged and using the
off field to store the index of the interpreter function.
2. In ___bpf_prog_run() for the JMP_CALL_ARGS case, retrieving the
interpreter function pointer from the interpreters_args array using the
off field as the index, and passing the original imm to calculate the
last argument of the interpreter function.
After these changes, the truncation issue is resolved, and __bpf_call_base_args
is also no longer needed and can be removed, which makes the code cleaner.
Performance: In ___bpf_prog_run() for the JMP_CALL_ARGS case, changing the
retrieval of the interpreter function pointer from pointer addition to
direct array indexing improves performance. The possible reason is that the
latter has better instruction-level parallelism. See the v5 discussion [1]
for more details.

To avoid requiring bpftool changes, keep the new imm/off encoding internal
and restore the legacy xlated dump layout in bpf_insn_prepare_dump().
For bpf-to-bpf call offsets that do not fit in s16, export off as 0 instead
of a truncated and misleading value.

The interpreters_args array only accommodates stack depths up to
MAX_BPF_STACK (512 bytes). However, do_misc_fixups() may allow a larger
stack depth if JIT is requested.
If JIT compilation later fails and falls back to the interpreter, the
verifier invokes bpf_patch_call_args() with this oversized stack depth.
This causes a load-time out-of-bounds (OOB) read when calculating the
interpreter function pointer index.
Fix this by changing bpf_patch_call_args() to return an int and explicitly
rejecting the JIT fallback (returning -EINVAL) if the stack depth exceeds
MAX_BPF_STACK.

During the JIT stage, constants blinding rewrites instructions but only
rewrites the private instruction copy of the JITed subprog, leaving the
global env->prog->insnsi and env->insn_aux_data untouched. This causes a
mismatch between subprog instructions and the global state, making it
difficult to use the global data in the JIT.
To avoid this mismatch, and given that all arch-specific JITs already
support constants blinding, move it to the generic verifier code, and
switch to rewrite the global env->prog->insnsi with the global states
adjusted, as other rewrites in the verifier do.
This removes the constants blinding calls in each JIT, which are largely
duplicated code across architectures.
Since constants blinding is only required for JIT, and there are two
JIT entry functions, jit_subprogs() for BPF programs with multiple
subprogs and bpf_prog_select_runtime() for programs with no subprogs,
move the constants blinding invocation into these two functions.
In the verifier path, bpf_patch_insn_data() is used to keep global
verifier auxiliary data in sync with patched instructions. A key
question is whether this global auxiliary data should be restored
on the failure path.
Besides instructions, bpf_patch_insn_data() adjusts:
- prog->aux->poke_tab
- env->insn_array_maps
- env->subprog_info
- env->insn_aux_data
For prog->aux->poke_tab, it is only used by JIT or only meaningful after
JIT succeeds, so it does not need to be restored on the failure path.
For env->insn_array_maps, when JIT fails, programs using insn arrays
are rejected by bpf_insn_array_ready() due to missing JIT addresses.
Hence, env->insn_array_maps is only meaningful for JIT and does not need
to be restored.
For subprog_info, if jit_subprogs fails and CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON
is not enabled, kernel falls back to interpreter. In this case,
env->subprog_info is used to determine subprogram stack depth. So it
must be restored on failure.
For env->insn_aux_data, it is freed by clear_insn_aux_data() at the
end of bpf_check(). Before freeing, clear_insn_aux_data() loops over
env->insn_aux_data to release jump targets recorded in it. The loop
uses env->prog->len as the array length, but this length no longer
matches the actual size of the adjusted env->insn_aux_data array after
constants blinding.
To address it, a simple approach is to keep insn_aux_data as adjusted
after failure, since it will be freed shortly, and record its actual size
for the loop in clear_insn_aux_data(). But since clear_insn_aux_data()
uses the same index to loop over both env->prog->insnsi and env->insn_aux_data,
this approach results in incorrect index for the insnsi array. So an
alternative approach is adopted: clone the original env->insn_aux_data
before blinding and restore it after failure, similar to env->prog.
For classic BPF programs, constants blinding works as before since it
is still invoked from bpf_prog_select_runtime().

When a dev-bound-only BPF program (BPF_F_XDP_DEV_BOUND_ONLY) undergoes
JIT compilation with constant blinding enabled (bpf_jit_harden >= 2),
bpf_jit_blind_constants() clones the program. The original prog is then
freed in bpf_jit_prog_release_other(), which updates aux->prog to point
to the surviving clone, but fails to update offload->prog.
This leaves offload->prog pointing to the freed original program. When
the network namespace is subsequently destroyed, cleanup_net() triggers
bpf_dev_bound_netdev_unregister(), which iterates ondev->progs and calls
__bpf_prog_offload_destroy(offload->prog). Accessing the freed prog
causes a page fault:

but go through the normal JIT path instead of bpf_prog_offload_compile().
This means they are subject to constant blinding's prog clone-and-replace,
while also having offload->prog that must stay in sync.
Fix this by updating offload->prog in bpf_jit_prog_release_other(),
alongside the existing aux->prog update. Both are back-pointers to
the prog that must be kept in sync when the prog is replaced.

Since commit 603b441623 ("bpf: Update the bpf_prog_calc_tag to use
SHA256") made BPF program tags use SHA-256 instead of SHA-1, the header
<crypto/sha1.h> no longer needs to be included. Remove the relevant
inclusions so that they no longer unnecessarily come up in searches for
which kernel code is still using the obsolete SHA-1 algorithm.
Since net/ipv6/addrconf.c was relying on the transitive inclusion of
<crypto/sha1.h> (for an unrelated purpose) via <linux/filter.h>, make it
include <crypto/sha1.h> explicitly in order to keep that file building.

The BPF interpreter's signed 32-bit division and modulo handlers use
the kernel abs() macro on s32 operands. The abs() macro documentation
(include/linux/math.h) explicitly states the result is undefined when
the input is the type minimum. When DST contains S32_MIN (0x80000000),
abs((s32)DST) triggers undefined behavior and returns S32_MIN unchanged
on arm64/x86. This value is then sign-extended to u64 as
0xFFFFFFFF80000000, causing do_div() to compute the wrong result.
The verifier's abstract interpretation (scalar32_min_max_sdiv) computes
the mathematically correct result for range tracking, creating a
verifier/interpreter mismatch that can be exploited for out-of-bounds
map value access.
Introduce abs_s32() which handles S32_MIN correctly by casting to u32
before negating, avoiding signed overflow entirely. Replace all 8
abs((s32)...) call sites in the interpreter's sdiv32/smod32 handlers.
s32 is the only affected case -- the s64 division/modulo handlers do
not use abs().

BPF_ST | BPF_PROBE_MEM32 immediate stores are not handled by
bpf_jit_blind_insn(), allowing user-controlled 32-bit immediates to
survive unblinded into JIT-compiled native code when bpf_jit_harden >= 1.
The root cause is that convert_ctx_accesses() rewrites BPF_ST|BPF_MEM
to BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 for arena pointer stores during verification,
before bpf_jit_blind_constants() runs during JIT compilation. The
blinding switch only matches BPF_ST|BPF_MEM (mode 0x60), not
BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 (mode 0xa0). The instruction falls through
unblinded.
Add BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 cases to bpf_jit_blind_insn() alongside the
existing BPF_ST|BPF_MEM cases. The blinding transformation is identical:
load the blinded immediate into BPF_REG_AX via mov+xor, then convert
the immediate store to a register store (BPF_STX).
The rewritten STX instruction must preserve the BPF_PROBE_MEM32 mode so
the architecture JIT emits the correct arena addressing (R12-based on
x86-64). Cannot use the BPF_STX_MEM() macro here because it hardcodes
BPF_MEM mode; construct the instruction directly instead.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the

Allowing sleepable programs to use tail calls.
Making sure we can't mix sleepable and non-sleepable bpf programs
in tail call map (BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY) and allowing it to be
used in sleepable programs.
Sleepable programs can be preempted and sleep which might bring
new source of race conditions, but both direct and indirect tail
calls should not be affected.
Direct tail calls work by patching direct jump to callee into bpf
caller program, so no problem there. We atomically switch from nop
to jump instruction.
Indirect tail call reads the callee from the map and then jumps to
it. The callee bpf program can't disappear (be released) from the
caller, because it is executed under rcu lock (rcu_read_lock_trace).

BPF programs detect recursion using a per-CPU 'active' flag in struct
bpf_prog. The trampoline currently sets/clears this flag with atomic
operations.
On some arm64 platforms (e.g., Neoverse V2 with LSE), per-CPU atomic
operations are relatively slow. Unlike x86_64 - where per-CPU updates
can avoid cross-core atomicity, arm64 LSE atomics are always atomic
across all cores, which is unnecessary overhead for strictly per-CPU
state.
This patch removes atomics from the recursion detection path on arm64 by
changing 'active' to a per-CPU array of four u8 counters, one per
context: {NMI, hard-irq, soft-irq, normal}. The running context uses a
non-atomic increment/decrement on its element. After increment,
recursion is detected by reading the array as a u32 and verifying that
only the expected element changed; any change in another element
indicates inter-context recursion, and a value > 1 in the same element
indicates same-context recursion.
For example, starting from {0,0,0,0}, a normal-context trigger changes
the array to {0,0,0,1}. If an NMI arrives on the same CPU and triggers
the program, the array becomes {1,0,0,1}. When the NMI context checks
the u32 against the expected mask for normal (0x00000001), it observes
0x01000001 and correctly reports recursion. Same-context recursion is
detected analogously.

Add a new BPF command BPF_PROG_ASSOC_STRUCT_OPS to allow associating
a BPF program with a struct_ops map. This command takes a file
descriptor of a struct_ops map and a BPF program and set
prog->aux->st_ops_assoc to the kdata of the struct_ops map.
The command does not accept a struct_ops program nor a non-struct_ops
map. Programs of a struct_ops map is automatically associated with the
map during map update. If a program is shared between two struct_ops
maps, prog->aux->st_ops_assoc will be poisoned to indicate that the
associated struct_ops is ambiguous. The pointer, once poisoned, cannot
be reset since we have lost track of associated struct_ops. For other
program types, the associated struct_ops map, once set, cannot be
changed later. This restriction may be lifted in the future if there is
a use case.
A kernel helper bpf_prog_get_assoc_struct_ops() can be used to retrieve
the associated struct_ops pointer. The returned pointer, if not NULL, is
guaranteed to be valid and point to a fully updated struct_ops struct.
For struct_ops program reused in multiple struct_ops map, the return
will be NULL.
prog->aux->st_ops_assoc is protected by bumping the refcount for
non-struct_ops programs and RCU for struct_ops programs. Since it would
be inefficient to track programs associated with a struct_ops map, every
non-struct_ops program will bump the refcount of the map to make sure
st_ops_assoc stays valid. For a struct_ops program, it is protected by
RCU as map_free will wait for an RCU grace period before disassociating
the program with the map. The helper must be called in BPF program
context or RCU read-side critical section.
struct_ops implementers should note that the struct_ops returned may not
be initialized nor attached yet. The struct_ops implementer will be
responsible for tracking and checking the state of the associated
struct_ops map if the use case expects an initialized or attached
struct_ops.

In the origin logic, the bpf_arch_text_poke() assume that the old and new
instructions have the same opcode. However, they can have different opcode
if we want to replace a "call" insn with a "jmp" insn.
Therefore, add the new function parameter "old_t" along with the "new_t",
which are used to indicate the old and new poke type. Meanwhile, adjust
the implement of bpf_arch_text_poke() for all the archs.
"BPF_MOD_NOP" is added to make the code more readable. In
bpf_arch_text_poke(), we still check if the new and old address is NULL to
determine if nop insn should be used, which I think is more safe.

Add support for a new instruction
BPF_JMP|BPF_X|BPF_JA, SRC=0, DST=Rx, off=0, imm=0
which does an indirect jump to a location stored in Rx. The register
Rx should have type PTR_TO_INSN. This new type assures that the Rx
register contains a value (or a range of values) loaded from a
correct jump table – map of type instruction array.
For example, for a C switch LLVM will generate the following code:
0: r3 = r1 # "switch (r3)"
1: if r3 > 0x13 goto +0x666 # check r3 boundaries
2: r3 <<= 0x3 # adjust to an index in array of addresses
3: r1 = 0xbeef ll # r1 is PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE, r1->map_ptr=M
5: r1 += r3 # r1 inherits boundaries from r3
6: r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0x0) # r1 now has type INSN_TO_PTR
7: gotox r1 # jit will generate proper code
Here the gotox instruction corresponds to one particular map. This is
possible however to have a gotox instruction which can be loaded from
different maps, e.g.
0: r1 &= 0x1
1: r2 <<= 0x3
2: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_1
4: r3 += r2
5: if r1 == 0x0 goto +0x4
6: r1 <<= 0x3
7: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_2
9: r3 += r1
A: r1 = *(u64 *)(r3 + 0x0)
B: gotox r1 # jump to target loaded from M_1 or M_2
During check_cfg stage the verifier will collect all the maps which
point to inside the subprog being verified. When building the config,
the high 16 bytes of the insn_state are used, so this patch
(theoretically) supports jump tables of up to 2^16 slots.
During the later stage, in check_indirect_jump, it is checked that
the register Rx was loaded from a particular instruction array.

Yinhao et al. recently reported:
Our fuzzer tool discovered an uninitialized pointer issue in the
bpf_prog_test_run_xdp() function within the Linux kernel's BPF subsystem.
This leads to a NULL pointer dereference when a BPF program attempts to
deference the txq member of struct xdp_buff object.
The test initializes two programs of BPF_PROG_TYPE_XDP: progA acts as the
entry point for bpf_prog_test_run_xdp() and its expected_attach_type can
neither be of be BPF_XDP_DEVMAP nor BPF_XDP_CPUMAP. progA calls into a slot
of a tailcall map it owns. progB's expected_attach_type must be BPF_XDP_DEVMAP
to pass xdp_is_valid_access() validation. The program returns struct xdp_md's
egress_ifindex, and the latter is only allowed to be accessed under mentioned
expected_attach_type. progB is then inserted into the tailcall which progA
calls.
The underlying issue goes beyond XDP though. Another example are programs
of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR. sock_addr_is_valid_access() as well
as sock_addr_func_proto() have different logic depending on the programs'
expected_attach_type. Similarly, a program attached to BPF_CGROUP_INET4_GETPEERNAME
should not be allowed doing a tailcall into a program which calls bpf_bind()
out of BPF which is only enabled for BPF_CGROUP_INET4_CONNECT.
In short, specifying expected_attach_type allows to open up additional
functionality or restrictions beyond what the basic bpf_prog_type enables.
The use of tailcalls must not violate these constraints. Fix it by enforcing
expected_attach_type in __bpf_prog_map_compatible().
Note that we only enforce this for tailcall maps, but not for BPF devmaps or
cpumaps: There, the programs are invoked through dev_map_bpf_prog_run*() and
cpu_map_bpf_prog_run*() which set up a new environment / context and therefore
these situations are not prone to this issue.

Lonial reported that an out-of-bounds access in cgroup local storage
can be crafted via tail calls. Given two programs each utilizing a
cgroup local storage with a different value size, and one program
doing a tail call into the other. The verifier will validate each of
the indivial programs just fine. However, in the runtime context
the bpf_cg_run_ctx holds an bpf_prog_array_item which contains the
BPF program as well as any cgroup local storage flavor the program
uses. Helpers such as bpf_get_local_storage() pick this up from the
runtime context:
ctx = container_of(current->bpf_ctx, struct bpf_cg_run_ctx, run_ctx);
storage = ctx->prog_item->cgroup_storage[stype];
if (stype == BPF_CGROUP_STORAGE_SHARED)
ptr = &READ_ONCE(storage->buf)->data[0];
else
ptr = this_cpu_ptr(storage->percpu_buf);
For the second program which was called from the originally attached
one, this means bpf_get_local_storage() will pick up the former
program's map, not its own. With mismatching sizes, this can result
in an unintended out-of-bounds access.
To fix this issue, we need to extend bpf_map_owner with an array of
storage_cookie[] to match on i) the exact maps from the original
program if the second program was using bpf_get_local_storage(), or
ii) allow the tail call combination if the second program was not
using any of the cgroup local storage maps.

Given this is only relevant for BPF tail call maps, it is adding up space
and penalizing other map types. We also need to extend this with further

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
- Remove usermode driver (UMD) framework (Thomas Weißschuh)
- Introduce Strongly Connected Component (SCC) in the verifier to
detect loops and refine register liveness (Eduard Zingerman)
- Allow 'void *' cast using bpf_rdonly_cast() and corresponding
'__arg_untrusted' for global function parameters (Eduard Zingerman)
- Improve precision for BPF_ADD and BPF_SUB operations in the verifier
(Harishankar Vishwanathan)
- Teach the verifier that constant pointer to a map cannot be NULL
(Ihor Solodrai)
- Introduce BPF streams for error reporting of various conditions
detected by BPF runtime (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
- Teach the verifier to insert runtime speculation barrier (lfence on
x86) to mitigate speculative execution instead of rejecting the
programs (Luis Gerhorst)
- Various improvements for 'veristat' (Mykyta Yatsenko)
- For CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL config warn on internal verifier errors to
improve bug detection by syzbot (Paul Chaignon)
- Support BPF private stack on arm64 (Puranjay Mohan)
- Introduce bpf_cgroup_read_xattr() kfunc to read xattr of cgroup's
node (Song Liu)
- Introduce kfuncs for read-only string opreations (Viktor Malik)
- Implement show_fdinfo() for bpf_links (Tao Chen)
- Reduce verifier's stack consumption (Yonghong Song)
- Implement mprog API for cgroup-bpf programs (Yonghong Song)
