Linux kernel stable tree
4cc8c50c9a
Currently we cannot pass the pointer returned by iter next method as argument to KF_TRUSTED_ARGS or KF_RCU kfuncs, because the pointer returned by iter next method is not "valid". This patch sets the pointer returned by iter next method to be valid. This is based on the fact that if the iterator is implemented correctly, then the pointer returned from the iter next method should be valid. This does not make NULL pointer valid. If the iter next method has KF_RET_NULL flag, then the verifier will ask the ebpf program to check NULL pointer. KF_RCU_PROTECTED iterator is a special case, the pointer returned by iter next method should only be valid within RCU critical section, so it should be with MEM_RCU, not PTR_TRUSTED. Another special case is bpf_iter_num_next, which returns a pointer with base type PTR_TO_MEM. PTR_TO_MEM should not be combined with type flag PTR_TRUSTED (PTR_TO_MEM already means the pointer is valid). The pointer returned by iter next method of other types of iterators is with PTR_TRUSTED. In addition, this patch adds get_iter_from_state to help us get the current iterator from the current state.

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 reStructuredText 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.
