Consider a verifier state with three acquired references, all with
release_on_unlock = true:
idx 0 1 2
state->refs = [2 4 6]
(with 2, 4, and 6 being the ref ids).
When bpf_spin_unlock is called, process_spin_lock will loop through all
acquired_refs and, for each ref, if it's release_on_unlock, calls
release_reference on it. That function in turn calls
release_reference_state, which removes the reference from state->refs by
swapping the reference state with the last reference state in
refs array and decrements acquired_refs count.
process_spin_lock's loop logic, which is essentially:
for (i = 0; i < state->acquired_refs; i++) {
if (!state->refs[i].release_on_unlock)
continue;
release_reference(state->refs[i].id);
}
will fail to release release_on_unlock references which are swapped from
the end. Running this logic on our example demonstrates:
state->refs = [2 4 6] (start of idx=0 iter)
release state->refs[0] by swapping w/ state->refs[2]
state->refs = [6 4] (start of idx=1)
release state->refs[1], no need to swap as it's the last idx
state->refs = [6] (start of idx=2, loop terminates)
ref_id 6 should have been removed but was skipped.
Fix this by looping from back-to-front, which results in refs that are
candidates for removal being swapped with refs which have already been
examined and kept.
If we modify our initial example such that ref 6 is replaced with ref 7,
which is _not_ release_on_unlock, and loop from the back, we'd see:
state->refs = [2 4 7] (start of idx=2)
state->refs = [2 4 7] (start of idx=1)
state->refs = [2 7] (start of idx=0, refs 7 and 4 swapped)
state->refs = [7] (after idx=0, 7 and 2 swapped, loop terminates)
