In verifier.c, fixup_kfunc_call uses struct bpf_insn_aux_data's kptr_struct_meta field to pass information about local kptr types to various helpers and kfuncs at runtime. The recent bpf_refcount series added a few functions to the set that need this information: * bpf_refcount_acquire * Needs to know where the refcount field is in order to increment * Graph collection insert kfuncs: bpf_rbtree_add, bpf_list_push_{front,back} * Were migrated to possibly fail by the bpf_refcount series. If insert fails, the input node is bpf_obj_drop'd. bpf_obj_drop needs the kptr_struct_meta in order to decr refcount and properly free special fields. Unfortunately the verifier handling of collection insert kfuncs was not modified to actually populate kptr_struct_meta. Accordingly, when the node input to those kfuncs is passed to bpf_obj_drop, it is done so without the information necessary to decr refcount. This patch fixes the issue by populating kptr_struct_meta for those kfuncs.

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.
