    bpf: Support kptrs in local storage maps · 9db44fdd
    Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi authored
    Enable support for kptrs in local storage maps by wiring up the freeing
    of these kptrs from map value. Freeing of bpf_local_storage_map is only
    delayed in case there are special fields, therefore bpf_selem_free_*
    path can also only dereference smap safely in that case. This is
    recorded using a bool utilizing a hole in bpF_local_storage_elem. It
    could have been tagged in the pointer value smap using the lowest bit
    (since alignment > 1), but since there was already a hole I went with
    the simpler option. Only the map structure freeing is delayed using RCU
    barriers, as the buckets aren't used when selem is being freed, so they
    can be freed once all readers of the bucket lists can no longer access
    it.
