Merge branch 'fix __retval() being always ignored'
Eduard Zingerman says: ==================== Florian Westphal found a bug in test_loader.c processing of __retval tag. Because of this bug the function test_loader.c:do_prog_test_run() never executed and all __retval test tags were ignored. See [1]. Fix for this bug uncovers two additional bugs: - During test_verifier tests migration to inline assembly (see [2]) I missed the fact that some tests require maps to contain mock values; - Some issue with a new refcounted_kptr test, which causes kernel to produce dead lock and refcount saturation warnings when subject to libbpf's bpf_test_run_opts(). This series fixes the bug in __retval() processing, and address the issue with test maps not being populated. The issue in refcounted_kptr is not addressed, __retval tags in those tests are commented out. I found that the following tests depend on test maps being populated: - progs/verifier_array_access.c - verifier/value_ptr_arith.c (planned for migration to inline assembly) Given the small amount of these tests I decided to opt for simple non-generic solution (see patch #4).
