Subject: [RFC PATCH v8 03/20] bpf: Allow struct_ops prog to return referenced kptr
This patch allows a struct_ops program to return a referenced kptr
if the struct_ops member has a pointer return type. To make sure the
pointer returned to kernel is valid, it needs to be referenced and
originally comes from the kernel. That is, it should be acquired
through kfuncs or struct_ops "ref_acquried" arguments, but not allocated
locally. Besides, null pointer is allowed. Therefore, kernel caller
of the struct_ops function consuming the pointer needs to take care of
the potential null pointer.
The first use case will be Qdisc_ops::dequeue, where a qdisc returns a
pointer to the skb to be dequeued.
To achieve this, we first allow a reference object to leak through return
if it is in the return register and the type matches the return type of the
function. Then, we check whether the pointer to-be-returned is valid in
check_return_code().
