From: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <memxor@gmail.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v7.3-rc2 commit d05524794240b52fdc3b6c1220dd05505715824d category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/19783 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- bpf_sys_bpf() executes the bpf(2) syscall body, which can take mutexes, allocate with GFP_KERNEL, and wait for an RCU grace period. bpf_sys_close() reaches close_fd() and filp_close(), which can sleep as well. Both helpers are limited to BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL, whose main program is sleepable. That does not make every callback sleepable: a syscall program can register a bpf_timer callback, and the verifier checks that callback in a non-sleepable context while retaining the syscall helper set. Without .might_sleep on the prototypes, such a callback can invoke bpf_sys_bpf() from hrtimer softirq context and trigger a scheduling-while-atomic failure. bpf_sys_close() is exposed through the same missing context check. Set .might_sleep on both prototypes so the existing helper-context check rejects them from timer callbacks and other atomic regions. Calls from the sleepable main body remain valid. Fixes: 79a7f8bdb159 ("bpf: Introduce bpf_sys_bpf() helper and program type.") Fixes: 3abea089246f ("bpf: Add bpf_sys_close() helper.")
