From: Amery Hung <amery.hung@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Allow a struct_ops program to return a referenced kptr if the struct_ops operator's return type is a struct pointer. To make sure the returned pointer continues to be valid in the kernel, several constraints are required: 1) The type of the pointer must matches the return type 2) The pointer originally comes from the kernel (not locally allocated) 3) The pointer is in its unmodified form Implementation wise, a referenced kptr first needs to be allowed to _leak_ in check_reference_leak() if it is in the return register. Then, in check_return_code(), constraints 1-3 are checked. During struct_ops registration, a check is also added to warn about operators with non-struct pointer return. In addition, since the first user, Qdisc_ops::dequeue, allows a NULL pointer to be returned when there is no skb to be dequeued, we will allow a scalar value with value equals to NULL to be returned. In the future when there is a struct_ops user that always expects a valid pointer to be returned from an operator, we may extend tagging to the return value. We can tell the verifier to only allow NULL pointer return if the return value is tagged with MAY_BE_NULL.
