Yan Zhai reported a BPF prog could trigger a null-ptr-deref [0] in trace_kfree_skb if the prog does not check if rx_sk is NULL. Commit c53795d48ee8 ("net: add rx_sk to trace_kfree_skb") added rx_sk to trace_kfree_skb, but rx_sk is optional and could be NULL. Let's add kfree_skb to raw_tp_null_args[] to let the BPF verifier validate such a prog and prevent the issue. Now we fail to load such a prog: libbpf: prog 'drop': -- BEGIN PROG LOAD LOG -- 0: R1=ctx() R10=fp0 ; int BPF_PROG(drop, struct sk_buff *skb, void *location, @ kfree_skb_sk_null.bpf.c:21 0: (79) r3 = *(u64 *)(r1 +24) func 'kfree_skb' arg3 has btf_id 5253 type STRUCT 'sock' 1: R1=ctx() R3_w=trusted_ptr_or_null_sock(id=1) ; bpf_printk("sk: %d, %d\n", sk, sk->__sk_common.skc_family); @ kfree_skb_sk_null.bpf.c:24 1: (69) r4 = *(u16 *)(r3 +16) R3 invalid mem access 'trusted_ptr_or_null_' processed 2 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 0 total_states 0 peak_states 0 mark_read 0 -- END PROG LOAD LOG -- Note this fix requires commit 838a10bd2ebf ("bpf: Augment raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL").
