The commit being fixed introduced a hunk into check_func_arg_reg_off that bypasses reg->off == 0 enforcement when offset points to a graph node or root. This might possibly be done for treating bpf_rbtree_remove and others as KF_RELEASE and then later check correct reg->off in helper argument checks. But this is not the case, those helpers are already not KF_RELEASE and permit non-zero reg->off and verify it later to match the subobject in BTF type. However, this logic leads to bpf_obj_drop permitting free of register arguments with non-zero offset when they point to a graph root or node within them, which is not ok. For instance: struct foo { int i; int j; struct bpf_rb_node node; }; struct foo *f = bpf_obj_new(typeof(*f)); if (!f) ... bpf_obj_drop(f); // OK bpf_obj_drop(&f->i); // still ok from verifier PoV bpf_obj_drop(&f->node); // Not OK, but permitted right now Fix this by dropping the whole part of code altogether.
