In [1], a rcu pointer is considered to be trusted and not null. This is actually not true in some cases. The rcu pointer could be null, and for non-null rcu pointer, it may have reference count of 0. This small patch set fixed this problem. Patch 1 is the kernel fix. Patch 2 adjusted selftests properly. Patch 3 added documentation for newly-introduced KF_RCU flag. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221124053201.2372298-1-yhs@fb.com/ Changelogs: v1 -> v2: - rcu ptr could be NULL. - non_null_rcu_ptr->rcu_field can be marked as MEM_RCU as well. - Adjust the code to avoid existing error message change. ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov --- 1910676cc1ec29fad850448ead0fffdb93fb74b5
