From 86fc6ee6e246438d394e41bb7cc210b0fe724872 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexei Starovoitov Date: Wed, 14 Jul 2021 17:54:13 -0700 Subject: bpf: Relax verifier recursion check. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In the following bpf subprogram: static int timer_cb(void *map, void *key, void *value) { bpf_timer_set_callback(.., timer_cb); } the 'timer_cb' is a pointer to a function. ld_imm64 insn is used to carry this pointer. bpf_pseudo_func() returns true for such ld_imm64 insn. Unlike bpf_for_each_map_elem() the bpf_timer_set_callback() is asynchronous. Relax control flow check to allow such "recursion" that is seen as an infinite loop by check_cfg(). The distinction between bpf_for_each_map_elem() the bpf_timer_set_callback() is done in the follow up patch.
