[PATCH bpf-next v6 2/3] bpf: Avoid faultable build ID reads under mm locks

[Ihor Solodrai <ihor.solodrai@linux.dev>]

Sleepable build ID parsing can block in __kernel_read() [1], so the
stackmap sleepable path must not call it while holding mmap_lock or a
per-VMA read lock.

The issue and the fix are conceptually similar to a recent procfs
patch [2].

Resolve each covered VMA with a stable read-side reference, preferring
lock_vma_under_rcu() and falling back to mmap_read_trylock() only long
enough to acquire the VMA read lock. Take a reference to the backing
file, drop the VMA lock, and then parse the build ID through
(sleepable) build_id_parse_file().

We have to use mmap_read_trylock() (and give up on failure) in this
context because taking mmap_read_lock() is generally unsafe on code
paths reachable from BPF programs [3], and may lead to deadlocks.
