Subject: [PATCH bpf v2 2/8] selftests/bpf: Reject non-percpu values in percpu kptr fields
Date: Fri,  4 Sep 2026 10:43:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904084325.52250-3-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904084325.52250-1-memxor@gmail.com>

Add verifier coverage for the two ways a non-percpu pointer can be stored
in a __percpu_kptr field: a program-BTF local allocation returned by
bpf_obj_new(), and a referenced kernel-BTF task_struct pointer.

Without the verifier fix, both programs are unexpectedly accepted and the
negative tests fail. Requiring MEM_PERCPU makes both programs fail
verification with the expected invalid-kptr diagnostic.
