Subject: [PATCH] bpf: support deferring bpf_link dealloc to after RCU grace
 period

BPF link for some program types is passed as a "context" which can be
used by those BPF programs to look up additional information. E.g., for
multi-kprobes and multi-uprobes, link is used to fetch BPF cookie values.

Because of this runtime dependency, when bpf_link refcnt drops to zero
there could still be active BPF programs running accessing link data.

This patch adds generic support to defer bpf_link dealloc callback to
after RCU GP, if requested. This is done by exposing two different
deallocation callbacks, one synchronous and one deferred. If deferred
one is provided, bpf_link_free() will schedule dealloc_deferred()
callback to happen after RCU GP.

BPF is using two flavors of RCU: "classic" non-sleepable one and RCU
tasks trace one. The latter is used when sleepable BPF programs are
used. bpf_link_free() accommodates that by checking underlying BPF
program's sleepable flag, and goes either through normal RCU GP only for
non-sleepable, or through RCU tasks trace GP *and* then normal RCU GP
(taking into account rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() optimization), if BPF
program is sleepable.

We use this for multi-kprobe and multi-uprobe links, which dereference
link during program run. We also preventively switch raw_tp link to use
deferred dealloc callback, as upcoming changes in bpf-next tree expose
raw_tp link data (specifically, cookie value) to BPF program at runtime
as well.

[PATCH 6.6.y 1/2] bpf: put uprobe link's path and task in release callback

[Andrii Nakryiko]

There is no need to delay putting either path or task to deallocation
step. It can be done right after bpf_uprobe_unregister. Between release
and dealloc, there could be still some running BPF programs, but they
don't access either task or path, only data in link->uprobes, so it is
safe to do.

On the other hand, doing path_put() in dealloc callback makes this
dealloc sleepable because path_put() itself might sleep. Which is
problematic due to the need to call uprobe's dealloc through call_rcu(),
which is what is done in the next bug fix patch. So solve the problem by
releasing these resources early.
