When there are concurrent uref release and bpf timer init operations,
the following sequence diagram is possible. It will break the guarantee
provided by bpf_timer: bpf_timer will still be alive after userspace
application releases or unpins the map. It also will lead to kmemleak
for old kernel version which doesn't release bpf_timer when map is
released.
bpf program X:
bpf_timer_init()
lock timer->lock
read timer->timer as NULL
read map->usercnt != 0
process Y:
close(map_fd)
// put last uref
bpf_map_put_uref()
atomic_dec_and_test(map->usercnt)
array_map_free_timers()
bpf_timer_cancel_and_free()
// just return
read timer->timer is NULL
t = bpf_map_kmalloc_node()
timer->timer = t
unlock timer->lock
Fix the problem by checking map->usercnt after timer->timer is assigned,
so when there are concurrent uref release and bpf timer init, either
bpf_timer_cancel_and_free() from uref release reads a no-NULL timer
or the newly-added atomic64_read() returns a zero usercnt.
Because atomic_dec_and_test(map->usercnt) and READ_ONCE(timer->timer)
in bpf_timer_cancel_and_free() are not protected by a lock, so add
a memory barrier to guarantee the order between map->usercnt and
timer->timer. Also use WRITE_ONCE(timer->timer, x) to match the lockless
read of timer->timer in bpf_timer_cancel_and_free().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
