bpf, arm32: Reject BPF-to-BPF calls and callbacks in the JIT
The ARM32 BPF JIT does not support BPF-to-BPF function calls (BPF_PSEUDO_CALL) or callbacks (BPF_PSEUDO_FUNC), but it does not reject them either. When a program with subprograms is loaded (e.g. libxdp's XDP dispatcher uses __noinline__ subprograms, or any program using callbacks like bpf_loop or bpf_for_each_map_elem), the verifier invokes bpf_jit_subprogs() which calls bpf_int_jit_compile() for each subprogram. For BPF_PSEUDO_CALL, since ARM32 does not reject it, the JIT silently emits code using the wrong address computation: func = __bpf_call_base + imm where imm is a pc-relative subprogram offset, producing a bogus function pointer. For BPF_PSEUDO_FUNC, the ldimm64 handler ignores src_reg and loads the immediate as a normal 64-bit value without error. In both cases, build_body() reports success and a JIT image is allocated. ARM32 lacks the jit_data/extra_pass mechanism needed for the second JIT pass in bpf_jit_subprogs(). On the second pass, bpf_int_jit_compile() performs a full fresh compilation, allocating a new JIT binary and overwriting prog->bpf_func. The first allocation is never freed. bpf_jit_subprogs() then detects the function pointer changed and aborts with -ENOTSUPP, but the original JIT binary has already been leaked. Each program load/unload cycle leaks one JIT binary allocation, as reported by kmemleak: unreferenced object 0xbf0a1000 (size 4096): backtrace: bpf_jit_binary_alloc+0x64/0xfc bpf_int_jit_compile+0x14c/0x348 bpf_jit_subprogs+0x4fc/0xa60 Fix this by rejecting both BPF_PSEUDO_CALL in the BPF_CALL handler and BPF_PSEUDO_FUNC in the BPF_LD_IMM64 handler, falling through to the existing 'notyet' path. This causes build_body() to fail before any JIT binary is allocated, so bpf_int_jit_compile() returns the original program unjitted. bpf_jit_subprogs() then sees !prog->jited and cleanly falls back to the interpreter with no leak.
