bpf: Check PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY in check_helper_mem_access
The commit being fixed was aiming to disallow users from incorrectly obtaining writable pointer to memory that is only meant to be read. This is enforced now using a MEM_RDONLY flag. For instance, in case of global percpu variables, when the BTF type is not struct (e.g. bpf_prog_active), the verifier marks register type as PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY from bpf_this_cpu_ptr or bpf_per_cpu_ptr helpers. However, when passing such pointer to kfunc, global funcs, or BPF helpers, in check_helper_mem_access, there is no expectation MEM_RDONLY flag will be set, hence it is checked as pointer to writable memory. Later, verifier sets up argument type of global func as PTR_TO_MEM | PTR_MAYBE_NULL, so user can use a global func to get around the limitations imposed by this flag. This check will also cover global non-percpu variables that may be introduced in kernel BTF in future. Also, we update the log message for PTR_TO_BUF case to be similar to PTR_TO_MEM case, so that the reason for error is clear to user. Fixes: 34d3a78c681e ("bpf: Make per_cpu_ptr return rdonly PTR_TO_MEM.")
