From 2b97956af60810cd382b86b9ce9aea421b889861 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nuoqi Gui Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 12:41:55 +0200 Subject: selftests/bpf: Test rhtab kptr cancellation semantics Resizable hash-map updates and deletions must not perform full special-field destruction in their caller context. In particular, a referenced kptr must remain attached to the allocation until the memory allocator destructor can release it safely. Add separate coverage for both affected paths. The update test stores a task kptr, replaces the ordinary value bytes with BPF_EXIST, and verifies that the kptr survived. The delete test removes an element and exchanges its kptr through the still-valid map-value pointer before the allocation is reclaimed. Both cases observe a NULL kptr when rhtab uses bpf_obj_free_fields(). They recover and release the reference after rhtab switches to cancellation semantics.
