BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY maps store instruction pointers in their
ips array, not string data. The map_direct_value_addr callback for
this map type returns the address of the ips array, which is not
suitable for use as a constant string argument.
When a BPF program passes a pointer to an insn_array map value as
ARG_PTR_TO_CONST_STR (e.g., to bpf_snprintf), the verifier's
null-termination check in check_reg_const_str() operates on the
wrong memory region, and at runtime bpf_bprintf_prepare() can read
out of bounds searching for a null terminator.
Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY in check_reg_const_str() since this
map type is not designed to hold string data.

The original implementation added a hack to check_mem_access()
to prevent programs from writing into insn arrays. To get rid
of this hack, enforce BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG on map creation.
Also fix the corresponding selftest, as the error message changes

In commit b4ce5923e780 ("bpf, x86: add new map type: instructions array")
env->used_map was copied to func[i]->aux->used_maps before jitting.
Clear these fields out after jitting such that pointer to freed memory
(env->used_maps is freed later) are not kept in a live data structure.
The reason why the copies were initially added is explained in

Currently, nested rcu critical sections are rejected by the verifier and
rcu_lock state is managed by a boolean variable. Add support for nested
rcu critical sections by make active_rcu_locks a counter similar to
active_preempt_locks. bpf_rcu_read_lock() increments this counter and
bpf_rcu_read_unlock() decrements it, MEM_RCU -> PTR_UNTRUSTED transition
happens when active_rcu_locks drops to 0.

A successful ebpf tail call does not return to the caller, but to the
caller-of-the-caller, often just finishing the ebpf program altogether.
Any restrictions that the verifier needs to take into account - notably
the fact that the tail call might have modified packet pointers - are to
be checked on the caller-of-the-caller. Checking it on the caller made
the verifier refuse perfectly fine programs that would use the packet
pointers after a tail call, which is no problem as this code is only
executed if the tail call was unsuccessful, i.e. nothing happened.
This patch simulates the behavior of a tail call in the verifier. A
conditional jump to the code after the tail call is added for the case
of an unsucessful tail call, and a return to the caller is simulated for
a successful tail call.
For the successful case we assume that the tail call returns an int,
as tail calls are currently only allowed in functions that return and
int. We always assume that the tail call modified the packet pointers,
as we do not know what the tail call did.
For the unsuccessful case we know nothing happened, so we do not need to
add new constraints.
This approach also allows to check other problems that may occur with
tail calls, namely we are now able to check that precision is properly
propagated into subprograms using tail calls, as well as checking the
live slots in such a subprogram.

In [1] Dan Carpenter reported that the following code makes the
Smatch static analyser unhappy:
17904 value = map->ops->map_lookup_elem(map, &i);
17905 if (!value)
17906 return -EINVAL;
--> 17907 items[i - start] = value->xlated_off;
The analyser assumes that the `value` variable may contain an error
and thus it should be properly checked before the dereference.
On practice this will never happen as array maps do not return
error values in map_lookup_elem, but to make the Smatch and other
possible analysers happy this patch adds a formal check.

Metadata about a kfunc call is added to the kfunc_tab in
add_kfunc_call() but the call instruction itself could get removed by
opt_remove_dead_code() later if it is not reachable.
If the call instruction is removed, specialize_kfunc() is never called
for it and the desc->imm in the kfunc_tab is never initialized for this
kfunc call. In this case, sort_kfunc_descs_by_imm_off(env->prog); in
do_misc_fixups() doesn't sort the table correctly.
This is a problem for s390 as its JIT uses this table to find the
addresses for kfuncs, and if this table is not sorted properly, JIT may
fail to find addresses for valid kfunc calls.
This was exposed by:
commit d869d56ca848 ("bpf: verifier: refactor kfunc specialization")
as before this commit, desc->imm was initialised in add_kfunc_call()
which happens before dead code elimination.
Move desc->imm setup down to sort_kfunc_descs_by_imm_off(), this fixes
the problem and also saves us from having the same logic in
add_kfunc_call() and specialize_kfunc().

The usage pattern for widen_imprecise_scalars() looks as follows:
prev_st = find_prev_entry(env, ...);
queued_st = push_stack(...);
widen_imprecise_scalars(env, prev_st, queued_st);
Where prev_st is an ancestor of the queued_st in the explored states
tree. This ancestor is not guaranteed to have same allocated stack
depth as queued_st. E.g. in the following case:
def main():
for i in 1..2:
foo(i) // same callsite, differnt param
def foo(i):
if i == 1:
use 128 bytes of stack
iterator based loop
Here, for a second 'foo' call prev_st->allocated_stack is 128,
while queued_st->allocated_stack is much smaller.
widen_imprecise_scalars() needs to take this into account and avoid
accessing bpf_verifier_state->frame[*]->stack out of bounds.

Add support for a new instruction
BPF_JMP|BPF_X|BPF_JA, SRC=0, DST=Rx, off=0, imm=0
which does an indirect jump to a location stored in Rx. The register
Rx should have type PTR_TO_INSN. This new type assures that the Rx
register contains a value (or a range of values) loaded from a
correct jump table – map of type instruction array.
For example, for a C switch LLVM will generate the following code:
0: r3 = r1 # "switch (r3)"
1: if r3 > 0x13 goto +0x666 # check r3 boundaries
2: r3 <<= 0x3 # adjust to an index in array of addresses
3: r1 = 0xbeef ll # r1 is PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE, r1->map_ptr=M
5: r1 += r3 # r1 inherits boundaries from r3
6: r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0x0) # r1 now has type INSN_TO_PTR
7: gotox r1 # jit will generate proper code
Here the gotox instruction corresponds to one particular map. This is
possible however to have a gotox instruction which can be loaded from
different maps, e.g.
0: r1 &= 0x1
1: r2 <<= 0x3
2: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_1
4: r3 += r2
5: if r1 == 0x0 goto +0x4
6: r1 <<= 0x3
7: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_2
9: r3 += r1
A: r1 = *(u64 *)(r3 + 0x0)
B: gotox r1 # jump to target loaded from M_1 or M_2
During check_cfg stage the verifier will collect all the maps which
point to inside the subprog being verified. When building the config,
the high 16 bytes of the insn_state are used, so this patch
(theoretically) supports jump tables of up to 2^16 slots.
During the later stage, in check_indirect_jump, it is checked that
the register Rx was loaded from a particular instruction array.

On bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) syscall user-supplied BPF programs are
translated by the verifier into "xlated" BPF programs. During this
process the original instructions offsets might be adjusted and/or
individual instructions might be replaced by new sets of instructions,
or deleted.
Add a new BPF map type which is aimed to keep track of how, for a
given program, the original instructions were relocated during the
verification. Also, besides keeping track of the original -> xlated
mapping, make x86 JIT to build the xlated -> jitted mapping for every
instruction listed in an instruction array. This is required for every
future application of instruction arrays: static keys, indirect jumps
and indirect calls.
A map of the BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY type must be created with a u32
keys and value of size 8. The values have different semantics for
userspace and for BPF space. For userspace a value consists of two
u32 values – xlated and jitted offsets. For BPF side the value is
a real pointer to a jitted instruction.
On map creation/initialization, before loading the program, each
element of the map should be initialized to point to an instruction
offset within the program. Before the program load such maps should
be made frozen. After the program verification xlated and jitted
offsets can be read via the bpf(2) syscall.
If a tracked instruction is removed by the verifier, then the xlated
offset is set to (u32)-1 which is considered to be too big for a valid
BPF program offset.
One such a map can, obviously, be used to track one and only one BPF
program. If the verification process was unsuccessful, then the same
map can be re-used to verify the program with a different log level.
However, if the program was loaded fine, then such a map, being
frozen in any case, can't be reused by other programs even after the
program release.
Example. Consider the following original and xlated programs:
Original prog: Xlated prog:
0: r1 = 0x0 0: r1 = 0
1: *(u32 *)(r10 - 0x4) = r1 1: *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1
2: r2 = r10 2: r2 = r10
3: r2 += -0x4 3: r2 += -4
4: r1 = 0x0 ll 4: r1 = map[id:88]
6: call 0x1 6: r1 += 272
7: r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0)
8: if r0 >= 0x1 goto pc+3
9: r0 <<= 3
10: r0 += r1
11: goto pc+1
12: r0 = 0
7: r6 = r0 13: r6 = r0
8: if r6 == 0x0 goto +0x2 14: if r6 == 0x0 goto pc+4
9: call 0x76 15: r0 = 0xffffffff8d2079c0
17: r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +0)
10: *(u64 *)(r6 + 0x0) = r0 18: *(u64 *)(r6 +0) = r0
11: r0 = 0x0 19: r0 = 0x0
12: exit 20: exit
An instruction array map, containing, e.g., instructions [0,4,7,12]
will be translated by the verifier to [0,4,13,20]. A map with
index 5 (the middle of 16-byte instruction) or indexes greater than 12
(outside the program boundaries) would be rejected.
The functionality provided by this patch will be extended in consequent
patches to implement BPF Static Keys, indirect jumps, and indirect calls.

When conditional jumps are performed on the same scalar register
(e.g., r0 <= r0, r0 > r0, r0 < r0), the BPF verifier incorrectly
attempts to adjust the register's min/max bounds. This leads to
invalid range bounds and triggers a BUG warning.
The problematic BPF program:
0: call bpf_get_prandom_u32
1: w8 = 0x80000000
2: r0 &= r8
3: if r0 > r0 goto <exit>
The instruction 3 triggers kernel warning:
3: if r0 > r0 goto <exit>
true_reg1: range bounds violation u64=[0x1, 0x0] s64=[0x1, 0x0] u32=[0x1, 0x0] s32=[0x1, 0x0] var_off=(0x0, 0x0)
true_reg2: const tnum out of sync with range bounds u64=[0x0, 0xffffffffffffffff] s64=[0x8000000000000000, 0x7fffffffffffffff] var_off=(0x0, 0x0)
Comparing a register with itself should not change its bounds and
for most comparison operations, comparing a register with itself has
a known result (e.g., r0 == r0 is always true, r0 < r0 is always false).
Fix this by:
1. Enhance is_scalar_branch_taken() to properly handle branch direction
computation for same register comparisons across all BPF jump operations
2. Adds early return in reg_set_min_max() to avoid bounds adjustment
for unknown branch directions (e.g., BPF_JSET) on the same register
The fix ensures that unnecessary bounds adjustments are skipped, preventing
the verifier bug while maintaining correct branch direction analysis.

The bpf_insn_successors() function is used to return successors
to a BPF instruction. So far, an instruction could have 0, 1 or 2
successors. Prepare the verifier code to introduction of instructions
with more than 2 successors (namely, indirect jumps).
To do this, introduce a new struct, struct bpf_iarray, containing
an array of bpf instruction indexes and make bpf_insn_successors
to return a pointer of that type. The storage for all instructions
is allocated in the env->succ, which holds an array of size 2,

The vma->vm_mm might be NULL and it can be accessed outside of RCU. Thus,
we can mark it as trusted_or_null. With this change, BPF helpers can safely
access vma->vm_mm to retrieve the associated mm_struct from the VMA.
Then we can make policy decision from the VMA.
The "trusted" annotation enables direct access to vma->vm_mm within kfuncs
marked with KF_TRUSTED_ARGS or KF_RCU, such as bpf_task_get_cgroup1() and
bpf_task_under_cgroup(). Conversely, "null" enforcement requires all
callsites using vma->vm_mm to perform NULL checks.
The lsm selftest must be modified because it directly accesses vma->vm_mm
without a NULL pointer check; otherwise it will break due to this
change.
For the VMA based THP policy, the use case is as follows,
@mm = @vma->vm_mm; // vm_area_struct::vm_mm is trusted or null
if (!@mm)
return;
bpf_rcu_read_lock(); // rcu lock must be held to dereference the owner
@owner = @mm->owner; // mm_struct::owner is rcu trusted or null
if (!@owner)
goto out;
@cgroup1 = bpf_task_get_cgroup1(@owner, MEMCG_HIERARCHY_ID);
/* make the decision based on the @cgroup1 attribute */
bpf_cgroup_release(@cgroup1); // release the associated cgroup
out:
bpf_rcu_read_unlock();
PSI memory information can be obtained from the associated cgroup to inform
policy decisions. Since upstream PSI support is currently limited to cgroup
v2, the following example demonstrates cgroup v2 implementation:
@owner = @mm->owner;
if (@owner) {
// @ancestor_cgid is user-configured
@ancestor = bpf_cgroup_from_id(@ancestor_cgid);
if (bpf_task_under_cgroup(@owner, @ancestor)) {
@psi_group = @ancestor->psi;
/* Extract PSI metrics from @psi_group and
* implement policy logic based on the values
*/
}
}
The vma::vm_file can also be marked with __safe_trusted_or_null.
No additional selftests are required since vma->vm_file and vma->vm_mm are
already validated in the existing selftest suite.

When CONFIG_MEMCG is enabled, we can access mm->owner under RCU. The
owner can be NULL. With this change, BPF helpers can safely access
mm->owner to retrieve the associated task from the mm. We can then make
policy decision based on the task attribute.
The typical use case is as follows,
bpf_rcu_read_lock(); // rcu lock must be held for rcu trusted field
@owner = @mm->owner; // mm_struct::owner is rcu trusted or null
if (!@owner)
goto out;
/* Do something based on the task attribute */
out:
bpf_rcu_read_unlock();

Rename the storage_get_func_atomic flag to a more generic non_sleepable
flag that tracks whether a helper or kfunc may be called from a
non-sleepable context. This makes the flag more broadly applicable
beyond just storage_get helpers. See [0] for more context.
The flag is now set unconditionally for all helpers and kfuncs when:
- RCU critical section is active.
- Preemption is disabled.
- IRQs are disabled.
- In a non-sleepable context within a sleepable program (e.g., timer
callbacks), which is indicated by !in_sleepable().
Previously, the flag was only set for storage_get helpers in these
contexts. With this change, it can be used by any code that needs to
differentiate between sleepable and non-sleepable contexts at the
per-instruction level.
The existing usage in do_misc_fixups() for storage_get helpers is
preserved by checking is_storage_get_function() before using the flag.

Fix the BPF verifier to correctly determine the sleepable context of
async callbacks based on the async primitive type rather than the arming
program's context.
The bug is in in_sleepable() which uses OR logic to check if the current
execution context is sleepable. When a sleepable program arms a timer
callback, the callback's state correctly has in_sleepable=false, but
in_sleepable() would still return true due to env->prog->sleepable being
true. This incorrectly allows sleepable helpers like
bpf_copy_from_user() inside timer callbacks when armed from sleepable
programs, even though timer callbacks always execute in non-sleepable
context.
Fix in_sleepable() to rely solely on env->cur_state->in_sleepable, and
initialize state->in_sleepable to env->prog->sleepable in
do_check_common() for the main program entry. This ensures the sleepable
context is properly tracked per verification state rather than being
overridden by the program's sleepability.
The env->cur_state NULL check in in_sleepable() was only needed for
do_misc_fixups() which runs after verification when env->cur_state is
set to NULL. Update do_misc_fixups() to use env->prog->sleepable
directly for the storage_get_function check, and remove the redundant
NULL check from in_sleepable().
Introduce is_async_cb_sleepable() helper to explicitly determine async
callback sleepability based on the primitive type:
- bpf_timer callbacks are never sleepable
- bpf_wq and bpf_task_work callbacks are always sleepable
Add verifier_bug() check to catch unhandled async callback types,
ensuring future additions cannot be silently mishandled. Move the
is_task_work_add_kfunc() forward declaration to the top alongside other
callback-related helpers. We update push_async_cb() to adjust to the new
changes.
At the same time, while simplifying in_sleepable(), we notice a problem
in do_misc_fixups. Fix storage_get helpers to use GFP_ATOMIC when called
from non-sleepable contexts within sleepable programs, such as bpf_timer
callbacks.
Currently, the check in do_misc_fixups assumes that env->prog->sleepable,
previously in_sleepable(env) which only resolved to this check before
last commit, holds across the program's execution, but that is not true.
Instead, the func_atomic bit must be set whenever we see the function
being called in an atomic context. Previously, this is being done when
the helper is invoked in atomic contexts in sleepable programs, we can
simply just set the value to true without doing an in_sleepable() check.
We must also do a standalone in_sleepable() check to handle cases where
the async callback itself is armed from a sleepable program, but is
itself non-sleepable (e.g., timer callback) and invokes such a helper,
thus needing the func_atomic bit to be true for the said call.
Adjust do_misc_fixups() to drop any checks regarding sleepable nature of
the program, and just depend on the func_atomic bit to decide which GFP
flag to pass.

When verifying BPF programs, the check_alu_op() function validates
instructions with ALU operations. The 'offset' field in these
instructions is a signed 16-bit integer.
The existing check 'insn->off > 1' was intended to ensure the offset is
either 0, or 1 for BPF_MOD/BPF_DIV. However, because 'insn->off' is
signed, this check incorrectly accepts all negative values (e.g., -1).
This commit tightens the validation by changing the condition to
'(insn->off != 0 && insn->off != 1)'. This ensures that any value
other than the explicitly permitted 0 and 1 is rejected, hardening the
verifier against malformed BPF programs.

In check_alu_op(), the verifier currently calls check_reg_arg() and
adjust_scalar_min_max_vals() unconditionally for BPF_NEG operations.
However, if the destination register holds a pointer, these scalar
adjustments are unnecessary and potentially incorrect.
This patch adds a check to skip the adjustment logic when the destination
register contains a pointer.

For now, migrate_enable and migrate_disable are global, which makes them
become hotspots in some case. Take BPF for example, the function calling
to migrate_enable and migrate_disable in BPF trampoline can introduce
significant overhead, and following is the 'perf top' of FENTRY's
benchmark (./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bench trig-fentry):
54.63% bpf_prog_2dcccf652aac1793_bench_trigger_fentry [k]
bpf_prog_2dcccf652aac1793_bench_trigger_fentry
10.43% [kernel] [k] migrate_enable
10.07% bpf_trampoline_6442517037 [k] bpf_trampoline_6442517037
8.06% [kernel] [k] __bpf_prog_exit_recur
4.11% libc.so.6 [.] syscall
2.15% [kernel] [k] entry_SYSCALL_64
1.48% [kernel] [k] memchr_inv
1.32% [kernel] [k] fput
1.16% [kernel] [k] _copy_to_user
0.73% [kernel] [k] bpf_prog_test_run_raw_tp
So in this commit, we make migrate_enable/migrate_disable inline to obtain
better performance. The struct rq is defined internally in
kernel/sched/sched.h, and the field "nr_pinned" is accessed in
migrate_enable/migrate_disable, which makes it hard to make them inline.
Alexei Starovoitov suggests to generate the offset of "nr_pinned" in [1],
so we can define the migrate_enable/migrate_disable in
include/linux/sched.h and access "this_rq()->nr_pinned" with
"(void *)this_rq() + RQ_nr_pinned".
The offset of "nr_pinned" is generated in include/generated/rq-offsets.h
by kernel/sched/rq-offsets.c.
Generally speaking, we move the definition of migrate_enable and
migrate_disable to include/linux/sched.h from kernel/sched/core.c. The
calling to __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() is leaved in ___migrate_enable().
The "struct rq" is not available in include/linux/sched.h, so we can't
access the "runqueues" with this_cpu_ptr(), as the compilation will fail
in this_cpu_ptr() -> raw_cpu_ptr() -> __verify_pcpu_ptr():
typeof((ptr) + 0)
So we introduce the this_rq_raw() and access the runqueues with
arch_raw_cpu_ptr/PERCPU_PTR directly.
The variable "runqueues" is not visible in the kernel modules, and export
it is not a good idea. As Peter Zijlstra advised in [2], we define and
export migrate_enable/migrate_disable in kernel/sched/core.c too, and use
them for the modules.

Currently, signed load instructions into arena memory are unsupported.
The compiler is free to generate these, and on GCC-14 we see a
corresponding error when it happens. The hurdle in supporting them is
deciding which unused opcode to use to mark them for the JIT's own
consumption. After much thinking, it appears 0xc0 / BPF_NOSPEC can be
combined with load instructions to identify signed arena loads. Use
this to recognize and JIT them appropriately, and remove the verifier
side limitation on the program if the JIT supports them.

This patch adds necessary plumbing in verifier, syscall and maps to
support handling new kfunc bpf_task_work_schedule and kernel structure
bpf_task_work. The idea is similar to how we already handle bpf_wq and
bpf_timer.
verifier changes validate calls to bpf_task_work_schedule to make sure
it is safe and expected invariants hold.
btf part is required to detect bpf_task_work structure inside map value
and store its offset, which will be used in the next patch to calculate
key and value addresses.
arraymap and hashtab changes are needed to handle freeing of the
bpf_task_work: run code needed to deinitialize it, for example cancel
task_work callback if possible.
The use of bpf_task_work and proper implementation for kfuncs are
introduced in the next patch.

Converting bpf_insn_successors() to use lookup table makes it ~1.5
times faster.
Also remove unnecessary conditionals:
- `idx + 1 < prog->len` is unnecessary because after check_cfg() all
jump targets are guaranteed to be within a program;
- `i == 0 || succ[0] != dst` is unnecessary because any client of
bpf_insn_successors() can handle duplicate edges:
- compute_live_registers()
- compute_scc()
Moving bpf_insn_successors() to liveness.c allows its inlining in
liveness.c:__update_stack_liveness().
Such inlining speeds up __update_stack_liveness() by ~40%.
bpf_insn_successors() is used in both verifier.c and liveness.c.
perf shows such move does not negatively impact users in verifier.c,
as these are executed only once before main varification pass.
Unlike __update_stack_liveness() which can be triggered multiple
times.

REG_LIVE_WRITTEN is recorded for a stack slot.
- Add bpf_mark_stack_read() call at every location mark_reg_read() is
called.
- Both bpf_mark_stack_{read,write}() rely on
env->liveness->cur_instance callchain being in sync with
env->cur_state. It is possible to update env->liveness->cur_instance
every time a mark read/write is called, but that costs a hash table
lookup and is noticeable in the performance profile. Hence, manually
reset env->liveness->cur_instance whenever the verifier changes
env->cur_state call stack:
- call bpf_reset_live_stack_callchain() when the verifier enters a
subprogram;
- call bpf_update_live_stack() when the verifier exits a subprogram
(it implies the reset).
Make sure bpf_update_live_stack() is called for a callchain before
issuing liveness queries. And make sure that bpf_update_live_stack()
is called for any callee callchain first:
- Add bpf_update_live_stack() call at every location that processes
BPF_EXIT:
- exit from a subprogram;
- before pop_stack() call.
This makes sure that bpf_update_live_stack() is called for callee
callchains before caller callchains.
Make sure must_write marks are set to zero for instructions that
do not always access the stack:
- Wrap do_check_insn() with bpf_reset_stack_write_marks() /
bpf_commit_stack_write_marks() calls.
Any calls to bpf_mark_stack_write() are accumulated between this
pair of calls. If no bpf_mark_stack_write() calls were made
it means that the instruction does not access stack (at-least
on the current verification path) and it is important to record
this fact.
Finally, use bpf_live_stack_query_init() / bpf_stack_slot_alive()
to query stack liveness info.
The manual tracking of the correct order for callee/caller
bpf_update_live_stack() calls is a bit convoluted and may warrant some
automation in future revisions.

The next patch would require doing postorder traversal of individual
subprograms. Facilitate this by moving env->cfg.insn_postorder
computation from check_cfg() to a separate pass, as check_cfg()
descends into called subprograms (and it needs to, because of
merge_callee_effects() logic).
env->cfg.insn_postorder is used only by compute_live_registers(),
this function does not track cross subprogram dependencies,
thus the change does not affect it's operation.

Namely, rename the following functions and add prototypes to
bpf_verifier.h:
- find_containing_subprog -> bpf_find_containing_subprog
- insn_successors -> bpf_insn_successors
- calls_callback -> bpf_calls_callback
- fmt_stack_mask -> bpf_fmt_stack_mask

stacksafe() is called in exact == NOT_EXACT mode only for states that
had been porcessed by clean_verifier_states(). The latter replaces
dead stack spills with a series of STACK_INVALID masks. Such masks are
already handled by stacksafe().

Prepare for bpf_reg_state->live field removal by leveraging
insn_aux_data->live_regs_before instead of bpf_reg_state->live in
compute_live_registers(). This is similar to logic in
func_states_equal(). No changes in verification performance for
selftests or sched_ext.

Prepare for bpf_reg_state->live field removal by introducing a
separate flag to track if clean_verifier_state() had been applied to
the state. No functional changes.

Exclusive maps allow maps to only be accessed by program with a
program with a matching hash which is specified in the excl_prog_hash
attr.
For the signing use-case, this allows the trusted loader program
to load the map and verify the integrity
