Alexei Starovoitov 267a6e4e78 Merge branch 'fix __retval() being always ignored'
Eduard Zingerman says:

====================

Florian Westphal found a bug in test_loader.c processing of __retval tag.
Because of this bug the function test_loader.c:do_prog_test_run()
never executed and all __retval test tags were ignored. See [1].

Fix for this bug uncovers two additional bugs:
- During test_verifier tests migration to inline assembly (see [2])
  I missed the fact that some tests require maps to contain mock values;
- Some issue with a new refcounted_kptr test, which causes kernel to
  produce dead lock and refcount saturation warnings when subject to
  libbpf's bpf_test_run_opts().

This series fixes the bug in __retval() processing, and address the
issue with test maps not being populated. The issue in refcounted_kptr
is not addressed, __retval tags in those tests are commented out.

I found that the following tests depend on test maps being populated:
- progs/verifier_array_access.c
- verifier/value_ptr_arith.c (planned for migration to inline assembly)

Given the small amount of these tests I decided to opt for simple
non-generic solution (see patch #4).

README

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.
