1. With CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n static_key_slow_inc() doesn't have any
   protection against key->enabled refcounter overflow.
2. With CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y static_key_slow_inc_cpuslocked()
   still may turn the refcounter negative as (v + 1) may overflow.

key->enabled is indeed a ref-counter as it's documented in multiple
places: top comment in jump_label.h, Documentation/staging/static-keys.rst,
etc.

As -1 is reserved for static key that's in process of being enabled,
functions would break with negative key->enabled refcount:
- for CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n negative return of static_key_count()
  breaks static_key_false(), static_key_true()
- the ref counter may become 0 from negative side by too many
  static_key_slow_inc() calls and lead to use-after-free issues.

These flaws result in that some users have to introduce an additional
mutex and prevent the reference counter from overflowing themselves,
see bpf_enable_runtime_stats() checking the counter against INT_MAX / 2.

Prevent the reference counter overflow by checking if (v + 1) > 0.
Change functions API to return whether the increment was successful.

This looks good to me:

Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>

What is the plan for merging this? I'm assuming it would want to go
through the network tree, but as already noted earlier it depends on a
patch I have in tip/locking/core.

Now I checked, tip/locking/core is *just* that one patch, so it might be
possible to merge that branch and this series into the network tree and
note that during the pull request to Linus.

Thank you, Peter!

I initially thought it has to go through tip trees because of the
dependence, but as you say it's just one patch.

I was also asked by Jakub on v4 to wait for Eric's Ack/Review, so once I
get a go from him, I will send all 6 patches for inclusion into -net
tree, if that will be in time before the merge window.

Thanks again for the review and ack,
          Dmitry

Looks like we're all set on the networking side (thanks Eric!!)

Should I pull Peter's branch? Or you want to just resent a patch Peter
already queued. A bit of an unusual situation..

Thanks!

Either way would work for me.
I can send it in a couple of hours if you prefer instead of pulling the branch.

Thank you,

I prefer to pull, seems safer in case Peter does get another patch.

It's this one, right?

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/log/?h=locking/core

I'll pulled, I'll push out once the build is done.

It is the correct one, yes.
