Pull bpf fixes from Alexei Starovoitov:
"This mainly contains verifier fixes that address bugs reported by
Nicholas Carlini.

- Fix incorrect non-NULL inference in pointer comparisons: pointer
types that may be NULL at runtime, pointers with unbounded offsets,
JMP32 comparisons with zero, and imprecise zero registers (Eduard
Zingerman)

- Fix precision tracking for half-dead zero spills, ld_abs/ld_ind
implicit subprog exit, bpf_loop() callbacks, linked scalar ids and
NULL call arguments (Eduard Zingerman)

- Reject BPF_PSEUDO_FUNC reference to the main program, fix zero
extension of arena 32-bit cmpxchg, don't rewrite bpf_fastcall
patterns entered by a jump (Eduard Zingerman)

- Fix percpu map update and BPF_F_CPU validation with sparse CPU IDs
(Hui Su)

- Fix NULL-ptr-derefs in bpf_snprintf_btf() for void and VAR types,
and reject key-less BTF for hash maps (Jiayuan Chen)

- Various fixes (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi):
- Fix out-of-bounds access in disassembler on invalid LDSX
instruction
- mark siginfo of signal tracepoints as scalar and
sched_process_wait argument as nullable
- mark faultable stack helpers as sleepable
- reject tail calls and legacy packet loads from callbacks
- enforce rbtree callback lock restrictions for resilient locks
- require MEM_PERCPU for percpu kptr stores
- clear NON_OWN_REF after RCU protection ends
- mark NULL kptr stores precise
- preserve inner map identity in callback frames
- reject non-scalar bpf_loop() iteration counts

- Fix trampoline allocation slowdown on x86 by using
EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA (Mike Rapoport)

- Keep bpf_refcount_acquire() nullable for borrowed RCU kptrs and
reject untrusted allocated-object pointers (Ning Ding)

- Fix special fields handling in recycled rhtab elements (Nuoqi Gui,
Yuan Chen)"

Merge branch 'bpf-fix-null-ptr-derefs-when-showing-a-void-btf-type'

Jiayuan Chen says:

====================
bpf: Fix NULL-ptr-derefs when showing a void BTF type

This series fixes three NULL-ptr-derefs in BTF handling.

Patch 1 handles the syzbot report. A key-less BTF (btf_key_type_id == 0) used
to be rejected for hash maps, until htab and rhtab gained a ->map_check_btf
(to register a dtor) that does not look at the key, so a key-less hash map is
now accepted. Dumping it through bpffs feeds the key type_id 0 into
btf_type_seq_show() and NULL-derefs in btf_type_show(). Reject it again.

Patches 2 and 3 fix two related, pre-existing crashes reachable via
bpf_snprintf_btf(), which renders a type_id taken straight from the BPF
program against the vmlinux BTF. A "const void" (a modifier resolving to
void) NULL-derefs in btf_modifier_show() - void has no ->show op; a
BTF_KIND_VAR NULL-derefs in btf_var_show() - the vmlinux base BTF has no
resolved_ids. Patch 2 falls back to btf_df_show(), the "<unsupported kind:N>"
placeholder already used for FWD/FUNC/FLOAT/DECL_TAG; patch 3 resolves the
var's type directly, mirroring the existing guard in btf_modifier_show().

Patches 4 and 5 add selftests. Patch 4 checks a key-less hash and rhash map is
rejected at creation. Patch 5 extends the snprintf_btf test to render a
"const void" and a BTF_KIND_VAR from the vmlinux BTF and checks they resolve
without crashing.

v3 -> v4: Drop the pin-and-read reproducer from the key-less map test, fold
the void/VAR test into the existing snprintf_btf test, and simplify patch 2's
wording (review comments).

v2 -> v3: Fold in a third fix for the same class of bug, btf_var_show(),
reported while reviewing v2. Address review comments (Fixes attribution,
verbatim syzbot trace, skip instead of fail).

v1 -> v2: AI reported a pre-exist issue. Let's fold it in this series.

selftests/bpf: Add test for showing a void BTF type

Extend the snprintf_btf test with type_ids from the vmlinux BTF that
used to NULL-deref in the BTF show path: a "const void", checked to
render the "<unsupported kind:0>" placeholder, and a BTF_KIND_VAR,
checked to resolve and render without error.

The program renders from its own buffer and the test picks a VAR whose
resolved type fits it, so the render stays in bounds.
