Florian and Eduard reported hard dead lock: [ 58.433327] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x40/0x50 [ 58.433334] btf_put+0x43/0x90 [ 58.433338] bpf_find_btf_id+0x157/0x240 [ 58.433353] btf_parse_fields+0x921/0x11c0 This happens since btf->refcount can be 1 at the time of btf_put() and btf_put() will call btf_free_id() which will try to grab btf_idr_lock and will dead lock. Avoid the issue by doing btf_put() without locking. Fixes:3d78417b60("bpf: Add bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind() helper.") Fixes:1e89106da2("bpf: Add bpf_core_add_cands() and wire it into bpf_core_apply_relo_insn().")

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.
