sk_msg and ULP frameworks override protocol callbacks pointer in
sk->sk_prot, while tcp accesses it locklessly when cloning the listening
socket, that is with neither sk_lock nor sk_callback_lock held.

Once we enable use of listening sockets with sockmap (and hence sk_msg),
there will be shared access to sk->sk_prot if socket is getting cloned
while being inserted/deleted to/from the sockmap from another CPU:

Read side:

tcp_v4_rcv
  sk = __inet_lookup_skb(...)
  tcp_check_req(sk)
    inet_csk(sk)->icsk_af_ops->syn_recv_sock
      tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock
        tcp_create_openreq_child
          inet_csk_clone_lock
            sk_clone_lock
              READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot)

Write side:

sock_map_ops->map_update_elem
  sock_map_update_elem
    sock_map_update_common
      sock_map_link_no_progs
        tcp_bpf_init
          tcp_bpf_update_sk_prot
            sk_psock_update_proto
              WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, ops)

sock_map_ops->map_delete_elem
  sock_map_delete_elem
    __sock_map_delete
     sock_map_unref
       sk_psock_put
         sk_psock_drop
           sk_psock_restore_proto
             tcp_update_ulp
               WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, proto)

Mark the shared access with READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE annotations.

Note there are dozens of calls like

if (sk->sk_prot->handler)
    sk->sk_prot->handler(...);

Some of them being done lockless.

I know it is painful, but presumably we need

const struct proto *ops = READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot);

if (ops->handler)
    ops->handler(....);
Yikes! That will be quite an audit. Thank you for taking a look.

Now I think I understand what John had in mind when asking for pushing
these annotations to the bpf tree as well [0].

Considering these are lacking today, can I do it as a follow up?
