This resolves two problems with attachment of fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm to functions located in modules: 1. The verifier tries to find the address to attach to in kallsyms. This is always done by searching the entire kallsyms, not respecting the module in which the function is located. Such approach causes an incorrect attachment address to be computed if the function to attach to is shadowed by a function of the same name located earlier in kallsyms. 2. If the address to attach to is located in a module, the module reference is only acquired in register_fentry. If the module is unloaded between the place where the address is found (bpf_check_attach_target in the verifier) and register_fentry, it is possible that another module is loaded to the same address which may lead to potential errors. Since the attachment must contain the BTF of the program to attach to, we extract the module from it and search for the function address in the correct module (resolving problem no. 1). Then, the module reference is taken directly in bpf_check_attach_target and stored in the bpf program (in bpf_prog_aux). The reference is only released when the program is unloaded (resolving problem no. 2).

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.
