Discussion around a recently-submitted patch provided historical context for check_refcount_ok [0]. Specifically, the function and its helpers - may_be_acquire_function and arg_type_may_be_refcounted - predate the OBJ_RELEASE type flag and the addition of many more helpers with acquire/release semantics. The purpose of check_refcount_ok is to ensure: 1) Helper doesn't have multiple uses of return reg's ref_obj_id 2) Helper with release semantics only has one arg needing to be released, since that's tracked using meta->ref_obj_id With current verifier, it's safe to remove check_refcount_ok and its helpers. Since addition of OBJ_RELEASE type flag, case 2) has been handled by the arg_type_is_release check in check_func_arg. To ensure case 1) won't result in verifier silently prioritizing one use of ref_obj_id, this patch adds a helper_multiple_ref_obj_use check which fails loudly if a helper passes > 1 test for use of ref_obj_id.

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.
