I believe there's still an issue here. Could you please double check
and confirm?

I rebased my locally pending stuff on top of your set and suddenly my
test case breaks. So I did a bisect and it pointed me to this commit
eventually.

Looking at the code, I believe the issue is in above snippet. In the
convert_ctx_accesses() rewrite loop, each time we bpf_patch_insn_single()
a program, the program can grow in size (due to __sk_buff access rewrite,
for example). After rewrite, we do 'i += insn_delta' for adjustment to
process next insn.

However, env->insn_aux_data is alloced under the assumption that the
very initial, pre-verification prog->len doesn't change, right? So in
the above conversion access to env->insn_aux_data[i].ptr_type is off,
since after rewrites, corresponding mappings to ptr_type might not be
related anymore.

I noticed this with direct packet access where suddenly the data vs
data_end test failed and contained some "semi-random" value always
bailing out for me.

Thanks,
Daniel
