libbpf: Fix null pointer dereference in btf_dump__free on allocation failure

2025-07-17T16:27:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit aa485e8789d56a4573f7c8d000a182b749eaa64d ]

When btf_dump__new() fails to allocate memory for the internal hashmap
(btf_dump->type_names), it returns an error code. However, the cleanup
function btf_dump__free() does not check if btf_dump->type_names is NULL
before attempting to free it. This leads to a null pointer dereference
when btf_dump__free() is called on a btf_dump object.

libbpf: Use proper errno value in nlattr

2025-06-27T10:04:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit fd5fd538a1f4b34cee6823ba0ddda2f7a55aca96 ]

Return value of the validate_nla() function can be propagated all the
way up to users of libbpf API. In case of error this libbpf version
of validate_nla returns -1 which will be seen as -EPERM from user's
point of view. Instead, return a more reasonable -EINVAL.

libbpf: Fix out-of-bound read

2025-06-04T12:37:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit 236d3910117e9f97ebf75e511d8bcc950f1a4e5f ]

In `set_kcfg_value_str`, an untrusted string is accessed with the assumption
that it will be at least two characters long due to the presence of checks for
opening and closing quotes. But the check for the closing quote
(value[len - 1] != '"') misses the fact that it could be checking the opening
quote itself in case of an invalid input that consists of just the opening
quote.

This commit adds an explicit check to make sure the string is at least two
characters long.

libbpf: Add NULL checks to bpf_object__{prev_map,next_map}

2024-09-12T09:06:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit cedc12c5b57f7efa6dbebfb2b140e8675f5a2616 ]

In the current state, an erroneous call to
bpf_object__find_map_by_name(NULL, ...) leads to a segmentation
fault through the following call chain:

  bpf_object__find_map_by_name(obj = NULL, ...)
  -> bpf_object__for_each_map(pos, obj = NULL)
  -> bpf_object__next_map((obj = NULL), NULL)
  -> return (obj = NULL)->maps

While calling bpf_object__find_map_by_name with obj = NULL is
obviously incorrect, this should not lead to a segmentation
fault but rather be handled gracefully.

As __bpf_map__iter already handles this situation correctly, we
can delegate the check for the regular case there and only add
a check in case the prev or next parameter is NULL.

libbpf: Fix no-args func prototype BTF dumping syntax

2024-08-19T03:41:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit 189f1a976e426011e6a5588f1d3ceedf71fe2965 ]

For all these years libbpf's BTF dumper has been emitting not strictly
valid syntax for function prototypes that have no input arguments.

Instead of `int (*blah)()` we should emit `int (*blah)(void)`.

This is not normally a problem, but it manifests when we get kfuncs in
vmlinux.h that have no input arguments. Due to compiler internal
specifics, we get no BTF information for such kfuncs, if they are not
declared with proper `(void)`.

The fix is trivial. We also need to adjust a few ancient tests that
happily assumed `()` is correct.

bpf: Avoid uninitialized value in BPF_CORE_READ_BITFIELD

2024-07-18T11:05:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit 009367099eb61a4fc2af44d4eb06b6b4de7de6db ]

[Changes from V1:
 - Use a default branch in the switch statement to initialize `val'.]

GCC warns that `val' may be used uninitialized in the
BPF_CRE_READ_BITFIELD macro, defined in bpf_core_read.h as:

	[...]
	unsigned long long val;						      \
	[...]								      \
	switch (__CORE_RELO(s, field, BYTE_SIZE)) {			      \
	case 1: val = *(const unsigned char *)p; break;			      \
	case 2: val = *(const unsigned short *)p; break;		      \
	case 4: val = *(const unsigned int *)p; break;			      \
	case 8: val = *(const unsigned long long *)p; break;		      \
        }       							      \
	[...]
	val;								      \
	}								      \

This patch adds a default entry in the switch statement that sets
`val' to zero in order to avoid the warning, and random values to be
used in case __builtin_preserve_field_info returns unexpected values
for BPF_FIELD_BYTE_SIZE.

Tested in bpf-next master.
No regressions.

libperf evlist: Avoid out-of-bounds access

[ Upstream commit 1947b92464c3268381604bbe2ac977a3fd78192f ]

Parallel testing appears to show a race between allocating and setting
evsel ids. As there is a bounds check on the xyarray it yields a segv
like:

```

```

Avoid this crash by early exiting the perf_evlist__id_add_fd and
perf_evlist__id_add is the access is out-of-bounds.
