bpf: Validate outgoing stack args when btf_prepare_func_args fails
btf_prepare_func_args() sets sub->arg_cnt before validating arg types. If validation fails (e.g. unsupported pointer type in a static subprog), check_outgoing_stack_args() is skipped because btf_check_func_arg_match() returns early. For static subprogs, check_func_call() ignores non-EFAULT errors and proceeds with the call. This causes the callee to read stack arg slots that the caller never stored or not initialized, potentially dereferencing NULL caller->stack_arg_regs or getting no-initialized value. To fix the issue, when btf_prepare_func_args() fails and the subprog expects stack args, call check_outgoing_stack_args() to verify the caller initialized the slots. Return -EFAULT on failure so the error is not ignored. Fixes: 3ab5bd317ee2 ("bpf: Set sub->arg_cnt earlier in btf_prepare_func_args()") Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song <yonghong.song@linux.dev> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260515225040.821515-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
