bpf: Check tail zero of bpf_map_info
Since there're 4 bytes padding at the end of struct bpf_map_info, they won't be checked by bpf_check_uarg_tail_zero(). pahole -C bpf_map_info ./vmlinux struct bpf_map_info { ... __u64 hash __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /* 88 8 */ __u32 hash_size; /* 96 4 */ /* size: 104, cachelines: 2, members: 18 */ /* padding: 4 */ /* forced alignments: 1 */ /* last cacheline: 40 bytes */ } __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); If a future kernel extension adds a new 4-byte field, older userspace programs allocating this structure on the stack might inadvertently pass uninitialized stack garbage into the new field, permanently breaking backward compatibility. -- sashiko [1] Fix it by changing sizeof(info) to offsetofend(struct bpf_map_info, hash_size). And, add "__u32 :32" to the tail of struct bpf_map_info.
