Subject: [PATCH bpf v4 4/5] selftests/bpf: Add test for key-less BTF hash map
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 18:47:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901104924.346187-5-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901104924.346187-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>
Create a hash and an rhash map with btf_key_type_id == 0 and expect
bpf_map_create() to fail with -EINVAL; a positive control with a real
key type confirms the rejection is about the key-less BTF and not some
unrelated failure.
Such a map used to be accepted and then NULL-deref in btf_type_show()
when dumped through bpffs.
Signed-off-by: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>

re bot+bpf-ci: the positive control is on purpose. Without it, if the map
type is missing both creates return -EINVAL and the key-less check would
pass for the wrong reason.
