Subject: [PATCH bpf v3 1/2] bpf: Make sure all tail call callers use cgroup storage if the owner does
Date: Wed,  3 Dec 2025 11:50:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251203195050.3215728-1-ameryhung@gmail.com> (raw)

Mitigate a possible NULL pointer dereference in bpf_get_local_storage()
by requiring all callers to use cgroup storage if the owner does.

Cgroup storage is allocated lazily when attaching a cgroup bpf program.
With tail call, it is possible for a callee BPF program to see a NULL
storage pointer if the caller prorgam does not use cgroup storage.
