Subject: [PATCH bpf v2 0/2] bpf: fix end-of-list detection in cgroup_storage_get_next_key()
Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2026 21:29:49 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260403132951.43533-1-bestswngs@gmail.com> (raw)
list_next_entry() never returns NULL, so the NULL check in
cgroup_storage_get_next_key() is dead code. When iterating past the last
element, the function reads storage->key from a bogus pointer that aliases
internal map fields and copies the result to userspace.
Patch 1 replaces the NULL check with list_entry_is_head() so the function
correctly returns -ENOENT when there are no more entries.
Patch 2 adds a selftest to cover this corner case, as suggested by Sun Jian
and Paul Chaignon.
v2:
- Added selftest (Paul Chaignon)
- Collected Reviewed-by and Acked-by tags
