Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 04/23] bpf: Set sub->arg_cnt earlier in btf_prepare_func_args()
Date: Thu, 7 May 2026 14:30:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507213003.1125144-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260507212942.1122000-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>
Move the "sub->arg_cnt = nargs" assignment to immediately after
nargs is computed from btf_type_vlen(), instead of at the end of
btf_prepare_func_args().
btf_prepare_func_args() can return -EINVAL early in several cases,
e.g. when a static function has some non-int/enum arguments.
Since -EINVAL from btf_prepare_func_args() does not immediately
reject verification, arg_cnt remains zero after the early return.
This causes later stack argument based load/store insns to
incorrectly assume the function has no arguments.
Setting arg_cnt right after nargs ensures it is available regardless
of which path btf_prepare_func_args() takes.
