Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 1/5] bpf: Check tail zero of bpf_common_attr using offsetofend
Date: Mon, 18 May 2026 22:54:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260518145446.6794-2-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260518145446.6794-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev>

Because of the 8-byte alignment, the compiler will pad struct
bpf_common_attr to 24 bytes. That said, sizeof(attr_common) is 24 instead
of 20.

When check tail zero using sizeof(attr_common) in
bpf_check_uarg_tail_zero(), there will be 4 bytes that won't be checked.

To also check the padding 4 bytes, replace sizeof(attr_common) with
offsetofend(struct bpf_common_attr, log_true_size).

Fixes: f28771c0691b ("bpf: Extend BPF syscall with common attributes support")
