Subject: [PATCH bpf v2 6/8] bpf: user_ringbuf: Handle position wrap
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2026 20:26:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260618-bpf-ringbuf-fixes-v2-6-33fde039ddf3@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260618-bpf-ringbuf-fixes-v2-0-33fde039ddf3@kernel.org>
User ring buffer positions are unsigned long counters, but
__bpf_user_ringbuf_peek() widens them to u64 before comparing and
subtracting them. On 32-bit systems, producer_pos wrapping below
consumer_pos therefore appears to move backwards and permanently stalls
the ring. The widened subtraction can also bypass the advertised-window
check.
Keep the positions word-sized and derive the available data with
word-sized subtraction so the arithmetic wraps with the counters. Treat
a zero span as empty and reject spans larger than the ring before
reading a record header.
Fixes: 205715673844 ("bpf: Add bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() helper")
Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260614020552.022A11F000E9@smtp.kernel.org/
