Subject: [PATCH] bpf: Reject offloaded maps as map-in-map inner maps
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 18:56:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112105620.57520-1-shlomojune6@gmail.com> (raw)

bpf_map_update_elem() on an ARRAY_OF_MAPS or HASH_OF_MAPS map accepts
the fd of an offloaded map.  A program that then looks up the inner map
gets a pointer computed with the software map layout: with an ARRAY
template the write lands in struct bpf_offloaded_map.dev_priv, with a
HASH template __htab_map_lookup_elem() reads bpf_htab fields past the
320-byte offloaded map allocation (KASAN slab-out-of-bounds).  An
offloaded map used as inner_map_fd is accepted as well, and the first
inner lookup jumps to an invalid address because bpf_map_offload_ops
has no map_lookup_elem.

The root cause is that bpf_map_meta_equal() compares map_type,
key_size, value_size, map_flags and the btf record only, and
bpf_map_fd_get_ptr() relies on the template's map_meta_equal() without
comparing ops.  Offloaded maps share map_type (ARRAY/HASH) with the
software maps, but use bpf_map_offload_ops and a different object
layout, while the verifier and the JIT keep using the template's ops
and layout.

Reject offloaded maps in bpf_map_meta_alloc() so they cannot be an
inner-map template, and require inner_map_meta->ops == inner_map->ops
in bpf_map_fd_get_ptr().
