Subject: [nft PATCH] fib: Fix for existence check on Big Endian
Date: Tue, 9 Sep 2025 22:49:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250909204948.17757-1-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
Adjust the expression size to 1B so cmp expression value is correct.
Without this, the rule 'fib saddr . iif check exists' generates
following byte code on BE:
| [ fib saddr . iif oif present => reg 1 ]
| [ cmp eq reg 1 0x00000001 ]
Though with NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT flag set, nft_fib.ko writes to the first
byte of reg 1 only (using nft_reg_store8()). With this patch in place,
byte code is correct:
| [ fib saddr . iif oif present => reg 1 ]
| [ cmp eq reg 1 0x01000000 ]
Fixes: f686a17eafa0b ("fib: Support existence check")
