[PATCH bpf v2 0/2] Fix for crash due to overwrite in copy_map_value

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A fix for an oversight in copy_map_value that leads to kernel crash.

Also, a question for BPF developers:
It seems in arraymap.c, we always do check_and_free_timer_in_array after we do
copy_map_value in map_update_elem callback, but the same is not done for
hashtab.c. Is there a specific reason for this difference in behavior, or did I
miss that it happens for hashtab.c as well?
