Trying to parse above, could you add a bit more detail on why this is
problem so readers don't need to track it down.

Because we are looking at it let me try to understand. There are two
paths that set cnt relative bits here,


Hi John,

Thanks for your review. The reason is that:
For the following cgroup tree:
   root
    |
   cg1
    |
   cg2

I attached prog1 and prog2 to root cgroup with MULTI attach type, attached prog3 to cg1 with OVERRIDE attach type, and then used bpftool
to show this cgroup tree with effective query flag:

$ bpftool cgroup tree /sys/fs/cgroup effective
CgroupPath
ID       AttachType      AttachFlags     Name
/sys/fs/cgroup
1        sysctl          multi           sysctl_tcp_mem
2        sysctl          multi           sysctl_tcp_mem
/sys/fs/cgroup/cg1
3        sysctl          override        sysctl_tcp_mem
1        sysctl          override        sysctl_tcp_mem <- wrong
2        sysctl          override        sysctl_tcp_mem <- wrong
/sys/fs/cgroup/cg1/cg2
3        sysctl                          sysctl_tcp_mem
1        sysctl                          sysctl_tcp_mem
2        sysctl                          sysctl_tcp_mem

For cg1, obviously, the attach flags of prog1 and prog2 can not be OVERRIDE, and the attach flags of prog1 and prog2 is meaningless for cg1. We only need to care the attach flags of prog which attached to cg1, other progs attach flags should be omit.

   if (attr->query.query_flags & BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE) {
       ...
       cnt = min_t(int, bpf_prog_array_length(effective), total_cnt);
       ...
   } else {
      ...
      progs = &cgrp->bpf.progs[atype];
      cnt = min_t(int, prog_list_length(progs), total_cnt);
      ...
   }

And the docs claim

  *              **BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE**
  *                      Only return information regarding programs which are
  *                      currently effective at the specified *target_fd*.

so in the EFFECTIVE case should we be reporting flags at all if the
commit message says "attach flags is only valid for attached progs
of this layer cgroup, but not for effective progs."

And then in the else branch the change is what you have in the diff anyways correct?

  		if (prog_attach_flags) {
+			int progs_cnt = prog_list_length(&cgrp->bpf.progs[atype]);
  			flags = cgrp->bpf.flags[atype];
- for (i = 0; i < cnt; i++)

Do we need to min with total_cnt here so we don't walk off a short user list?


We should limit it, will fix it in v2. For query without effective flag, progs_cnt will equal to cnt, and for effective flag situation, progs_cnt only calculate prog count which attached to this cgroup layer.

+			/* attach flags only for attached progs, but not effective progs */
+			for (i = 0; i < progs_cnt; i++)
  				if (copy_to_user(prog_attach_flags + i, &flags, sizeof(flags)))
  					return -EFAULT;
+
  			prog_attach_flags += cnt;
  		}
