The realloc_array() fails, but the previous memory is not released. However, state->stack and state->refs are set to NULL. This will cause memory leakage. The memory leak information is as follows: unreferenced object 0xffff888019801800 (size 256): comm "bpf_repo", pid 6490, jiffies 4294959200 (age 17.170s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<00000000b211474b>] __kmalloc_node_track_caller+0x45/0xc0 [<0000000086712a0b>] krealloc+0x83/0xd0 [<00000000139aab02>] realloc_array+0x82/0xe2 [<00000000b1ca41d1>] grow_stack_state+0xfb/0x186 [<00000000cd6f36d2>] check_mem_access.cold+0x141/0x1341 [<0000000081780455>] do_check_common+0x5358/0xb350 [<0000000015f6b091>] bpf_check.cold+0xc3/0x29d [<000000002973c690>] bpf_prog_load+0x13db/0x2240 [<00000000028d1644>] __sys_bpf+0x1605/0x4ce0 [<00000000053f29bd>] __x64_sys_bpf+0x75/0xb0 [<0000000056fedaf5>] do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 [<000000002bd58261>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd Fixes: c69431aab67a ("bpf: verifier: Improve function state reallocation") Signed-off-by: Zhengchao Shao <shaozhengchao@xxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/bpf/verifier.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/kernel/bpf/verifier.c b/kernel/bpf/verifier.c index 7f0a9f6cb889..c0b0cc2891e3 100644 --- a/kernel/bpf/verifier.c +++ b/kernel/bpf/verifier.c @@ -1027,12 +1027,16 @@ static void *copy_array(void *dst, const void *src, size_t n, size_t size, gfp_t */ static void *realloc_array(void *arr, size_t old_n, size_t new_n, size_t size) { + void *old_arr = arr; + if (!new_n || old_n == new_n) goto out; arr = krealloc_array(arr, new_n, size, GFP_KERNEL); - if (!arr) + if (!arr) { + kfree(old_arr); return NULL; + } if (new_n > old_n) memset(arr + old_n * size, 0, (new_n - old_n) * size); -- 2.17.1
