From: Yonghong Song <yhs@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 17d8beda277a36203585943e70c7909b60775fd5 ] Commit 15d83c4d7cef ("bpf: Allow loading of a bpf_iter program") cached btf_id in struct bpf_iter_target_info so later on if it can be checked cheaply compared to checking registered names. syzbot found a bug that uninitialized value may occur to bpf_iter_target_info->btf_id. This is because we allocated bpf_iter_target_info structure with kmalloc and never initialized field btf_id afterwards. This uninitialized btf_id is typically compared to a u32 bpf program func proto btf_id, and the chance of being equal is extremely slim. This patch fixed the issue by using kzalloc which will also prevent future likely instances due to adding new fields.
