libbpf: Fix segfault in static linker for objects without BTF
When a BPF object is compiled without BTF info (without -g), trying to link such objects using bpftool causes a SIGSEGV due to btf__get_nr_types accessing obj->btf which is NULL. Fix this by checking for the NULL pointer, and return error. Reproducer: $ cat a.bpf.c extern int foo(void); int bar(void) { return foo(); } $ cat b.bpf.c int foo(void) { return 0; } $ clang -O2 -target bpf -c a.bpf.c $ clang -O2 -target bpf -c b.bpf.c $ bpftool gen obj out a.bpf.o b.bpf.o Segmentation fault (core dumped) After fix: $ bpftool gen obj out a.bpf.o b.bpf.o libbpf: failed to find BTF info for object 'a.bpf.o' Error: failed to link 'a.bpf.o': Unknown error -22 (-22) Fixes: a46349227cd8 (libbpf: Add linker extern resolution support for functions and global variables) Signed-off-by: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <memxor@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210924023725.70228-1-memxor@gmail.com
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
