Linux kernel source tree
70cfab1d87
For probing program and map types, bpftool loops on type values and uses
the relevant type name in prog_type_name[] or map_type_name[]. To ensure
the name exists, we exit from the loop if we go over the size of the
array.
However, this is not enough in the case where the arrays have "holes" in
them, program or map types for which they have no name, but not at the
end of the list. This is currently the case for BPF_PROG_TYPE_LSM, not
known to bpftool and which name is a null string. When probing for
features, bpftool attempts to strlen() that name and segfaults.
Let's fix it by skipping probes for "unknown" program and map types,
with an informational message giving the numeral value in that case.

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.
