[PATCH 5.4 119/434] libbpf: Fix passing uninitialized bytes to setsockopt

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Dec 29 2019 - 12:51:01 EST


From: Ilya Maximets <i.maximets@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 25bfef430e960e695403b5d9c8dcc11b9f5d62be ]

'struct xdp_umem_reg' has 4 bytes of padding at the end that makes
valgrind complain about passing uninitialized stack memory to the
syscall:

Syscall param socketcall.setsockopt() points to uninitialised byte(s)
at 0x4E7AB7E: setsockopt (in /usr/lib64/libc-2.29.so)
by 0x4BDE035: xsk_umem__create@@LIBBPF_0.0.4 (xsk.c:172)
Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation
at 0x4BDDEBA: xsk_umem__create@@LIBBPF_0.0.4 (xsk.c:140)

Padding bytes appeared after introducing of a new 'flags' field.
memset() is required to clear them.
