[PATCH bpf-next v2] bpftool: Check map name length when map create
From: Rong Tao
Date: Tue Feb 11 2025 - 06:04:08 EST
From: Rong Tao <rongtao@xxxxxxxx>
The size of struct bpf_map::name is BPF_OBJ_NAME_LEN (16).
bpf(2) {
map_create() {
bpf_obj_name_cpy(map->name, attr->map_name, sizeof(attr->map_name));
}
}
When specifying a map name using bpftool map create name, no error is
reported if the name length is greater than 15.
$ sudo bpftool map create /sys/fs/bpf/12345678901234567890 \
type array key 4 value 4 entries 5 name 12345678901234567890
Users will think that 12345678901234567890 is legal, but this name cannot
be used to index a map.
$ sudo bpftool map show name 12345678901234567890
Error: can't parse name
$ sudo bpftool map show
...
1249: array name 123456789012345 flags 0x0
key 4B value 4B max_entries 5 memlock 304B
$ sudo bpftool map show name 123456789012345
1249: array name 123456789012345 flags 0x0
key 4B value 4B max_entries 5 memlock 304B
The map name provided in the command line is truncated, but no error is
reported. This submission checks the length of the map name.
