Using bpf_redirect_map is allowed for generic XDP programs, but the appropriate map lookup was never performed in xdp_do_generic_redirect(). Instead the map-index is directly used as the ifindex. For the xdp_redirect_map sample in SKB-mode '-S', this resulted in trying sending on ifindex 0 which isn't valid, resulting in getting SKB packets dropped. Thus, the reported performance numbers are wrong in commit24251c2647("samples/bpf: add option for native and skb mode for redirect apps") for the 'xdp_redirect_map -S' case. Before commit109980b894("bpf: don't select potentially stale ri->map from buggy xdp progs") it could crash the kernel. Like this commit also check that the map_owner owner is correct before dereferencing the map pointer. But make sure that this API misusage can be caught by a tracepoint. Thus, allowing userspace via tracepoints to detect misbehaving bpf_progs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
