[ Upstream commit18752d73c1] When checking malformed helper function signatures, also take other argument types into account aside from just ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM. This concerns (formerly) ARG_PTR_TO_{INT,LONG} given uninitialized memory can be passed there, too. The func proto sanity check goes back to commit435faee1aa("bpf, verifier: add ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK type"), and its purpose was to detect wrong func protos which had more than just one MEM_UNINIT-tagged type as arguments. The reason more than one is currently not supported is as we mark stack slots with STACK_MISC in check_helper_call() in case of raw mode based on meta.access_size to allow uninitialized stack memory to be passed to helpers when they just write into the buffer. Probing for base type as well as MEM_UNINIT tagging ensures that other types do not get missed (as it used to be the case for ARG_PTR_TO_{INT,LONG}).

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.
