When I checked the code in skeleton header file generated with my own
bpf prog, I found there may be possible NULL pointer dereference when
destroying skeleton. Then I checked the in-tree bpf progs, finding that is
a common issue. Let's take the generated samples/bpf/xdp_redirect_cpu.skel.h
for example. Below is the generated code in
xdp_redirect_cpu__create_skeleton():
xdp_redirect_cpu__create_skeleton
struct bpf_object_skeleton *s;
s = (struct bpf_object_skeleton *)calloc(1, sizeof(*s));
if (!s)
goto error;
...
error:
bpf_object__destroy_skeleton(s);
return -ENOMEM;
After goto error, the NULL 's' will be deferenced in
bpf_object__destroy_skeleton().
We can simply fix this issue by just adding a NULL check in
bpf_object__destroy_skeleton().

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.
