From 506ada89629ec7059b96ecfb0dc7d33ece0103ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eduard Zingerman Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 17:05:56 -0700 Subject: bpf: mark a NULL kfunc argument precise check_kfunc_arg() allows bpf_register_is_null() for nullable arguments w/o marking the underlying scalar register precise. Hence a checkpoint created on such a path would prune against arbitrary scalar value.
