Alexei Starovoitov b78b34c604 Merge branch 'bpf: fix NULL dereference during extable search'
Krister Johansen says:

====================
Hi,
Enclosed are a pair of patches for an oops that can occur if an exception is
generated while a bpf subprogram is running.  One of the bpf_prog_aux entries
for the subprograms are missing an extable.  This can lead to an exception that
would otherwise be handled turning into a NULL pointer bug.

These changes were tested via the verifier and progs selftests and no
regressions were observed.

Changes from v4:
- Ensure that num_exentries is copied to prog->aux from func[0] (Feedback from
  Ilya Leoshkevich)

Changes from v3:
- Selftest style fixups (Feedback from Yonghong Song)
- Selftest needs to assert that test bpf program executed (Feedback from
  Yonghong Song)
- Selftest should combine open and load using open_and_load (Feedback from
  Yonghong Song)

Changes from v2:
- Insert only the main program's kallsyms (Feedback from Yonghong Song and
  Alexei Starovoitov)
- Selftest should use ASSERT instead of CHECK (Feedback from Yonghong Song)
- Selftest needs some cleanup (Feedback from Yonghong Song)
- Switch patch order (Feedback from Alexei Starovoitov)

Changes from v1:
- Add a selftest (Feedback From Alexei Starovoitov)
- Move to a 1-line verifier change instead of searching multiple extables

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.
