You can actually lose this one, the verifier should prevent passing NULL for name__str. Other functions don't check it either. Feel free to check it, or add a negative test in case you're worried about it. > if (strncmp(name__str, XATTR_BPF_LSM_SUFFIX, sizeof(XATTR_BPF_LSM_SUFFIX) - > 1)) > return -EPERM; > > if (!xattrs->xattrs) > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > ... then a call to security_lsmxattr_add.

That said, your question is a good demonstration of the absurdity of the ask here. >> -- >> paul-moore.com
