[PATCH v2 v5.15-v6.1] netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: do not rely on ZERO_SIZE_PTR
Posted by Keerthana K 4 hours ago
From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

commit 07ace0bbe03b3d8e85869af1dec5e4087b1d57b8 upstream

pipapo relies on kmalloc(0) returning ZERO_SIZE_PTR (i.e., not NULL
but pointer is invalid).

Rework this to not call slab allocator when we'd request a 0-byte
allocation.

[Keerthana: In older stable branches (v6.6 and earlier), the allocation logic in
pipapo_clone() still relies on `src->rules` rather than `src->rules_alloc`
(introduced in v6.9 via 9f439bd6ef4f). Consequently, the previously
backported INT_MAX clamping check uses `src->rules`. This patch correctly
moves that `src->rules > (INT_MAX / ...)` check inside the new
`if (src->rules > 0)` block]
