Currently, verifier does not reject XDP programs that pass NULL pointer to hints functions. At the same time, this case is not handled in any driver implementation (including veth). For example, changing bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_timestamp(ctx, ×tamp); to bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_timestamp(ctx, NULL); in xdp_metadata test successfully crashes the system. Add KF_TRUSTED_ARGS flag to hints kfunc definitions, so driver code does not have to worry about getting invalid pointers.

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.
