[ Upstream commit b6ee896385380aa621102e8ea402ba12db1cabff ]
int type = nla_type(nla);
if (type > XFRMA_MAX) {
return -EOPNOTSUPP;
}
@type is then used as an array index and can be used
as a Spectre v1 gadget.
if (nla_len(nla) < compat_policy[type].len) {
array_index_nospec() can be used to prevent leaking
content of kernel memory to malicious users.

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.
