So this patch changed LIBBPF_OPTS_RESET macro to avoid uninitialized tail padding. We already knows LIBBPF_OPTS macro works on both gcc and clang, even with tail padding. So LIBBPF_OPTS_RESET is changed to be a LIBBPF_OPTS followed by a memcpy(), thus avoiding uninitialized tail padding. The below is asm code generated with this patch and with clang compiler: ; LIBBPF_OPTS_RESET(optl, 55e3: 48 8d bd 10 fd ff ff leaq -0x2f0(%rbp), %rdi 55ea: 31 f6 xorl %esi, %esi 55ec: ba 20 00 00 00 movl $0x20, %edx 55f1: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 0x55f6 55f6: 48 c7 85 10 fd ff ff 20 00 00 00 movq $0x20, -0x2f0(%rbp) 5601: 48 8b 85 68 ff ff ff movq -0x98(%rbp), %rax 5608: 48 8b 78 18 movq 0x18(%rax), %rdi 560c: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 0x5611 5611: 89 85 18 fd ff ff movl %eax, -0x2e8(%rbp) 5617: c7 85 1c fd ff ff 00 00 00 00 movl $0x0, -0x2e4(%rbp) 5621: 48 c7 85 20 fd ff ff 00 00 00 00 movq $0x0, -0x2e0(%rbp) 562c: c7 85 28 fd ff ff 08 00 00 00 movl $0x8, -0x2d8(%rbp) 5636: 48 8b 85 10 fd ff ff movq -0x2f0(%rbp), %rax 563d: 48 89 45 98 movq %rax, -0x68(%rbp) 5641: 48 8b 85 18 fd ff ff movq -0x2e8(%rbp), %rax 5648: 48 89 45 a0 movq %rax, -0x60(%rbp) 564c: 48 8b 85 20 fd ff ff movq -0x2e0(%rbp), %rax 5653: 48 89 45 a8 movq %rax, -0x58(%rbp) 5657: 48 8b 85 28 fd ff ff movq -0x2d8(%rbp), %rax 565e: 48 89 45 b0 movq %rax, -0x50(%rbp) ; link = bpf_program__attach_netkit(skel->progs.tc2, ifindex, &optl); In the above code, a temporary buffer is zeroed and then has proper value assigned. Finally, values in temporary buffer are copied to the original variable buffer, hence tail padding is guaranteed to be 0.
