bpf: Fix an issue due to uninitialized bpf_iter_task
Failure to initialize it->pos, coupled with the presence of an invalid value in the flags variable, can lead to it->pos referencing an invalid task, potentially resulting in a kernel panic. To mitigate this risk, it's crucial to ensure proper initialization of it->pos to NULL. Fixes: ac8148d9 ("bpf: bpf_iter_task_next: use next_task(kit->task) rather than next_task(kit->pos)") Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Yonghong Song <yonghong.song@linux.dev> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240217114152.1623-2-laoar.shao@gmail.com
