Subject: [PATCH 3/5] treewide: Don't rely on terminator records in ip[46].dns arrays
Date: Mon,  5 Jan 2026 18:53:35 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260105075337.1724962-4-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260105075337.1724962-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

In our arrays of DNS resolvers to pass to the guest we use a blank entry
to indicate the end of the list.  We rely on this when scanning the array,
not having separate bounds checking.  clang-tidy 21.1.7 has fancier
checking for array overruns in loops, but it's not able to reason that
there's always a terminating entry, so complains.

Indeed, it's correct to do so in this case.  Although we allow space in the
arrays for the terminator (size MAXNS + 1), add_dns[46]() check only for
    idx >= ARRAY_SIZE()
before adding an entry.  This allows it to consume the last slot with a
"real" entry, meaning the places where we scan really could overrun.

Fix the bug, and make it easier to reason about (for both clang-tidy and
people) by using ARRAY_SIZE() base bounds checking.  Treat the terminator
explicitly as an early exit case using 'break'.
