[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 013/123] tools: bpftool: prevent infinite loop in get_fdinfo()

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2018-12-05 10:13:33
Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [tooling] (bpftool), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Quentin Monnet, Linus Torvalds

From: Quentin Monnet <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 53909030aa29bffe1f8490df62176c2375135652 ]

Function getline() returns -1 on failure to read a line, thus creating
an infinite loop in get_fdinfo() if the key is not found. Fix it by
calling the function only as long as we get a strictly positive return
value.

Found by copying the code for a key which is not always present...
