Subject: [iproute PATCH] lib/bpf: Fix bytecode-file parsing
The signedness of char type is implementation dependent, and there are
architectures on which it is unsigned by default. In that case, the
check whether fgetc() returned EOF failed because the return value was
assigned an (unsigned) char variable prior to comparison with EOF (which
is defined to -1). Fix this by using int as type for 'c' variable, which
also matches the declaration of fgetc().
While being at it, fix the parser logic to correctly handle multiple
empty lines and consecutive whitespace and tab characters to further
improve the parser's robustness. Note that this will still detect double
separator characters, so doesn't soften up the parser too much.
Fixes: 3da3ebfca85b8 ("bpf: Make bytecode-file reading a little more robust")
