Which loop do you refer to?
The one in check_reg_type shouldn't go out of bounds due to ARRAY_SIZE:
for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(compatible->types); i++) {
expected = compatible->types[i];
if (expected == NOT_INIT)
break;

I looked up designated initializers when I wrote this, since I wasn't
super familiar with them:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Designated-Inits.html#Designated-Inits
Note that the length of the array is the highest value specified plus one.
So ARG_ANYTHING and ARG_DONTCARE are OK since there is a higher enum
value present in the initializer. If someone adds a new item to enum
bpf_arg_type I assume they would add it to the end. In that case the
highest value of the initializer doesn't change, and then indexing
into compatible_reg_types with the new enum value would be out of
bounds. Adding __BPF_ARG_TYPE_MAX fixes that.
It's very possible I misunderstood how this whole contraption works,
happy to send a patch.
