[PULL 1/1] linux-user: NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS: Allow bad ptr if its le


From: Laurent Vivier
Subject: [PULL 1/1] linux-user: NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS: Allow bad ptr if its length is 0
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 2021 16:38:46 +0200

From: Frédéric Fortier <frf@ghgsat.com>

getsockopt(fd, SOL_NETLINK, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS, *optval, *optlen)
syscall allows optval to be NULL/invalid if optlen points to a size of
zero. This allows userspace to query the length of the array they should
use to get the full membership list before allocating memory for said
list, then re-calling getsockopt with proper optval/optlen arguments.

Notable users of this pattern include systemd-networkd, which in the
(albeit old) version 237 tested, cannot start without this fix.
