The WARN_ON call in bpf_trampoline_update could never hit, because we
direct the code path with (total == 0) to out label, which effectively
skips the WARN_ON call.
The WARN_ON made sense back then when it checked tr->selector, but now
with total being set just inside the function it's useless.

states.c:range_within() must be updated to properly check if
cnum-based range in an old state is a superset of a range in the cur
state. Currently it makes the decision using min/max accessors:
reg_umin(old) <= reg_umin(cur) <= reg_umax(old)
This is wrong for cnums that cross both UT_MAX/0 and ST_MAX/ST_MIN
boundaries. Consider cnum32{base=0x7FFFFFF0, size=0x80000020},
which represents values [0x7FFFFFF0, ..., U32_MAX, 0, ..., 0x10].
Its projections are u32_min/max=0/U32_MAX, s32_min/max=S32_MIN/MAX.
A register with range [0x100, 0x200] (which lies entirely in the gap
of the wrapping range) would pass the min/max check despite having no
overlap with the actual cnum arc.
This commit replaces min/max comparison with cnum{32,64}_is_subset()
operation. The operation implementation is verified using cbmc model
checker in [1].

Replace eight independent s64, u64, s32, u32 min/max fields in
bpf_reg_state with two circular number fields:
- cnum64 for a unified signed/unsigned 64-bit range tracking;
- cnum32 for a unified signed/unsigned 32-bit range tracking.
Each cnum represents a range as a single arc on the circular number
line (base + size), from which signed and unsigned bounds are derived
on demand via accessor functions introduced in the preceding commit.
Notable changes:
- Signed<->unsigned deductions in __reg_deduce_bounds() are removed.
- 64<->32 bit deductions are replaced with:
- reg->r32 = cnum32_intersect(reg->r32, cnum32_from_cnum64(reg->r64));
this is functionally equivalent to the old code.
- reg->r64 = cnum64_cnum32_intersect(reg->r64, reg->r32);
this handles a few additional cases, see commit message for
"bpf: representation and basic operations on circular numbers".
- regs_refine_cond_op() now computes results in terms of operations on
sets, e.g. for JNE:
/* Complement of the range [val, val] as cnum64. */
lo = (struct cnum64){ val + 1, U64_MAX - 1 };
reg1->r64 = cnum64_intersect(reg1->r64, lo);
- For add, sub operations on scalars replace explicit bounds
computations with cnum{32,64}_{add,negate}.
- For add, sub operations on pointers deduplicate with arithmetic
operations on scalars and use cnum{32,64}_{add,negate}.
- For and, or, xor operations on scalars remove explicit signed bounds
computations.
- range_bounds_violation() reduces to checking cnum_is_empty().
- const_tnum_range_mismatch() reduces to checking cnum_is_const().
Selftest adjustments: a few existing tests are updated because a
single cnum arc cannot always represent what the old system expressed
as the intersection of independent signed and unsigned ranges.
For example, if the old system tracked u64=[0, U64_MAX-U32_MAX+2] and
s64=[S64_MIN+2, 2] independently, their intersection is a tight
two-point set. A single cnum must pick the shorter arc, losing the
other constraint. These cases are documented with comments in the
adjusted tests.
reg_bounds.c is updated with logic similar to
cnum64_cnum32_intersect(). Instead of using cnums it inspects
intersection between 'b' and first / last / next-after-first /
previous-before-last sub-ranges of 'a'.
reg_bounds.c is also updated to skip test cases that rely
in signed and unsigned ranges intersecting in two intervals,
as such cases are not representable by a single cnum.
The following "crafted" test cases are affected:
- reg_bounds_crafted/(s64)[0xffffffffffff8000; 0x7fff] (u32)<op> [0; 0x1f]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(s64)[0; 0x1f] (u32)<op> [0xffffffffffffff80; 0x7f]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(s64)[0xffffffffffffff80; 0x7f] (u32)<op> [0; 0x1f]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(u64)[0; 1] (s32)<op> [1; 2147483648]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(u64)[1; 2147483648] (s32)<op> [0; 1]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(u64)[0; 0xffffffff00000000] (s64)<op> 0
- reg_bounds_crafted/(u64)0 (s64)<op> [0; 0xffffffff00000000]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(u64)[0; 0xffffffff00000000] (s32)<op> 0
- reg_bounds_crafted/(u64)0 (s32)<op> [0; 0xffffffff00000000]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(s64)[S64_MIN; 0] (u64)<op> S64_MIN
- reg_bounds_crafted/(s64)S64_MIN (u64)<op> [S64_MIN; 0]

- reg_bounds_crafted/(s32)S32_MIN (u32)<op> [S32_MIN; 0]
- reg_bounds_crafted/(s64)[0; 0x1f] (u32)<op> [0xffffffff80000000; 0x7fffffff]

This commit adds basic definitions for cnum32/cnum64.
This is a unified numeric range representation for signed and unsigned
domains. Inspired by an old post from Shung-Hsi Yu [1] and paper [2].
Operations correctness is verified using cbmc model checker,
tests source code can be found in a separate repo [3].
The cnum64_cnum32_intersect() function is notable, because it handled
several cases verifier.c:deduce_bounds_64_from_32() does not.
Given:
- a is a 64-bit range
- b is a 32-bit range
- t is a refined 64-bit range, such that ∀ v ∈ a, (u32)v ∈ b: v ∈ t.
cnum64_cnum32_intersect() makes the following deductions:
(A): 'b' is a sub-range of the first or the last 32-bit
sub-range of 'a':
64-bit number axis --->
N*2^32 (N+1)*2^32 (N+2)*2^32 (N+3)*2^32
||------|---|=====|-------||----------|=====|-------||----------|=====|----|--||
| |< b >| |< b >| |< b >| |
| | | |
|<--+--------------------------- a ---------------------------+--->|
| |
|<-------------------------- t -------------------------->|
(B) 'b' does not intersect with the first of the last 32-bit
sub-range of 'a':
N*2^32 (N+1)*2^32 (N+2)*2^32 (N+3)*2^32
||--|=====|----|----------||--|=====|---------------||--|=====|------------|--||
|< b >| | |< b >| |< b >| |
| | | |
|<-------------+--------- a -------------------|----------->|
| |
|<-------- t ------------------>|
(C) 'b' crosses 0/U32_MAX boundary:
N*2^32 (N+1)*2^32 (N+2)*2^32 (N+3)*2^32
||===|---------|------|===||===|----------------|===||===|---------|------|===||
|b >| | |< b||b >| |< b||b >| | |< b|
| | | |
|<-----+----------------- a --------------+-------->|
| |
|<---------------- t ------------->|
Current implementation of deduce_bounds_64_from_32() only handles
case (A).

Introduce BPF_REG_PARAMS as a dedicated BPF register for stack
argument accesses. It occupies the BPF register number 11 (R11),
which is used as the base pointer for the stack argument area,
keeping it separate from the R10-based (BPF_REG_FP) program stack.
The kernel-internal hidden register BPF_REG_AX previously occupied
slot 11 (MAX_BPF_REG). With BPF_REG_PARAMS taking that slot,
BPF_REG_AX moves to slot 12 and MAX_BPF_EXT_REG increases
accordingly.

This change prepares verifier log reporting for upcoming kfunc stack
argument support.
Currently verifier log code mostly assumes that an argument can be
described directly by a register number. That works for arguments
passed in `R1` to `R5`, but it does not work once kfunc arguments
can also be passed on the stack.
Introduce an opaque `argno_t` type that encodes both register-based
and arg-based references. Four helpers form the interface:
- argno_from_reg(regno): create from a register number
- argno_from_arg(arg): create from a 1-based arg number
- reg_from_argno(a): extract register number, or -1
- arg_from_argno(a): extract arg number, or -1
reg_arg_name() converts an argno_t to a human-readable string for
verifier logs: "R%d" for register arguments, or "*(R11-off)" for
stack arguments beyond R5.
Update selftests accordingly.

In many cases, once a bpf_reg_state is defined, it can pass to
callee's. Otherwise, callee will need to get bpf_reg_state again
based on regno. More importantly, this is needed for later stack
arguments for kfuncs since the register state for stack arguments does
not have a corresponding regno. So it makes sense to pass reg state
for callee's.
The following is the only change to avoid compilation warning:
static int sanitize_check_bounds(struct bpf_verifier_env *env,
const struct bpf_insn *insn,
- const struct bpf_reg_state *dst_reg)
+ struct bpf_reg_state *dst_reg)

In check_max_stack_depth_subprog(), the local variable
tail_call_reachable is set when entering a callee that has a tail
call, but never reset when popping back to the parent. This causes
the flag to leak across sibling subprogs in the DFS traversal.
This results in unnecessary JIT overhead: the JIT emits tail call
counter preservation code for subprogs that can never be reached
via a tail call path.
Fix this by resetting tail_call_reachable to the parent's actual
per-subprog flag when popping a frame. If the parent was already
marked tail_call_reachable by a previous sibling's traversal, the
local variable stays true. Otherwise it resets to false, so
subsequent siblings start with a clean state.

Allow BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT, BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT, and
BPF_TRACE_RAW_TP (tp_btf) programs to be sleepable by adding them
to can_be_sleepable().
For BTF-based raw tracepoints (tp_btf), add a load-time check in
bpf_check_attach_target() that rejects sleepable programs attaching
to non-faultable tracepoints with a descriptive error message.
For raw tracepoints (raw_tp), add an attach-time check in
bpf_raw_tp_link_attach() that rejects sleepable programs on
non-faultable tracepoints. The attach-time check is needed because
the tracepoint name is not known at load time for raw_tp.
The attach-time check for classic tracepoints (tp) in
__perf_event_set_bpf_prog() was added in the previous patch.
Replace the verbose error message that enumerates allowed program
types with a generic "Program of this type cannot be sleepable"

BTF maximum vlen is encoded using 16 bits with a maximum vlen
of 65535. This has sufficed for structs, function parameters
and enumerated type values. However, with upcoming BTF location
information - in particular information about inline sites -
this limit is surpassed. Use bits 16-23 - currently unused in
BTF info - to extend to 24 bits, giving a max vlen of (2^24 - 1),
or 16 million.
Also extend BTF kind encoding from 5 to 7 bits, giving a maximum
available number of kinds of 128. Since with the BTF location work
we use another 3 kinds, we are fast approaching the current limit
of 32.
Convert BTF_MAX_* values to enums to allow them to be encoded in
kernel BTF; this will allow us to detect if the running kernel
supports a 24-bit vlen or not. Add one for max _possible_
(not used) kind.
Fix up a few places in the kernel where a 16-bit vlen is assumed;
remove BTF_INFO_MASK as now all bits are used.
The vlen expansion was suggested by Andrii in [1]; the kind expansion
is tackled here too as it may be needed also to support new kinds
in BTF.

Redefine dynptr mutability and fix inconsistency in the verifier and
kfunc signatures. Dynptr mutability is at two levels. The first is
the bpf_dynptr structure and the second is the memory the dynptr points
to. The verifer currently tracks the mutability of the bpf_dynptr struct
through helper and kfunc prototypes, where "const struct bpf_dynptr *"
means the structure itself is immutable. The second level is tracked
in upper bit of bpf_dynptr->size in runtime and is not changed in this
patch.
There are two type of inconsistency in the verfier regarding the
mutability of the bpf_dynptr struct. First, there are many existing
kfuncs whose prototypes are wrong. For example, bpf_dynptr_adjust()
mutates a dynptr's start and offset but marks the argument as a const
pointer. At the same time many other kfuncs that does not mutate the
dynptr but mark themselves as mutable. Second, the verifier currently
does not honor the const qualifier in kfunc prototypes as it determines
whether tagging the arg_type with MEM_RDONLY or not based on the register
state.
Since all the verifier care is to prevent CONST_PTR_TO_DYNPTR from
being destroyed in callback and global subprogram, redefine the
mutability at the bpf_dynptr level to just bpf_dynptr_kern->data. Then,
explicitly prohibit passing CONST_PTR_TO_DYNPTR to an argument tagged
with MEM_UNINIT or OBJ_RELEASE. The mutability of a dynptr's view is not
really interesting so drop MEM_RDONLY annotation for dynptr from the
helpers and kfuncs. Plus, if the mutability of the entire bpf_dynptr
were to be done correctly, it would kill the bpf_dynptr_adjust() usage
in callback and global subporgram.
Implementation wise
- First, make sure all kfunc arg are correctly tagged: Tag the dynptr
argument of bpf_dynptr_file_discard() with OBJ_RELEASE.
- Then, in process_dynptr_func(), make sure CONST_PTR_TO_DYNPTR cannot
be passed to argument tagged with MEM_UNINIT or OBJ_RELEASE. For
MEM_UNINIT, it is already checked by is_dynptr_reg_valid_uninit().
For OBJ_RELEASE, check against OBJ_RELEASE instead of MEM_RDONLY and
drop a now identical check in unmark_stack_slots_dynptr().
- Remove the mutual exclusive check between MEM_UNINIT and MEM_RDONLY,
but don't add a MEM_UNINIT and OBJ_RELEASE version as it is obviously
wrong.
Note that while this patch stops following the C semantic for the
mutability of bpf_dynptr, the prototype of kfuncs are still fixed to
maintain the correct C semantics in the implementation. Adding or
removing the const qualifier does not break backward compatibility.
In addition, fix kfuncs dropping the const qualifier when casting the
opaque bpf_dynptr to bpf_dynptr_kern.
In test_kfunc_dynptr_param.c, initialize dynptr to 0 to avoid
-Wuninitialized-const-pointer warning.

Currently, when bpf_struct_ops_map_update_elem() fails, the programs'
st_ops_assoc will remain set. They may become dangling pointers if the
map is freed later, but they will never be dereferenced since the
struct_ops attachment did not succeed. However, if one of the programs
is subsequently attached as part of another struct_ops map, its
st_ops_assoc will be poisoned even though its old st_ops_assoc was stale
from a failed attachment.
Fix the spurious poisoned st_ops_assoc by dissociating struct_ops
programs with a map if the attachment fails. Move
bpf_prog_assoc_struct_ops() to after *plink++ to make sure
bpf_prog_disassoc_struct_ops() will not miss a program when iterating
st_map->links.
Note that, dissociating a program from a map requires some attention as
it must not reset a poisoned st_ops_assoc or a st_ops_assoc pointing to

bpf_bprintf_prepare() only needs ASCII parsing for conversion
specifiers. Plain text can safely carry bytes >= 0x80, so allow
UTF-8 literals outside '%' sequences while keeping ASCII control
bytes rejected and format specifiers ASCII-only.
This keeps existing parsing rules for format directives unchanged,
while allowing helpers such as bpf_trace_printk() to emit UTF-8
literal text.
Update test_snprintf_negative() in the same commit so selftests keep
matching the new plain-text vs format-specifier split during bisection.

Commit ab6c637ad0 ("bpf: Fix a bpf_kptr_xchg() issue with local
kptr") refactored map_kptr_match_type() to branch on btf_is_kernel()
before checking base_type(). A scalar register stored into a kptr
slot has no btf, so the btf_is_kernel(reg->btf) call dereferences
NULL.
Move the base_type() != PTR_TO_BTF_ID guard before any reg->btf
access.

Introduce helper bpf_insn_is_indirect_target to check whether a BPF
instruction is an indirect jump target.
Since the verifier knows which instructions are indirect jump targets,
add a new flag indirect_target to struct bpf_insn_aux_data to mark
them. The verifier sets this flag when verifying an indirect jump target
instruction, and the helper checks the flag to determine whether an
instruction is an indirect jump target.

Pass bpf_verifier_env to bpf_int_jit_compile(). The follow-up patch will
use env->insn_aux_data in the JIT stage to detect indirect jump targets.
Since bpf_prog_select_runtime() can be called by cbpf and lib/test_bpf.c
code without verifier, introduce helper __bpf_prog_select_runtime()
to accept the env parameter.
Remove the call to bpf_prog_select_runtime() in bpf_prog_load(), and
switch to call __bpf_prog_select_runtime() in the verifier, with env
variable passed. The original bpf_prog_select_runtime() is preserved for
cbpf and lib/test_bpf.c, where env is NULL.
Now all constants blinding calls are moved into the verifier, except
the cbpf and lib/test_bpf.c cases. The instructions arrays are adjusted
by bpf_patch_insn_data() function for normal cases, so there is no need
to call adjust_insn_arrays() in bpf_jit_blind_constants(). Remove it.

During the JIT stage, constants blinding rewrites instructions but only
rewrites the private instruction copy of the JITed subprog, leaving the
global env->prog->insnsi and env->insn_aux_data untouched. This causes a
mismatch between subprog instructions and the global state, making it
difficult to use the global data in the JIT.
To avoid this mismatch, and given that all arch-specific JITs already
support constants blinding, move it to the generic verifier code, and
switch to rewrite the global env->prog->insnsi with the global states
adjusted, as other rewrites in the verifier do.
This removes the constants blinding calls in each JIT, which are largely
duplicated code across architectures.
Since constants blinding is only required for JIT, and there are two
JIT entry functions, jit_subprogs() for BPF programs with multiple
subprogs and bpf_prog_select_runtime() for programs with no subprogs,
move the constants blinding invocation into these two functions.
In the verifier path, bpf_patch_insn_data() is used to keep global
verifier auxiliary data in sync with patched instructions. A key
question is whether this global auxiliary data should be restored
on the failure path.
Besides instructions, bpf_patch_insn_data() adjusts:
- prog->aux->poke_tab
- env->insn_array_maps
- env->subprog_info
- env->insn_aux_data
For prog->aux->poke_tab, it is only used by JIT or only meaningful after
JIT succeeds, so it does not need to be restored on the failure path.
For env->insn_array_maps, when JIT fails, programs using insn arrays
are rejected by bpf_insn_array_ready() due to missing JIT addresses.
Hence, env->insn_array_maps is only meaningful for JIT and does not need
to be restored.
For subprog_info, if jit_subprogs fails and CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON
is not enabled, kernel falls back to interpreter. In this case,
env->subprog_info is used to determine subprogram stack depth. So it
must be restored on failure.
For env->insn_aux_data, it is freed by clear_insn_aux_data() at the
end of bpf_check(). Before freeing, clear_insn_aux_data() loops over
env->insn_aux_data to release jump targets recorded in it. The loop
uses env->prog->len as the array length, but this length no longer
matches the actual size of the adjusted env->insn_aux_data array after
constants blinding.
To address it, a simple approach is to keep insn_aux_data as adjusted
after failure, since it will be freed shortly, and record its actual size
for the loop in clear_insn_aux_data(). But since clear_insn_aux_data()
uses the same index to loop over both env->prog->insnsi and env->insn_aux_data,
this approach results in incorrect index for the insnsi array. So an
alternative approach is adopted: clone the original env->insn_aux_data
before blinding and restore it after failure, similar to env->prog.
For classic BPF programs, constants blinding works as before since it
is still invoked from bpf_prog_select_runtime().

bpf_jit_subprogs() copies various fields from the main program's aux to

as bpf_token_capable() falls back to capable() in init_user_ns when

arena_vm_open() only bumps vml->mmap_count but never registers the
child VMA in arena->vma_list. The vml->vma always points at the
parent VMA, so after parent munmap the pointer dangles. If the child
then calls bpf_arena_free_pages(), zap_pages() reads the stale
vml->vma triggering use-after-free.
Fix this by preventing the arena VMA from being inherited across
fork with VM_DONTCOPY, and preventing VMA splits via the may_split
callback.
Also reject mremap with a .mremap callback returning -EINVAL. A
same-size mremap(MREMAP_FIXED) on the full arena VMA reaches
copy_vma() through the following path:
check_prep_vma() - returns 0 early: new_len == old_len
skips VM_DONTEXPAND check
prep_move_vma() - vm_start == old_addr and
vm_end == old_addr + old_len
so may_split is never called
move_vma()
copy_vma_and_data()
copy_vma()
vm_area_dup() - copies vm_private_data (vml pointer)
vm_ops->open() - bumps vml->mmap_count
vm_ops->mremap() - returns -EINVAL, rollback unmaps new VMA
The refcount ensures the rollback's arena_vm_close does not free
the vml shared with the original VMA.

// r1 = ARG_IMPRECISE{mask=BIT(0)|BIT(1)}
*(u64 *)(r1 + 0) = 0
Here the analysis should produce an equivalent of
at_stack[*r1] = join(old, none).
Move the definition of the clear_overlapping_stack_slots() in order to
have __arg_track_join() visible. Remove the OFF_IMPRECISE constant to
avoid having two ways to express imprecise offset.
Only 'offset-imprecise {frame=N, cnt=0}' remains.

Fix OOB read when copying element from a BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGROUP_STORAGE
map to another pcpu map with the same value_size that is not rounded
up to 8 bytes, and add a test case to reproduce the issue.
The root cause is that pcpu_init_value() uses copy_map_value_long() which
rounds up the copy size to 8 bytes, but CGROUP_STORAGE map values are not
8-byte aligned (e.g., 4-byte). This causes a 4-byte OOB read when
the copy is performed.

An out-of-bounds read occurs when copying element from a
BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGROUP_STORAGE map to another pcpu map with the
same value_size that is not rounded up to 8 bytes.
The issue happens when:
1. A CGROUP_STORAGE map is created with value_size not aligned to
8 bytes (e.g., 4 bytes)
2. A pcpu map is created with the same value_size (e.g., 4 bytes)
3. Update element in 2 with data in 1
pcpu_init_value assumes that all sources are rounded up to 8 bytes,
and invokes copy_map_value_long to make a data copy, However, the
assumption doesn't stand since there are some cases where the source
may not be rounded up to 8 bytes, e.g., CGROUP_STORAGE, skb->data.
the verifier verifies exactly the size that the source claims, not
the size rounded up to 8 bytes by kernel, an OOB happens when the
source has only 4 bytes while the copy size(4) is rounded up to 8.

Remove the check that rejects sleepable BPF programs from doing

in commit b00fa38a9c ("bpf: Enable non-atomic allocations in local

local_storage->lock. This is no longer a concern: all local storage
allocations now use kmalloc_nolock() which never sleeps.
In addition, since kmalloc_nolock() only accepts __GFP_ACCOUNT,
__GFP_ZERO and __GFP_NO_OBJ_EXT, the gfp_flags parameter plumbing from
bpf_*_storage_get() to bpf_local_storage_update() becomes dead code.
Remove gfp_flags from bpf_selem_alloc(), bpf_local_storage_alloc() and

storage didn't move to kmalloc_nolock() when BPF memory allocator was
replaced by it for performance reasons. Now that kfree_rcu() supports
freeing memory allocated by kmalloc_nolock(), we can move the remaining

Use kfree() instead of kfree_nolock() in bpf_selem_free_trace_rcu() and
bpf_local_storage_free_trace_rcu(). Both callbacks run in process context
where spinning is allowed, so kfree_nolock() is unnecessary.

When regsafe() compares two scalar registers that both carry
BPF_ADD_CONST, check_scalar_ids() maps their full compound id
(aka base | BPF_ADD_CONST flag) as one idmap entry. However,
it never verifies that the underlying base ids, that is, with
the flag stripped are consistent with existing idmap mappings.
This allows construction of two verifier states where the old
state has R3 = R2 + 10 (both sharing base id A) while the current
state has R3 = R4 + 10 (base id C, unrelated to R2). The idmap
creates two independent entries: A->B (for R2) and A|flag->C|flag
(for R3), without catching that A->C conflicts with A->B. State
pruning then incorrectly succeeds.
Fix this by additionally verifying base ID mapping consistency
whenever BPF_ADD_CONST is set: after mapping the compound ids,
also invoke check_ids() on the base IDs (flag bits stripped).
This ensures that if A was already mapped to B from comparing
the source register, any ADD_CONST derivative must also derive
from B, not an unrelated C.

If stack liveness logic is incorrect the poison can cause
valid program to be rejected, but it also will prevent unsafe program
to be accepted.
Allow global subprogs "read" poisoned stack slots.
The static stack liveness determined that subprog doesn't read certain

Rework func_instance identification and remove the dynamic liveness
API, completing the transition to fully static stack liveness analysis.
Replace callchain-based func_instance keys with (callsite, depth)
pairs. The full callchain (all ancestor callsites) is no longer part
of the hash key; only the immediate callsite and the call depth
matter. This does not lose precision in practice and simplifies the
data structure significantly: struct callchain is removed entirely,
func_instance stores just callsite, depth.
Drop must_write_acc propagation. Previously, must_write marks were
accumulated across successors and propagated to the caller via
propagate_to_outer_instance(). Instead, callee entry liveness
(live_before at subprog start) is pulled directly back to the
caller's callsite in analyze_subprog() after each callee returns.
Since (callsite, depth) instances are shared across different call
chains that invoke the same subprog at the same depth, must_write
marks from one call may be stale for another. To handle this,
analyze_subprog() records into a fresh_instance() when the instance
was already visited (must_write_initialized), then merge_instances()
combines the results: may_read is unioned, must_write is intersected.
This ensures only slots written on ALL paths through all call sites
are marked as guaranteed writes.
This replaces commit_stack_write_marks() logic.
Skip recursive descent into callees that receive no FP-derived
arguments (has_fp_args() check). This is needed because global
subprogram calls can push depth beyond MAX_CALL_FRAMES (max depth
is 64 for global calls but only 8 frames are accommodated for FP
passing). It also handles the case where a callback subprog cannot be
determined by argument tracking: such callbacks will be processed by
analyze_subprog() at depth 0 independently.
Update lookup_instance() (used by is_live_before queries) to search
for the func_instance with maximal depth at the corresponding
callsite, walking depth downward from frameno to 0. This accounts for
the fact that instance depth no longer corresponds 1:1 to
bpf_verifier_state->curframe, since skipped non-FP calls create gaps.
Remove the dynamic public liveness API from verifier.c:
- bpf_mark_stack_{read,write}(), bpf_reset/commit_stack_write_marks()
- bpf_update_live_stack(), bpf_reset_live_stack_callchain()
- All call sites in check_stack_{read,write}_fixed_off(),
check_stack_range_initialized(), mark_stack_slot_obj_read(),
mark/unmark_stack_slots_{dynptr,iter,irq_flag}()
- The per-instruction write mark accumulation in do_check()
- The bpf_update_live_stack() call in prepare_func_exit()
mark_stack_read() and mark_stack_write() become static functions in
liveness.c, called only from the static analysis pass. The
func_instance->updated and must_write_dropped flags are removed.

as they are no longer used.

After arg tracking reaches a fixed point, perform a single linear scan
over the converged at_in[] state and translate each memory access into
liveness read/write masks on the func_instance:
- Load/store instructions: FP-derived pointer's frame and offset(s)
are converted to half-slot masks targeting
per_frame_masks->{may_read,must_write}
- Helper/kfunc calls: record_call_access() queries
bpf_helper_stack_access_bytes() / bpf_kfunc_stack_access_bytes()
for each FP-derived argument to determine access size and direction.
Unknown access size (S64_MIN) conservatively marks all slots from
fp_off to fp+0 as read.
- Imprecise pointers (frame == ARG_IMPRECISE): conservatively mark
all slots in every frame covered by the pointer's frame bitmask
as fully read.
- Static subprog calls with unresolved arguments: conservatively mark
all frames as fully read.
Instead of a call to clean_live_states(), start cleaning the current
state continuously as registers and stack become dead since the static
analysis provides complete liveness information. This makes
clean_live_states() and bpf_verifier_state->cleaned unnecessary.

The analysis is a basis for static liveness tracking mechanism
introduced by the next two commits.
A forward fixed-point analysis that tracks which frame's FP each
register value is derived from, and at what byte offset. This is
needed because a callee can receive a pointer to its caller's stack
frame (e.g. r1 = fp-16 at the call site), then do *(u64 *)(r1 + 0)
inside the callee — a cross-frame stack access that the callee's local
liveness must attribute to the caller's stack.
Each register holds an arg_track value from a three-level lattice:
- Precise {frame=N, off=[o1,o2,...]} — known frame index and
up to 4 concrete byte offsets
- Offset-imprecise {frame=N, off_cnt=0} — known frame, unknown offset
- Fully-imprecise {frame=ARG_IMPRECISE, mask=bitmask} — unknown frame,
mask says which frames might be involved
At CFG merge points the lattice moves toward imprecision (same
frame+offset stays precise, same frame different offsets merges offset
sets or becomes offset-imprecise, different frames become
fully-imprecise with OR'd bitmask).
The analysis also tracks spills/fills to the callee's own stack
(at_stack_in/out), so FP derived values spilled and reloaded.
This pass is run recursively per call site: when subprog A calls B
with specific FP-derived arguments, B is re-analyzed with those entry
args. The recursion follows analyze_subprog -> compute_subprog_args ->
(for each call insn) -> analyze_subprog. Subprogs that receive no
FP-derived args are skipped during recursion and analyzed
independently at depth 0.

Holding the per-VMA lock across the BPF program body creates a lock
ordering problem when helpers acquire locks that depend on mmap_lock:
vm_lock -> i_rwsem -> mmap_lock -> vm_lock
Snapshot the VMA under the per-VMA lock in _next() via memcpy(), then
drop the lock before returning. The BPF program accesses only the
snapshot.
The verifier only trusts vm_mm and vm_file pointers (see
BTF_TYPE_SAFE_TRUSTED_OR_NULL in verifier.c). vm_file is reference-
counted with get_file() under the lock and released via fput() on the
next iteration or in _destroy(). vm_mm is already correct because
lock_vma_under_rcu() verifies vma->vm_mm == mm. All other pointers
are left as-is by memcpy() since the verifier treats them as untrusted.

The open-coded task_vma iterator holds mmap_lock for the entire duration
of iteration, increasing contention on this highly contended lock.
Switch to per-VMA locking. Find the next VMA via an RCU-protected maple
tree walk and lock it with lock_vma_under_rcu(). lock_next_vma() is not
used because its fallback takes mmap_read_lock(), and the iterator must
work in non-sleepable contexts.
lock_vma_under_rcu() is a point lookup (mas_walk) that finds the VMA
containing a given address but cannot iterate across gaps. An
RCU-protected vma_next() walk (mas_find) first locates the next VMA's
vm_start to pass to lock_vma_under_rcu().
Between the RCU walk and the lock, the VMA may be removed, shrunk, or
write-locked. On failure, advance past it using vm_end from the RCU
walk. Because the VMA slab is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, vm_end may be
stale; fall back to PAGE_SIZE advancement when it does not make forward
progress. Concurrent VMA insertions at addresses already passed by the
iterator are not detected.

However, the associated netdev's netns may be racing with teardown

Although rtnl_lock and bpf_devs_lock ensure the netdev pointer remains

Usage of ld_{abs,ind} instructions got extended into subprogs some time
ago via commit 09b28d76ea ("bpf: Add abnormal return checks."). These
are only allowed in subprograms when the latter are BTF annotated and
have scalar return types.
The code generator in bpf_gen_ld_abs() has an abnormal exit path (r0=0 +
exit) from legacy cBPF times. While the enforcement is on scalar return
types, the verifier must also simulate the path of abnormal exit if the
packet data load via ld_{abs,ind} failed.
This is currently not the case. Fix it by having the verifier simulate
both success and failure paths, and extend it in similar ways as we do
for tail calls. The success path (r0=unknown, continue to next insn) is
pushed onto stack for later validation and the r0=0 and return to the
caller is done on the fall-through side.

The verifier currently does not allow overwriting a referenced dynptr's
stack slot to prevent resource leak. This is because referenced dynptr
holds additional resources that requires calling specific helpers to
release. This limitation can be relaxed when there are multiple copies
of the same dynptr. Whether it is the orignial dynptr or one of its
clones, as long as there exists at least one other dynptr with the same
ref_obj_id (to be used to release the reference), its stack slot should
be allowed to be overwritten.

When a non-{add,sub} alu op such as xor is performed on a scalar
register that previously had a BPF_ADD_CONST delta, the else path
in adjust_reg_min_max_vals() only clears dst_reg->id but leaves
dst_reg->delta unchanged.
This stale delta can propagate via assign_scalar_id_before_mov()
when the register is later used in a mov. It gets a fresh id but
keeps the stale delta from the old (now-cleared) BPF_ADD_CONST.
This stale delta can later propagate leading to a verifier-vs-
runtime value mismatch.
The clear_id label already correctly clears both delta and id.
Make the else path consistent by also zeroing the delta when id
is cleared. More generally, this introduces a helper clear_scalar_id()
which internally takes care of zeroing. There are various other
locations in the verifier where only the id is cleared. By using
the helper we catch all current and future locations.

Consider the case of rX += rX where src_reg and dst_reg are pointers to
the same bpf_reg_state in adjust_reg_min_max_vals(). The latter first
modifies the dst_reg in-place, and later in the delta tracking, the
subsequent is_reg_const(src_reg)/reg_const_value(src_reg) reads the
post-{add,sub} value instead of the original source.
This is problematic since it sets an incorrect delta, which sync_linked_regs()
then propagates to linked registers, thus creating a verifier-vs-runtime
mismatch. Fix it by just skipping this corner case.

Allow accessing PTR_TO_CTX with variable offsets in syscall programs.
Fixed offsets are already enabled for all program types that do not
convert their ctx accesses, since the changes we made in the commit
de6c7d99f8 ("bpf: Relax fixed offset check for PTR_TO_CTX"). Note
that we also lift the restriction on passing syscall context into
helpers, which was not permitted before, and passing modified syscall
context into kfuncs.
The structure of check_mem_access can be mostly shared and preserved,
but we must use check_mem_region_access to correctly verify access with
variable offsets.
The check made in check_helper_mem_access is hardened to only allow
PTR_TO_CTX for syscall programs to be passed in as helper memory. This
was the original intention of the existing code anyway, and it makes
little sense for other program types' context to be utilized as a memory
buffer. In case a convincing example presents itself in the future, this
check can be relaxed further.
We also no longer use the last-byte access to simulate helper memory
access, but instead go through check_mem_region_access. Since this no
longer updates our max_ctx_offset, we must do so manually, to keep track
of the maximum offset at which the program ctx may be accessed.
Take care to ensure that when arg_type is ARG_PTR_TO_CTX, we do not
relax any fixed or variable offset constraints around PTR_TO_CTX even in
syscall programs, and require them to be passed unmodified. There are
several reasons why this is necessary. First, if we pass a modified ctx,
then the global subprog's accesses will not update the max_ctx_offset to
its true maximum offset, and can lead to out of bounds accesses. Second,
tail called program (or extension program replacing global subprog) where
their max_ctx_offset exceeds the program they are being called from can
also cause issues. For the latter, unmodified PTR_TO_CTX is the first
requirement for the fix, the second is ensuring max_ctx_offset >= the
program they are being called from, which has to be a separate change
not made in this commit.
All in all, we can hint using arg_type when we expect ARG_PTR_TO_CTX and
make our relaxation around offsets conditional on it.
Drop coverage of syscall tests from verifier_ctx.c temporarily for
negative cases until they are updated in subsequent commits.

When a dev-bound-only BPF program (BPF_F_XDP_DEV_BOUND_ONLY) undergoes
JIT compilation with constant blinding enabled (bpf_jit_harden >= 2),
bpf_jit_blind_constants() clones the program. The original prog is then
freed in bpf_jit_prog_release_other(), which updates aux->prog to point
to the surviving clone, but fails to update offload->prog.
This leaves offload->prog pointing to the freed original program. When
the network namespace is subsequently destroyed, cleanup_net() triggers
bpf_dev_bound_netdev_unregister(), which iterates ondev->progs and calls
__bpf_prog_offload_destroy(offload->prog). Accessing the freed prog
causes a page fault:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc900085f1038

The test sequence that triggers this reliably is:
1. Set net.core.bpf_jit_harden=2 (echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_harden)
2. Run xdp_metadata selftest, which creates a dev-bound-only XDP
program on a veth inside a netns (./test_progs -t xdp_metadata)
3. cleanup_net -> page fault in __bpf_prog_offload_destroy
Dev-bound-only programs are unique in that they have an offload structure
but go through the normal JIT path instead of bpf_prog_offload_compile().
This means they are subject to constant blinding's prog clone-and-replace,
while also having offload->prog that must stay in sync.
Fix this by updating offload->prog in bpf_jit_prog_release_other(),
alongside the existing aux->prog update. Both are back-pointers to
the prog that must be kept in sync when the prog is replaced.

Add two passes before the main verifier pass:
bpf_compute_const_regs() is a forward dataflow analysis that tracks
register values in R0-R9 across the program using fixed-point
iteration in reverse postorder. Each register is tracked with
a six-state lattice:
UNVISITED -> CONST(val) / MAP_PTR(map_index) /
MAP_VALUE(map_index, offset) / SUBPROG(num) -> UNKNOWN
At merge points, if two paths produce the same state and value for
a register, it stays; otherwise it becomes UNKNOWN.
The analysis handles:
- MOV, ADD, SUB, AND with immediate or register operands
- LD_IMM64 for plain constants, map FDs, map values, and subprogs
- LDX from read-only maps: constant-folds the load by reading the
map value directly via bpf_map_direct_read()
Results that fit in 32 bits are stored per-instruction in
insn_aux_data and bitmasks.
bpf_prune_dead_branches() uses the computed constants to evaluate
conditional branches. When both operands of a conditional jump are
known constants, the branch outcome is determined statically and the
instruction is rewritten to an unconditional jump.
The CFG postorder is then recomputed to reflect new control flow.
This eliminates dead edges so that subsequent liveness analysis
doesn't propagate through dead code.
Also add runtime sanity check to validate that precomputed
constants match the verifier's tracked state.

This patch fixes the invariant violations that can happen after we
refine ranges & tnum based on an incorrectly-detected branch condition.
For example, the branch is always true, but we miss it in
is_branch_taken; we then refine based on the branch being false and end
up with incoherent ranges (e.g. umax < umin).
To avoid this, we can simulate the refinement on both branches. More
specifically, this patch simulates both branches taken using
regs_refine_cond_op and reg_bounds_sync. If the resulting register
states are ill-formed on one of the branches, is_branch_taken can mark
that branch as "never taken".
On a more formal note, we can deduce a branch is not taken when
regs_refine_cond_op or reg_bounds_sync returns an ill-formed state
because the branch operators are sound (verified with Agni [1]).
Soundness means that the verifier is guaranteed to produce sound
outputs on the taken branches. On the non-taken branch (explored
because of imprecision in the bounds), the verifier is free to produce
any output. We use ill-formedness as a signal that the branch is dead
and prune that branch.
This patch moves the refinement logic for both branches from
reg_set_min_max to their own function, simulate_both_branches_taken,
which is called from is_scalar_branch_taken. As a result,
reg_set_min_max now only runs sanity checks and has been renamed to
reg_bounds_sanity_check_branches to reflect that.
We have had five patches fixing specific cases of invariant violations
in the past, all added with selftests:
- commit fbc7aef517 ("bpf: Fix u32/s32 bounds when ranges cross
min/max boundary")
- commit efc11a6678 ("bpf: Improve bounds when tnum has a single
possible value")
- commit f41345f47f ("bpf: Use tnums for JEQ/JNE is_branch_taken
logic")
- commit 00bf8d0c6c ("bpf: Improve bounds when s64 crosses sign
boundary")
- commit 6279846b9b ("bpf: Forget ranges when refining tnum after
JSET")
To confirm that this patch addresses all invariant violations, we have
also reverted those five commits and verified that their related
selftests don't cause any invariant violation warnings anymore. Those
selftests still fail but only because of misdetected branches or
less-precise bounds than expected. This demonstrates that the current
patch is enough to avoid the invariant violation warning AND that the
previous five patches are still useful to improve branch detection.
In addition to the selftests, this change was also tested with the
Cilium complexity test suite: all programs were successfully loaded and
it didn't change the number of processed instructions.

In the subsequent commit, to prune dead branches we will rely on
detecting ill-formed ranges using range_bounds_violations()
(e.g., umin > umax) after refining register bounds using
regs_refine_cond_op().
However, reg_bounds_sync() can sometimes "repair" ill-formed bounds,
potentially masking a violation that was produced by
regs_refine_cond_op().
This commit modifies reg_bounds_sync() to exit early if an invariant
violation is already present in the input.
This ensures ill-formed reg_states remain ill-formed after
reg_bounds_sync(), allowing simulate_both_branches_taken() to correctly
identify dead branches with a single check to range_bounds_violation().

In a subsequent patch, the regs_refine_cond_op and reg_bounds_sync
functions will be called in is_branch_taken instead of reg_set_min_max,
to simulate each branch's outcome. Since they will run before we branch
out, these two functions will need to work on temporary registers for
the two branches.
This refactoring patch prepares for that change, by introducing the
temporary registers on bpf_verifier_env and using them in
reg_set_min_max.
This change also allows us to save one fake_reg slot as we don't need to
allocate an additional temporary buffer in case of a BPF_K condition.
Finally, you may notice that this patch removes the check for
"false_reg1 == false_reg2" in reg_set_min_max. That check was introduced
in commit d43ad9da80 ("bpf: Skip bounds adjustment for conditional
jumps on same scalar register") to avoid an invariant violation. Given
that "env->false_reg1 == env->false_reg2" doesn't make sense and
invariant violations are addressed in a subsequent commit, this patch
just removes the check.

When backtrack_insn encounters a BPF_STX instruction with BPF_ATOMIC
and BPF_FETCH, the src register (or r0 for BPF_CMPXCHG) also acts as
a destination, thus receiving the old value from the memory location.
The current backtracking logic does not account for this. It treats
atomic fetch operations the same as regular stores where the src
register is only an input. This leads the backtrack_insn to fail to
propagate precision to the stack location, which is then not marked
as precise!
Later, the verifier's path pruning can incorrectly consider two states
equivalent when they differ in terms of stack state. Meaning, two
branches can be treated as equivalent and thus get pruned when they
should not be seen as such.
Fix it as follows: Extend the BPF_LDX handling in backtrack_insn to
also cover atomic fetch operations via is_atomic_fetch_insn() helper.
When the fetch dst register is being tracked for precision, clear it,
and propagate precision over to the stack slot. For non-stack memory,
the precision walk stops at the atomic instruction, same as regular
BPF_LDX. This covers all fetch variants.

check_mem_access() matches PTR_TO_BUF via base_type() which strips
PTR_MAYBE_NULL, allowing direct dereference without a null check.
Map iterator ctx->key and ctx->value are PTR_TO_BUF | PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
On stop callbacks these are NULL, causing a kernel NULL dereference.

Replace bpf_mem_alloc/bpf_mem_free with
kmalloc_nolock/kfree_rcu for bpf_task_work_ctx.
Replace guard(rcu_tasks_trace)() with guard(rcu)() in
bpf_task_work_irq(). The function only accesses ctx struct members
(not map values), so tasks trace protection is not needed - regular
RCU is sufficient since ctx is freed via kfree_rcu. The guard in
bpf_task_work_callback() remains as tasks trace since it accesses map
values from process context.
Sleepable BPF programs hold rcu_read_lock_trace but not
regular rcu_read_lock. Since kfree_rcu
waits for a regular RCU grace period, the ctx memory can be freed
while a sleepable program is still running. Add scoped_guard(rcu)
around the pointer read and refcount tryget in
bpf_task_work_acquire_ctx to close this race window.
Since kfree_rcu uses call_rcu internally which is not safe from
NMI context, defer destruction via irq_work when irqs are disabled.
For the lost-cmpxchg path the ctx was never published, so
kfree_nolock is safe.

uprobe programs are allowed to modify struct pt_regs.
Since the actual program type of uprobe is KPROBE, it can be abused to
modify struct pt_regs via kprobe+freplace when the kprobe attaches to
kernel functions.
For example,
SEC("?kprobe")
int kprobe(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return 0;
}
SEC("?freplace")
int freplace_kprobe(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
regs->di = 0;
return 0;
}
freplace_kprobe prog will attach to kprobe prog.
kprobe prog will attach to a kernel function.
Without this patch, when the kernel function runs, its first arg will
always be set as 0 via the freplace_kprobe prog.
To fix the abuse of kprobe_write_ctx=true via kprobe+freplace, disallow
attaching freplace programs on kprobe programs with different
kprobe_write_ctx values.

Recently, tracepoints were switched from using disabled preemption
(which acts as RCU read section) to SRCU-fast when they are not
faultable. This means that to do a proper grace period wait for programs
running in such tracepoints, we must use SRCU's grace period wait.
This is only for non-faultable tracepoints, faultable ones continue
using RCU Tasks Trace.
However, bpf_link_free() currently does call_rcu() for all cases when
the link is non-sleepable (hence, for tracepoints, non-faultable). Fix
this by doing a call_srcu() grace period wait.
As far RCU Tasks Trace gp -> RCU gp chaining is concerned, it is deemed
unnecessary for tracepoint programs. The link and program are either
accessed under RCU Tasks Trace protection, or SRCU-fast protection now.
The earlier logic of chaining both RCU Tasks Trace and RCU gp waits was
to generalize the logic, even if it conceded an extra RCU gp wait,
however that is unnecessary for tracepoints even before this change.
In practice no cost was paid since rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() was always
true. Hence we need not chaining any RCU gp after the SRCU gp.
For instance, in the non-faultable raw tracepoint, the RCU read section
of the program in __bpf_trace_run() is enclosed in the SRCU gp, likewise
for faultable raw tracepoint, the program is under the RCU Tasks Trace
protection. Hence, the outermost scope can be waited upon to ensure
correctness.
Also, sleepable programs cannot be attached to non-faultable
tracepoints, so whenever program or link is sleepable, only RCU Tasks
Trace protection is being used for the link and prog.

in check_kfunc_args(). Then, in fixup_kfunc_call() the verifier may
set the value of this argument to struct btf_struct_meta *
kptr_struct_meta from insn_aux_data.
BPF programs must pass a dummy NULL value when calling these kfuncs.
Additionally, the list and rbtree _impl kfuncs also accept an implicit
u64 argument, which doesn't require __ign suffix because it's a
scalar, and BPF programs explicitly pass 0.
Add new kfuncs with KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS [1], that correspond to each
_impl kfunc accepting meta__ign. The existing _impl kfuncs remain
unchanged for backwards compatibility.
To support this, add "btf_struct_meta" to the list of recognized

implicit args by inspecting both a non-_impl BTF prototype of the

but they weren't actually appropriately classified.
* bpf_lsm_bdev_alloc() is called when the inode for the block
device is allocated. This happens from a sleepable context so mark the
function as sleepable. When this function is called the memory for the
block device storage embedded into the inode is zeroed. That block
device cannot be meaningfully reference or interacted with at this
point. So mark it as untrusted for now.
* bpf_lsm_bdev_free() is called when the inode for the block
device is freed. A bunch of memory associated with the block device
has already been freed and there's dangling pointers in there. So mark
it as untrusted. It cannot be meaningfully referenced or interacted
with anymore. It is also called from sb->s_op->free_inode:: which
means it runs in rcu context (most of the times). So leave it as
non-sleepable.
* bpf_lsm_bdev_setintegrity() is called when a dm-verity device
is instantiated (glossing over details for simplicity of the commit
message). The block device is very much alive so it remains a trusted
hook. It's also called with device mapper's suspend lock held and so
the hook is able to sleep so mark it sleepable.

The DEVMAP_HASH branch in dev_map_redirect_multi() uses
hlist_for_each_entry_safe() to iterate hash buckets, but this function
runs under RCU protection (called from xdp_do_generic_redirect_map()
in softirq context). Concurrent writers (__dev_map_hash_update_elem,
dev_map_hash_delete_elem) modify the list using RCU primitives
(hlist_add_head_rcu, hlist_del_rcu).
hlist_for_each_entry_safe() performs plain pointer dereferences without
rcu_dereference(), missing the acquire barrier needed to pair with
writers' rcu_assign_pointer(). On weakly-ordered architectures (ARM64,
POWER), a reader can observe a partially-constructed node. It also
defeats CONFIG_PROVE_RCU lockdep validation and KCSAN data-race
detection.
Replace with hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() using rcu_read_lock_bh_held()
as the lockdep condition, consistent with the rcu_dereference_check()
used in the DEVMAP (non-hash) branch of the same functions. Also fix
the same incorrect lockdep_is_held(&dtab->index_lock) condition in
dev_map_enqueue_multi(), where the lock is not held either.

Add BPF verifier support for single- and multi-level pointer
parameters and return values in BPF trampolines by treating these
parameters as SCALAR_VALUE.
This extends the existing support for int and void pointers that are
already treated as SCALAR_VALUE.
This provides consistent logic for single and multi-level pointers:
if a type is treated as SCALAR for a single-level pointer, the same
applies to multi-level pointers. The exception is pointer-to-struct,
which is currently PTR_TO_BTF_ID for single-level but treated as
scalar for multi-level pointers since the verifier lacks context
to infer the size of target memory regions.
Safety is ensured by existing BTF verification, which rejects invalid
pointer types at the BTF verification stage.

Simplify tnum_step() from a 10-variable algorithm into a straight
line sequence of bitwise operations.
Problem Reduction:
tnum_step(): Given a tnum `(tval, tmask)` where `tval & tmask == 0`,
and a value `z` with `tval ≤ z < (tval | tmask)`, find the smallest
`r > z`, a tnum-satisfying value, i.e., `r & ~tmask == tval`.
Every tnum-satisfying value has the form tval | s where s is a subset
of tmask bits (s & ~tmask == 0). Since tval and tmask are disjoint:
tval | s = tval + s
Similarly z = tval + d where d = z - tval, so r > z becomes:
tval + s > tval + d
s > d
The problem reduces to: find the smallest s, a subset of tmask, such
that s > d.
Notice that `s` must be a subset of tmask, the problem now is simplified.
Algorithm:
The mask bits of `d` form a "counter" that we want to increment by one,
but the counter has gaps at the fixed-bit positions. A normal +1 would
stop at the first 0-bit it meets; we need it to skip over fixed-bit
gaps and land on the next mask bit.
Step 1 -- plug the gaps:
d | carry_mask | ~tmask
- ~tmask fills all fixed-bit positions with 1.
- carry_mask = (1 << fls64(d & ~tmask)) - 1 fills all positions
(including mask positions) below the highest non-mask bit of d.
After this, the only remaining 0s are mask bits above the highest
non-mask bit of d where d is also 0 -- exactly the positions where
the carry can validly land.
Step 2 -- increment:
(d | carry_mask | ~tmask) + 1
Adding 1 flips all trailing 1s to 0 and sets the first 0 to 1. Since
every gap has been plugged, that first 0 is guaranteed to be a mask bit
above all non-mask bits of d.
Step 3 -- mask:
((d | carry_mask | ~tmask) + 1) & tmask
Strip the scaffolding, keeping only mask bits. Call the result inc.
Step 4 -- result:
tval | inc
Reattach the fixed bits.
A simple 8-bit example:
tmask: 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0
d: 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 (d = 162)
^
non-mask 1 at bit 5
With carry_mask = 0b00111111 (smeared from bit 5):
d|carry|~tm 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1
+ 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0
& tmask 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0
The patch passes my local test: test_verifier, test_progs for
`-t verifier` and `-t reg_bounds`.

Jenny reported that in sync_linked_regs() the BPF_ADD_CONST32 flag is
checked on known_reg (the register narrowed by a conditional branch)
instead of reg (the linked target register created by an alu32 operation).
Example case with reg:
1. r6 = bpf_get_prandom_u32()
2. r7 = r6 (linked, same id)
3. w7 += 5 (alu32 -- r7 gets BPF_ADD_CONST32, zero-extended by CPU)
4. if w6 < 0xFFFFFFFC goto safe (narrows r6 to [0xFFFFFFFC, 0xFFFFFFFF])
5. sync_linked_regs() propagates to r7 but does NOT call zext_32_to_64()
6. Verifier thinks r7 is [0x100000001, 0x100000004] instead of [1, 4]
Since known_reg above does not have BPF_ADD_CONST32 set above, zext_32_to_64()
is never called on alu32-derived linked registers. This causes the verifier
to track incorrect 64-bit bounds, while the CPU correctly zero-extends the
32-bit result.
The code checking known_reg->id was correct however (see scalars_alu32_wrap
selftest case), but the real fix needs to handle both directions - zext
propagation should be done when either register has BPF_ADD_CONST32, since
the linked relationship involves a 32-bit operation regardless of which
side has the flag.
Example case with known_reg (exercised also by scalars_alu32_wrap):
1. r1 = r0; w1 += 0x100 (alu32 -- r1 gets BPF_ADD_CONST32)
2. if r1 > 0x80 - known_reg = r1 (has BPF_ADD_CONST32), reg = r0 (doesn't)
Hence, fix it by checking for (reg->id | known_reg->id) & BPF_ADD_CONST32.
Moreover, sync_linked_regs() also has a soundness issue when two linked
registers used different ALU widths: one with BPF_ADD_CONST32 and the
other with BPF_ADD_CONST64. The delta relationship between linked registers
assumes the same arithmetic width though. When one register went through
alu32 (CPU zero-extends the 32-bit result) and the other went through
alu64 (no zero-extension), the propagation produces incorrect bounds.
Example:
r6 = bpf_get_prandom_u32() // fully unknown
if r6 >= 0x100000000 goto out // constrain r6 to [0, U32_MAX]
r7 = r6
w7 += 1 // alu32: r7.id = N | BPF_ADD_CONST32
r8 = r6
r8 += 2 // alu64: r8.id = N | BPF_ADD_CONST64
if r7 < 0xFFFFFFFF goto out // narrows r7 to [0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF]
At the branch on r7, sync_linked_regs() runs with known_reg=r7
(BPF_ADD_CONST32) and reg=r8 (BPF_ADD_CONST64). The delta path
computes:
r8 = r7 + (delta_r8 - delta_r7) = 0xFFFFFFFF + (2 - 1) = 0x100000000
Then, because known_reg->id has BPF_ADD_CONST32, zext_32_to_64(r8) is
called, truncating r8 to [0, 0]. But r8 used a 64-bit ALU op -- the
CPU does NOT zero-extend it. The actual CPU value of r8 is
0xFFFFFFFE + 2 = 0x100000000, not 0. The verifier now underestimates
r8's 64-bit bounds, which is a soundness violation.
Fix sync_linked_regs() by skipping propagation when the two registers
have mixed ALU widths (one BPF_ADD_CONST32, the other BPF_ADD_CONST64).
Lastly, fix regsafe() used for path pruning: the existing checks used
"& BPF_ADD_CONST" to test for offset linkage, which treated
BPF_ADD_CONST32 and BPF_ADD_CONST64 as equivalent.

maybe_fork_scalars() is called for both BPF_AND and BPF_OR when the
source operand is a constant. When dst has signed range [-1, 0], it
forks the verifier state: the pushed path gets dst = 0, the current
path gets dst = -1.
For BPF_AND this is correct: 0 & K == 0.
For BPF_OR this is wrong: 0 | K == K, not 0.
The pushed path therefore tracks dst as 0 when the runtime value is K,
producing an exploitable verifier/runtime divergence that allows
out-of-bounds map access.
Fix this by passing env->insn_idx (instead of env->insn_idx + 1) to
push_stack(), so the pushed path re-executes the ALU instruction with
dst = 0 and naturally computes the correct result for any opcode.

The BPF interpreter's signed 32-bit division and modulo handlers use
the kernel abs() macro on s32 operands. The abs() macro documentation
(include/linux/math.h) explicitly states the result is undefined when
the input is the type minimum. When DST contains S32_MIN (0x80000000),
abs((s32)DST) triggers undefined behavior and returns S32_MIN unchanged
on arm64/x86. This value is then sign-extended to u64 as
0xFFFFFFFF80000000, causing do_div() to compute the wrong result.
The verifier's abstract interpretation (scalar32_min_max_sdiv) computes
the mathematically correct result for range tracking, creating a
verifier/interpreter mismatch that can be exploited for out-of-bounds
map value access.
Introduce abs_s32() which handles S32_MIN correctly by casting to u32
before negating, avoiding signed overflow entirely. Replace all 8
abs((s32)...) call sites in the interpreter's sdiv32/smod32 handlers.
s32 is the only affected case -- the s64 division/modulo handlers do
not use abs().

The sleepable context check for global function calls in

already performs. Replace the open-coded check with a call to
in_sleepable_context() and use non_sleepable_context_description() for

check_kfunc_call().
Note that in_sleepable_context() also checks active_locks, which
overlaps with the existing active_locks check above it. However, the two
checks serve different purposes: the active_locks check rejects all
global function calls while holding a lock (not just sleepable ones), so
it must remain as a separate guard.

kfuncs in various non-sleepable contexts (RCU, preempt-disabled, IRQ-

in_sleepable_context(), so replace them with a single consolidated

This also simplifies the preempt lock tracking by flattening the nested

preempt_enable checks for underflow and decrements. The sleepable check
is kept as a separate block since it is logically distinct from the lock

process_bpf_exit_full() passes check_lock = !curframe to
check_resource_leak(), which is false in cases when bpf_throw() is
called from a static subprog. This makes check_resource_leak() to skip
validation of active_rcu_locks, active_preempt_locks, and
active_irq_id on exception exits from subprogs.
At runtime bpf_throw() unwinds the stack via ORC without releasing any
user-acquired locks, which may cause various issues as the result.
Fix by setting check_lock = true for exception exits regardless of
curframe, since exceptions bypass all intermediate frame
cleanup. Update the error message prefix to "bpf_throw" for exception
exits to distinguish them from normal BPF_EXIT.
Fix reject_subprog_with_rcu_read_lock test which was previously
passing for the wrong reason. Test program returned directly from the
subprog call without closing the RCU section, so the error was
triggered by the unclosed RCU lock on normal exit, not by
bpf_throw. Update __msg annotations for affected tests to match the
new "bpf_throw" error prefix.
The spin_lock case is not affected because they are already checked [1]
at the call site in do_check_insn() before bpf_throw can run.

Currently, local storage may deadlock when deferring freeing selem or
local storage through kfree_rcu(), call_rcu() or call_rcu_tasks_trace()
in NMI or reentrant. Since deleting selem in NMI is an unlikely use
case, partially mitigate it by returning error when calling from
bpf_xxx_storage_delete() helpers in NMI. Note that, it is still possible
to deadlock through reentrant. A full mitigation requires returning
error when irqs_disabled() is true, which, however is too heavy-handed
for bpf_xxx_storage_delete().
The long-term solution requires _nolock versions of call_rcu. Another
possible solution is to defer the free through irq_work [0], but it
would grow the size of selem, which is non-ideal.
The check is only needed in bpf_selem_unlink(), which is used by helpers
and syscalls. bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() is fine as it is called during
map and owner tear down that never run in NMI or reentrant.

Gregory reported in [0] that the global_map_resize test when run in
repeatedly ends up failing during program load. This stems from the fact
that BTF reference has not dropped to zero after the previous run's
module is unloaded, and the older module's BTF is still discoverable and
visible. Later, in libbpf, load_module_btfs() will find the ID for this
stale BTF, open its fd, and then it will be used during program load
where later steps taking module reference using btf_try_get_module()
fail since the underlying module for the BTF is gone.
Logically, once a module is unloaded, it's associated BTF artifacts
should become hidden. The BTF object inside the kernel may still remain
alive as long its reference counts are alive, but it should no longer be
discoverable.
To fix this, let us call btf_free_id() from the MODULE_STATE_GOING case
for the module unload to free the BTF associated IDR entry, and disable
its discovery once module unload returns to user space. If a race
happens during unload, the outcome is non-deterministic anyway. However,
user space should be able to rely on the guarantee that once it has
synchronously established a successful module unload, no more stale
artifacts associated with this module can be obtained subsequently.
Note that we must be careful to not invoke btf_free_id() in btf_put()
when btf_is_module() is true now. There could be a window where the
module unload drops a non-terminal reference, frees the IDR, but the
same ID gets reused and the second unconditional btf_free_id() ends up
releasing an unrelated entry.
To avoid a special case for btf_is_module() case, set btf->id to zero to
make btf_free_id() idempotent, such that we can unconditionally invoke it
from btf_put(), and also from the MODULE_STATE_GOING case. Since zero is
an invalid IDR, the idr_remove() should be a noop.
Note that we can be sure that by the time we reach final btf_put() for
btf_is_module() case, the btf_free_id() is already done, since the
module itself holds the BTF reference, and it will call this function
for the BTF before dropping its own reference.

The BPF verifier currently enforces a call stack depth of 8 frames,
regardless of the actual stack space consumption of those frames. The
limit is necessary for static call stacks, because the bookkeeping data
structures used by the verifier when stepping into static functions
during verification only support 8 stack frames. However, this
limitation only matters for static stack frames: Global subprogs are
verified by themselves and do not require limiting the call depth.
Relax this limitation to only apply to static stack frames. Verification
now only fails when there is a sequence of 8 calls to non-global
subprogs. Calling into a global subprog resets the counter. This allows
deeper call stacks, provided all frames still fit in the stack.
The change does not increase the maximum size of the call stack, only
the maximum number of frames we can place in it.
Also change the progs/test_global_func3.c selftest to use static
functions, since with the new patch it would otherwise unexpectedly
pass verification.

In commit 5dbb19b16a ("bpf: Add third round of bounds deduction"), I
added a new round of bounds deduction because two rounds were not enough
to converge to a fixed point. This commit slightly refactor the bounds
deduction logic such that two rounds are enough.
In [1], Eduard noticed that after we improved the refinement logic, a
third call to the bounds deduction (__reg_deduce_bounds) was needed to
converge to a fixed point. More specifically, we needed this third call
to improve the s64 range using the s32 range. We added the third call
and postponed a more detailed analysis of the refinement logic.
I've been looking into this more recently. The register refinement
consists of the following calls.
__update_reg_bounds();
3 x __reg_deduce_bounds() {
deduce_bounds_32_from_64();
deduce_bounds_32_from_32();
deduce_bounds_64_from_64();
deduce_bounds_64_from_32();
};
__reg_bound_offset();
__update_reg_bounds();
From this, we can observe that we first improve the 32bit ranges from
the 64bit ranges in deduce_bounds_32_from_64, then improve the 64bit
ranges on their own in deduce_bounds_64_from_64. Intuitively, if we
were to improve the 64bit ranges on their own *before* we use them to
improve the 32bit ranges, we may reach a fixed point earlier.
In a similar manner, using CBMC, Eduard found that it's best to improve
the 32bit ranges on their own *after* we've improve them using the 64bit
ranges. That is, running deduce_bounds_32_from_32 after
deduce_bounds_32_from_64.
These changes allow us to lose one call to __reg_deduce_bounds. Without
this reordering, the test "verifier_bounds/bounds deduction cross sign
boundary, negative overlap" fails when removing one call to
__reg_deduce_bounds. In some cases, this change can even improve
precision a little bit, as illustrated in the new selftest in the next
patch.
As expected, this change didn't have any impact on the number of
instructions processed when running it through the Cilium complexity
test suite [2].

BPF_ST | BPF_PROBE_MEM32 immediate stores are not handled by
bpf_jit_blind_insn(), allowing user-controlled 32-bit immediates to

The root cause is that convert_ctx_accesses() rewrites BPF_ST|BPF_MEM
to BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 for arena pointer stores during verification,
before bpf_jit_blind_constants() runs during JIT compilation. The
blinding switch only matches BPF_ST|BPF_MEM (mode 0x60), not
BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 (mode 0xa0). The instruction falls through
unblinded.
Add BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 cases to bpf_jit_blind_insn() alongside the
existing BPF_ST|BPF_MEM cases. The blinding transformation is identical:
load the blinded immediate into BPF_REG_AX via mov+xor, then convert
the immediate store to a register store (BPF_STX).
The rewritten STX instruction must preserve the BPF_PROBE_MEM32 mode so
the architecture JIT emits the correct arena addressing (R12-based on
x86-64). Cannot use the BPF_STX_MEM() macro here because it hardcodes
BPF_MEM mode; construct the instruction directly instead.

When a register undergoes a BPF_END (byte swap) operation, its scalar
value is mutated in-place. If this register previously shared a scalar ID
with another register (e.g., after an `r1 = r0` assignment), this tie must
be broken.
Currently, the verifier misses resetting `dst_reg->id` to 0 for BPF_END.
Consequently, if a conditional jump checks the swapped register, the
verifier incorrectly propagates the learned bounds to the linked register,
leading to false confidence in the linked register's value and potentially
allowing out-of-bounds memory accesses.
Fix this by explicitly resetting `dst_reg->id` to 0 in the BPF_END case
to break the scalar tie, similar to how BPF_NEG handles it via
`__mark_reg_known`.

- regsafe() uses check_ids() to verify that cached and current states
have identical register id mapping.
- func_states_equal() calls regsafe() only for registers computed as
live by compute_live_registers().
- clean_live_states() is supposed to remove dead registers from cached
states, but it can skip states belonging to an iterator-based loop.
- collect_linked_regs() collects all registers sharing the same id,
ignoring the marks computed by compute_live_registers().
Linked registers are stored in the state's jump history.
- backtrack_insn() marks all linked registers for an instruction
as precise whenever one of the linked registers is precise.
The above might lead to a scenario:
- There is an instruction I with register rY known to be dead at I.
- Instruction I is reached via two paths: first A, then B.
- On path A:
- There is an id link between registers rX and rY.
- Checkpoint C is created at I.
- Linked register set {rX, rY} is saved to the jump history.
- rX is marked as precise at I, causing both rX and rY
to be marked precise at C.
- On path B:
- There is no id link between registers rX and rY,
otherwise register states are sub-states of those in C.
- Because rY is dead at I, check_ids() returns true.
- Current state is considered equal to checkpoint C,
propagate_precision() propagates spurious precision
mark for register rY along the path B.
- Depending on a program, this might hit verifier_bug()
in the backtrack_insn(), e.g. if rY ∈ [r1..r5]
and backtrack_insn() spots a function call.
The reproducer program is in the next patch.
This was hit by sched_ext scx_lavd scheduler code.
Changes in tests:
- verifier_scalar_ids.c selftests need modification to preserve
some registers as live for __msg() checks.
- exceptions_assert.c adjusted to match changes in the verifier log,
R0 is dead after conditional instruction and thus does not get
range.
- precise.c adjusted to match changes in the verifier log, register r9
is dead after comparison and it's range is not important for test.

Same as in __reg64_deduce_bounds(), refine s32/u32 ranges
in __reg32_deduce_bounds() in the following situations:
- s32 range crosses U32_MAX/0 boundary, positive part of the s32 range
overlaps with u32 range:
0 U32_MAX
| [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx u32 range xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
|xxxxx s32 range xxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxx|
0 S32_MAX S32_MIN -1
- s32 range crosses U32_MAX/0 boundary, negative part of the s32 range
overlaps with u32 range:
0 U32_MAX
| [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx u32 range xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
|xxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxxxxxxx s32 range |
0 S32_MAX S32_MIN -1
- No refinement if ranges overlap in two intervals.
This helps for e.g. consider the following program:
call %[bpf_get_prandom_u32];
w0 &= 0xffffffff;
if w0 < 0x3 goto 1f; // on fall-through u32 range [3..U32_MAX]
if w0 s> 0x1 goto 1f; // on fall-through s32 range [S32_MIN..1]
if w0 s< 0x0 goto 1f; // range can be narrowed to [S32_MIN..-1]
r10 = 0;
1: ...;
The reg_bounds.c selftest is updated to incorporate identical logic,
refinement based on non-overflowing range halves:
((x ∩ [0, smax]) ∩ (y ∩ [0, smax])) ∪
((x ∩ [smin,-1]) ∩ (y ∩ [smin,-1]))

The root cause of this bug is that when 'bpf_link_put' reduces the
refcount of 'shim_link->link.link' to zero, the resource is considered
released but may still be referenced via 'tr->progs_hlist' in
'cgroup_shim_find'. The actual cleanup of 'tr->progs_hlist' in
'bpf_shim_tramp_link_release' is deferred. During this window, another
process can cause a use-after-free via 'bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shim'.
Based on Martin KaFai Lau's suggestions, I have created a simple patch.
To fix this:
Add an atomic non-zero check in 'bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shim'.
Only increment the refcount if it is not already zero.
Testing:
I verified the fix by adding a delay in
'bpf_shim_tramp_link_release' to make the bug easier to trigger:
static void bpf_shim_tramp_link_release(struct bpf_link *link)
{
/* ... */
if (!shim_link->trampoline)
return;
+ msleep(100);
WARN_ON_ONCE(bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog(&shim_link->link,
shim_link->trampoline, NULL));
bpf_trampoline_put(shim_link->trampoline);
}
Before the patch, running a PoC easily reproduced the crash(almost 100%)
with a call trace similar to KaiyanM's report.
After the patch, the bug no longer occurs even after millions of
iterations.

Both main progs and subprogs use the same function in the verifier,
check_return_code, to verify the type and value range of the register
being returned. However, subprogs only need a subset of the logic in
check_return_code. this also goes the way - check_return_code explicitly
checks whether it is handling a subprogram in multiple places, complicating
the logic. Separate the handling of the two into separate functions.

The limitation on fixed offsets stems from the fact that certain program
types rewrite the accesses to the context structure and translate them
to accesses to the real underlying type. Technically, in the past, we
could have stashed the register offset in insn_aux and made rewrites
work, but we've never needed it in the past since the offset for such
context structures easily fit in the s16 signed instruction offset.
Regardless, the consequence is that for program types where the program
type's verifier ops doesn't supply a convert_ctx_access callback, we
unnecessarily reject accesses with a modified ctx pointer (i.e., one
whose offset has been shifted) in check_ptr_off_reg. Make an exception
for such program types (like syscall, tracepoint, raw_tp, etc.).
Pass in fixed_off_ok as true to __check_ptr_off_reg for such cases, and
accumulate the register offset into insn->off passed to check_ctx_access.
In particular, the accumulation is critical since we need to correctly
track the max_ctx_offset which is used for bounds checking the buffer
for syscall programs at runtime.

cpu_map_bpf_prog_run_xdp() handles XDP_PASS, XDP_REDIRECT, and
XDP_DROP but is missing an XDP_ABORTED case. Without it, XDP_ABORTED
falls into the default case which logs a misleading "invalid XDP

Add the missing XDP_ABORTED case with trace_xdp_exception(), matching
the handling already present in the skb path (cpu_map_bpf_prog_run_skb),
devmap (dev_map_bpf_prog_run), and the generic XDP path (do_xdp_generic).
Also pass xdpf->dev_rx instead of NULL to bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action()
in the default case, so the warning includes the actual device name.
This aligns with the generic XDP path in net/core/dev.c which already
passes the real device.

We're hitting an invariant violation in Cilium that sometimes leads to
BPF programs being rejected and Cilium failing to start [1]. The
following extract from verifier logs shows what's happening:
from 201 to 236: R1=0 R6=ctx() R7=1 R9=scalar(smin=umin=smin32=umin32=3584,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=3840,var_off=(0xe00; 0x100)) R10=fp0
236: R1=0 R6=ctx() R7=1 R9=scalar(smin=umin=smin32=umin32=3584,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=3840,var_off=(0xe00; 0x100)) R10=fp0
; if (magic == MARK_MAGIC_HOST || magic == MARK_MAGIC_OVERLAY || magic == MARK_MAGIC_ENCRYPT) @ bpf_host.c:1337
236: (16) if w9 == 0xe00 goto pc+45 ; R9=scalar(smin=umin=smin32=umin32=3585,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=3840,var_off=(0xe00; 0x100))
237: (16) if w9 == 0xf00 goto pc+1
verifier bug: REG INVARIANTS VIOLATION (false_reg1): range bounds violation u64=[0xe01, 0xe00] s64=[0xe01, 0xe00] u32=[0xe01, 0xe00] s32=[0xe01, 0xe00] var_off=(0xe00, 0x0)
We reach instruction 236 with two possible values for R9, 0xe00 and
0xf00. This is perfectly reflected in the tnum, but of course the ranges
are less accurate and cover [0xe00; 0xf00]. Taking the fallthrough path
at instruction 236 allows the verifier to reduce the range to
[0xe01; 0xf00]. The tnum is however not updated.
With these ranges, at instruction 237, the verifier is not able to
deduce that R9 is always equal to 0xf00. Hence the fallthrough pass is
explored first, the verifier refines the bounds using the assumption
that R9 != 0xf00, and ends up with an invariant violation.
This pattern of impossible branch + bounds refinement is common to all
invariant violations seen so far. The long-term solution is likely to
rely on the refinement + invariant violation check to detect dead
branches, as started by Eduard. To fix the current issue, we need
something with less refactoring that we can backport.
This patch uses the tnum_step helper introduced in the previous patch to
detect the above situation. In particular, three cases are now detected
in the bounds refinement:
1. The u64 range and the tnum only overlap in umin.
u64: ---[xxxxxx]-----
tnum: --xx----------x-
2. The u64 range and the tnum only overlap in the maximum value
represented by the tnum, called tmax.
u64: ---[xxxxxx]-----
tnum: xx-----x--------
3. The u64 range and the tnum only overlap in between umin (excluded)
and umax.
u64: ---[xxxxxx]-----
tnum: xx----x-------x-
To detect these three cases, we call tnum_step(tnum, umin), which
returns the smallest member of the tnum greater than umin, called
tnum_next here. We're in case (1) if umin is part of the tnum and
tnum_next is greater than umax. We're in case (2) if umin is not part of
the tnum and tnum_next is equal to tmax. Finally, we're in case (3) if
umin is not part of the tnum, tnum_next is inferior or equal to umax,
and calling tnum_step a second time gives us a value past umax.
This change implements these three cases. With it, the above bytecode
looks as follows:
0: (85) call bpf_get_prandom_u32#7 ; R0=scalar()
1: (47) r0 |= 3584 ; R0=scalar(smin=0x8000000000000e00,umin=umin32=3584,smin32=0x80000e00,var_off=(0xe00; 0xfffffffffffff1ff))
2: (57) r0 &= 3840 ; R0=scalar(smin=umin=smin32=umin32=3584,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=3840,var_off=(0xe00; 0x100))
3: (15) if r0 == 0xe00 goto pc+2 ; R0=3840
4: (15) if r0 == 0xf00 goto pc+1
4: R0=3840
6: (95) exit
In addition to the new selftests, this change was also verified with
Agni [3]. For the record, the raw SMT is available at [4]. The property
it verifies is that: If a concrete value x is contained in all input
abstract values, after __update_reg_bounds, it will continue to be
contained in all output abstract values.

This commit introduces tnum_step(), a function that, when given t, and a
number z returns the smallest member of t larger than z. The number z
must be greater or equal to the smallest member of t and less than the
largest member of t.
The first step is to compute j, a number that keeps all of t's known
bits, and matches all unknown bits to z's bits. Since j is a member of
the t, it is already a candidate for result. However, we want our result
to be (minimally) greater than z.
There are only two possible cases:
(1) Case j <= z. In this case, we want to increase the value of j and
make it > z.
(2) Case j > z. In this case, we want to decrease the value of j while
keeping it > z.
(Case 1) j <= z
t = xx11x0x0
z = 10111101 (189)
j = 10111000 (184)
^
k
(Case 1.1) Let's first consider the case where j < z. We will address j
== z later.
Since z > j, there had to be a bit position that was 1 in z and a 0 in
j, beyond which all positions of higher significance are equal in j and
z. Further, this position could not have been unknown in a, because the
unknown positions of a match z. This position had to be a 1 in z and
known 0 in t.
Let k be position of the most significant 1-to-0 flip. In our example, k
= 3 (starting the count at 1 at the least significant bit). Setting (to
1) the unknown bits of t in positions of significance smaller than
k will not produce a result > z. Hence, we must set/unset the unknown
bits at positions of significance higher than k. Specifically, we look
for the next larger combination of 1s and 0s to place in those
positions, relative to the combination that exists in z. We can achieve
this by concatenating bits at unknown positions of t into an integer,
adding 1, and writing the bits of that result back into the
corresponding bit positions previously extracted from z.
>From our example, considering only positions of significance greater
than k:
t = xx..x
z = 10..1
+ 1
-----
11..0
This is the exact combination 1s and 0s we need at the unknown bits of t
in positions of significance greater than k. Further, our result must
only increase the value minimally above z. Hence, unknown bits in
positions of significance smaller than k should remain 0. We finally
have,
result = 11110000 (240)
(Case 1.2) Now consider the case when j = z, for example
t = 1x1x0xxx
z = 10110100 (180)
j = 10110100 (180)
Matching the unknown bits of the t to the bits of z yielded exactly z.
To produce a number greater than z, we must set/unset the unknown bits
in t, and *all* the unknown bits of t candidates for being set/unset. We
can do this similar to Case 1.1, by adding 1 to the bits extracted from
the masked bit positions of z. Essentially, this case is equivalent to
Case 1.1, with k = 0.
t = 1x1x0xxx
z = .0.1.100
+ 1
---------
.0.1.101
This is the exact combination of bits needed in the unknown positions of
t. After recalling the known positions of t, we get
result = 10110101 (181)
(Case 2) j > z
t = x00010x1
z = 10000010 (130)
j = 10001011 (139)
^
k
Since j > z, there had to be a bit position which was 0 in z, and a 1 in
j, beyond which all positions of higher significance are equal in j and
z. This position had to be a 0 in z and known 1 in t. Let k be the
position of the most significant 0-to-1 flip. In our example, k = 4.
Because of the 0-to-1 flip at position k, a member of t can become
greater than z if the bits in positions greater than k are themselves >=
to z. To make that member *minimally* greater than z, the bits in
positions greater than k must be exactly = z. Hence, we simply match all
of t's unknown bits in positions more significant than k to z's bits. In
positions less significant than k, we set all t's unknown bits to 0
to retain minimality.
In our example, in positions of greater significance than k (=4),
t=x000. These positions are matched with z (1000) to produce 1000. In
positions of lower significance than k, t=10x1. All unknown bits are set
to 0 to produce 1001. The final result is:
result = 10001001 (137)
This concludes the computation for a result > z that is a member of t.
The procedure for tnum_step() in this commit implements the idea
described above. As a proof of correctness, we verified the algorithm
against a logical specification of tnum_step. The specification asserts
the following about the inputs t, z and output res that:
1. res is a member of t, and
2. res is strictly greater than z, and
3. there does not exist another value res2 such that
3a. res2 is also a member of t, and
3b. res2 is greater than z
3c. res2 is smaller than res
We checked the implementation against this logical specification using
an SMT solver. The verification formula in SMTLIB format is available
at [1]. The verification returned an "unsat": indicating that no input
assignment exists for which the implementation and the specification
produce different outputs.
In addition, we also automatically generated the logical encoding of the
C implementation using Agni [2] and verified it against the same
specification. This verification also returned an "unsat", confirming
that the implementation is equivalent to the specification. The formula
for this check is also available at [3].

On PREEMPT_RT kernels, the per-CPU xdp_dev_bulk_queue (bq) can be
accessed concurrently by multiple preemptible tasks on the same CPU.
The original code assumes bq_enqueue() and __dev_flush() run atomically
with respect to each other on the same CPU, relying on
local_bh_disable() to prevent preemption. However, on PREEMPT_RT,
local_bh_disable() only calls migrate_disable() (when
PREEMPT_RT_NEEDS_BH_LOCK is not set) and does not disable
preemption, which allows CFS scheduling to preempt a task during
bq_xmit_all(), enabling another task on the same CPU to enter
bq_enqueue() and operate on the same per-CPU bq concurrently.
This leads to several races:
1. Double-free / use-after-free on bq->q[]: bq_xmit_all() snapshots
cnt = bq->count, then iterates bq->q[0..cnt-1] to transmit frames.
If preempted after the snapshot, a second task can call bq_enqueue()
-> bq_xmit_all() on the same bq, transmitting (and freeing) the
same frames. When the first task resumes, it operates on stale
pointers in bq->q[], causing use-after-free.
2. bq->count and bq->q[] corruption: concurrent bq_enqueue() modifying
bq->count and bq->q[] while bq_xmit_all() is reading them.
3. dev_rx/xdp_prog teardown race: __dev_flush() clears bq->dev_rx and
bq->xdp_prog after bq_xmit_all(). If preempted between
bq_xmit_all() return and bq->dev_rx = NULL, a preempting
bq_enqueue() sees dev_rx still set (non-NULL), skips adding bq to
the flush_list, and enqueues a frame. When __dev_flush() resumes,
it clears dev_rx and removes bq from the flush_list, orphaning the
newly enqueued frame.
4. __list_del_clearprev() on flush_node: similar to the cpumap race,
both tasks can call __list_del_clearprev() on the same flush_node,
the second dereferences the prev pointer already set to NULL.
The race between task A (__dev_flush -> bq_xmit_all) and task B
(bq_enqueue -> bq_xmit_all) on the same CPU:
Task A (xdp_do_flush) Task B (ndo_xdp_xmit redirect)
---------------------- --------------------------------
__dev_flush(flush_list)
bq_xmit_all(bq)
cnt = bq->count /* e.g. 16 */
/* start iterating bq->q[] */
<-- CFS preempts Task A -->
bq_enqueue(dev, xdpf)
bq->count == DEV_MAP_BULK_SIZE
bq_xmit_all(bq, 0)
cnt = bq->count /* same 16! */
ndo_xdp_xmit(bq->q[])
/* frames freed by driver */
bq->count = 0
<-- Task A resumes -->
ndo_xdp_xmit(bq->q[])
/* use-after-free: frames already freed! */
Fix this by adding a local_lock_t to xdp_dev_bulk_queue and acquiring

On PREEMPT_RT kernels, the per-CPU xdp_bulk_queue (bq) can be accessed
concurrently by multiple preemptible tasks on the same CPU.
The original code assumes bq_enqueue() and __cpu_map_flush() run
atomically with respect to each other on the same CPU, relying on
local_bh_disable() to prevent preemption. However, on PREEMPT_RT,
local_bh_disable() only calls migrate_disable() (when
PREEMPT_RT_NEEDS_BH_LOCK is not set) and does not disable
preemption, which allows CFS scheduling to preempt a task during
bq_flush_to_queue(), enabling another task on the same CPU to enter
bq_enqueue() and operate on the same per-CPU bq concurrently.
This leads to several races:
1. Double __list_del_clearprev(): after bq->count is reset in
bq_flush_to_queue(), a preempting task can call bq_enqueue() ->
bq_flush_to_queue() on the same bq when bq->count reaches
CPU_MAP_BULK_SIZE. Both tasks then call __list_del_clearprev()
on the same bq->flush_node, the second call dereferences the
prev pointer that was already set to NULL by the first.
2. bq->count and bq->q[] races: concurrent bq_enqueue() can corrupt
the packet queue while bq_flush_to_queue() is processing it.
The race between task A (__cpu_map_flush -> bq_flush_to_queue) and
task B (bq_enqueue -> bq_flush_to_queue) on the same CPU:
Task A (xdp_do_flush) Task B (cpu_map_enqueue)
---------------------- ------------------------
bq_flush_to_queue(bq)
spin_lock(&q->producer_lock)
/* flush bq->q[] to ptr_ring */
bq->count = 0
spin_unlock(&q->producer_lock)
bq_enqueue(rcpu, xdpf)
<-- CFS preempts Task A --> bq->q[bq->count++] = xdpf
/* ... more enqueues until full ... */
bq_flush_to_queue(bq)
spin_lock(&q->producer_lock)
/* flush to ptr_ring */
spin_unlock(&q->producer_lock)
__list_del_clearprev(flush_node)
/* sets flush_node.prev = NULL */
<-- Task A resumes -->
__list_del_clearprev(flush_node)
flush_node.prev->next = ...
/* prev is NULL -> kernel oops */
Fix this by adding a local_lock_t to xdp_bulk_queue and acquiring it
in bq_enqueue() and __cpu_map_flush(). These paths already run under
local_bh_disable(), so use local_lock_nested_bh() which on non-RT is
a pure annotation with no overhead, and on PREEMPT_RT provides a
per-CPU sleeping lock that serializes access to the bq.
To reproduce, insert an mdelay(100) between bq->count = 0 and
__list_del_clearprev() in bq_flush_to_queue(), then run reproducer
provided by syzkaller.

Currently, when use_kmalloc_nolock is false, the freeing of fields for a
local storage selem is done eagerly before waiting for the RCU or RCU
tasks trace grace period to elapse. This opens up a window where the
program which has access to the selem can recreate the fields after the
freeing of fields is done eagerly, causing memory leaks when the element
is finally freed and returned to the kernel.
Make a few changes to address this. First, delay the freeing of fields
until after the grace periods have expired using a __bpf_selem_free_rcu
wrapper which is eventually invoked after transitioning through the
necessary number of grace period waits. Replace usage of the kfree_rcu
with call_rcu to be able to take a custom callback. Finally, care needs
to be taken to extend the rcu barriers for all cases, and not just when
use_kmalloc_nolock is true, as RCU and RCU tasks trace callbacks can be
in flight for either case and access the smap field, which is used to
obtain the BTF record to walk over special fields in the map value.
While we're at it, drop migrate_disable() from bpf_selem_free_rcu, since
migration should be disabled for RCU callbacks already.

There is a race window where BPF hash map elements can leak special
fields if the program with access to the map value recreates these
special fields between the check_and_free_fields done on the map value
and its eventual return to the memory allocator.
Several ways were explored prior to this patch, most notably [0] tried
to use a poison value to reject attempts to recreate special fields for
map values that have been logically deleted but still accessible to BPF
programs (either while sitting in the free list or when reused). While
this approach works well for task work, timers, wq, etc., it is harder
to apply the idea to kptrs, which have a similar race and failure mode.
Instead, we change bpf_mem_alloc to allow registering destructor for
allocated elements, such that when they are returned to the allocator,
any special fields created while they were accessible to programs in the
mean time will be freed. If these values get reused, we do not free the
fields again before handing the element back. The special fields thus
may remain initialized while the map value sits in a free list.
When bpf_mem_alloc is retired in the future, a similar concept can be
introduced to kmalloc_nolock-backed kmem_cache, paired with the existing
idea of a constructor.
Note that the destructor registration happens in map_check_btf, after
the BTF record is populated and (at that point) avaiable for inspection
and duplication. Duplication is necessary since the freeing of embedded
bpf_mem_alloc can be decoupled from actual map lifetime due to logic
introduced to reduce the cost of rcu_barrier()s in mem alloc free path in
9f2c6e96c6 ("bpf: Optimize rcu_barrier usage between hash map and bpf_mem_alloc.").
As such, once all callbacks are done, we must also free the duplicated
record. To remove dependency on the bpf_map itself, also stash the key
size of the map to obtain value from htab_elem long after the map is
gone.

get_upper_ifindexes() iterates over all upper devices and writes their
indices into an array without checking bounds.
Also the callers assume that the max number of upper devices is
MAX_NEST_DEV and allocate excluded_devices[1+MAX_NEST_DEV] on the stack,
but that assumption is not correct and the number of upper devices could
be larger than MAX_NEST_DEV (e.g., many macvlans), causing a
stack-out-of-bounds write.
Add a max parameter to get_upper_ifindexes() to avoid the issue.
When there are too many upper devices, return -EOVERFLOW and abort the

When traversing an rbtree using bpf_rbtree_left/right, if bpf_kptr_xchg
is used to access the __kptr pointer contained in a node, it currently

NON_OWN_REF flag, then re-adding the node to the original rbtree with
bpf_rbtree_add after usage. This process significantly degrades rbtree
traversal performance. The patch enables accessing __kptr pointers with

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split

resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

This commit consolidates static and varying pointer offset tracking
logic. All offsets are now represented solely using `.var_off` and
min/max fields. The reasons are twofold:
- This simplifies pointer tracking code, as each relevant function
needs to check the `.var_off` field anyway.
- It makes it easier to widen pointer registers for the purpose of loop
convergence checks, by forgoing the `regsafe()` logic demanding
`.off` fields to be identical.
The changes are spread across many functions and are hard to group
into smaller patches. Some of the logical changes include:
- Checks in __check_ptr_off_reg() are reordered so that the
tnum_is_const() check is done before operating on reg->var_off.value.
- check_packet_access() now uses check_mem_region_access() to handle
possible 'off' overflow cases.
- In check_helper_mem_access() utility functions like
check_packet_access() are now called with 'off=0', as these utility
functions now account for the complete register offset range.
- In check_reg_type() a call to __check_ptr_off_reg() is added before
a call to btf_struct_ids_match(). This prevents
btf_struct_ids_match() from potentially working on non-constant
reg->var_off.value.
- regsafe() is relaxed to avoid comparing '.off' field for pointers.
As a precaution, the changes are verified in [1] by adding a pass
checking that no pointer has non-zero '.off' field on each
do_check_insn() iteration.
[1] https://github.com/eddyz87/bpf/tree/ptrs-off-migration
Notable selftests changes:
- `.var_off` value changed because it now combines static and varying
offsets. Affected tests:
- linked_list/incorrect_node_var_off
- linked_list/incorrect_head_var_off2
- verifier_align/packet_variable_offset
- Overflowing `smax_value` bound leads to a pointer with big negative
or positive offset to be rejected immediately (previously overflowing
`rX += const` instruction updated `.off` field avoiding the overflow).
Affected tests:
- verifier_align/dubious_pointer_arithmetic
- verifier_bounds/var_off_insn_off_test1
- Invalid access to packet now reports full offset inside a packet.
Affected tests:
- verifier_direct_packet_access/test23_x_pkt_ptr_4
- A change in check_mem_region_access() behavior:
when register `.smin_value` is negative, it reports
"rX min value is negative..." before calling into __check_mem_access()
which reports "invalid access to ...".
In the tests below, the `.off` field was negative, while `.smin_value`
remained positive. This is no longer the case after the changes in
this commit. Affected tests:
- verifier_gotox/jump_table_invalid_mem_acceess_neg
- verifier_helper_packet_access/test15_cls_helper_fail_sub
- verifier_helper_value_access/imm_out_of_bound_2
- verifier_helper_value_access/reg_out_of_bound_2
- verifier_meta_access/meta_access_test2
- verifier_value_ptr_arith/known_scalar_from_different_maps
- lower_oob_arith_test_1
- value_ptr_known_scalar_3
- access_value_ptr_known_scalar
- Usage of check_mem_region_access() instead of __check_mem_access()
in check_packet_access() changes the reported message from
"rX offset is outside ..." to "rX min/max value is outside ...".
Affected tests:
- verifier_xdp_direct_packet_access/*
- In check_func_arg_reg_off() the check for zero offset now operates
on `.var_off` field instead of `.off` field. For tests where the
pattern looks like `kfunc(reg_with_var_off, ...)`, this changes the
reported error:
- previously the error "variable ... access ... disallowed"
was reported by __check_ptr_off_reg();
- now "R1 must have zero offset ..." is reported by
check_func_arg_reg_off() itself.

- verifier/calls.c

thus userspace, potentially, can replace the file pointed to by the

break anything on the kernel side, but for consistency fix the code

Take care of rqspinlock error in bpf_local_storage_{map_free, destroy}()
properly by switching to bpf_selem_unlink_nofail().
Both functions iterate their own RCU-protected list of selems and call
bpf_selem_unlink_nofail(). In map_free(), to prevent infinite loop when
both map_free() and destroy() fail to remove a selem from b->list
(extremely unlikely), switch to hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(). In destroy(),
also switch to hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() since we no longer iterate
local_storage->list under local_storage->lock.
bpf_selem_unlink() now becomes dedicated to helpers and syscalls paths
so reuse_now should always be false. Remove it from the argument and
hardcode it.

Introduce bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() to properly handle errors returned
from rqspinlock in bpf_local_storage_map_free() and
bpf_local_storage_destroy() where the operation must succeeds.
The idea of bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() is to allow an selem to be
partially linked and use atomic operation on a bit field, selem->state,
to determine when and who can free the selem if any unlink under lock
fails. An selem initially is fully linked to a map and a local storage.
Under normal circumstances, bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() will be able to
grab locks and unlink a selem from map and local storage in sequeunce,
just like bpf_selem_unlink(), and then free it after an RCU grace period.
However, if any of the lock attempts fails, it will only clear
SDATA(selem)->smap or selem->local_storage depending on the caller and
set SELEM_MAP_UNLINKED or SELEM_STORAGE_UNLINKED according to the
caller. Then, after both map_free() and destroy() see the selem and the
state becomes SELEM_UNLINKED, one of two racing caller can succeed in
cmpxchg the state from SELEM_UNLINKED to SELEM_TOFREE, ensuring no
double free or memory leak.
To make sure bpf_obj_free_fields() is done only once and when map is
still present, it is called when unlinking an selem from b->list under
b->lock.
To make sure uncharging memory is done only when the owner is still
present in map_free(), block destroy() from returning until there is no
pending map_free().
Since smap may not be valid in destroy(), bpf_selem_unlink_nofail()
skips bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock_misc() when called from destroy().
This is okay as bpf_local_storage_destroy() will return the remaining
amount of memory charge tracked by mem_charge to the owner to uncharge.
It is also safe to skip clearing local_storage->owner and owner_storage
as the owner is being freed and no users or bpf programs should be able
to reference the owner and using local_storage.
Finally, access of selem, SDATA(selem)->smap and selem->local_storage
are racy. Callers will protect these fields with RCU.

The next patch will introduce bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() to handle
rqspinlock errors. bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() will allow an selem to be
partially unlinked from map or local storage. Save memory allocation
method in selem so that later an selem can be correctly freed even when
SDATA(selem)->smap is init to NULL.
In addition, keep track of memory charge to the owner in local storage
so that later bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() can return the correct memory
charge to the owner. Updating local_storage->mem_charge is protected by
local_storage->lock.
Finally, extract miscellaneous tasks performed when unlinking an selem
from local_storage into bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock_misc(). It will
be reused by bpf_selem_unlink_nofail().
This patch also takes the chance to remove local_storage->smap, which
is no longer used since commit f484f4a3e0 ("bpf: Replace bpf memory
allocator with kmalloc_nolock() in local storage").

To prepare for changing bpf_local_storage_map_bucket::lock to rqspinlock,
convert bpf_selem_unlink_map() to failable. It still always succeeds and
returns 0 for now.
Since some operations updating local storage cannot fail in the middle,
open-code bpf_selem_unlink_map() to take the b->lock before the
operation. There are two such locations:
- bpf_local_storage_alloc()
The first selem will be unlinked from smap if cmpxchg owner_storage_ptr
fails, which should not fail. Therefore, hold b->lock when linking
until allocation complete. Helpers that assume b->lock is held by
callers are introduced: bpf_selem_link_map_nolock() and
bpf_selem_unlink_map_nolock().
- bpf_local_storage_update()
The three step update process: link_map(new_selem),
link_storage(new_selem), and unlink_map(old_selem) should not fail in
the middle.
In bpf_selem_unlink(), bpf_selem_unlink_map() and
bpf_selem_unlink_storage() should either all succeed or fail as a whole
instead of failing in the middle. So, return if unlink_map() failed.
Remove the selem_linked_to_map_lockless() check as an selem in the
common paths (not bpf_local_storage_map_free() or
bpf_local_storage_destroy()), will be unlinked under b->lock and
local_storage->lock and therefore no other threads can unlink the selem
from map at the same time.
In bpf_local_storage_destroy(), ignore the return of
bpf_selem_unlink_map() for now. A later patch will allow
bpf_local_storage_destroy() to unlink selems even when failing to
acquire locks.
Note that while this patch removes all callers of selem_linked_to_map(),
a later patch that introduces bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() will use it
again.

A later bpf_local_storage refactor will acquire all locks before
performing any update. To simplified the number of locks needed to take
in bpf_local_storage_map_update(), determine the bucket based on the
local_storage an selem belongs to instead of the selem pointer.
Currently, when a new selem needs to be created to replace the old selem
in bpf_local_storage_map_update(), locks of both buckets need to be
acquired to prevent racing. This can be simplified if the two selem
belongs to the same bucket so that only one bucket needs to be locked.
Therefore, instead of hashing selem, hashing the local_storage pointer
the selem belongs.
Performance wise, this is slightly better as update now requires locking
one bucket. It should not change the level of contention on one bucket
as the pointers to local storages of selems in a map are just as unique
as pointers to selems.

Currently, bpf_map_get_info_by_fd calculates and caches the hash of the
map regardless of the map's frozen state.
This leads to a TOCTOU bug where userspace can call
BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD to cache the hash and then modify the map
contents before freezing.
Therefore, a trusted loader can be tricked into verifying the stale hash
while loading the modified contents.
Fix this by returning -EPERM if the map is not frozen when the hash is
requested. This ensures the hash is only generated for the final,
immutable state of the map.

When freeing a bpf_async_cb in bpf_async_cb_rcu_tasks_trace_free(), in
case the wq callback is not scheduled, doing cancel_work() currently
returns false and leads to retry of RCU tasks trace grace period. If the
callback is never scheduled, we keep retrying indefinitely and don't put
the prog reference.
Since the only race we care about here is against a potentially running
wq callback in the first grace period, it should finish by the second
grace period, hence check work_busy() result to detect presence of
running wq callback if it's not pending, otherwise free the object
immediately without retrying.
Reasoning behind the check and its correctness with racing wq callback
invocation: cancel_work is supposed to be synchronized, hence calling it
first and getting false would mean that work is definitely not pending,
at this point, either the work is not scheduled at all or already
running, or we race and it already finished by the time we checked for
it using work_busy(). In case it is running, we synchronize using
pool->lock to check the current work running there, if we match, it
means we extend the wait by another grace period using retry = true,
otherwise either the work already finished running or was never
scheduled, so we can free the bpf_async_cb right away.

Previously, the verifier only tracked positive constant deltas between
linked registers using BPF_ADD. This limitation meant patterns like:
r1 = r0;
r1 += -4;
if r1 s>= 0 goto l0_%=; // r1 >= 0 implies r0 >= 4
// verifier couldn't propagate bounds back to r0
if r0 != 0 goto l0_%=;
r0 /= 0; // Verifier thinks this is reachable
l0_%=:
Similar limitation exists for 32-bit registers.
With this change, the verifier can now track negative deltas in reg->off
enabling bound propagation for the above pattern.
For alu32, we make sure the destination register has the upper 32 bits
as 0s before creating the link. BPF_ADD_CONST is split into
BPF_ADD_CONST64 and BPF_ADD_CONST32, the latter is used in case of alu32
and sync_linked_regs uses this to zext the result if known_reg has this
flag.

This patch implements bitwise tracking (tnum analysis) for BPF_END
(byte swap) operation.
Currently, the BPF verifier does not track value for BPF_END operation,
treating the result as completely unknown. This limits the verifier's
ability to prove safety of programs that perform endianness conversions,
which are common in networking code.
For example, the following code pattern for port number validation:
int test(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
__u64 x = bpf_get_prandom_u32();
x &= 0x3f00; // Range: [0, 0x3f00], var_off: (0x0; 0x3f00)
x = bswap16(x); // Should swap to range [0, 0x3f], var_off: (0x0; 0x3f)
if (x > 0x3f) goto trap;
return 0;
trap:
return *(u64 *)NULL; // Should be unreachable
}
Currently generates verifier output:
1: (54) w0 &= 16128 ; R0=scalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=16128,var_off=(0x0; 0x3f00))
2: (d7) r0 = bswap16 r0 ; R0=scalar()
3: (25) if r0 > 0x3f goto pc+2 ; R0=scalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=63,var_off=(0x0; 0x3f))
Without this patch, even though the verifier knows `x` has certain bits
set, after bswap16, it loses all tracking information and treats port
as having a completely unknown value [0, 65535].
According to the BPF instruction set[1], there are 3 kinds of BPF_END:
1. `bswap(16|32|64)`: opcode=0xd7 (BPF_END | BPF_ALU64 | BPF_TO_LE)
- do unconditional swap
2. `le(16|32|64)`: opcode=0xd4 (BPF_END | BPF_ALU | BPF_TO_LE)
- on big-endian: do swap
- on little-endian: truncation (16/32-bit) or no-op (64-bit)
3. `be(16|32|64)`: opcode=0xdc (BPF_END | BPF_ALU | BPF_TO_BE)
- on little-endian: do swap
- on big-endian: truncation (16/32-bit) or no-op (64-bit)
Since BPF_END operations are inherently bit-wise permutations, tnum
(bitwise tracking) offers the most efficient and precise mechanism
for value analysis. By implementing `tnum_bswap16`, `tnum_bswap32`,
and `tnum_bswap64`, we can derive exact `var_off` values concisely,
directly reflecting the bit-level changes.
Here is the overview of changes:
1. In `tnum_bswap(16|32|64)` (kernel/bpf/tnum.c):
Call `swab(16|32|64)` function on the value and mask of `var_off`, and
do truncation for 16/32-bit cases.
2. In `adjust_scalar_min_max_vals` (kernel/bpf/verifier.c):
Call helper function `scalar_byte_swap`.
- Only do byte swap when
* alu64 (unconditional swap) OR
* switching between big-endian and little-endian machines.
- If need do byte swap:
* Firstly call `tnum_bswap(16|32|64)` to update `var_off`.
* Then reset the bound since byte swap scrambles the range.
- For 16/32-bit cases, truncate dst register to match the swapped size.
This enables better verification of networking code that frequently uses
byte swaps for protocol processing, reducing false positive rejections.

Add a new kfunc called bpf_stream_print_stack to be used by programs
that need to print out their current BPF stack. The kfunc is essentially
a wrapper around the existing bpf_stream_dump_stack functionality used
to generate stack traces for error events like may_goto violations and
BPF-side arena page faults.

Scalar register IDs are used by the verifier to track relationships
between registers and enable bounds propagation across those
relationships. Once an ID becomes singular (i.e. only a single
register/stack slot carries it), it can no longer contribute to bounds
propagation and effectively becomes stale. The previous commit makes the
verifier clear such ids before caching the state.
When comparing the current and cached states for pruning, these stale
IDs can cause technically equivalent states to be considered different
and thus prevent pruning.
For example, in the selftest added in the next commit, two registers -
r6 and r7 are not linked to any other registers and get cached with
id=0, in the current state, they are both linked to each other with
id=A. Before this commit, check_scalar_ids would give temporary ids to
r6 and r7 (say tid1 and tid2) and then check_ids() would map tid1->A,
and when it would see tid2->A, it would not consider these state
equivalent.
Relax scalar ID equivalence by treating rold->id == 0 as "independent":
if the old state did not rely on any ID relationships for a register,
then any ID/linking present in the current state only adds constraints
and is always safe to accept for pruning. Implement this by returning
true immediately in check_scalar_ids() when old_id == 0.
Maintain correctness for the opposite direction (old_id != 0 && cur_id
== 0) by still allocating a temporary ID for cur_id == 0. This avoids
incorrectly allowing multiple independent current registers (id==0) to
satisfy a single linked old ID during mapping.

The maybe_widen_reg() function widens imprecise scalar registers to
unknown when their values differ between the cached and current states.
Previously, it used regs_exact() which also compared register IDs via
check_ids(), requiring registers to have matching IDs (or mapped IDs) to
be considered exact.
For scalar widening purposes, what matters is whether the value tracking
(bounds, tnum, var_off) is the same, not whether the IDs match. Two
scalars with identical value constraints but different IDs represent the
same abstract value and don't need to be widened.
Introduce scalars_exact_for_widen() that only compares the
value-tracking portion of bpf_reg_state (fields before 'id'). This
allows the verifier to preserve more scalar value information during
state merging when IDs differ but actual tracked values are identical,
reducing unnecessary widening and potentially improving verification
precision.

The verifier assigns ids to scalar registers/stack slots when they are
linked through a mov or stack spill/fill instruction. These ids are
later used to propagate newly found bounds from one register to all
registers that share the same id. The verifier also compares the ids of
these registers in current state and cached state when making pruning
decisions.
When an ID becomes singular (i.e., only a single register or stack slot
has that ID), it can no longer participate in bounds propagation. During
comparisons between current and cached states for pruning decisions,
however, such stale IDs can prevent pruning of otherwise equivalent
states.
Find and clear all singular ids before caching a state in
is_state_visited(). struct bpf_idset which is currently unused has been
repurposed for this use case.

The next commit will allow clearing of scalar ids if no other
register/stack slot has that id. This is because if only one register
has a unique id, it can't participate in bounds propagation and is
equivalent to having no id.
But if the id of a stack slot is cleared by clear_singular_ids() in the
next commit, reading that stack slot into a register will not establish
a link because the stack slot's id is cleared.
This can happen in a situation where a register is spilled and later
loses its id due to a multiply operation (for example) and then the
stack slot's id becomes singular and can be cleared.
Make sure that scalar stack slots have an id before we read them into a
register.
