Currently, when considering the branches that may be taken for a jump
instruction if the register being compared is a pointer the verifier
assumes both branches may be taken. But, if the jump instruction
is comparing if a pointer is NULL we have this information in the
verifier encoded in the reg->type so we can do better in these cases.
Specifically, these two common cases can be handled.
* If the instruction is BPF_JEQ and we are comparing against a
zero value. This test is 'if ptr == 0 goto +X' then using the
type information in reg->type we can decide if the ptr is not
null. This allows us to avoid pushing both branches onto the
stack and instead only use the != 0 case. For example
PTR_TO_SOCK and PTR_TO_SOCK_OR_NULL encode the null pointer.
Note if the type is PTR_TO_SOCK_OR_NULL we can not learn anything.
And also if the value is non-zero we learn nothing because it
could be any arbitrary value a different pointer for example
* If the instruction is BPF_JNE and ware comparing against a zero
value then a similar analysis as above can be done. The test in
asm looks like 'if ptr != 0 goto +X'. Again using the type
information if the non null type is set (from above PTR_TO_SOCK)
we know the jump is taken.
In this patch we extend is_branch_taken() to consider this extra
information and to return only the branch that will be taken. This
resolves a verifier issue reported with C code like the following.
See progs/test_sk_lookup_kern.c in selftests.
sk = bpf_sk_lookup_tcp(skb, tuple, tuple_len, BPF_F_CURRENT_NETNS, 0);
bpf_printk("sk=%d\n", sk ? 1 : 0);
if (sk)
bpf_sk_release(sk);
return sk ? TC_ACT_OK : TC_ACT_UNSPEC;
In the above the bpf_printk() will resolve the pointer from
PTR_TO_SOCK_OR_NULL to PTR_TO_SOCK. Then the second test guarding
the release will cause the verifier to walk both paths resulting
in the an unreleased sock reference. See verifier/ref_tracking.c
in selftests for an assembly version of the above.
After the above additional logic is added the C code above passes
as expected.
