[PATCH net-next] bpf: enhance verifier to understand stack pointer arithmetic

From: Alexei Starovoitov <hidden>
Date: 2017-04-30 05:52:46

From: Yonghong Song <redacted>

llvm 4.0 and above generates the code like below:
....
440: (b7) r1 = 15
441: (05) goto pc+73
515: (79) r6 = *(u64 *)(r10 -152)
516: (bf) r7 = r10
517: (07) r7 += -112
518: (bf) r2 = r7
519: (0f) r2 += r1
520: (71) r1 = *(u8 *)(r8 +0)
521: (73) *(u8 *)(r2 +45) = r1
....
and the verifier complains "R2 invalid mem access 'inv'" for insn #521.
This is because verifier marks register r2 as unknown value after #519
where r2 is a stack pointer and r1 holds a constant value.

Teach verifier to recognize "stack_ptr + imm" and
"stack_ptr + reg with const val" as valid stack_ptr with new offset.

technically it's 'net' material, but it's too late for 'net',
hence 'net-next' tag.
No 'Fixes' tag, since it's only seen with newer llvm.

Applied to net-next, but I'll queue this up to -stable.
