[PATCH bpf v2 1/2] bpf: mark registers as safe or unknown in all frames

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In case of a null check on a pointer inside a subprog, we should mark all
registers with this pointer as either safe or unknown, in both the current
and previous frames.  Currently, only spilled registers and registers in
the current frame are marked.  This patch also marks registers in previous
frames.

A good reproducer looks as follow:

1: ptr = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, &key);
2: ret = subprog(ptr) {
3:   return ptr != NULL;
4: }
5: if (ret)
6:   value = *ptr;

With the above, the verifier will complain on line 6 because it sees ptr
as map_value_or_null despite the null check in subprog 1.

Note that this patch fixes another resulting bug when using
bpf_sk_release():

1: sk = bpf_sk_lookup_tcp(...);
2: subprog(sk) {
3:   if (sk)
4:     bpf_sk_release(sk);
5: }
6: if (!sk)
7:   return 0;
8: return 1;

In the above, mark_ptr_or_null_regs will warn on line 6 because it will
try to free the reference state, even though it was already freed on
line 3.
