[RFC PATCH bpf-next] bpf, tnums: add bitwise-not helper

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

 



Note: Andrii' patch mentioned in the Link tag isn't merge yet, I'll
      resend this along with the proposed refactoring once it is merged.
      For now, sending the patch as RFC for feedback and review.

While the BPF instruction set does not contain a bitwise-NOT
instruction, the verifier may still need to compute the bitwise-NOT
result for the value tracked in the register. One such case reference in
the link below is

	u64 val;
	val = reg_const_value(reg2, is_jmp32);
	tnum_ops(..., tnum_const(~val);

Where the value is extract of out tnum, operated with bitwise-NOT, then
simply turned back into tnum again; plus it has the limitation of only
working on constant. This commit adds the tnum_not() helper that compute
the bitwise-NOT result for all the values tracked within the tnum, that
allow us to simplify the above code to

	tnum_ops(..., tnum_not(reg2->var_off));

without being limited to constant, and is general enough to be reused
and composed with other tnum operations.
