From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 77ce220c0549dcc3db8226c61c60e83fc59dfafc ] The test fails because of a recent fix to the verifier, even though this program is valid. In details what happens is: 7: (61) r1 = *(u32 *)(r0 +0) Load a 32-bit value, with signed bounds [S32_MIN, S32_MAX]. The bounds of the 64-bit value are [0, U32_MAX]... 8: (65) if r1 s> 0xffffffff goto pc+1 ... therefore this is always true (the operand is sign-extended). 10: (b4) w2 = 11 11: (6d) if r2 s> r1 goto pc+1 When true, the 64-bit bounds become [0, 10]. The 32-bit bounds are still [S32_MIN, 10]. 13: (64) w1 <<= 2 Because this is a 32-bit operation, the verifier propagates the new 32-bit bounds to the 64-bit ones, and the knowledge gained from insn 11 is lost. 14: (0f) r0 += r1 15: (7a) *(u64 *)(r0 +0) = 4 Then the verifier considers r0 unbounded here, rejecting the test. To make the test work, change insn 8 to check the sign of the 32-bit value.
