During this simulation, the umin also eventually surpasses umax. Looking at the first 'from 12 to 11' output line from the loop, R1 has the following state: R1_w=scalar(umin=0x8000000000000002 (9223372036854775810), umax=0x800000000000000f (9223372036854775823), var_off=(0x8000000000000000; 0xffffffff)) The var_off has technically not an inconsistent state but it's very imprecise and far off surpassing 64bit umax bounds whereas the expected output refining bits in var_off should have been like: R1_w=scalar(umin=0x8000000000000002 (9223372036854775810), umax=0x800000000000000f (9223372036854775823), var_off=(0x8000000000000000; 0xf)) In the above log, var_off stays as var_off=(0x8000000000000000; 0xffffffff) and does not converge into a narrower mask where more bits become known, eventually transforming R1 into a constant upon umin=9223372036854775823, umax=9223372036854775823 case where the verifier would have terminated and let the program pass. The __reg_combine_64_into_32() marks the subregister unknown and propagates 64bit {s,u}min/{s,u}max bounds to their 32bit equivalents iff they are within the 32bit universe. The question came up whether __reg_combine_64_into_32() should special case the situation that when 64bit {s,u}min bounds have the same value as 64bit {s,u}max bounds to then assign the latter as well to the 32bit reg->{s,u}32_{min,max}_value. As can be seen from the above example however, that is just /one/ special case and not a /generic/ solution given above example would still not be addressed this way and remain at an imprecise var_off=(0x8000000000000000; 0xffffffff). The improvement is needed in __reg_bound_offset() to refine var32_off with the updated var64_off instead of the prior reg->var_off. The reg_bounds_sync() code first refines information about the register's min/max bounds via __update_reg_bounds() from the current var_off, then in __reg_deduce_bounds() from sign bit and with the potentially learned bits from bounds it'll update the var_off tnum in __reg_bound_offset(). For example, intersecting with the old var_off might have improved bounds slightly, e.g. if umax was 0x7f...f and var_off was (0; 0xf...fc), then new var_off will then result in (0; 0x7f...fc). The intersected var64_off holds then the universe which is a superset of var32_off. The point for the latter is not to broaden, but to further refine known bits based on the intersection of var_off with 32 bit bounds, so that we later construct the final var_off from upper and lower 32 bits. The final __update_reg_bounds() can then potentially refine bounds if more bits became known from new var_off. After the improvement, we can see R1 converging successively: func#0 @0 0: R1=ctx(off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0 0: (61) r2 = *(u32 *)(r1 +0) ; R1=ctx(off=0,imm=0) R2_w=pkt(off=0,r=0,imm=0) 1: (61) r3 = *(u32 *)(r1 +4) ;
