This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled bpf: unconditionally reset backtrack_state masks on global func exit to the 6.5-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: bpf-unconditionally-reset-backtrack_state-masks-on-g.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.5 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 842ebdaf6c091003bc4d28bf7e8eaf432f98aab3 Author: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Sep 18 14:01:10 2023 -0700 bpf: unconditionally reset backtrack_state masks on global func exit [ Upstream commit 81335f90e8a88b81932df011105c46e708744f44 ] In mark_chain_precision() logic, when we reach the entry to a global func, it is expected that R1-R5 might be still requested to be marked precise. This would correspond to some integer input arguments being tracked as precise. This is all expected and handled as a special case. What's not expected is that we'll leave backtrack_state structure with some register bits set. This is because for subsequent precision propagations backtrack_state is reused without clearing masks, as all code paths are carefully written in a way to leave empty backtrack_state with zeroed out masks, for speed. The fix is trivial, we always clear register bit in the register mask, and then, optionally, set reg->precise if register is SCALAR_VALUE type.
