This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled bpf: enforce precision of R0 on callback return to the 5.15-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-enforce-precision-of-r0-on-callback-return.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d40659e734a1f74fd493d0405eb18533622913a6 Author: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Dec 2 09:56:57 2023 -0800 bpf: enforce precision of R0 on callback return [ Upstream commit 0acd03a5bd188b0c501d285d938439618bd855c4 ] Given verifier checks actual value, r0 has to be precise, so we need to propagate precision properly. r0 also has to be marked as read, otherwise subsequent state comparisons will ignore such register as unimportant and precision won't really help here.
