This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled bpf/verifier: fix min/max handling in BPF_SUB to the 4.9-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-verifier-fix-min-max-handling-in-bpf_sub.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Thu Aug 24 17:44:02 PDT 2017 From: Edward Cree <ecree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2017 14:37:34 +0100 Subject: bpf/verifier: fix min/max handling in BPF_SUB From: Edward Cree <ecree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 9305706c2e808ae59f1eb201867f82f1ddf6d7a6 ] We have to subtract the src max from the dst min, and vice-versa, since (e.g.) the smallest result comes from the largest subtrahend.
