From: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a3b666bfa9c9edc05bca62a87abafe0936bd7f97 ] When processing ALU/ALU64 operations (apart from BPF_MOV, which is handled correctly already; and BPF_NEG and BPF_END are special and don't have source register), if destination register is already marked precise, this causes problem with potentially missing precision tracking for the source register. E.g., when we have r1 >>= r5 and r1 is marked precise, but r5 isn't, this will lead to r5 staying as imprecise. This is due to the precision backtracking logic stopping early when it sees r1 is already marked precise. If r1 wasn't precise, we'd keep backtracking and would add r5 to the set of registers that need to be marked precise. So there is a discrepancy here which can lead to invalid and incompatible states matched due to lack of precision marking on r5. If r1 wasn't precise, precision backtracking would correctly mark both r1 and r5 as precise. This is simple to fix, though. During the forward instruction simulation pass, for arithmetic operations of `scalar <op>= scalar` form (where <op> is ALU or ALU64 operations), if destination register is already precise, mark source register as precise. This applies only when both involved registers are SCALARs. `ptr += scalar` and `scalar += ptr` cases are already handled correctly. This does have (negative) effect on some selftest programs and few Cilium programs. ~/baseline-tmp-results.csv are veristat results with this patch, while ~/baseline-results.csv is without it. See post scriptum for instructions on how to make Cilium programs testable with veristat. Correctness has a price. $ ./veristat -C -e file,prog,insns,states ~/baseline-results.csv ~/baseline-tmp-results.csv | grep -v '+0' File Program Total insns (A) Total insns (B) Total insns (DIFF) Total states (A) Total states (B) Total states (DIFF) ----------------------- -------------------- --------------- --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- ------------------- bpf_cubic.bpf.linked1.o bpf_cubic_cong_avoid 997 1700 +703 (+70.51%) 62 90 +28 (+45.16%) test_l4lb.bpf.linked1.o balancer_ingress 4559 5469 +910 (+19.96%) 118 126 +8 (+6.78%) ----------------------- -------------------- --------------- --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- ------------------- $ ./veristat -C -e file,prog,verdict,insns,states ~/baseline-results-cilium.csv ~/baseline-tmp-results-cilium.csv | grep -v '+0' File Program Total insns (A) Total insns (B) Total insns (DIFF) Total states (A) Total states (B) Total states (DIFF) ------------- ------------------------------ --------------- --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- ------------------- bpf_host.o tail_nodeport_nat_ingress_ipv6 4448 5261 +813 (+18.28%) 234 247 +13 (+5.56%) bpf_host.o tail_nodeport_nat_ipv6_egress 3396 3446 +50 (+1.47%) 201 203 +2 (+1.00%) bpf_lxc.o tail_nodeport_nat_ingress_ipv6 4448 5261 +813 (+18.28%) 234 247 +13 (+5.56%) bpf_overlay.o tail_nodeport_nat_ingress_ipv6 4448 5261 +813 (+18.28%) 234 247 +13 (+5.56%) bpf_xdp.o tail_lb_ipv4 71736 73442 +1706 (+2.38%) 4295 4370 +75 (+1.75%) ------------- ------------------------------ --------------- --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- ------------------- P.S. To make Cilium ([0]) programs libbpf-compatible and thus veristat-loadable, apply changes from topmost commit in [1], which does minimal changes to Cilium source code, mostly around SEC() annotations and BPF map definitions.
