When helpers like bpf_get_stack returns an int value
and later on used for arithmetic computation, the LSH and ARSH
operations are often required to get proper sign extension into
64-bit. For example, without this patch:
54: R0=inv(id=0,umax_value=800)
54: (bf) r8 = r0
55: R0=inv(id=0,umax_value=800) R8_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=800)
55: (67) r8 <<= 32
56: R8_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=3435973836800,var_off=(0x0; 0x3ff00000000))
56: (c7) r8 s>>= 32
57: R8=inv(id=0)
With this patch:
54: R0=inv(id=0,umax_value=800)
54: (bf) r8 = r0
55: R0=inv(id=0,umax_value=800) R8_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=800)
55: (67) r8 <<= 32
56: R8_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=3435973836800,var_off=(0x0; 0x3ff00000000))
56: (c7) r8 s>>= 32
57: R8=inv(id=0, umax_value=800,var_off=(0x0; 0x3ff))
With better range of "R8", later on when "R8" is added to other register,
e.g., a map pointer or scalar-value register, the better register
range can be derived and verifier failure may be avoided.
In our later example,
......
usize = bpf_get_stack(ctx, raw_data, max_len, BPF_F_USER_STACK);
if (usize < 0)
return 0;
ksize = bpf_get_stack(ctx, raw_data + usize, max_len - usize, 0);
......
Without improving ARSH value range tracking, the register representing
"max_len - usize" will have smin_value equal to S64_MIN and will be
rejected by verifier.
