Propagate nullness information for branches of register to register equality compare instructions. The following rules are used: - suppose register A maybe null - suppose register B is not null - for JNE A, B, ... - A is not null in the false branch - for JEQ A, B, ... - A is not null in the true branch E.g. for program like below: r6 = skb->sk; r7 = sk_fullsock(r6); r0 = sk_fullsock(r6); if (r0 == 0) return 0; (a) if (r0 != r7) return 0; (b) *r7->type; (c) return 0; It is safe to dereference r7 at point (c), because of (a) and (b).
