bpf: improve verifier branch analysis
pathological bpf programs may try to force verifier to explode in the number of branch states: 20: (d5) if r1 s<= 0x24000028 goto pc+0 21: (b5) if r0 <= 0xe1fa20 goto pc+2 22: (d5) if r1 s<= 0x7e goto pc+0 23: (b5) if r0 <= 0xe880e000 goto pc+0 24: (c5) if r0 s< 0x2100ecf4 goto pc+0 25: (d5) if r1 s<= 0xe880e000 goto pc+1 26: (c5) if r0 s< 0xf4041810 goto pc+0 27: (d5) if r1 s<= 0x1e007e goto pc+0 28: (b5) if r0 <= 0xe86be000 goto pc+0 29: (07) r0 += 16614 30: (c5) if r0 s< 0x6d0020da goto pc+0 31: (35) if r0 >= 0x2100ecf4 goto pc+0 Teach verifier to recognize always taken and always not taken branches. This analysis is already done for == and != comparison. Expand it to all other branches. It also helps real bpf programs to be verified faster: before after bpf_lb-DLB_L3.o 2003 1940 bpf_lb-DLB_L4.o 3173 3089 bpf_lb-DUNKNOWN.o 1080 1065 bpf_lxc-DDROP_ALL.o 29584 28052 bpf_lxc-DUNKNOWN.o 36916 35487 bpf_netdev.o 11188 10864 bpf_overlay.o 6679 6643 bpf_lcx_jit.o 39555 38437 Reported-by: Anatoly Trosinenko <anatoly.trosinenko@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
