Subject: [PATCH bpf v1 2/2] selftests/bpf: Test pointer bpf_loop iteration count rejection
Date: Sat,  5 Sep 2026 03:47:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260905014735.1452988-3-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260905014735.1452988-1-memxor@gmail.com>

Add a verifier test that leaves the raw tracepoint context pointer in R1
when calling bpf_loop(). This is the smallest trigger for the incorrect
precision backtracking: it reuses an existing callback and needs no maps or
userspace setup.

Expect an ordinary scalar-type rejection. Without the verifier fix, the
test instead reaches precision backtracking and reports an internal
"backtracking misuse" error.
