Subject: [PATCH bpf v7 00/10] Misc bug fixes - part 5
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 01:32:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917233222.2542500-1-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)
A set of miscellaneous fixes for bugs reported by Nicholas. See commit
logs for details.
Changelog:
----------
v6 -> v7
v6: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260917111127.3780880-1-memxor@gmail.com
* Correct the trailing ldimm64 rationale and exercise the early guard with
CO-RE metadata. (BPF CI)
* Keep the relocation-ordering regression causal after target hardening.
(BPF CI)
* Document the raw BTF access-string offset and PTR_TO_INSN map pointer.
(BPF CI)
v5 -> v6
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260916212102.597335-1-memxor@gmail.com
* Rebase on bpf/master.
v4 -> v5
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260914222514.1635018-1-memxor@gmail.com
* Reject a terminal ldimm64 before in-kernel CO-RE relocation and add
focused verifier coverage. (Eduard)
* Bound truncated ldimm64 relocations in libbpf's relocation loop and
retain resolved and unresolved regression coverage. (Eduard, BPF CI)
* Encode the early CO-RE test BTF with the BTF_* helpers and fold the
standalone follow-up into its owning patch. (Eduard)
* Use one fixed instruction stream for CO-RE poison tests without a
conditional program length. (Eduard)
* Drop final selftest commit.
* Trim callback lock identity selftests to the mismatched-value cases.
(Eduard)
v3 -> v4
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260914131701.2529725-1-memxor@gmail.com
* Return interrupted main-program JIT compilation through ERR_PTR()
instead of an output parameter. (Eduard)
* Apply in-kernel CO-RE relocations before subprogram discovery and
validation, while keeping func_info and line_info validation after
layout discovery. (Andrii, Alexei)
* Keep relocation-target hardening as a separate patch and diagnose
invalid register-source ALU targets. (Alexei, Eduard, BPF CI)
* Extract CO-RE poisoning into a returning helper so validated
instruction cases can propagate its status directly. (Andrii)
* Restore the existing inner-map UID comment wording. (Eduard)
* Add bounds checking and selftests for truncated ldimm64 CO-RE
relocations. (Sashiko)
v2 -> v3
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260905083418.3723623-1-memxor@gmail.com
* Propagate cancellation from constant blinding through both JIT fallback
paths instead of rechecking fatal signals in bpf_check(). (Eduard)
* Preserve packet-pointer displacement by comparing range bases, without
extending the generic ID map. Veristat showed identical verdicts and
successful-program instruction/state counts across 2773 loads. (Eduard,
Alexei)
* Reduce the packet pruning regression to 20 instructions and force state
checkpoints. (Alexei, BPF CI)
* Reject unsupported CO-RE poisoning targets in the shared relocation
code instead of adding a CFG fall-through check. (Alexei)
* Cover unsupported poison targets and supported relocations in dead code,
including both halves of ldimm64.
* Assign callback value IDs unconditionally and compare inner-map lookup
IDs through check_ids(); explain the bug with a small program. (Eduard)
* Move map_uid beside the other IDs and shrink frameno to preserve the
register state size, keeping the existing memcmp() ranges.
* Consolidate callback tests into the existing spinlock tests and reuse
their map fixtures. Retain one-element and nested locking controls, and
check nonzero IDs in timer, workqueue, and task-work callbacks. Clarify
the inner-map lookup test description. (BPF CI)
v1 -> v2
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260905070003.3193366-1-memxor@gmail.com
* Address inner map corner case for callback map value patch.
* Drop patch 2 since the test can be flaky.
