Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 09/20] bpf: Refuse a private stack for a program with an exception cleanup table
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 21:42:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260918044243.3288865-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260918044156.3283973-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>

A landing pad is about to start running outside its own frame, on the
bpf_throw() walker's stack, with that frame's registers put back from a
spill area whose contents arch_bpf_run_cleanup_pad() knows how to read. The
x86-64 JIT addresses a private-stack program's frame through a scratch
register that it recomputes after each call rather than through rbp, and no
spill area holds that register, so a pad there would address its frame
through whatever the kernel left behind.

Refuse the combination in check_max_stack_depth(), where the choice is
made. Everywhere rather than arch-conditionally: arm64 keeps its private
stack pointer in x27, which is in the prologue spill and so survives, but a
rule that holds on one arch and not the other is not worth the second code
path when nothing is lost but an optimization.
