Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 4/7] bpf: Fix arg_track_join log to use sa prefix for stack arg slots
Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 15:50:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260515225056.823086-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260515225035.821178-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>

arg_track_join() logs state transitions at CFG merge points. For
stack arg slots (r >= MAX_BPF_REG), it printed "r11:", "r12:", etc.,
which is misleading since r11 is a special register (BPF_REG_PARAMS)
not meaningful to the user.

Fix it to print "sa0:", "sa1:", etc., matching the per-instruction
transition log in arg_track_log() which already uses the "sa" prefix.

Update the existing stack_arg_pruning_type_mismatch selftest to expect
the corrected format.

Fixes: 2af4e792773f ("bpf: Extend liveness analysis to track stack argument slots")
