Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v1 05/14] bpf: Use canonical stack argument names in diagnostics
Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2026 03:57:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260816015746.2632990-6-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260816015746.2632990-1-memxor@gmail.com>
The main diagnostic identifies the first outgoing stack slot as stack
argument 1 and the sixth function argument. The causal history instead
labels the same value as stack arg6, making it look like a different slot.
Render causal-history targets in the verifier's canonical stack-argument
location form. The first outgoing slot is now shown as *(R11-8), matching
reg_arg_name(), while the main diagnostic retains its fuller slot and
ordinal description.
