Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v1 1/2] bpf: Reject invalid LDSX instruction in disassembly
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 04:20:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820022020.3450479-2-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260820022020.3450479-1-memxor@gmail.com>

The signed-load mnemonic table has entries for byte, half-word, and word
loads because BPF_MEMSX does not support double-word loads. A BPF_MEMSX
| BPF_DW instruction nevertheless selects index 3, past the end of this
table.

Program Structure diagnostics can disassemble a malformed instruction
before check_and_resolve_insns() rejects its opcode. Placing the invalid
signed double-word load at the end of a program therefore triggers an
out-of-bounds access while reporting subprogram fallthrough.

Treat signed double-word loads as invalid in the disassembler and use
the existing BUG_ldx fallback instead.

Fixes: a8f427835394 ("bpf: Report Program Structure CFG errors")
