[ Upstream commit e9a8e5a587ca55fec6c58e4881742705d45bee54 ]

When comparing current and cached states verifier should consider
bpf_func_state->callback_depth. Current state cannot be pruned against
cached state, when current states has more iterations left compared to
cached state. Current state has more iterations left when it's
callback_depth is smaller.

Below is an example illustrating this bug, minimized from mailing list
discussion [0] (assume that BPF_F_TEST_STATE_FREQ is set).
The example is not a safe program: if loop_cb point (1) is followed by
loop_cb point (2), then division by zero is possible at point (4).

struct ctx {
__u64 a;
__u64 b;
__u64 c;
};

static void loop_cb(int i, struct ctx *ctx)
{
/* assume that generated code is "fallthrough-first":
* if ... == 1 goto
* if ... == 2 goto
* <default>
*/
switch (bpf_get_prandom_u32()) {
case 1: /* 1 */ ctx->a = 42; return 0; break;
case 2: /* 2 */ ctx->b = 42; return 0; break;
default: /* 3 */ ctx->c = 42; return 0; break;
}
}

SEC("tc")
__failure
__flag(BPF_F_TEST_STATE_FREQ)
int test(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
struct ctx ctx = { 7, 7, 7 };

bpf_loop(2, loop_cb, &ctx, 0); /* 0 */
/* assume generated checks are in-order: .a first */
if (ctx.a == 42 && ctx.b == 42 && ctx.c == 7)
asm volatile("r0 /= 0;":::"r0"); /* 4 */
return 0;
}

Prior to this commit verifier built the following checkpoint tree for
this example:

.------------------------------------- Checkpoint / State name
| .-------------------------------- Code point number
| | .---------------------------- Stack state {ctx.a,ctx.b,ctx.c}
| | | .------------------- Callback depth in frame #0
v v v v
- (0) {7P,7P,7},depth=0
- (3) {7P,7P,7},depth=1
- (0) {7P,7P,42},depth=1
- (3) {7P,7,42},depth=2
- (0) {7P,7,42},depth=2 loop terminates because of depth limit
- (4) {7P,7,42},depth=0 predicted false, ctx.a marked precise
- (6) exit
(a) - (2) {7P,7,42},depth=2
- (0) {7P,42,42},depth=2 loop terminates because of depth limit
- (4) {7P,42,42},depth=0 predicted false, ctx.a marked precise
- (6) exit
(b) - (1) {7P,7P,42},depth=2
- (0) {42P,7P,42},depth=2 loop terminates because of depth limit
- (4) {42P,7P,42},depth=0 predicted false, ctx.{a,b} marked precise
- (6) exit
- (2) {7P,7,7},depth=1 considered safe, pruned using checkpoint (a)
(c) - (1) {7P,7P,7},depth=1 considered safe, pruned using checkpoint (b)

Here checkpoint (b) has callback_depth of 2, meaning that it would
never reach state {42,42,7}.
While checkpoint (c) has callback_depth of 1, and thus
could yet explore the state {42,42,7} if not pruned prematurely.
This commit makes forbids such premature pruning,
allowing verifier to explore states sub-tree starting at (c):

(c) - (1) {7,7,7P},depth=1
- (0) {42P,7,7P},depth=1
...
- (2) {42,7,7},depth=2
- (0) {42,42,7},depth=2 loop terminates because of depth limit
- (4) {42,42,7},depth=0 predicted true, ctx.{a,b,c} marked precise
- (5) division by zero
