Yonghong Song 13fbcee557 bpf: Improve verifier JEQ/JNE insn branch taken checking
Currently, for BPF_JEQ/BPF_JNE insn, verifier determines
whether the branch is taken or not only if both operands
are constants. Therefore, for the following code snippet,
  0: (85) call bpf_ktime_get_ns#5       ; R0_w=scalar()
  1: (a5) if r0 < 0x3 goto pc+2         ; R0_w=scalar(umin=3)
  2: (b7) r2 = 2                        ; R2_w=2
  3: (1d) if r0 == r2 goto pc+2 6

At insn 3, since r0 is not a constant, verifier assumes both branch
can be taken which may lead inproper verification failure.

Add comparing umin/umax value and the constant. If the umin value
is greater than the constant, or umax value is smaller than the constant,
for JEQ the branch must be not-taken, and for JNE the branch must be taken.
The jmp32 mode JEQ/JNE branch taken checking is also handled similarly.

The following lists the veristat result w.r.t. changed number
of processes insns during verification:

test_parse_tcp_hdr_opt_dynptr.bpf.linked3.o            xdp_ingress_v6                                             1238       1237      -1 (-0.08%)

Mostly a small improvement but test_cls_redirect.bpf.linked3.o has a 13% regression.
I checked with verifier log and found it this is due to pruning.
For some JEQ/JNE branches impacted by this patch,
one branch is explored and the other has state equivalence and
pruned.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
