mainlining shenanigans
3cf2b61eb0
For the case where both s32_{min,max}_value bounds are positive, the
__reg_assign_32_into_64() directly propagates them to their 64 bit
counterparts, otherwise it pessimises them into [0,u32_max] universe and
tries to refine them later on by learning through the tnum as per comment
in mentioned function. However, that does not always happen, for example,
in mov32 operation we call zext_32_to_64(dst_reg) which invokes the
__reg_assign_32_into_64() as is without subsequent bounds update as
elsewhere thus no refinement based on tnum takes place.
Thus, not calling into the __update_reg_bounds() / __reg_deduce_bounds() /
__reg_bound_offset() triplet as we do, for example, in case of ALU ops via
adjust_scalar_min_max_vals(), will lead to more pessimistic bounds when
dumping the full register state:
Before fix:
0: (b4) w0 = -1
1: R0_w=invP4294967295
(id=0,imm=ffffffff,
smin_value=4294967295,smax_value=4294967295,
umin_value=4294967295,umax_value=4294967295,
var_off=(0xffffffff; 0x0),
s32_min_value=-1,s32_max_value=-1,
u32_min_value=-1,u32_max_value=-1)
1: (bc) w0 = w0
2: R0_w=invP4294967295
(id=0,imm=ffffffff,
smin_value=0,smax_value=4294967295,
umin_value=4294967295,umax_value=4294967295,
var_off=(0xffffffff; 0x0),
s32_min_value=-1,s32_max_value=-1,
u32_min_value=-1,u32_max_value=-1)
Technically, the smin_value=0 and smax_value=4294967295 bounds are not
incorrect, but given the register is still a constant, they break assumptions
about const scalars that smin_value == smax_value and umin_value == umax_value.
After fix:
0: (b4) w0 = -1
1: R0_w=invP4294967295
(id=0,imm=ffffffff,
smin_value=4294967295,smax_value=4294967295,
umin_value=4294967295,umax_value=4294967295,
var_off=(0xffffffff; 0x0),
s32_min_value=-1,s32_max_value=-1,
u32_min_value=-1,u32_max_value=-1)
1: (bc) w0 = w0
2: R0_w=invP4294967295
(id=0,imm=ffffffff,
smin_value=4294967295,smax_value=4294967295,
umin_value=4294967295,umax_value=4294967295,
var_off=(0xffffffff; 0x0),
s32_min_value=-1,s32_max_value=-1,
u32_min_value=-1,u32_max_value=-1)
Without the smin_value == smax_value and umin_value == umax_value invariant
being intact for const scalars, it is possible to leak out kernel pointers
from unprivileged user space if the latter is enabled. For example, when such
registers are involved in pointer arithmtics, then adjust_ptr_min_max_vals()
will taint the destination register into an unknown scalar, and the latter
can be exported and stored e.g. into a BPF map value.

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.
