[v4,bpf-next,04/10] bpf: preserve STACK_ZERO slots on partial reg spills

Commit Message

Andrii Nakryiko Dec. 5, 2023, 6:42 p.m. UTC

Instead of always forcing STACK_ZERO slots to STACK_MISC, preserve it in
situations where this is possible. E.g., when spilling register as
1/2/4-byte subslots on the stack, all the remaining bytes in the stack
slot do not automatically become unknown. If we knew they contained
zeroes, we can preserve those STACK_ZERO markers.

Add a helper mark_stack_slot_misc(), similar to scrub_spilled_slot(),
but that doesn't overwrite either STACK_INVALID nor STACK_ZERO. Note
that we need to take into account possibility of being in unprivileged
mode, in which case STACK_INVALID is forced to STACK_MISC for correctness,
as treating STACK_INVALID as equivalent STACK_MISC is only enabled in
privileged mode.
