Writes in straight-line code should not prevent reads from propagating along jumps. With current verifier code, the jump from 3 to 5 does not add a read mark on 3:R0 (because 5:R0 has a write mark), meaning that the jump from 1 to 3 gets pruned as safe even though R0 is NOT_INIT. Verifier output: 0: (61) r2 = *(u32 *)(r1 +0) 1: (35) if r2 >= 0x0 goto pc+1 R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R2=inv(id=0,umax_value=4294967295,var_off=(0x0; 0xffffffff)) R10=fp0 2: (b7) r0 = 0 3: (35) if r2 >= 0x0 goto pc+1 R0=inv0 R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R2=inv(id=0,umax_value=4294967295,var_off=(0x0; 0xffffffff)) R10=fp0 4: (b7) r0 = 0 5: (95) exit from 3 to 5: safe from 1 to 3: safe processed 8 insns, stack depth 0 Signed-off-by: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
