1.
first bug is a silly mistake. It broke tracing examples and prevented
simple bpf programs from loading.

In the following code:
if (insn-&gt;imm == 0 &amp;&amp; BPF_SIZE(insn-&gt;code) == BPF_W) {
} else if (...) {
  // this part should have been executed when
  // insn-&gt;code == BPF_W and insn-&gt;imm != 0
}

Obviously it's not doing that. So simple instructions like:
r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 8)
will be rejected. Note the comments in the code around these branches
were and still valid and indicate the true intent.

Replace it with:
if (BPF_SIZE(insn-&gt;code) != BPF_W)
  continue;

if (insn-&gt;imm == 0) {
} else if (...) {
  // now this code will be executed when
  // insn-&gt;code == BPF_W and insn-&gt;imm != 0
}

2.
second bug is more subtle.
If malicious code is using the same dest register as source register,
the checks designed to prevent the same instruction to be used with different
pointer types will fail to trigger, since we were assigning src_reg_type
when it was already overwritten by check_mem_access().
The fix is trivial. Just move line:
src_reg_type = regs[insn-&gt;src_reg].type;
before check_mem_access().
Add new 'access skb fields bad4' test to check this case.

Fixes: 9bac3d6d548e ("bpf: allow extended BPF programs access skb fields")

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt.

 2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers
    can support hw switch offloading.  From Floria Fainelli.

 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave,
    from Madhu Challa.

 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck.

 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel
    Borkmann.

 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25,
    rose, etc.  And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to
    implement MPLS support.  All from Eric Biederman.

 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman.

 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed
    up route lookups even further.  From Alexander Duyck.

 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation,
    from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf.  In particular, in the case where
    an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty
    table, we expand the table much more sanely.

10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric
    Biederman.

11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov.

12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be
    established in the main hash table.  Much less false sharing since
    hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to
    go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed
    underneath.  From Eric Dumazet.

13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk.

14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6.  From
    Hannes Frederic Sowa.

15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic
    Sowa.

16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard
    Cochran.

tracex1_kern.c - C program compiled into BPF.

It attaches to kprobe:netif_receive_skb()

When skb-&gt;dev-&gt;name == "lo", it prints sample debug message into
trace_pipe via bpf_trace_printk() helper function.

tracex1_user.c - corresponding user space component that:
  - loads BPF program via bpf() syscall
  - opens kprobes:netif_receive_skb event via perf_event_open()
    syscall
  - attaches the program to event via ioctl(event_fd,
    PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
  - prints from trace_pipe

Note, this BPF program is non-portable. It must be recompiled
with current kernel headers. kprobe is not a stable ABI and
BPF+kprobe scripts may no longer be meaningful when kernel
internals change.

No matter in what way the kernel changes, neither the kprobe,
nor the BPF program can ever crash or corrupt the kernel,
assuming the kprobes, perf and BPF subsystem has no bugs.

The verifier will detect that the program is using
bpf_trace_printk() and the kernel will print 'this is a DEBUG
kernel' warning banner, which means that bpf_trace_printk()
should be used for debugging of the BPF program only.

Usage:
$ sudo tracex1

as a follow on to patch 70006af95515 ("bpf: allow eBPF access skb fields")
this patch allows 'protocol' and 'vlan_tci' fields to be accessible
from extended BPF programs.

The usage of 'protocol', 'vlan_present' and 'vlan_tci' fields is the same as
corresponding SKF_AD_PROTOCOL, SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG_PRESENT and SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG
accesses in classic BPF.

Now that we have BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER up and running, we can
remove the test stubs which were added to get the verifier suite up.

We can just let the test cases probe under socket filter type instead.
In the fill/spill test case, we cannot (yet) access fields from the
context (skb), but we may adapt that test case in future.

- add a test specifically targeting verifier state pruning.
It checks state propagation between registers, storing that
state into stack and state pruning algorithm recognizing
equivalent stack and register states.

- add summary line to spot failures easier

while comparing for verifier state equivalency the comparison
was missing a check for uninitialized register.
Make sure it does so and add a testcase.
