bpf: Propagate scalar ranges through register assignments.
The llvm register allocator may use two different registers representing the same virtual register. In such case the following pattern can be observed: 1047: (bf) r9 = r6 1048: (a5) if r6 < 0x1000 goto pc+1 1050: ... 1051: (a5) if r9 < 0x2 goto pc+66 1052: ... 1053: (bf) r2 = r9 /* r2 needs to have upper and lower bounds */ This is normal behavior of greedy register allocator. The slides 137+ explain why regalloc introduces such register copy: http://llvm.org/devmtg/2018-04/slides/Yatsina-LLVM%20Greedy%20Register%20Allocator.pdf There is no way to tell llvm 'not to do this'. Hence the verifier has to recognize such patterns. In order to track this information without backtracking allocate ID for scalars in a similar way as it's done for find_good_pkt_pointers(). When the verifier encounters r9 = r6 assignment it will assign the same ID to both registers. Later if either register range is narrowed via conditional jump propagate the register state into the other register. Clear register ID in adjust_reg_min_max_vals() for any alu instruction. The register ID is ignored for scalars in regsafe() and doesn't affect state pruning. mark_reg_unknown() clears the ID. It's used to process call, endian and other instructions. Hence ID is explicitly cleared only in adjust_reg_min_max_vals() and in 32-bit mov.
