When do experiments with llvm (disabling instcombine and simplifyCFG), I hit the following error with test_seg6_loop.o. ; R1=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=48,imm=0), R7=pkt(id=0,off=40,r=48,imm=0) w2 = w7 ; R2_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=4294967295,var_off=(0x0; 0xffffffff)) w2 -= w1 R2 32-bit pointer arithmetic prohibited The corresponding source code is: uint32_t srh_off // srh and skb->data are all packet pointers srh_off = (char *)srh - (char *)(long)skb->data; The verifier does not support 32-bit pointer/scalar arithmetic. Without my llvm change, the code looks like ; R3=pkt(id=0,off=40,r=48,imm=0), R8=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=48,imm=0) w3 -= w8 ; R3_w=inv(id=0) This is explicitly allowed in verifier if both registers are pointers and the opcode is BPF_SUB. To fix this problem, I changed the verifier to allow 32-bit pointer/scaler BPF_SUB operations. At the source level, the issue could be workarounded with inline asm or changing "uint32_t srh_off" to "uint64_t srh_off". But I feel that verifier change might be the right thing to do.
