    bpf: fix two bugs in verification logic when accessing 'ctx' pointer · 725f9dcd

    1.
    first bug is a silly mistake. It broke tracing examples and prevented
    simple bpf programs from loading.
    
    In the following code:
    if (insn->imm == 0 && BPF_SIZE(insn->code) == BPF_W) {
    } else if (...) {
      // this part should have been executed when
      // insn->code == BPF_W and insn->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->code) != BPF_W)
      continue;
    
    if (insn->imm == 0) {
    } else if (...) {
      // now this code will be executed when
      // insn->code == BPF_W and insn->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->src_reg].type;
    before check_mem_access().
    Add new 'access skb fields bad4' test to check this case.
    
    Fixes: 9bac3d6d ("bpf: allow extended BPF programs access skb fields")
