Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/3] bpf: Pointers beyond packet end.

From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@...nel.org>

In some cases LLVM uses the knowledge that branch is taken to optimze the code
which causes the verifier to reject valid programs.
Teach the verifier to recognize that
r1 = skb->data;
r1 += 10;
r2 = skb->data_end;
if (r1 > r2) {
  here r1 points beyond packet_end and subsequent
  if (r1 > r2) // always evaluates to "true".
}

Alexei Starovoitov (3):
  bpf: Support for pointers beyond pkt_end.
  selftests/bpf: Add skb_pkt_end test
  selftests/bpf: Add asm tests for pkt vs pkt_end comparison.
