[ Upstream commit 27113c59b6 ]
Every 8 bytes of the stack is tracked by a bpf_stack_state.
Within each bpf_stack_state, there is a 'u8 slot_type[8]' to track
the type of each byte. Verifier tests slot_type[0] == STACK_SPILL
to decide if the spilled reg state is saved. Verifier currently only
saves the reg state if the whole 8 bytes are spilled to the stack,
so checking the slot_type[7] is the same as checking slot_type[0].
The later patch will allow verifier to save the bounded scalar
reg also for <8 bytes spill. There is a llvm patch [1] to ensure
the <8 bytes spill will be 8-byte aligned, so checking
slot_type[7] instead of slot_type[0] is required.
While at it, this patch refactors the slot_type[0] == STACK_SPILL
test into a new function is_spilled_reg() and change the
slot_type[0] check to slot_type[7] check in there also.
