			eBPF verifier
			-------------
			The safety of the eBPF program is determined in two steps.

			First step does DAG check to disallow loops and other CFG validation.
			In particular it will detect programs that have unreachable instructions.
			(though classic BPF checker allows them)

			Second step starts from the first insn and descends all possible paths.
			It simulates execution of every insn and observes the state change of
			registers and stack.

			At the start of the program the register R1 contains a pointer to context
			and has type PTR_TO_CTX.
			If verifier sees an insn that does R2=R1, then R2 has now type
			PTR_TO_CTX as well and can be used on the right hand side of expression.
			If R1=PTR_TO_CTX and insn is R2=R1+R1, then R2=UNKNOWN_VALUE,
			since addition of two valid pointers makes invalid pointer.
			(In 'secure' mode verifier will reject any type of pointer arithmetic to make
			sure that kernel addresses don't leak to unprivileged users)

			If register was never written to, it's not readable:
			bpf_mov R0 = R2
			bpf_exit
			will be rejected, since R2 is unreadable at the start of the program.

			After kernel function call, R1-R5 are reset to unreadable and
			R0 has a return type of the function.

			Since R6-R9 are callee saved, their state is preserved across the call.
			bpf_mov R6 = 1
			bpf_call foo
			bpf_mov R0 = R6
			bpf_exit
			is a correct program. If there was R1 instead of R6, it would have
			been rejected.

			load/store instructions are allowed only with registers of valid types, which
			are PTR_TO_CTX, PTR_TO_MAP, FRAME_PTR. They are bounds and alignment checked.
			For example:
			bpf_mov R1 = 1
			bpf_mov R2 = 2
			bpf_xadd (u32 )(R1 + 3) += R2
			bpf_exit
			will be rejected, since R1 doesn't have a valid pointer type at the time of
			execution of instruction bpf_xadd.

			At the start R1 type is PTR_TO_CTX (a pointer to generic 'struct bpf_context')
			A callback is used to customize verifier to restrict eBPF program access to only
			certain fields within ctx structure with specified size and alignment.

			For example, the following insn:
			bpf_ld R0 = (u32 )(R6 + 8)
			intends to load a word from address R6 + 8 and store it into R0
			If R6=PTR_TO_CTX, via is_valid_access() callback the verifier will know
			that offset 8 of size 4 bytes can be accessed for reading, otherwise
			the verifier will reject the program.
			If R6=FRAME_PTR, then access should be aligned and be within
			stack bounds, which are [-MAX_BPF_STACK, 0). In this example offset is 8,
			so it will fail verification, since it's out of bounds.

			The verifier will allow eBPF program to read data from stack only after
			it wrote into it.
			Classic BPF verifier does similar check with M[0-15] memory slots.
			For example:
			bpf_ld R0 = (u32 )(R10 - 4)
			bpf_exit
			is invalid program.
			Though R10 is correct read-only register and has type FRAME_PTR
			and R10 - 4 is within stack bounds, there were no stores into that location.

			Pointer register spill/fill is tracked as well, since four (R6-R9)
			callee saved registers may not be enough for some programs.

			Allowed function calls are customized with bpf_verifier_ops->get_func_proto()
			The eBPF verifier will check that registers match argument constraints.
			After the call register R0 will be set to return type of the function.

			Function calls is a main mechanism to extend functionality of eBPF programs.
			Socket filters may let programs to call one set of functions, whereas tracing
			filters may allow completely different set.

			If a function made accessible to eBPF program, it needs to be thought through
			from safety point of view. The verifier will guarantee that the function is
			called with valid arguments.

			seccomp vs socket filters have different security restrictions for classic BPF.
			Seccomp solves this by two stage verifier: classic BPF verifier is followed
			by seccomp verifier. In case of eBPF one configurable verifier is shared for
			all use cases.

			/* bpf_check() is a static code analyzer that walks eBPF program
			* instruction by instruction and updates register/stack state.
			* All paths of conditional branches are analyzed until 'bpf_exit' insn.
			*
			* The first pass is depth-first-search to check that the program is a DAG.
			* It rejects the following programs:
			* - larger than BPF_MAXINSNS insns
			* - if loop is present (detected via back-edge)
			* - unreachable insns exist (shouldn't be a forest. program = one function)
			* - out of bounds or malformed jumps
			* The second pass is all possible path descent from the 1st insn.
			* Since it's analyzing all pathes through the program, the length of the
			* analysis is limited to 32k insn, which may be hit even if total number of
			* insn is less then 4K, but there are too many branches that change stack/regs.
			* Number of 'branches to be analyzed' is limited to 1k
			*
			* On entry to each instruction, each register has a type, and the instruction
			* changes the types of the registers depending on instruction semantics.
			* If instruction is BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_5), then type of R5 is
			* copied to R1.
			*
			* All registers are 64-bit.
			* R0 - return register
			* R1-R5 argument passing registers
			* R6-R9 callee saved registers
			* R10 - frame pointer read-only
			*
			* At the start of BPF program the register R1 contains a pointer to bpf_context
			* and has type PTR_TO_CTX.
			*
			* Verifier tracks arithmetic operations on pointers in case:
			* BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_10),
			* BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_1, -20),
			* 1st insn copies R10 (which has FRAME_PTR) type into R1
			* and 2nd arithmetic instruction is pattern matched to recognize
			* that it wants to construct a pointer to some element within stack.
			* So after 2nd insn, the register R1 has type PTR_TO_STACK
			* (and -20 constant is saved for further stack bounds checking).
			* Meaning that this reg is a pointer to stack plus known immediate constant.
			*
			* Most of the time the registers have UNKNOWN_VALUE type, which
			* means the register has some value, but it's not a valid pointer.
			* (like pointer plus pointer becomes UNKNOWN_VALUE type)
			*
			* When verifier sees load or store instructions the type of base register
			* can be: PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE, PTR_TO_CTX, FRAME_PTR. These are three pointer
			* types recognized by check_mem_access() function.
			*
			* PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE means that this register is pointing to 'map element value'
			* and the range of [ptr, ptr + map's value_size) is accessible.
			*
			* registers used to pass values to function calls are checked against
			* function argument constraints.
			*
			* ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY is one of such argument constraints.
			* It means that the register type passed to this function must be
			* PTR_TO_STACK and it will be used inside the function as
			* 'pointer to map element key'
			*
			* For example the argument constraints for bpf_map_lookup_elem():
			* .ret_type = RET_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL,
			* .arg1_type = ARG_CONST_MAP_PTR,
			* .arg2_type = ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY,
			*
			* ret_type says that this function returns 'pointer to map elem value or null'
			* function expects 1st argument to be a const pointer to 'struct bpf_map' and
			* 2nd argument should be a pointer to stack, which will be used inside
			* the helper function as a pointer to map element key.
			*
			* On the kernel side the helper function looks like:
			* u64 bpf_map_lookup_elem(u64 r1, u64 r2, u64 r3, u64 r4, u64 r5)
			* {
			* struct bpf_map map = (struct bpf_map ) (unsigned long) r1;
			* void key = (void ) (unsigned long) r2;
			* void *value;
			*
			* here kernel can access 'key' and 'map' pointers safely, knowing that
			* [key, key + map->key_size) bytes are valid and were initialized on
			* the stack of eBPF program.
			* }
			*
			* Corresponding eBPF program may look like:
			* BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_2, BPF_REG_10), // after this insn R2 type is FRAME_PTR
			* BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_2, -4), // after this insn R2 type is PTR_TO_STACK
			* BPF_LD_MAP_FD(BPF_REG_1, map_fd), // after this insn R1 type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP
			* BPF_RAW_INSN(BPF_JMP \| BPF_CALL, 0, 0, 0, BPF_FUNC_map_lookup_elem),
			* here verifier looks at prototype of map_lookup_elem() and sees:
			* .arg1_type == ARG_CONST_MAP_PTR and R1->type == CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, which is ok,
			* Now verifier knows that this map has key of R1->map_ptr->key_size bytes
			*
			* Then .arg2_type == ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY and R2->type == PTR_TO_STACK, ok so far,
			* Now verifier checks that [R2, R2 + map's key_size) are within stack limits
			* and were initialized prior to this call.
			* If it's ok, then verifier allows this BPF_CALL insn and looks at
			* .ret_type which is RET_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL, so it sets
			* R0->type = PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL which means bpf_map_lookup_elem() function
			* returns ether pointer to map value or NULL.
			*
			* When type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL passes through 'if (reg != 0) goto +off'
			* insn, the register holding that pointer in the true branch changes state to
			* PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE and the same register changes state to CONST_IMM in the false
			* branch. See check_cond_jmp_op().
			*
			* After the call R0 is set to return type of the function and registers R1-R5
			* are set to NOT_INIT to indicate that they are no longer readable.
