Hi again,

similar bugs have started showing up recently.
When I run the attached program (note it uses
SO_SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, which as far as I understand is a no-op)
on the KMSAN-enabled kernel (currently using v5.7-rc4) I see the
following errors:

=====================================================

=====================================================

This basically means that BPF's output register was uninitialized when
___bpf_prog_run() returned.

When I replace the lines initializing registers A and X in net/core/filter.c:

-               *new_insn++ = BPF_ALU32_REG(BPF_XOR, BPF_REG_A, BPF_REG_A);
-               *new_insn++ = BPF_ALU32_REG(BPF_XOR, BPF_REG_X, BPF_REG_X);

with

+               *new_insn++ = BPF_MOV32_IMM(BPF_REG_A, 0);
+               *new_insn++ = BPF_MOV32_IMM(BPF_REG_X, 0);

, the bug goes away, therefore I think it's being caused by XORing the
initially uninitialized registers with themselves.

kernel/bpf/core.c:1408, where the uninitialized value was stored to
memory, points to the "ALU(ADD,  +)" macro in ___bpf_prog_run().
But the debug info seems to be incorrect here: if I comment this line
out and unroll the macro manually, KMSAN points to "ALU(SUB,  -)".
Most certainly it's actually one of the XOR instruction declarations.

Do you think it makes sense to use the UB-proof BPF_MOV32_IMM
instructions to initialize the registers?
