From 63f45f840634ab5fd71bbc07acff915277764068 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Edward Cree Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2017 15:10:03 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] bpf/verifier: when pruning a branch, ignore its write marks The fact that writes occurred in reaching the continuation state does not screen off its reads from us, because we're not really its parent. So detect 'not really the parent' in do_propagate_liveness, and ignore write marks in that case.
