The reg_bounds_crafted tests validate the verifier's range analysis logic. They focus on the actual ranges and thus ignore the tnum. As a consequence, they carry the assumption that the tested cases can be reproduced in userspace without using the tnum information. Unfortunately, the previous change the refinement logic breaks that assumption for one test case: (u64)2147483648 (u32)<op> [4294967294; 0x100000000] The tested bytecode is shown below. Without our previous improvement, on the false branch of the condition, R7 is only known to have u64 range [0xfffffffe; 0x100000000]. With our improvement, and using the tnum information, we can deduce that R7 equals 0x100000000. 19: (bc) w0 = w6 ; R6=0x80000000 20: (bc) w0 = w7 ; R7=scalar(smin=umin=0xfffffffe,smax=umax=0x100000000,smin32=-2,smax32=0,var_off=(0x0; 0x1ffffffff)) 21: (be) if w6 <= w7 goto pc+3 ; R6=0x80000000 R7=0x100000000 R7's tnum is (0; 0x1ffffffff). On the false branch, regs_refine_cond_op refines R7's u32 range to [0; 0x7fffffff]. Then, __reg32_deduce_bounds refines the s32 range to 0 using u32 and finally also sets u32=0. From this, __reg_bound_offset improves the tnum to (0; 0x100000000). Finally, our previous patch uses this new tnum to deduce that it only intersect with u64=[0xfffffffe; 0x100000000] in a single value: 0x100000000. Because the verifier uses the tnum to reach this constant value, the selftest is unable to reproduce it by only simulating ranges. The solution implemented in this patch is to change the test case such that there is more than one overlap value between u64 and the tnum. The max. u64 value is thus changed from 0x100000000 to 0x300000000.
