Subject: bpf/verifier: Optimize ID mapping reset in states_equal
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f81c07a6e98e3171d0c4c5ab79f5aeff71b42c44;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

bpf/verifier: Optimize ID mapping reset in states_equal

Currently, reset_idmap_scratch() performs a 4.7KB memset() in every
states_equal() call. Optimize this by using a counter to track used
ID mappings, replacing the O(N) memset() with an O(1) reset and
bounding the search loop in check_ids().
