The commit7640ead939partially resolved the issue of callees incorrectly pruning the callers. With introduction of bounded loops and jmps_processed heuristic single verifier state may contain multiple branches and calls. It's possible that new verifier state (for future pruning) will be allocated inside callee. Then callee will exit (still within the same verifier state). It will go back to the caller and there R6-R9 registers will be read and will trigger mark_reg_read. But the reg->live for all frames but the top frame is not set to LIVE_NONE. Hence mark_reg_read will fail to propagate liveness into parent and future walking will incorrectly conclude that the states are equivalent because LIVE_READ is not set. In other words the rule for parent/live should be: whenever register parentage chain is set the reg->live should be set to LIVE_NONE. is_state_visited logic already follows this rule for spilled registers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
