From a1b14abc009d9c13be355dbd4a4c4d47816ad3db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jakub Kicinski Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 22:45:21 -0800 Subject: bpf: verifier: remove unconditional branches by 0 Unconditional branches by 0 instructions are basically noops but they can result from earlier optimizations, e.g. a conditional jumps which would never be taken or a conditional jump around dead code. Remove those branches. v0.2: - s/opt_remove_dead_branches/opt_remove_nops/ (Jiong).
