/*
 * This file implements live stack slots analysis. After accumulating
 * stack usage data, the analysis answers queries about whether a
 * particular stack slot may be read by an instruction or any of it's
 * successors.  This data is consumed by the verifier states caching
 * mechanism to decide which stack slots are important when looking for a
 * visited state corresponding to the current state.
 *
 * The analysis is call chain sensitive, meaning that data is collected
 * and queried for tuples (call chain, subprogram instruction index).
 * Such sensitivity allows identifying if some subprogram call always
 * leads to writes in the caller's stack.
 *
 * The basic idea is as follows:
 * - As the verifier accumulates a set of visited states, the analysis instance
 *   accumulates a conservative estimate of stack slots that can be read
 *   or must be written for each visited tuple (call chain, instruction index).
 * - If several states happen to visit the same instruction with the same
 *   call chain, stack usage information for the corresponding tuple is joined:
 *   - "may_read" set represents a union of all possibly read slots
 *     (any slot in "may_read" set might be read at or after the instruction);
 *   - "must_write" set represents an intersection of all possibly written slots
 *     (any slot in "must_write" set is guaranteed to be written by the instruction).
 * - The analysis is split into two phases:
 *   - read and write marks accumulation;
 *   - read and write marks propagation.
 * - The propagation phase is a textbook live variable data flow analysis:
 *
 *     state[cc, i].live_after = U [state[cc, s].live_before for s in bpf_insn_successors(i)]
 *     state[cc, i].live_before =
 *       (state[cc, i].live_after / state[cc, i].must_write) U state[i].may_read
 *
 *   Where:
 *   - `U`  stands for set union
 *   - `/`  stands for set difference;
 *   - `cc` stands for a call chain;
 *   - `i` and `s` are instruction indexes;
 *
 *   The above equations are computed for each call chain and instruction
 *   index until state stops changing.
 * - Additionally, in order to transfer "must_write" information from a
 *   subprogram to call instructions invoking this subprogram,
 *   the "must_write_acc" set is tracked for each (cc, i) tuple.
 *   A set of stack slots that are guaranteed to be written by this
 *   instruction or any of its successors (within the subprogram).
 *   The equation for "must_write_acc" propagation looks as follows:
 *
 *     state[cc, i].must_write_acc =
 *       ∩ [state[cc, s].must_write_acc for s in bpf_insn_successors(i)]
 *       U state[cc, i].must_write
 *
 *   (An intersection of all "must_write_acc" for instruction successors
 *    plus all "must_write" slots for the instruction itself).
 * - After the propagation phase completes for a subprogram, information from
 *   (cc, 0) tuple (subprogram entry) is transferred to the caller's call chain:
 *   - "must_write_acc" set is intersected with the call site's "must_write" set;
 *   - "may_read" set is added to the call site's "may_read" set.
 * - Any live stack queries must be taken after the propagation phase.
 * - Accumulation and propagation phases can be entered multiple times,
 *   at any point in time:
 *   - "may_read" set only grows;
 *   - "must_write" set only shrinks;
 *   - for each visited verifier state with zero branches, all relevant
 *     read and write marks are already recorded by the analysis instance.
 *
 * Technically, the analysis is facilitated by the following data structures:
 * - Call chain: for given verifier state, the call chain is a tuple of call
 *   instruction indexes leading to the current subprogram plus the subprogram
 *   entry point index.
 * - Function instance: for a given call chain, for each instruction in
 *   the current subprogram, a mapping between instruction index and a
 *   set of "may_read", "must_write" and other marks accumulated for this
 *   instruction.
 * - A hash table mapping call chains to function instances.
