bpf: introduce function calls (verification)
Allow arbitrary function calls from bpf function to another bpf function. To recognize such set of bpf functions the verifier does: 1. runs control flow analysis to detect function boundaries 2. proceeds with verification of all functions starting from main(root) function It recognizes that the stack of the caller can be accessed by the callee (if the caller passed a pointer to its stack to the callee) and the callee can store map_value and other pointers into the stack of the caller. 3. keeps track of the stack_depth of each function to make sure that total stack depth is still less than 512 bytes 4. disallows pointers to the callee stack to be stored into the caller stack, since they will be invalid as soon as the callee returns 5. to reuse all of the existing state_pruning logic each function call is considered to be independent call from the verifier point of view. The verifier pretends to inline all function calls it sees are being called. It stores the callsite instruction index as part of the state to make sure that two calls to the same callee from two different places in the caller will be different from state pruning point of view 6. more safety checks are added to liveness analysis Implementation details: . struct bpf_verifier_state is now consists of all stack frames that led to this function . struct bpf_func_state represent one stack frame. It consists of registers in the given frame and its stack . propagate_liveness() logic had a premature optimization where mark_reg_read() and mark_stack_slot_read() were manually inlined with loop iterating over parents for each register or stack slot. Undo this optimization to reuse more complex mark_*_read() logic . skip_callee() logic is not necessary from safety point of view, but without it mark_*_read() markings become too conservative, since after returning from the funciton call a read of r6-r9 will incorrectly propagate the read marks into callee causing inefficient pruning later . mark_*_read() logic is now aware of control flow which makes it more complex. In the future the plan is to rewrite liveness to be hierarchical. So that liveness can be done within basic block only and control flow will be responsible for propagation of liveness information along cfg and between calls. . tail_calls and ld_abs insns are not allowed in the programs with bpf-to-bpf calls . returning stack pointers to the caller or storing them into stack frame of the caller is not allowed Testing: . no difference in cilium processed_insn numbers . large number of tests follows in next patches Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
