bpf: Add BPF-helper for MTU checking
This BPF-helper bpf_check_mtu() works for both XDP and TC-BPF programs. The SKB object is complex and the skb->len value (accessible from BPF-prog) also include the length of any extra GRO/GSO segments, but without taking into account that these GRO/GSO segments get added transport (L4) and network (L3) headers before being transmitted. Thus, this BPF-helper is created such that the BPF-programmer don't need to handle these details in the BPF-prog. The API is designed to help the BPF-programmer, that want to do packet context size changes, which involves other helpers. These other helpers usually does a delta size adjustment. This helper also support a delta size (len_diff), which allow BPF-programmer to reuse arguments needed by these other helpers, and perform the MTU check prior to doing any actual size adjustment of the packet context. It is on purpose, that we allow the len adjustment to become a negative result, that will pass the MTU check. This might seem weird, but it's not this helpers responsibility to "catch" wrong len_diff adjustments. Other helpers will take care of these checks, if BPF-programmer chooses to do actual size adjustment. V14: - Improve man-page desc of len_diff. V13: - Enforce flag BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS cannot use len_diff. V12: - Simplify segment check that calls skb_gso_validate_network_len. - Helpers should return long V9: - Use dev->hard_header_len (instead of ETH_HLEN) - Annotate with unlikely req from Daniel - Fix logic error using skb_gso_validate_network_len from Daniel V6: - Took John's advice and dropped BPF_MTU_CHK_RELAX - Returned MTU is kept at L3-level (like fib_lookup) V4: Lot of changes - ifindex 0 now use current netdev for MTU lookup - rename helper from bpf_mtu_check to bpf_check_mtu - fix bug for GSO pkt length (as skb->len is total len) - remove __bpf_len_adj_positive, simply allow negative len adj Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/161287790461.790810.3429728639563297353.stgit@firesoul
