bpf_cgroup_acquire(), bpf_cgroup_release(), bpf_cgroup_kptr_get(), and bpf_cgroup_ancestor(), are kfuncs that were recently added to kernel/bpf/helpers.c. These are "core" kfuncs in that they're available for use in any tracepoint or struct_ops BPF program. Though they have no ABI stability guarantees, we should still document them. This patch adds a struct cgroup * subsection to the Core kfuncs section which describes each of these kfuncs.

2022-11-20bpf: Allow trusted pointers to be passed to KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfuncsDavid Vernet1-16/+14
Kfuncs currently support specifying the KF_TRUSTED_ARGS flag to signal to the verifier that it should enforce that a BPF program passes it a "safe", trusted pointer. Currently, "safe" means that the pointer is either PTR_TO_CTX, or is refcounted. There may be cases, however, where the kernel passes a BPF program a safe / trusted pointer to an object that the BPF program wishes to use as a kptr, but because the object does not yet have a ref_obj_id from the perspective of the verifier, the program would be unable to pass it to a KF_ACQUIRE | KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfunc. The solution is to expand the set of pointers that are considered trusted according to KF_TRUSTED_ARGS, so that programs can invoke kfuncs with these pointers without getting rejected by the verifier. There is already a PTR_UNTRUSTED flag that is set in some scenarios, such as when a BPF program reads a kptr directly from a map without performing a bpf_kptr_xchg() call. These pointers of course can and should be rejected by the verifier. Unfortunately, however, PTR_UNTRUSTED does not cover all the cases for safety that need to be addressed to adequately protect kfuncs. Specifically, pointers obtained by a BPF program "walking" a struct are _not_ considered PTR_UNTRUSTED according to BPF. For example, say that we were to add a kfunc called bpf_task_acquire(), with KF_ACQUIRE | KF_TRUSTED_ARGS, to acquire a struct task_struct *. If we only used PTR_UNTRUSTED to signal that a task was unsafe to pass to a kfunc, the verifier would mistakenly allow the following unsafe BPF program to be loaded: SEC("tp_btf/task_newtask") int BPF_PROG(unsafe_acquire_task, struct task_struct *task, u64 clone_flags) { struct task_struct *acquired, *nested; nested = task->last_wakee; /* Would not be rejected by the verifier. */ acquired = bpf_task_acquire(nested); if (!acquired) return 0; bpf_task_release(acquired); return 0; } To address this, this patch defines a new type flag called PTR_TRUSTED which tracks whether a PTR_TO_BTF_ID pointer is safe to pass to a KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfunc or a BPF helper function. PTR_TRUSTED pointers are passed directly from the kernel as a tracepoint or struct_ops callback argument. Any nested pointer that is obtained from walking a PTR_TRUSTED pointer is no longer PTR_TRUSTED. From the example above, the struct task_struct *task argument is PTR_TRUSTED, but the 'nested' pointer obtained from 'task->last_wakee' is not PTR_TRUSTED. A subsequent patch will add kfuncs for storing a task kfunc as a kptr, and then another patch will add selftests to validate.

2022-11-18bpf: Support constant scalar arguments for kfuncsKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi1-0/+24
Allow passing known constant scalars as arguments to kfuncs that do not represent a size parameter. We use mark_chain_precision for the constant scalar argument to mark it precise. This makes the search pruning optimization of verifier more conservative for such kfunc calls, and each non-distinct argument is considered unequivalent. We will use this support to then expose a bpf_obj_new function where it takes the local type ID of a type in program BTF, and returns a PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC to the local type, and allows programs to allocate their own objects. Each type ID resolves to a distinct type with a possibly distinct size, hence the type ID constant matters in terms of program safety and its precision needs to be checked between old and cur states inside regsafe. The use of mark_chain_precision enables this.

This change documents the process for running the BPF CI before submitting a patch to the upstream mailing list, similar to what happens if a patch is send to bpf@vger.kernel.org: it builds kernel and selftests and runs the latter on different architecture (but it notably does not cover stylistic checks such as cover letter verification). Running BPF CI this way can help achieve better test coverage ahead of patch submission than merely running locally (say, using tools/testing/selftests/bpf/vmtest.sh), as additional architectures may be covered as well.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core: - Introduce and use a single page frag cache for allocating small skb heads, clawing back the 10-20% performance regression in UDP flood test from previous fixes. - Run packets which already went thru HW coalescing thru SW GRO. This significantly improves TCP segment coalescing and simplifies deployments as different workloads benefit from HW or SW GRO. - Shrink the size of the base zero-copy send structure. - Move TCP init under a new slow / sleepable version of DO_ONCE(). BPF: - Add BPF-specific, any-context-safe memory allocator. - Add helpers/kfuncs for PKCS#7 signature verification from BPF programs. - Define a new map type and related helpers for user space -> kernel communication over a ring buffer (BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF). - Allow targeting BPF iterators to loop through resources of one task/thread. - Add ability to call selected destructive functions. Expose crash_kexec() to allow BPF to trigger a kernel dump. Use CAP_SYS_BOOT check on the loading process to judge permissions. - Enable BPF to collect custom hierarchical cgroup stats efficiently by integrating with the rstat framework. - Support struct arguments for trampoline based programs. Only structs with size <= 16B and x86 are supported. - Invoke cgroup/connect{4,6} programs for unprivileged ICMP ping sockets (instead of just TCP and UDP sockets). - Add a helper for accessing CLOCK_TAI for time sensitive network related programs. - Support accessing network tunnel metadata's flags. - Make TCP SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF programs with TCP Fast Open. - Add support for writing to Netfilter's nf_conn:mark. Protocols: - WiFi: more Extremely High Throughput (EHT) and Multi-Link Operation (MLO) work (802.11be, WiFi 7). - vsock: improve support for SO_RCVLOWAT. - SMC: support SO_REUSEPORT. - Netlink: define and document how to use netlink in a "modern" way. Support reporting missing attributes via extended ACK. - IPSec: support collect metadata mode for xfrm interfaces. - TCPv6: send consistent autoflowlabel in SYN_RECV state and RST packets. - TCP: introduce optional per-netns connection hash table to allow better isolation between namespaces (opt-in, at the cost of memory and cache pressure). - MPTCP: support TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT. - Add NEXT-C-SID support in Segment Routing (SRv6) End behavior. - Adjust IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt behavior for connected UDP sockets. - Open vSwitch: - Allow specifying ifindex of new interfaces. - Allow conntrack and metering in non-initial user namespace. - TLS: support the Korean ARIA-GCM crypto algorithm. - Remove DECnet support. Driver API: - Allow selecting the conduit interface used by each port in DSA switches, at runtime. - Ethernet Power Sourcing Equipment and Power Device support. - Add tc-taprio support for queueMaxSDU parameter, i.e. setting per traffic class max frame size for time-based packet schedules. - Support PHY rate matching - adapting between differing host-side and link-side speeds. - Introduce QUSGMII PHY mode and 1000BASE-KX interface mode. - Validate OF (device tree) nodes for DSA shared ports; make phylink-related properties mandatory on DSA and CPU ports.

2022-09-22bpf: Tweak definition of KF_TRUSTED_ARGSKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi1-8/+16
Instead of forcing all arguments to be referenced pointers with non-zero reg->ref_obj_id, tweak the definition of KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to mean that only PTR_TO_BTF_ID (and socket types translated to PTR_TO_BTF_ID) have that constraint, and require their offset to be set to 0. The rest of pointer types are also accomodated in this definition of trusted pointers, but with more relaxed rules regarding offsets. The inherent meaning of setting this flag is that all kfunc pointer arguments have a guranteed lifetime, and kernel object pointers (PTR_TO_BTF_ID, PTR_TO_CTX) are passed in their unmodified form (with offset 0). In general, this is not true for PTR_TO_BTF_ID as it can be obtained using pointer walks.
