If we attach fexit/fmod_ret to __noreturn functions, it will cause an
issue that the bpf trampoline image will be left over even if the bpf
link has been destroyed. Take attaching do_exit() with fexit for example.
The fexit works as follows,
bpf_trampoline
+ __bpf_tramp_enter
+ percpu_ref_get(&tr->pcref);
+ call do_exit()
+ __bpf_tramp_exit
+ percpu_ref_put(&tr->pcref);
Since do_exit() never returns, the refcnt of the trampoline image is
never decremented, preventing it from being freed. That can be verified
with as follows,
$ bpftool link show <<<< nothing output
$ grep "bpf_trampoline_[0-9]" /proc/kallsyms
ffffffffc04cb000 t bpf_trampoline_6442526459 [bpf] <<<< leftover
In this patch, all functions annotated with __noreturn are rejected, except
for the following cases:
- Functions that result in a system reboot, such as panic,
machine_real_restart and rust_begin_unwind
- Functions that are never executed by tasks, such as rest_init and
cpu_startup_entry
- Functions implemented in assembly, such as rewind_stack_and_make_dead and
xen_cpu_bringup_again, lack an associated BTF ID.
With this change, attaching fexit probes to functions like do_exit() will
be rejected.
$ ./fexit
libbpf: prog 'fexit': BPF program load failed: -EINVAL
libbpf: prog 'fexit': -- BEGIN PROG LOAD LOG --
Attaching fexit/fmod_ret to __noreturn functions is rejected.

storage
The current cgrp storage has a percpu counter, bpf_cgrp_storage_busy,
to detect potential deadlock at a spin_lock that the local storage
acquires during new storage creation.
There are false positives. It turns out to be too noisy in
production. For example, a bpf prog may be doing a
bpf_cgrp_storage_get on map_a. An IRQ comes in and triggers
another bpf_cgrp_storage_get on a different map_b. It will then
trigger the false positive deadlock check in the percpu counter.
On top of that, both are doing lookup only and no need to create
new storage, so practically it does not need to acquire
the spin_lock.
The bpf_task_storage_get already has a strategy to minimize this
false positive by only failing if the bpf_task_storage_get needs
to create a new storage and the percpu counter is busy. Creating
a new storage is the only time it must acquire the spin_lock.
This patch borrows the same idea. Unlike task storage that
has a separate variant for tracing (_recur) and non-tracing, this
patch stays with one bpf_cgrp_storage_get helper to keep it simple
for now in light of the upcoming res_spin_lock.
The variable could potentially use a better name noTbusy instead
of nobusy. This patch follows the same naming in
bpf_task_storage_get for now.
I have tested it by temporarily adding noinline to
the cgroup_storage_lookup(), traced it by fentry, and the fentry
program succeeded in calling bpf_cgrp_storage_get().

Fixed some formatting specifiers errors, such as using %d for int and %u
for unsigned int, as well as other byte-length types.
Perform type cast using the type derived from the data type itself, for
example, if it's originally an int, it will be cast to unsigned int if
forced to unsigned.

Certain bpf syscall subcommands are available for usage from both
userspace and the kernel. LSM modules or eBPF gatekeeper programs may
need to take a different course of action depending on whether or not
a BPF syscall originated from the kernel or userspace.
Additionally, some of the bpf_attr struct fields contain pointers to
arbitrary memory. Currently the functionality to determine whether or
not a pointer refers to kernel memory or userspace memory is exposed
to the bpf verifier, but that information is missing from various LSM
hooks.
Here we augment the LSM hooks to provide this data, by simply passing
a boolean flag indicating whether or not the call originated in the
kernel, in any hook that contains a bpf_attr struct that corresponds
to a subcommand that may be called from the kernel.

Liveness analysis DFA computes a set of registers live before each
instruction. Leverage this information to skip comparison of dead
registers in func_states_equal(). This helps with convergance of
iterator processing loops, as bpf_reg_state->live marks can't be used
when loops are processed.

Compute may-live registers before each instruction in the program.
The register is live before the instruction I if it is read by I or
some instruction S following I during program execution and is not
overwritten between I and S.
This information would be used in the next patch as a hint in
func_states_equal().
Use a simple algorithm described in [1] to compute this information:
- define the following:
- I.use : a set of all registers read by instruction I;
- I.def : a set of all registers written by instruction I;
- I.in : a set of all registers that may be alive before I execution;
- I.out : a set of all registers that may be alive after I execution;
- I.successors : a set of instructions S that might immediately
follow I for some program execution;
- associate separate empty sets 'I.in' and 'I.out' with each instruction;
- visit each instruction in a postorder and update corresponding
'I.in' and 'I.out' sets as follows:
I.out = U [S.in for S in I.successors]
I.in = (I.out / I.def) U I.use
(where U stands for set union, / stands for set difference)
- repeat the computation while I.{in,out} changes for any instruction.
On implementation side keep things as simple, as possible:
- check_cfg() already marks instructions EXPLORED in post-order,
modify it to save the index of each EXPLORED instruction in a vector;
- represent I.{in,out,use,def} as bitmasks;
- don't split the program into basic blocks and don't maintain the
work queue, instead:
- do fixed-point computation by visiting each instruction;
- maintain a simple 'changed' flag if I.{in,out} for any instruction
change;
Measurements show that even such simplistic implementation does not
add measurable verification time overhead (for selftests, at-least).
Note on check_cfg() ex_insn_beg/ex_done change:
To avoid out of bounds access to env->cfg.insn_postorder array,
it should be guaranteed that instruction transitions to EXPLORED state
only once. Previously this was not the fact for incorrect programs
with direct calls to exception callbacks.
The 'align' selftest needs adjustment to skip computed insn/live
registers printout. Otherwise it matches lines from the live registers
printout.

Extract two utility functions:
- One BPF jump instruction uses .imm field to encode jump offset,
while the rest use .off. Encapsulate this detail as jmp_offset()
function.
- Avoid duplicating instruction printing callback definitions by
defining a verbose_insn() function, which disassembles an
instruction into the verifier log while hiding this detail.
These functions will be used in the next patch.

Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release
semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags:
#define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100
#define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110
A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm'
field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100).
Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with
the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110).
Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support
BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and
store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an
exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not
supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the
kernel test robot).
An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to
a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends.
Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned
load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if
BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set).
As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF
instruction (assuming little-endian):
db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))
opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ
Similarly, a 16-bit BPF store-release:
cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00 store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2)
opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL
In arch/{arm64,s390,x86}/net/bpf_jit_comp.c, have
bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) return false for the new
instructions, until the corresponding JIT compiler supports them in
arena.

Implement support in the verifier for replacing may_goto implementation
from a counter-based approach to one which samples time on the local CPU
to have a bigger loop bound.
We implement it by maintaining 16-bytes per-stack frame, and using 8
bytes for maintaining the count for amortizing time sampling, and 8
bytes for the starting timestamp. To minimize overhead, we need to avoid
spilling and filling of registers around this sequence, so we push this
cost into the time sampling function 'arch_bpf_timed_may_goto'. This is
a JIT-specific wrapper around bpf_check_timed_may_goto which returns us
the count to store into the stack through BPF_REG_AX. All caller-saved
registers (r0-r5) are guaranteed to remain untouched.
The loop can be broken by returning count as 0, otherwise we dispatch
into the function when the count drops to 0, and the runtime chooses to
refresh it (by returning count as BPF_MAX_TIMED_LOOPS) or returning 0
and aborting the loop on next iteration.
Since the check for 0 is done right after loading the count from the
stack, all subsequent cond_break sequences should immediately break as
well, of the same loop or subsequent loops in the program.
We pass in the stack_depth of the count (and thus the timestamp, by
adding 8 to it) to the arch_bpf_timed_may_goto call so that it can be
passed in to bpf_check_timed_may_goto as an argument after r1 is saved,
by adding the offset to r10/fp. This adjustment will be arch specific,
and the next patch will introduce support for x86.
Note that depending on loop complexity, time spent in the loop can be
more than the current limit (250 ms), but imposing an upper bound on
program runtime is an orthogonal problem which will be addressed when
program cancellations are supported.
The current time afforded by cond_break may not be enough for cases
where BPF programs want to implement locking algorithms inline, and use
cond_break as a promise to the verifier that they will eventually
terminate.
Below are some benchmarking numbers on the time taken per-iteration for
an empty loop that counts the number of iterations until cond_break
fires. For comparison, we compare it against bpf_for/bpf_repeat which is
another way to achieve the same number of spins (BPF_MAX_LOOPS). The
hardware used for benchmarking was a Sapphire Rapids Intel server with
performance governor enabled, mitigations were enabled.
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
| Loop type | Iterations | Time (ms) | Time/iter (ns) |
+-----------------------------|--------------+--------------+------------------+
| may_goto | 8388608 | 3 | 0.36 |
| timed_may_goto (count=65535)| 589674932 | 250 | 0.42 |
| bpf_for | 8388608 | 10 | 1.19 |
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
This gives a good approximation at low overhead while staying close to
the current implementation.

instructions. Since we are planning to introduce other types of atomic

The verifier currently does not permit global subprog calls when a lock
is held, preemption is disabled, or when IRQs are disabled. This is
because we don't know whether the global subprog calls sleepable
functions or not.
In case of locks, there's an additional reason: functions called by the
global subprog may hold additional locks etc. The verifier won't know
while verifying the global subprog whether it was called in context
where a spin lock is already held by the program.
Perform summarization of the sleepable nature of a global subprog just
like changes_pkt_data and then allow calls to global subprogs for
non-sleepable ones from atomic context.
While making this change, I noticed that RCU read sections had no
protection against sleepable global subprog calls, include it in the
checks and fix this while we're at it.
Care needs to be taken to not allow global subprog calls when regular
bpf_spin_lock is held. When resilient spin locks is held, we want to
potentially have this check relaxed, but not for now.
Also make sure extensions freplacing global functions cannot do so
in case the target is non-sleepable, but the extension is. The other
combination is ok.
Tests are included in the next patch to handle all special conditions.

Currently for bpf progs in a cgroup hierarchy, the effective prog array
is computed from bottom cgroup to upper cgroups (post-ordering). For
example, the following cgroup hierarchy
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
have BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI for both cgroup levels.
The effective cgroup array ordering looks like
p3 p4 p1 p2
and at run time, progs will execute based on that order.
But in some cases, it is desirable to have root prog executes earlier than
children progs (pre-ordering). For example,
- prog p1 intends to collect original pkt dest addresses.
- prog p3 will modify original pkt dest addresses to a proxy address for
security reason.
The end result is that prog p1 gets proxy address which is not what it
wants. Putting p1 to every child cgroup is not desirable either as it
will duplicate itself in many child cgroups. And this is exactly a use case
we are encountering in Meta.
To fix this issue, let us introduce a flag BPF_F_PREORDER. If the flag
is specified at attachment time, the prog has higher priority and the
ordering with that flag will be from top to bottom (pre-ordering).
For example, in the above example,
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
Let us say p2 and p4 are marked with BPF_F_PREORDER. The final
effective array ordering will be
p2 p4 p3 p1

Introducing bpf_dynptr_copy kfunc allowing copying data from one dynptr to
another. This functionality is useful in scenarios such as capturing XDP
data to a ring buffer.
The implementation consists of 4 branches:
* A fast branch for contiguous buffer capacity in both source and
destination dynptrs
* 3 branches utilizing __bpf_dynptr_read and __bpf_dynptr_write to copy
data to/from non-contiguous buffer

Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

Due to this recent commit in the x86 tree:
9d7de2aa8b41 ("Use relative percpu offsets")
percpu addresses went from positive offsets from the GSBASE to negative
kernel virtual addresses. The BPF verifier has an optimization for
x86-64 that loads the address of cpu_number into a register, but was only
doing a 32-bit load which truncates negative addresses.
Change it to a 64-bit load so that the address is properly sign-extended.

Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

Now that cpumap uses GRO, which drops unused skb heads to the NAPI
cache, use napi_skb_cache_get_bulk() to try to reuse cached entries
and lower MM layer pressure. Always disable the BH before checking and
running the cpumap-pinned XDP prog and don't re-enable it in between
that and allocating an skb bulk, as we can access the NAPI caches only
from the BH context.
The better GRO aggregates packets, the less new skbs will be allocated.
If an aggregated skb contains 16 frags, this means 15 skbs were returned
to the cache, so next 15 skbs will be built without allocating anything.
The same trafficgen UDP GRO test now shows:
GRO off GRO on
threaded GRO 2.3 4 Mpps
thr bulk GRO 2.4 4.7 Mpps
diff +4 +17 %
Comparing to the baseline cpumap:
baseline 2.7 N/A Mpps

diff -11 +74 %

cpumap still uses linked lists to store a list of skbs to pass to the
stack. Now that we don't use listified Rx in favor of
napi_gro_receive(), linked list is now an unneeded overhead.
Inside the polling loop, we already have an array of skbs. Let's reuse
it for skbs passed to cpumap (generic XDP) and keep there in case of
XDP_PASS when a program is installed to the map itself. Don't list
regular xdp_frames after converting them to skbs as well; store them
in the mentioned array (but *before* generic skbs as the latters have
lower priority) and call gro_receive_skb() for each array element after
they're done.

cpumap has its own BH context based on kthread. It has a sane batch
size of 8 frames per one cycle.
GRO can be used here on its own. Adjust cpumap calls to the upper stack
to use GRO API instead of netif_receive_skb_list() which processes skbs
by batches, but doesn't involve GRO layer at all.
In plenty of tests, GRO performs better than listed receiving even
given that it has to calculate full frame checksums on the CPU.
As GRO passes the skbs to the upper stack in the batches of
@gro_normal_batch, i.e. 8 by default, and skb->dev points to the
device where the frame comes from, it is enough to disable GRO
netdev feature on it to completely restore the original behaviour:
untouched frames will be being bulked and passed to the upper stack
by 8, as it was with netif_receive_skb_list().

Test gen_prologue and gen_epilogue that generate kfuncs that have not
been seen in the main program.
The main bpf program and return value checks are identical to
pro_epilogue.c introduced in commit 47e69431b57a ("selftests/bpf: Test
gen_prologue and gen_epilogue"). However, now when bpf_testmod_st_ops
detects a program name with prefix "test_kfunc_", it generates slightly
different prologue and epilogue: They still add 1000 to args->a in
prologue, add 10000 to args->a and set r0 to 2 * args->a in epilogue,
but involve kfuncs.
At high level, the alternative version of prologue and epilogue look
like this:
cgrp = bpf_cgroup_from_id(0);
if (cgrp)
bpf_cgroup_release(cgrp);
else
/* Perform what original bpf_testmod_st_ops prologue or
* epilogue does
*/
Since 0 is never a valid cgroup id, the original prologue or epilogue
logic will be performed. As a result, the __retval check should expect
the exact same return value.

Vlad Poenaru reported the following kmemleak issue:

do_syscall_64+0x7b/0x150
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53
Further investigation shows the reason is due to not 8-byte aligned
store of percpu pointer in htab_elem_set_ptr():
*(void __percpu **)(l->key + key_size) = pptr;
Note that the whole htab_elem alignment is 8 (for x86_64). If the key_size
is 4, that means pptr is stored in a location which is 4 byte aligned but
not 8 byte aligned. In mm/kmemleak.c, scan_block() scans the memory based
on 8 byte stride, so it won't detect above pptr, hence reporting the memory
leak.
In htab_map_alloc(), we already have
htab->elem_size = sizeof(struct htab_elem) +
round_up(htab->map.key_size, 8);
if (percpu)
htab->elem_size += sizeof(void *);
else
htab->elem_size += round_up(htab->map.value_size, 8);
So storing pptr with 8-byte alignment won't cause any problem and can fix
kmemleak too.
The issue can be reproduced with bpf selftest as well:
1. Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK config
2. Add a getchar() before skel destroy in test_hash_map() in prog_tests/for_each.c.
The purpose is to keep map available so kmemleak can be detected.
3. run './test_progs -t for_each/hash_map &' and a kmemleak should be reported.

Reduce the variable passing madness surrounding check_ctx_access().
Currently, check_mem_access() passes many pointers to local variables to
check_ctx_access(). They are used to initialize "struct
bpf_insn_access_aux info" in check_ctx_access() and then passed to
is_valid_access(). Then, check_ctx_access() takes the data our from
info and write them back the pointers to pass them back. This can be
simpilified by moving info up to check_mem_access().

For example, BPF program will limit tracking X numbers of packets

When fixes from patches 1 and 3 are applied, Patrick Somaru reported
an increase in memory consumption for sched_ext iterator-based
programs hitting 1M instructions limit. For example, 2Gb VMs ran out
of memory while verifying a program. Similar behaviour could be
reproduced on current bpf-next master.
Here is an example of such program:
/* verification completes if given 16G or RAM,
* final env->free_list size is 369,960 entries.
*/
SEC("raw_tp")
__flag(BPF_F_TEST_STATE_FREQ)
__success
int free_list_bomb(const void *ctx)
{
volatile char buf[48] = {};
unsigned i, j;
j = 0;
bpf_for(i, 0, 10) {
/* this forks verifier state:
* - verification of current path continues and
* creates a checkpoint after 'if';
* - verification of forked path hits the
* checkpoint and marks it as loop_entry.
*/
if (bpf_get_prandom_u32())
asm volatile ("");
/* this marks 'j' as precise, thus any checkpoint
* created on current iteration would not be matched
* on the next iteration.
*/
buf[j++] = 42;
j %= ARRAY_SIZE(buf);
}
asm volatile (""::"r"(buf));
return 0;
}
Memory consumption increased due to more states being marked as loop
entries and eventually added to env->free_list.
This commit introduces logic to free states from env->free_list during
verification. A state in env->free_list can be freed if:
- it has no child states;
- it is not used as a loop_entry.
This commit:
- updates bpf_verifier_state->used_as_loop_entry to be a counter
that tracks how many states use this one as a loop entry;
- adds a function maybe_free_verifier_state(), which:
- frees a state if its ->branches and ->used_as_loop_entry counters
are both zero;
- if the state is freed, state->loop_entry->used_as_loop_entry is
decremented, and an attempt is made to free state->loop_entry.
In the example above, this approach reduces the maximum number of
states in the free list from 369,960 to 16,223.
However, this approach has its limitations. If the buf size in the
example above is modified to 64, state caching overflows: the state
for j=0 is evicted from the cache before it can be used to stop
traversal. As a result, states in the free list accumulate because
their branch counters do not reach zero.
The effect of this patch on the selftests looks as follows:
