[ Upstream commit 2b5dcb31a19a2e0acd869b12c9db9b2d696ef544 ]

From commit ebf7d1f508a73871 ("bpf, x64: rework pro/epilogue and tailcall
handling in JIT"), the tailcall on x64 works better than before.

From commit e411901c0b775a3a ("bpf: allow for tailcalls in BPF subprograms
for x64 JIT"), tailcall is able to run in BPF subprograms on x64.

From commit 5b92a28aae4dd0f8 ("bpf: Support attaching tracing BPF program
to other BPF programs"), BPF program is able to trace other BPF programs.

How about combining them all together?

1. FENTRY/FEXIT on a BPF subprogram.
2. A tailcall runs in the BPF subprogram.
3. The tailcall calls the subprogram's caller.

As a result, a tailcall infinite loop comes up. And the loop would halt
the machine.

As we know, in tail call context, the tail_call_cnt propagates by stack
and rax register between BPF subprograms. So do in trampolines.

Fix 'tr' dereferencing bug when CONFIG_BPF_JIT is turned off.

When CONFIG_BPF_JIT is turned off, 'bpf_trampoline_get()' returns NULL,
which is same as the cases when CONFIG_BPF_JIT is turned on.

syzbot reported a data race splat between two processes trying to
update the same BPF map value via syscall on different CPUs:

The bpf_long_memcpy is used with 8-byte aligned pointers, power-of-8 size
and forced to use long read/writes to try to atomically copy long counters.
It is best-effort only and no barriers are here since it _will_ race with
concurrent updates from BPF programs. The bpf_long_memcpy() is called from
bpf(2) syscall. Marco suggested that the best way to make this known to
KCSAN would be to use data_race() annotation.

<title>bpf: Consider non-owning refs to refcounted nodes RCU protected</title>

<id>0816b8c6bf7fc87cec4273dc199e8f0764b9e7b1</id>
<content type='text'>
An earlier patch in the series ensures that the underlying memory of
nodes with bpf_refcount - which can have multiple owners - is not reused
until RCU grace period has elapsed. This prevents
use-after-free with non-owning references that may point to
recently-freed memory. While RCU read lock is held, it's safe to
dereference such a non-owning ref, as by definition RCU GP couldn't have
elapsed and therefore underlying memory couldn't have been reused.

From the perspective of verifier "trustedness" non-owning refs to
refcounted nodes are now trusted only in RCU CS and therefore should no
longer pass is_trusted_reg, but rather is_rcu_reg. Let's mark them
MEM_RCU in order to reflect this new state.

Subsystems that want to implement a struct bpf_struct_ops structure to
enable struct_ops maps must currently reverse engineer how the structure
works. Given that this is meant to be a way for subsystem maintainers to

<title>bpf: Add support for bpf_get_func_ip helper for uprobe program</title>

<id>a3c485a5d8d47af5d2d1a0e5c3b7a1ed223669f9</id>
<content type='text'>
Adding support for bpf_get_func_ip helper for uprobe program to return
probed address for both uprobe and return uprobe.

We discussed this in [1] and agreed that uprobe can have special use
of bpf_get_func_ip helper that differs from kprobe.

The kprobe bpf_get_func_ip returns:
  - address of the function if probe is attach on function entry
    for both kprobe and return kprobe
  - 0 if the probe is not attach on function entry

The uprobe bpf_get_func_ip returns:
  - address of the probe for both uprobe and return uprobe

The reason for this semantic change is that kernel can't really tell
if the probe user space address is function entry.

The uprobe program is actually kprobe type program attached as uprobe.
One of the consequences of this design is that uprobes do not have its
own set of helpers, but share them with kprobes.

As we need different functionality for bpf_get_func_ip helper for uprobe,
I'm adding the bool value to the bpf_trace_run_ctx, so the helper can
detect that it's executed in uprobe context and call specific code.

The is_uprobe bool is set as true in bpf_prog_run_array_sleepable, which
is currently used only for executing bpf programs in uprobe.

Renaming bpf_prog_run_array_sleepable to bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe
to address that it's only used for uprobes and that it sets the
run_ctx.is_uprobe as suggested by Yafang Shao.

Adding support for bpf_get_func_ip helper for uprobe program to return
probed address for both uprobe and return uprobe.

We discussed this in [1] and agreed that uprobe can have special use
of bpf_get_func_ip helper that differs from kprobe.

The kprobe bpf_get_func_ip returns:
  - address of the function if probe is attach on function entry
    for both kprobe and return kprobe
  - 0 if the probe is not attach on function entry

The uprobe bpf_get_func_ip returns:
  - address of the probe for both uprobe and return uprobe

The reason for this semantic change is that kernel can't really tell
if the probe user space address is function entry.

The uprobe program is actually kprobe type program attached as uprobe.
One of the consequences of this design is that uprobes do not have its
own set of helpers, but share them with kprobes.

As we need different functionality for bpf_get_func_ip helper for uprobe,
I'm adding the bool value to the bpf_trace_run_ctx, so the helper can
detect that it's executed in uprobe context and call specific code.

The is_uprobe bool is set as true in bpf_prog_run_array_sleepable, which
is currently used only for executing bpf programs in uprobe.

Renaming bpf_prog_run_array_sleepable to bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe
to address that it's only used for uprobes and that it sets the
run_ctx.is_uprobe as suggested by Yafang Shao.

<title>bpf: fix bpf_probe_read_kernel prototype mismatch</title>

bpf_probe_read_kernel() has a __weak definition in core.c and another
definition with an incompatible prototype in kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c,
when CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS is enabled.

Since the two are incompatible, there cannot be a shared declaration in
a header file, but the lack of a prototype causes a W=1 warning:

kernel/bpf/core.c:1638:12: error: no previous prototype for 'bpf_probe_read_kernel' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

On 32-bit architectures, the local prototype

u64 __weak bpf_probe_read_kernel(void *dst, u32 size, const void *unsafe_ptr)

passes arguments in other registers as the one in bpf_trace.c

BPF_CALL_3(bpf_probe_read_kernel, void *, dst, u32, size,
            const void *, unsafe_ptr)

which uses 64-bit arguments in pairs of registers.

As both versions of the function are fairly simple and only really
differ in one line, just move them into a header file as an inline
function that does not add any overhead for the bpf_trace.c callers
and actually avoids a function call for the other one.

<title>bpf: Add 'owner' field to bpf_{list,rb}_node</title>

As described by Kumar in [0], in shared ownership scenarios it is
necessary to do runtime tracking of {rb,list} node ownership - and
synchronize updates using this ownership information - in order to
prevent races. This patch adds an 'owner' field to struct bpf_list_node
and bpf_rb_node to implement such runtime tracking.

The owner field is a void * that describes the ownership state of a
node. It can have the following values:

  NULL           - the node is not owned by any data structure
  BPF_PTR_POISON - the node is in the process of being added to a data
                   structure
  ptr_to_root    - the pointee is a data structure 'root'
                   (bpf_rb_root / bpf_list_head) which owns this node

The field is initially NULL (set by bpf_obj_init_field default behavior)
and transitions states in the following sequence:

  Insertion: NULL -&gt; BPF_PTR_POISON -&gt; ptr_to_root
  Removal:   ptr_to_root -&gt; NULL

Before a node has been successfully inserted, it is not protected by any
root's lock, and therefore two programs can attempt to add the same node
to different roots simultaneously. For this reason the intermediate
BPF_PTR_POISON state is necessary. For removal, the node is protected
by some root's lock so this intermediate hop isn't necessary.

Note that bpf_list_pop_{front,back} helpers don't need to check owner
before removing as the node-to-be-removed is not passed in as input and
is instead taken directly from the list. Do the check anyways and
WARN_ON_ONCE in this unexpected scenario.

Selftest changes in this patch are entirely mechanical: some BTF
tests have hardcoded struct sizes for structs that contain
bpf_{list,rb}_node fields, those were adjusted to account for the new
sizes. Selftest additions to validate the owner field are added in a
further patch in the series.

<title>bpf: Introduce internal definitions for UAPI-opaque bpf_{rb,list}_node</title>

Structs bpf_rb_node and bpf_list_node are opaquely defined in
uapi/linux/bpf.h, as BPF program writers are not expected to touch their
fields - nor does the verifier allow them to do so.

Currently these structs are simple wrappers around structs rb_node and
list_head and linked_list / rbtree implementation just casts and passes
to library functions for those data structures. Later patches in this
series, though, will add an "owner" field to bpf_{rb,list}_node, such
that they're not just wrapping an underlying node type. Moreover, the
bpf linked_list and rbtree implementations will deal with these owner
pointers directly in a few different places.

To avoid having to do

  void *owner = (void*)bpf_list_node + sizeof(struct list_head)

with opaque UAPI node types, add bpf_{list,rb}_node_kern struct
definitions to internal headers and modify linked_list and rbtree to use
the internal types where appropriate.
