Partially undo commit 9facc336876f ("bpf: reject any prog that failed
read-only lock") since it caused a regression, that is, syzkaller was
able to manage to cause a panic via fault injection deep in set_memory_ro()
path by letting an allocation fail: In x86's __change_page_attr_set_clr()
it was able to change the attributes of the primary mapping but not in
the alias mapping via cpa_process_alias(), so the second, inner call
to the __change_page_attr() via __change_page_attr_set_clr() had to split
a larger page and failed in the alloc_pages() with the artifically triggered
allocation error which is then propagated down to the call site.

Thus, for set_memory_ro() this means that it returned with an error, but
from debugging a probe_kernel_write() revealed EFAULT on that memory since
the primary mapping succeeded to get changed. Therefore the subsequent
hdr-&gt;locked = 0 reset triggered the panic as it was performed on read-only
memory, so call-site assumptions were infact wrong to assume that it would
either succeed /or/ not succeed at all since there's no such rollback in
set_memory_*() calls from partial change of mappings, in other words, we're
left in a state that is "half done". A later undo via set_memory_rw() is
succeeding though due to matching permissions on that part (aka due to the
try_preserve_large_page() succeeding). While reproducing locally with
explicitly triggering this error, the initial splitting only happens on
rare occasions and in real world it would additionally need oom conditions,
but that said, it could partially fail. Therefore, it is definitely wrong
to bail out on set_memory_ro() error and reject the program with the
set_memory_*() semantics we have today. Shouldn't have gone the extra mile
since no other user in tree today infact checks for any set_memory_*()
errors, e.g. neither module_enable_ro() / module_disable_ro() for module
RO/NX handling which is mostly default these days nor kprobes core with
alloc_insn_page() / free_insn_page() as examples that could be invoked long
after bootup and original 314beb9bcabf ("x86: bpf_jit_comp: secure bpf jit
against spraying attacks") did neither when it got first introduced to BPF
so "improving" with bailing out was clearly not right when set_memory_*()
cannot handle it today.

Kees suggested that if set_memory_*() can fail, we should annotate it with
__must_check, and all callers need to deal with it gracefully given those
set_memory_*() markings aren't "advisory", but they're expected to actually
do what they say. This might be an option worth to move forward in future
but would at the same time require that set_memory_*() calls from supporting
archs are guaranteed to be "atomic" in that they provide rollback if part
of the range fails, once that happened, the transition from RW -&gt; RO could
be made more robust that way, while subsequent RO -&gt; RW transition /must/
continue guaranteeing to always succeed the undo part.

We currently lock any JITed image as read-only via bpf_jit_binary_lock_ro()
as well as the BPF image as read-only through bpf_prog_lock_ro(). In
the case any of these would fail we throw a WARN_ON_ONCE() in order to
yell loudly to the log. Perhaps, to some extend, this may be comparable
to an allocation where __GFP_NOWARN is explicitly not set.

Added via 65869a47f348 ("bpf: improve read-only handling"), this behavior
is slightly different compared to any of the other in-kernel set_memory_ro()
users who do not check the return code of set_memory_ro() and friends /at
all/ (e.g. in the case of module_enable_ro() / module_disable_ro()). Given
in BPF this is mandatory hardening step, we want to know whether there
are any issues that would leave both BPF data writable. So it happens
that syzkaller enabled fault injection and it triggered memory allocation
failure deep inside x86's change_page_attr_set_clr() which was triggered
from set_memory_ro().

Now, there are two options: i) leaving everything as is, and ii) reworking
the image locking code in order to have a final checkpoint out of the
central bpf_prog_select_runtime() which probes whether any of the calls
during prog setup weren't successful, and then bailing out with an error.
Option ii) is a better approach since this additional paranoia avoids
altogether leaving any potential W+X pages from BPF side in the system.
Therefore, lets be strict about it, and reject programs in such unlikely
occasion. While testing I noticed also that one bpf_prog_lock_ro()
call was missing on the outer dummy prog in case of calls, e.g. in the
destructor we call bpf_prog_free_deferred() on the main prog where we
try to bpf_prog_unlock_free() the program, and since we go via
bpf_prog_select_runtime() do that as well.

While testing I found that when hitting error path in bpf_prog_load()
where we jump to free_used_maps and prog contained BPF to BPF calls
that were JITed earlier, then we never clean up the bpf_prog_kallsyms_add()
done under jit_subprogs(). Add proper API to make BPF kallsyms deletion
more clear and fix that.

<title>bpf: implement bpf_get_current_cgroup_id() helper</title>

bpf has been used extensively for tracing. For example, bcc
contains an almost full set of bpf-based tools to trace kernel
and user functions/events. Most tracing tools are currently
either filtered based on pid or system-wide.

Containers have been used quite extensively in industry and
cgroup is often used together to provide resource isolation
and protection. Several processes may run inside the same
container. It is often desirable to get container-level tracing
results as well, e.g. syscall count, function count, I/O
activity, etc.

This patch implements a new helper, bpf_get_current_cgroup_id(),
which will return cgroup id based on the cgroup within which
the current task is running.

The later patch will provide an example to show that
userspace can get the same cgroup id so it could
configure a filter or policy in the bpf program based on
task cgroup id.

The helper is currently implemented for tracing. It can
be added to other program types as well when needed.

S390 bpf_jit.S is removed in net-next and had changes in 'net',
since that code isn't used any more take the removal.

TLS data structures split the TX and RX components in 'net-next',
put the new struct members from the bug fix in 'net' into the RX
part.

The 'net-next' tree had some reworking of how the ERSPAN code works in
the GRE tunneling code, overlapping with a one-line headroom
calculation fix in 'net'.

Overlapping changes in __sock_map_ctx_update_elem(), keep the bits
that read the prog members via READ_ONCE() into local variables
before using them.

The program itself which caused this had a long jump over the whole
instruction sequence where all of the inner instructions required
heavy expansions into multiple BPF instructions. Additionally, I also
had BPF hardening enabled which requires once more rewrites of all
constant values in order to blind them. Each time we rewrite insns,
bpf_adj_branches() would need to potentially adjust branch targets
which cross the patchlet boundary to accommodate for the additional
delta. Eventually that lead to the case where the target offset could
not fit into insn-&gt;off's upper 0x7fff limit anymore where then offset
wraps around becoming negative (in s16 universe), or vice versa
depending on the jump direction.

Therefore it becomes necessary to detect and reject any such occasions
in a generic way for native eBPF and cBPF to eBPF migrations. For
the latter we can simply check bounds in the bpf_convert_filter()'s
BPF_EMIT_JMP helper macro and bail out once we surpass limits. The
bpf_patch_insn_single() for native eBPF (and cBPF to eBPF in case
of subsequent hardening) is a bit more complex in that we need to
detect such truncations before hitting the bpf_prog_realloc(). Thus
the latter is split into an extra pass to probe problematic offsets
on the original program in order to fail early. With that in place
and carefully tested I no longer hit the panic and the rewrites are
rejected properly. The above example panic I've seen on bpf-next,
though the issue itself is generic in that a guard against this issue
in bpf seems more appropriate in this case.

Sockmap is currently backed by an array and enforces keys to be
four bytes. This works well for many use cases and was originally
modeled after devmap which also uses four bytes keys. However,
this has become limiting in larger use cases where a hash would
be more appropriate. For example users may want to use the 5-tuple
of the socket as the lookup key.

To support this add hash support.

bpf_event_output() is useful for offloads to add events to BPF
event rings, export it.  Note that export is placed near the stub
since tracing is optional and kernel/bpf/core.c is always going

<title>bpf: implement ld_abs/ld_ind in native bpf</title>

The main part of this work is to finally allow removal of LD_ABS
and LD_IND from the BPF core by reimplementing them through native
eBPF instead. Both LD_ABS/LD_IND were carried over from cBPF and
keeping them around in native eBPF caused way more trouble than
actually worth it. To just list some of the security issues in
the past:

  * fdfaf64e7539 ("x86: bpf_jit: support negative offsets")
  * 35607b02dbef ("sparc: bpf_jit: fix loads from negative offsets")
  * e0ee9c12157d ("x86: bpf_jit: fix two bugs in eBPF JIT compiler")
  * 07aee9439454 ("bpf, sparc: fix usage of wrong reg for load_skb_regs after call")
  * 6d59b7dbf72e ("bpf, s390x: do not reload skb pointers in non-skb context")
  * 87338c8e2cbb ("bpf, ppc64: do not reload skb pointers in non-skb context")

For programs in native eBPF, LD_ABS/LD_IND are pretty much legacy
these days due to their limitations and more efficient/flexible
alternatives that have been developed over time such as direct
packet access. LD_ABS/LD_IND only cover 1/2/4 byte loads into a
register, the load happens in host endianness and its exception
handling can yield unexpected behavior. The latter is explained
in depth in f6b1b3bf0d5f ("bpf: fix subprog verifier bypass by
div/mod by 0 exception") with similar cases of exceptions we had.
In native eBPF more recent program types will disable LD_ABS/LD_IND
altogether through may_access_skb() in verifier, and given the
limitations in terms of exception handling, it's also disabled
in programs that use BPF to BPF calls.

In terms of cBPF, the LD_ABS/LD_IND is used in networking programs
to access packet data. It is not used in seccomp-BPF but programs
that use it for socket filtering or reuseport for demuxing with
cBPF. This is mostly relevant for applications that have not yet
migrated to native eBPF.

The main complexity and source of bugs in LD_ABS/LD_IND is coming
from their implementation in the various JITs. Most of them keep
the model around from cBPF times by implementing a fastpath written
in asm. They use typically two from the BPF program hidden CPU
registers for caching the skb's headlen (skb-&gt;len - skb-&gt;data_len)
and skb-&gt;data. Throughout the JIT phase this requires to keep track
whether LD_ABS/LD_IND are used and if so, the two registers need
to be recached each time a BPF helper would change the underlying
packet data in native eBPF case. At least in eBPF case, available
CPU registers are rare and the additional exit path out of the
asm written JIT helper makes it also inflexible since not all
parts of the JITer are in control from plain C. A LD_ABS/LD_IND
implementation in eBPF therefore allows to significantly reduce
the complexity in JITs with comparable performance results for
them, e.g.:

test_bpf             tcpdump port 22             tcpdump complex
x64      - before    15 21 10                    14 19  18
         - after      7 10 10                     7 10  15
arm64    - before    40 91 92                    40 91 151
         - after     51 64 73                    51 62 113

For cBPF we now track any usage of LD_ABS/LD_IND in bpf_convert_filter()
and cache the skb's headlen and data in the cBPF prologue. The
BPF_REG_TMP gets remapped from R8 to R2 since it's mainly just
used as a local temporary variable. This allows to shrink the
image on x86_64 also for seccomp programs slightly since mapping
to %rsi is not an ereg. In callee-saved R8 and R9 we now track
skb data and headlen, respectively. For normal prologue emission
in the JITs this does not add any extra instructions since R8, R9
are pushed to stack in any case from eBPF side. cBPF uses the
convert_bpf_ld_abs() emitter which probes the fast path inline
already and falls back to bpf_skb_load_helper_{8,16,32}() helper
relying on the cached skb data and headlen as well. R8 and R9
never need to be reloaded due to bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data()
since all skb access in cBPF is read-only. Then, for the case
of native eBPF, we use the bpf_gen_ld_abs() emitter, which calls
the bpf_skb_load_helper_{8,16,32}_no_cache() helper unconditionally,
does neither cache skb data and headlen nor has an inlined fast
path. The reason for the latter is that native eBPF does not have
any extra registers available anyway, but even if there were, it
avoids any reload of skb data and headlen in the first place.
Additionally, for the negative offsets, we provide an alternative
bpf_skb_load_bytes_relative() helper in eBPF which operates
similarly as bpf_skb_load_bytes() and allows for more flexibility.
Tested myself on x64, arm64, s390x, from Sandipan on ppc64.
