<title>bpf, lru: avoid messing with eviction heuristics upon syscall lookup</title>

<id>50b045a8c0ccf44f76640ac3eea8d80ca53979a3</id>
<content type='text'>
One of the biggest issues we face right now with picking LRU map over
regular hash table is that a map walk out of user space, for example,
to just dump the existing entries or to remove certain ones, will
completely mess up LRU eviction heuristics and wrong entries such
as just created ones will get evicted instead. The reason for this
is that we mark an entry as "in use" via bpf_lru_node_set_ref() from
system call lookup side as well. Thus upon walk, all entries are
being marked, so information of actual least recently used ones
are "lost".

In case of Cilium where it can be used (besides others) as a BPF
based connection tracker, this current behavior causes disruption
upon control plane changes that need to walk the map from user space
to evict certain entries. Discussion result from bpfconf [0] was that
we should simply just remove marking from system call side as no
good use case could be found where it's actually needed there.
Therefore this patch removes marking for regular LRU and per-CPU
flavor. If there ever should be a need in future, the behavior could
be selected via map creation flag, but due to mentioned reason we
avoid this here.

<title>bpf: add program side {rd, wr}only support for maps</title>

<content type='text'>
This work adds two new map creation flags BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG
and BPF_F_WRONLY_PROG in order to allow for read-only or
write-only BPF maps from a BPF program side.

Today we have BPF_F_RDONLY and BPF_F_WRONLY, but this only
applies to system call side, meaning the BPF program has full
read/write access to the map as usual while bpf(2) calls with
map fd can either only read or write into the map depending
on the flags. BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG and BPF_F_WRONLY_PROG allows
for the exact opposite such that verifier is going to reject
program loads if write into a read-only map or a read into a
write-only map is detected. For read-only map case also some
helpers are forbidden for programs that would alter the map
state such as map deletion, update, etc. As opposed to the two
BPF_F_RDONLY / BPF_F_WRONLY flags, BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG as well
as BPF_F_WRONLY_PROG really do correspond to the map lifetime.

We've enabled this generic map extension to various non-special
maps holding normal user data: array, hash, lru, lpm, local
storage, queue and stack. Further generic map types could be
followed up in future depending on use-case. Main use case
here is to forbid writes into .rodata map values from verifier
side.

<title>bpf: introduce BPF_F_LOCK flag</title>

Introduce BPF_F_LOCK flag for map_lookup and map_update syscall commands
and for map_update() helper function.
In all these cases take a lock of existing element (which was provided
in BTF description) before copying (in or out) the rest of map value.

Implementation details that are part of uapi:

Array:
The array map takes the element lock for lookup/update.

Hash:
hash map also takes the lock for lookup/update and tries to avoid the bucket lock.
If old element exists it takes the element lock and updates the element in place.
If element doesn't exist it allocates new one and inserts into hash table
while holding the bucket lock.
In rare case the hashmap has to take both the bucket lock and the element lock
to update old value in place.

Cgroup local storage:
It is similar to array. update in place and lookup are done with lock taken.

<title>bpf: introduce bpf_spin_lock</title>

<id>d83525ca62cf8ebe3271d14c36fb900c294274a2</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce 'struct bpf_spin_lock' and bpf_spin_lock/unlock() helpers to let
bpf program serialize access to other variables.

Example:
struct hash_elem {
    int cnt;
    struct bpf_spin_lock lock;
};
struct hash_elem * val = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&amp;hash_map, &amp;key);
if (val) {
    bpf_spin_lock(&amp;val-&gt;lock);
    val-&gt;cnt++;
    bpf_spin_unlock(&amp;val-&gt;lock);
}

Restrictions and safety checks:
- bpf_spin_lock is only allowed inside HASH and ARRAY maps.
- BTF description of the map is mandatory for safety analysis.
- bpf program can take one bpf_spin_lock at a time, since two or more can
  cause dead locks.
- only one 'struct bpf_spin_lock' is allowed per map element.
  It drastically simplifies implementation yet allows bpf program to use
  any number of bpf_spin_locks.
- when bpf_spin_lock is taken the calls (either bpf2bpf or helpers) are not allowed.
- bpf program must bpf_spin_unlock() before return.
- bpf program can access 'struct bpf_spin_lock' only via
  bpf_spin_lock()/bpf_spin_unlock() helpers.
- load/store into 'struct bpf_spin_lock lock;' field is not allowed.
- to use bpf_spin_lock() helper the BTF description of map value must be
  a struct and have 'struct bpf_spin_lock anyname;' field at the top level.
  Nested lock inside another struct is not allowed.
- syscall map_lookup doesn't copy bpf_spin_lock field to user space.
- syscall map_update and program map_update do not update bpf_spin_lock field.
- bpf_spin_lock cannot be on the stack or inside networking packet.
  bpf_spin_lock can only be inside HASH or ARRAY map value.
- bpf_spin_lock is available to root only and to all program types.
- bpf_spin_lock is not allowed in inner maps of map-in-map.
- ld_abs is not allowed inside spin_lock-ed region.
- tracing progs and socket filter progs cannot use bpf_spin_lock due to
  insufficient preemption checks

Implementation details:
- cgroup-bpf class of programs can nest with xdp/tc programs.
  Hence bpf_spin_lock is equivalent to spin_lock_irqsave.
  Other solutions to avoid nested bpf_spin_lock are possible.
  Like making sure that all networking progs run with softirq disabled.
  spin_lock_irqsave is the simplest and doesn't add overhead to the
  programs that don't use it.
- arch_spinlock_t is used when its implemented as queued_spin_lock
- archs can force their own arch_spinlock_t
- on architectures where queued_spin_lock is not available and
  sizeof(arch_spinlock_t) != sizeof(__u32) trivial lock is used.
- presence of bpf_spin_lock inside map value could have been indicated via
  extra flag during map_create, but specifying it via BTF is cleaner.
  It provides introspection for map key/value and reduces user mistakes.

Next steps:
- allow bpf_spin_lock in other map types (like cgroup local storage)
- introduce BPF_F_LOCK flag for bpf_map_update() syscall and helper
  to request kernel to grab bpf_spin_lock before rewriting the value.
  That will serialize access to map elements.

It has been explained that is a false positive here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/25/756
Recap:
- stackmap uses pcpu_freelist
- The lock in pcpu_freelist is a percpu lock
- stackmap is only used by tracing bpf_prog
- A tracing bpf_prog cannot be run if another bpf_prog
  has already been running (ensured by the percpu bpf_prog_active counter).

Eric pointed out that this lockdep splats stops other
legit lockdep splats in selftests/bpf/test_progs.c.

Fix this by calling local_irq_save/restore for stackmap.

Another false positive had also been worked around by calling
local_irq_save in commit 89ad2fa3f043 ("bpf: fix lockdep splat").
That commit added unnecessary irq_save/restore to fast path of
bpf hash map. irqs are already disabled at that point, since htab
is holding per bucket spin_lock with irqsave.

Let's reduce overhead for htab by introducing __pcpu_freelist_push/pop
function w/o irqsave and convert pcpu_freelist_push/pop to irqsave
to be used elsewhere (right now only in stackmap).
It stops lockdep false positive in stackmap with a bit of acceptable overhead.

Fixes: 557c0c6e7df8 ("bpf: convert stackmap to pre-allocation")

It has been explained that is a false positive here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/25/756
Recap:
- stackmap uses pcpu_freelist
- The lock in pcpu_freelist is a percpu lock
- stackmap is only used by tracing bpf_prog
- A tracing bpf_prog cannot be run if another bpf_prog
  has already been running (ensured by the percpu bpf_prog_active counter).

Eric pointed out that this lockdep splats stops other
legit lockdep splats in selftests/bpf/test_progs.c.

Fix this by calling local_irq_save/restore for stackmap.

Another false positive had also been worked around by calling
local_irq_save in commit 89ad2fa3f043 ("bpf: fix lockdep splat").
That commit added unnecessary irq_save/restore to fast path of
bpf hash map. irqs are already disabled at that point, since htab
is holding per bucket spin_lock with irqsave.

Let's reduce overhead for htab by introducing __pcpu_freelist_push/pop
function w/o irqsave and convert pcpu_freelist_push/pop to irqsave
to be used elsewhere (right now only in stackmap).
It stops lockdep false positive in stackmap with a bit of acceptable overhead.

Add a new flag BPF_F_ZERO_SEED, which forces a hash map
to initialize the seed to zero. This is useful when doing
performance analysis both on individual BPF programs, as
well as the kernel's hash table implementation.

<title>bpf: add bpffs pretty print for percpu arraymap/hash/lru_hash</title>

<id>c7b27c37af3da5a63f32b0bc99569e3069e4d9c1</id>
<content type='text'>
Added bpffs pretty print for percpu arraymap, percpu hashmap
and percpu lru hashmap.

For each map &lt;key, value&gt; pair, the format is:
   &lt;key_value&gt;: {
	cpu0: &lt;value_on_cpu0&gt;
	cpu1: &lt;value_on_cpu1&gt;
	...
	cpun: &lt;value_on_cpun&gt;
   }

For example, on my VM, there are 4 cpus, and
for test_btf test in the next patch:
   cat /sys/fs/bpf/pprint_test_percpu_hash

You may get:
   ...
   43602: {
	cpu0: {43602,0,-43602,0x3,0xaa52,0x3,{43602|[82,170,0,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_TWO}
	cpu1: {43602,0,-43602,0x3,0xaa52,0x3,{43602|[82,170,0,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_TWO}
	cpu2: {43602,0,-43602,0x3,0xaa52,0x3,{43602|[82,170,0,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_TWO}
	cpu3: {43602,0,-43602,0x3,0xaa52,0x3,{43602|[82,170,0,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_TWO}
   }
   72847: {
	cpu0: {72847,0,-72847,0x3,0x11c8f,0x3,{72847|[143,28,1,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_THREE}
	cpu1: {72847,0,-72847,0x3,0x11c8f,0x3,{72847|[143,28,1,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_THREE}
	cpu2: {72847,0,-72847,0x3,0x11c8f,0x3,{72847|[143,28,1,0,0,0,0,0]},ENUM_THREE}

All BPF hash and LRU maps currently have a known and global seed
we feed into jhash() which is 0. This is suboptimal, thus fix it
by generating a random seed upon hashtab setup time which we can
later on feed into jhash() on lookup, update and deletions.
