<title>bpf: Fix a verifier issue when assigning 32bit reg states to 64bit ones</title>

<content type='text'>
With the latest trunk llvm (llvm 11), I hit a verifier issue for
test_prog subtest test_verif_scale1.

The following simplified example illustrate the issue:
    w9 = 0  /* R9_w=inv0 */
    r8 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 80)  /* __sk_buff-&gt;data_end */
    r7 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 76)  /* __sk_buff-&gt;data */
    ......
    w2 = w9 /* R2_w=inv0 */
    r6 = r7 /* R6_w=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) */
    r6 += r2 /* R6_w=inv(id=0) */
    r3 = r6 /* R3_w=inv(id=0) */
    r3 += 14 /* R3_w=inv(id=0) */
    if r3 &gt; r8 goto end
    r5 = *(u32 *)(r6 + 0) /* R6_w=inv(id=0) */
       &lt;== error here: R6 invalid mem access 'inv'
    ...
  end:

In real test_verif_scale1 code, "w9 = 0" and "w2 = w9" are in
different basic blocks.

In the above, after "r6 += r2", r6 becomes a scalar, which eventually
caused the memory access error. The correct register state should be
a pkt pointer.

The inprecise register state starts at "w2 = w9".
The 32bit register w9 is 0, in __reg_assign_32_into_64(),
the 64bit reg-&gt;smax_value is assigned to be U32_MAX.
The 64bit reg-&gt;smin_value is 0 and the 64bit register
itself remains constant based on reg-&gt;var_off.

In adjust_ptr_min_max_vals(), the verifier checks for a known constant,
smin_val must be equal to smax_val. Since they are not equal,
the verifier decides r6 is a unknown scalar, which caused later failure.

The llvm10 does not have this issue as it generates different code:
    w9 = 0  /* R9_w=inv0 */
    r8 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 80)  /* __sk_buff-&gt;data_end */
    r7 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 76)  /* __sk_buff-&gt;data */
    ......
    r6 = r7 /* R6_w=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) */
    r6 += r9 /* R6_w=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) */
    r3 = r6 /* R3_w=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) */
    r3 += 14 /* R3_w=pkt(id=0,off=14,r=0,imm=0) */
    if r3 &gt; r8 goto end
    ...

To fix the above issue, we can include zero in the test condition for
assigning the s32_max_value and s32_min_value to their 64-bit equivalents
smax_value and smin_value.

Further, fix the condition to avoid doing zero extension bounds checks
when s32_min_value &lt;= 0. This could allow for the case where bounds
32-bit bounds (-1,1) get incorrectly translated to (0,1) 64-bit bounds.
When in-fact the -1 min value needs to force U32_MAX bound.

Currently, tracing/fentry and tracing/fexit prog
return values are not enforced. In trampoline codes,
the fentry/fexit prog return values are ignored.
Let us enforce it to be 0 to avoid confusion and
allows potential future extension.

This patch also explicitly added return value
checking for tracing/raw_tp, tracing/fmod_ret,
and freplace programs such that these program
return values can be anything. The purpose are
two folds:
 1. to make it explicit about return value expectations
    for these programs in verifier.
 2. for tracing prog_type, if a future attach type
    is added, the default is -ENOTSUPP which will
    enforce to specify return value ranges explicitly.

<title>bpf: Propagate expected_attach_type when verifying freplace programs</title>

<content type='text'>
For some program types, the verifier relies on the expected_attach_type of
the program being verified in the verification process. However, for
freplace programs, the attach type was not propagated along with the
verifier ops, so the expected_attach_type would always be zero for freplace
programs.

This in turn caused the verifier to sometimes make the wrong call for
freplace programs. For all existing uses of expected_attach_type for this
purpose, the result of this was only false negatives (i.e., freplace
functions would be rejected by the verifier even though they were valid
programs for the target they were replacing). However, should a false
positive be introduced, this can lead to out-of-bounds accesses and/or
crashes.

The fix introduced in this patch is to propagate the expected_attach_type
to the freplace program during verification, and reset it after that is
done.

crashes.

The fix introduced in this patch is to propagate the expected_attach_type
to the freplace program during verification, and reset it after that is
done.

<title>bpf: Fix handling of XADD on BTF memory</title>

check_xadd() can cause check_ptr_to_btf_access() to be executed with
atype==BPF_READ and value_regno==-1 (meaning "just check whether the access
is okay, don't tell me what type it will result in").
Handle that case properly and skip writing type information, instead of
indexing into the registers at index -1 and writing into out-of-bounds
memory.

Note that at least at the moment, you can't actually write through a BTF
pointer, so check_xadd() will reject the program after calling
check_ptr_to_btf_access with atype==BPF_WRITE; but that's after the
verifier has already corrupted memory.

This patch assumes that BTF pointers are not available in unprivileged
programs.

<title>bpf: Forbid XADD on spilled pointers for unprivileged users</title>

When check_xadd() verifies an XADD operation on a pointer to a stack slot
containing a spilled pointer, check_stack_read() verifies that the read,
which is part of XADD, is valid. However, since the placeholder value -1 is
passed as `value_regno`, check_stack_read() can only return a binary
decision and can't return the type of the value that was read. The intent
here is to verify whether the value read from the stack slot may be used as
a SCALAR_VALUE; but since check_stack_read() doesn't check the type, and
the type information is lost when check_stack_read() returns, this is not
enforced, and a malicious user can abuse XADD to leak spilled kernel
pointers.

Fix it by letting check_stack_read() verify that the value is usable as a
SCALAR_VALUE if no type information is passed to the caller.

To be able to use __is_pointer_value() in check_stack_read(), move it up.

Fix up the expected unprivileged error message for a BPF selftest that,
until now, assumed that unprivileged users can use XADD on stack-spilled
pointers. This also gives us a test for the behavior introduced in this
patch for free.

In theory, this could also be fixed by forbidding XADD on stack spills
entirely, since XADD is a locked operation (for operations on memory with
concurrency) and there can't be any concurrency on the BPF stack; but
Alexei has said that he wants to keep XADD on stack slots working to avoid
changes to the test suite [1].

The following BPF program demonstrates how to leak a BPF map pointer as an
unprivileged user using this bug:

    // r7 = map_pointer
    BPF_LD_MAP_FD(BPF_REG_7, small_map),
    // r8 = launder(map_pointer)
    BPF_STX_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_FP, BPF_REG_7, -8),
    BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_1, 0),
    ((struct bpf_insn) {
      .code  = BPF_STX | BPF_DW | BPF_XADD,
      .dst_reg = BPF_REG_FP,
      .src_reg = BPF_REG_1,
      .off = -8
    }),
    BPF_LDX_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_8, BPF_REG_FP, -8),

    // store r8 into map
    BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_ARG1, BPF_REG_7),
    BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_ARG2, BPF_REG_FP),
    BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_ARG2, -4),
    BPF_ST_MEM(BPF_W, BPF_REG_ARG2, 0, 0),
    BPF_EMIT_CALL(BPF_FUNC_map_lookup_elem),
    BPF_JMP_IMM(BPF_JNE, BPF_REG_0, 0, 1),
    BPF_EXIT_INSN(),
    BPF_STX_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_0, BPF_REG_8, 0),

    BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_0, 0),
    BPF_EXIT_INSN()

Further refine return values range in do_refine_retval_range by noting
these are int return types (We will assume here that int is a 32-bit type).

Two reasons to pull this out of original patch. First it makes the original
fix impossible to backport. And second I've not seen this as being problematic
in practice unlike the other case.
