[ Upstream commit 6764e767f4af1e35f87f3497e1182d945de37f93 ]
__bpf_prog_enter_recur() assigns bpf_tramp_run_ctx::saved_run_ctx before
performing the recursion check which means in case of a recursion
__bpf_prog_exit_recur() uses the previously set bpf_tramp_run_ctx::saved_run_ctx
value.
__bpf_prog_enter_sleepable_recur() assigns bpf_tramp_run_ctx::saved_run_ctx
after the recursion check which means in case of a recursion
__bpf_prog_exit_sleepable_recur() uses an uninitialized value. This does not
look right. If I read the entry trampoline code right, then bpf_tramp_run_ctx
isn't initialized upfront.
Align __bpf_prog_enter_sleepable_recur() with __bpf_prog_enter_recur() and
set bpf_tramp_run_ctx::saved_run_ctx before the recursion check is made.
Remove the assignment of saved_run_ctx in kern_sys_bpf() since it happens
a few cycles later.

[ Upstream commit 7645629f7dc88cd777f98970134bf1a54c8d77e3 ]
If __bpf_prog_enter_sleepable_recur() detects recursion then it returns
0 without undoing rcu_read_lock_trace(), migrate_disable() or
decrementing the recursion counter. This is fine in the JIT case because
the JIT code will jump in the 0 case to the end and invoke the matching
exit trampoline (__bpf_prog_exit_sleepable_recur()).
This is not the case in kern_sys_bpf() which returns directly to the
caller with an error code.
Add __bpf_prog_exit_sleepable_recur() as clean up in the recursion case.

[ Upstream commit 271de525e1d7f564e88a9d212c50998b49a54476 ]
The commit 64696c40d03c ("bpf: Add __bpf_prog_{enter,exit}_struct_ops for struct_ops trampoline")
removed prog->active check for struct_ops prog. The bpf_lsm
and bpf_iter is also using trampoline. Like struct_ops, the bpf_lsm
and bpf_iter have fixed hooks for the prog to attach. The
kernel does not call the same hook in a recursive way.
This patch also removes the prog->active check for
bpf_lsm and bpf_iter.
A later patch has a test to reproduce the recursion issue
for a sleepable bpf_lsm program.
This patch appends the '_recur' naming to the existing
enter and exit functions that track the prog->active counter.
New __bpf_prog_{enter,exit}[_sleepable] function are
added to skip the prog->active tracking. The '_struct_ops'
version is also removed.
It also moves the decision on picking the enter and exit function to
the new bpf_trampoline_{enter,exit}(). It returns the '_recur' ones
for all tracing progs to use. For bpf_lsm, bpf_iter,
struct_ops (no prog->active tracking after 64696c40d03c), and
bpf_lsm_cgroup (no prog->active tracking after 69fd337a975c7),
it will return the functions that don't track the prog->active.

commit d75e30dddf73449bc2d10bb8e2f1a2c446bc67a2 upstream.
After we converted the capabilities of our networking-bpf program from
cap_sys_admin to cap_net_admin+cap_bpf, our networking-bpf program
failed to start. Because it failed the bpf verifier, and the error log
is "R3 pointer comparison prohibited".
A simple reproducer as follows,
SEC("cls-ingress")
int ingress(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
struct iphdr *iph = (void *)(long)skb->data + sizeof(struct ethhdr);
if ((long)(iph + 1) > (long)skb->data_end)
return TC_ACT_STOLEN;
return TC_ACT_OK;
}
Per discussion with Yonghong and Alexei [1], comparison of two packet
pointers is not a pointer leak. This patch fixes it.
Our local kernel is 6.1.y and we expect this fix to be backported to
6.1.y, so stable is CCed.

We are utilizing BPF LSM to monitor BPF operations within our container

case BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN:
bpf_printk("raw_tracepoint is %s", attr->raw_tracepoint.name);
break;
default:
break;
}
return 0;
}
The reason is that when accessing a field in a union, such as bpf_attr,
if the field is located within a nested struct that is not the first
member of the union, it can result in incorrect field verification.
union bpf_attr {
struct {
__u32 map_type; <<<< Actually it will find that field.
__u32 key_size;
__u32 value_size;
...
};
...
struct {
__u64 name; <<<< We want to verify this field.
__u32 prog_fd;
} raw_tracepoint;
};
Considering the potential deep nesting levels, finding a perfect
solution to address this issue has proven challenging. Therefore, I
propose a solution where we simply skip the verification process if the
field in question is located within a union.

The root cause is the same as commit 436901649731 ("bpf: cpumap: Fix memory
leak in cpu_map_update_elem"). The kthread is stopped prematurely by
kthread_stop() in cpu_map_kthread_stop(), and kthread() doesn't call
cpu_map_kthread_run() at all but XDP program has already queued some
frames or skbs into ptr_ring. So when __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() checks
the ptr_ring, it will find it was not emptied and report a warning.
An alternative fix is to use __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() to drop these
pending frames or skbs when kthread_stop() returns -EINTR, but it may
confuse the user, because these frames or skbs have been handled
correctly by XDP program. So instead of dropping these frames or skbs,
just make sure the per-cpu kthread is running before
__cpu_map_entry_alloc() returns.
After apply the fix, the error handle for kthread_stop() will be
unnecessary because it will always return 0, so just remove it.

The reason for the warning is twofold. One is due to the kthread
cpu_map_kthread_run() is stopped prematurely. Another one is
__cpu_map_ring_cleanup() doesn't handle skb mode and treats skbs in
ptr_ring as XDP frames.
Prematurely-stopped kthread will be fixed by the preceding patch and
ptr_ring will be empty when __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() is called. But
as the comments in __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() said, handling and freeing
skbs in ptr_ring as well to "catch any broken behaviour gracefully".

[ Upstream commit f63181b6ae79fd3b034cde641db774268c2c3acf ] Setting reg->precise to true in current state is not necessary from correctness standpoint, but it does pessimise the whole precision (or rather "imprecision", because that's what we want to keep as much as possible) tracking. Why is somewhat subtle and my best attempt to explain this is recorded in an extensive comment for __mark_chain_precise() function. Some more careful thinking and code reading is probably required still to grok this completely, unfortunately. Whiteboarding and a bunch of extra handwaiving in person would be even more helpful, but is deemed impractical in Git commit. Next patch pushes this imprecision property even further, building on top of the insights described in this patch. End results are pretty nice, we get reduction in number of total instructions and states verified due to a better states reuse, as some of the states are now more generic and permissive due to less unnecessary precise=true requirements.

[ Upstream commit be2ef8161572ec1973124ebc50f56dafc2925e07 ] Stop forcing precise=true for SCALAR registers when BPF program has any subprograms. Current restriction means that any BPF program, as soon as it uses subprograms, will end up not getting any of the precision tracking benefits in reduction of number of verified states. This patch keeps the fallback mark_all_scalars_precise() behavior if precise marking has to cross function frames. E.g., if subprogram requires R1 (first input arg) to be marked precise, ideally we'd need to backtrack to the parent function and keep marking R1 and its dependencies as precise. But right now we give up and force all the SCALARs in any of the current and parent states to be forced to precise=true. We can lift that restriction in the future. But this patch fixes two issues identified when trying to enable precision tracking for subprogs. First, prevent "escaping" from top-most state in a global subprog. While with entry-level BPF program we never end up requesting precision for R1-R5 registers, because R2-R5 are not initialized (and so not readable in correct BPF program), and R1 is PTR_TO_CTX, not SCALAR, and so is implicitly precise. With global subprogs, though, it's different, as global subprog a) can have up to 5 SCALAR input arguments, which might get marked as precise=true and b) it is validated in isolation from its main entry BPF program. b) means that we can end up exhausting parent state chain and still not mark all registers in reg_mask as precise, which would lead to verifier bug warning. To handle that, we need to consider two cases. First, if the very first state is not immediately "checkpointed" (i.e., stored in state lookup hashtable), it will get correct first_insn_idx and last_insn_idx instruction set during state checkpointing. As such, this case is already handled and __mark_chain_precision() already handles that by just doing nothing when we reach to the very first parent state. st->parent will be NULL and we'll just stop. Perhaps some extra check for reg_mask and stack_mask is due here, but this patch doesn't address that issue. More problematic second case is when global function's initial state is immediately checkpointed before we manage to process the very first instruction. This is happening because when there is a call to global subprog from the main program the very first subprog's instruction is marked as pruning point, so before we manage to process first instruction we have to check and checkpoint state. This patch adds a special handling for such "empty" state, which is identified by having st->last_insn_idx set to -1. In such case, we check that we are indeed validating global subprog, and with some sanity checking we mark input args as precise if requested. Note that we also initialize state->first_insn_idx with correct start insn_idx offset. For main program zero is correct value, but for any subprog it's quite confusing to not have first_insn_idx set. This doesn't have any functional impact, but helps with debugging and state printing. We also explicitly initialize state->last_insns_idx instead of relying on is_state_visited() to do this with env->prev_insns_idx, which will be -1 on the very first instruction. This concludes necessary changes to handle specifically global subprog's precision tracking. Second identified problem was missed handling of BPF helper functions that call into subprogs (e.g., bpf_loop and few others). From precision tracking and backtracking logic's standpoint those are effectively calls into subprogs and should be called as BPF_PSEUDO_CALL calls. This patch takes the least intrusive way and just checks against a short list of current BPF helpers that do call subprogs, encapsulated in is_callback_calling_function() function. But to prevent accidentally forgetting to add new BPF helpers to this "list", we also do a sanity check in __check_func_call, which has to be called for each such special BPF helper, to validate that BPF helper is indeed recognized as callback-calling one. This should catch any missed checks in the future. Adding some special flags to be added in function proto definitions seemed like an overkill in this case. With the above changes, it's possible to remove forceful setting of reg->precise to true in __mark_reg_unknown, which turns on precision tracking both inside subprogs and entry progs that have subprogs. No warnings or errors were detected across all the selftests, but also when validating with veristat against internal Meta BPF objects and Cilium objects. Further, in some BPF programs there are noticeable reduction in number of states and instructions validated due to more effective precision tracking, especially benefiting syncookie test. $ ./veristat -C -e file,prog,insns,states ~/baseline-results.csv ~/subprog-precise-results.csv | grep -v '+0' File Program Total insns (A) Total insns (B) Total insns (DIFF) Total states (A) Total states (B) Total states (DIFF) ---------------------------------------- -------------------------- --------------- --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- ------------------- pyperf600_bpf_loop.bpf.linked1.o on_event 3966 3678 -288 (-7.26%) 306 276 -30 (-9.80%) pyperf_global.bpf.linked1.o on_event 7563 7530 -33 (-0.44%) 520 517 -3 (-0.58%) pyperf_subprogs.bpf.linked1.o on_event 36358 36934 +576 (+1.58%) 2499 2531 +32 (+1.28%) setget_sockopt.bpf.linked1.o skops_sockopt 3965 4038 +73 (+1.84%) 343 347 +4 (+1.17%) test_cls_redirect_subprogs.bpf.linked1.o cls_redirect 64965 64901 -64 (-0.10%) 4619 4612 -7 (-0.15%) test_misc_tcp_hdr_options.bpf.linked1.o misc_estab 1491 1307 -184 (-12.34%) 110 100 -10 (-9.09%) test_pkt_access.bpf.linked1.o test_pkt_access 354 349 -5 (-1.41%) 25 24 -1 (-4.00%) test_sock_fields.bpf.linked1.o egress_read_sock_fields 435 375 -60 (-13.79%) 22 20 -2 (-9.09%) test_sysctl_loop2.bpf.linked1.o sysctl_tcp_mem 1508 1501 -7 (-0.46%) 29 28 -1 (-3.45%) test_tc_dtime.bpf.linked1.o egress_fwdns_prio100 468 435 -33 (-7.05%) 45 41 -4 (-8.89%) test_tc_dtime.bpf.linked1.o ingress_fwdns_prio100 398 408 +10 (+2.51%) 42 39 -3 (-7.14%) test_tc_dtime.bpf.linked1.o ingress_fwdns_prio101 1096 842 -254 (-23.18%) 97 73 -24 (-24.74%) test_tcp_hdr_options.bpf.linked1.o estab 2758 2408 -350 (-12.69%) 208 181 -27 (-12.98%) test_urandom_usdt.bpf.linked1.o urand_read_with_sema 466 448 -18 (-3.86%) 31 28 -3 (-9.68%) test_urandom_usdt.bpf.linked1.o urand_read_without_sema 466 448 -18 (-3.86%) 31 28 -3 (-9.68%) test_urandom_usdt.bpf.linked1.o urandlib_read_with_sema 466 448 -18 (-3.86%) 31 28 -3 (-9.68%) test_urandom_usdt.bpf.linked1.o urandlib_read_without_sema 466 448 -18 (-3.86%) 31 28 -3 (-9.68%) test_xdp_noinline.bpf.linked1.o balancer_ingress_v6 4302 4294 -8 (-0.19%) 257 256 -1 (-0.39%) xdp_synproxy_kern.bpf.linked1.o syncookie_tc 583722 405757 -177965 (-30.49%) 35846 25735 -10111 (-28.21%) xdp_synproxy_kern.bpf.linked1.o syncookie_xdp 609123 479055 -130068 (-21.35%) 35452 29145 -6307 (-17.79%) ---------------------------------------- -------------------------- --------------- --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------- ------------------- Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221104163649.121784-4-andrii@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
