pull-request: bpf-next 2018-03-31

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Add raw BPF tracepoint API in order to have a BPF program type that
   can access kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their
   raw form similar to kprobes based BPF programs. This infrastructure
   also adds a new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN command to BPF syscall which
   returns an anon-inode backed fd for the tracepoint object that allows
   for automatic detach of the BPF program resp. unregistering of the
   tracepoint probe on fd release, from Alexei.

2) Add new BPF cgroup hooks at bind() and connect() entry in order to
   allow BPF programs to reject, inspect or modify user space passed
   struct sockaddr, and as well a hook at post bind time once the port
   has been allocated. They are used in FB's container management engine
   for implementing policy, replacing fragile LD_PRELOAD wrapper
   intercepting bind() and connect() calls that only works in limited
   scenarios like glibc based apps but not for other runtimes in
   containerized applications, from Andrey.

3) BPF_F_INGRESS flag support has been added to sockmap programs for
   their redirect helper call bringing it in line with cls_bpf based
   programs. Support is added for both variants of sockmap programs,
   meaning for tx ULP hooks as well as recv skb hooks, from John.

4) Various improvements on BPF side for the nfp driver, besides others
   this work adds BPF map update and delete helper call support from
   the datapath, JITing of 32 and 64 bit XADD instructions as well as
   offload support of bpf_get_prandom_u32() call. Initial implementation
   of nfp packet cache has been tackled that optimizes memory access
   (see merge commit for further details), from Jakub and Jiong.

5) Removal of struct bpf_verifier_env argument from the print_bpf_insn()
   API has been done in order to prepare to use print_bpf_insn() soon
   out of perf tool directly. This makes the print_bpf_insn() API more
   generic and pushes the env into private data. bpftool is adjusted
   as well with the print_bpf_insn() argument removal, from Jiri.

6) Couple of cleanups and prep work for the upcoming BTF (BPF Type
   Format). The latter will reuse the current BPF verifier log as
   well, thus bpf_verifier_log() is further generalized, from Martin.

7) For bpf_getsockopt() and bpf_setsockopt() helpers, IPv4 IP_TOS read
   and write support has been added in similar fashion to existing
   IPv6 IPV6_TCLASS socket option we already have, from Nikita.

8) Fixes in recent sockmap scatterlist API usage, which did not use
   sg_init_table() for initialization thus triggering a BUG_ON() in
   scatterlist API when CONFIG_DEBUG_SG was enabled. This adds and
   uses a small helper sg_init_marker() to properly handle the affected
   cases, from Prashant.

9) Let the BPF core follow IDR code convention and therefore use the
   idr_preload() and idr_preload_end() helpers, which would also help
   idr_alloc_cyclic() under GFP_ATOMIC to better succeed under memory
   pressure, from Shaohua.

10) Last but not least, a spelling fix in an error message for the
    BPF cookie UID helper under BPF sample code, from Colin.

"Post-hooks" are hooks that are called right before returning from
sys_bind. At this time IP and port are already allocated and no further
changes to `struct sock` can happen before returning from sys_bind but
BPF program has a chance to inspect the socket and change sys_bind
result.

Specifically it can e.g. inspect what port was allocated and if it
doesn't satisfy some policy, BPF program can force sys_bind to fail and
return EPERM to user.

Another example of usage is recording the IP:port pair to some map to
use it in later calls to sys_connect. E.g. if some TCP server inside
cgroup was bound to some IP:port_n, it can be recorded to a map. And
later when some TCP client inside same cgroup is trying to connect to
127.0.0.1:port_n, BPF hook for sys_connect can override the destination
and connect application to IP:port_n instead of 127.0.0.1:port_n. That
helps forcing all applications inside a cgroup to use desired IP and not
break those applications if they e.g. use localhost to communicate
between each other.

== Implementation details ==

Post-hooks are implemented as two new attach types
`BPF_CGROUP_INET4_POST_BIND` and `BPF_CGROUP_INET6_POST_BIND` for
existing prog type `BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK`.

Separate attach types for IPv4 and IPv6 are introduced to avoid access
to IPv6 field in `struct sock` from `inet_bind()` and to IPv4 field from
`inet6_bind()` since those fields might not make sense in such cases.

== The problem ==

See description of the problem in the initial patch of this patch set.

== The solution ==

The patch provides much more reliable in-kernel solution for the 2nd
part of the problem: making outgoing connecttion from desired IP.

It adds new attach types `BPF_CGROUP_INET4_CONNECT` and
`BPF_CGROUP_INET6_CONNECT` for program type
`BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR` that can be used to override both
source and destination of a connection at connect(2) time.

Local end of connection can be bound to desired IP using newly
introduced BPF-helper `bpf_bind()`. It allows to bind to only IP though,
and doesn't support binding to port, i.e. leverages
`IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT` socket option. There are two reasons for this:
* looking for a free port is expensive and can affect performance
  significantly;
* there is no use-case for port.

As for remote end (`struct sockaddr *` passed by user), both parts of it
can be overridden, remote IP and remote port. It's useful if an
application inside cgroup wants to connect to another application inside
same cgroup or to itself, but knows nothing about IP assigned to the
cgroup.

Support is added for IPv4 and IPv6, for TCP and UDP.

IPv4 and IPv6 have separate attach types for same reason as sys_bind
hooks, i.e. to prevent reading from / writing to e.g. user_ip6 fields
when user passes sockaddr_in since it'd be out-of-bound.

== Implementation notes ==

The patch introduces new field in `struct proto`: `pre_connect` that is
a pointer to a function with same signature as `connect` but is called
before it. The reason is in some cases BPF hooks should be called way
before control is passed to `sk-&gt;sk_prot-&gt;connect`. Specifically
`inet_dgram_connect` autobinds socket before calling
`sk-&gt;sk_prot-&gt;connect` and there is no way to call `bpf_bind()` from
hooks from e.g. `ip4_datagram_connect` or `ip6_datagram_connect` since
it'd cause double-bind. On the other hand `proto.pre_connect` provides a
flexible way to add BPF hooks for connect only for necessary `proto` and
call them at desired time before `connect`. Since `bpf_bind()` is
allowed to bind only to IP and autobind in `inet_dgram_connect` binds
only port there is no chance of double-bind.

bpf_bind() sets `force_bind_address_no_port` to bind to only IP despite
of value of `bind_address_no_port` socket field.

bpf_bind() sets `with_lock` to `false` when calling to __inet_bind()
and __inet6_bind() since all call-sites, where bpf_bind() is called,
already hold socket lock.

Refactor `bind()` code to make it ready to be called from BPF helper
function `bpf_bind()` (will be added soon). Implementation of
`inet_bind()` and `inet6_bind()` is separated into `__inet_bind()` and
`__inet6_bind()` correspondingly. These function can be used from both
`sk_prot-&gt;bind` and `bpf_bind()` contexts.

New functions have two additional arguments.

`force_bind_address_no_port` forces binding to IP only w/o checking
`inet_sock.bind_address_no_port` field. It'll allow to bind local end of
a connection to desired IP in `bpf_bind()` w/o changing
`bind_address_no_port` field of a socket. It's useful since `bpf_bind()`
can return an error and we'd need to restore original value of
`bind_address_no_port` in that case if we changed this before calling to
the helper.

`with_lock` specifies whether to lock socket when working with `struct
sk` or not. The argument is set to `true` for `sk_prot-&gt;bind`, i.e. old
behavior is preserved. But it will be set to `false` for `bpf_bind()`
use-case. The reason is all call-sites, where `bpf_bind()` will be
called, already hold that socket lock.

== The problem ==

There is a use-case when all processes inside a cgroup should use one
single IP address on a host that has multiple IP configured.  Those
processes should use the IP for both ingress and egress, for TCP and UDP
traffic. So TCP/UDP servers should be bound to that IP to accept
incoming connections on it, and TCP/UDP clients should make outgoing
connections from that IP. It should not require changing application
code since it's often not possible.

Currently it's solved by intercepting glibc wrappers around syscalls
such as `bind(2)` and `connect(2)`. It's done by a shared library that
is preloaded for every process in a cgroup so that whenever TCP/UDP
server calls `bind(2)`, the library replaces IP in sockaddr before
passing arguments to syscall. When application calls `connect(2)` the
library transparently binds the local end of connection to that IP
(`bind(2)` with `IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT` to avoid performance penalty).

Shared library approach is fragile though, e.g.:
* some applications clear env vars (incl. `LD_PRELOAD`);
* `/etc/ld.so.preload` doesn't help since some applications are linked
  with option `-z nodefaultlib`;
* other applications don't use glibc and there is nothing to intercept.

== The solution ==

The patch provides much more reliable in-kernel solution for the 1st
part of the problem: binding TCP/UDP servers on desired IP. It does not
depend on application environment and implementation details (whether
glibc is used or not).

It adds new eBPF program type `BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR` and
attach types `BPF_CGROUP_INET4_BIND` and `BPF_CGROUP_INET6_BIND`
(similar to already existing `BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE`).

The new program type is intended to be used with sockets (`struct sock`)
in a cgroup and provided by user `struct sockaddr`. Pointers to both of
them are parts of the context passed to programs of newly added types.

The new attach types provides hooks in `bind(2)` system call for both
IPv4 and IPv6 so that one can write a program to override IP addresses
and ports user program tries to bind to and apply such a program for
whole cgroup.

== Implementation notes ==

[1]
Separate attach types for `AF_INET` and `AF_INET6` are added
intentionally to prevent reading/writing to offsets that don't make
sense for corresponding socket family. E.g. if user passes `sockaddr_in`
it doesn't make sense to read from / write to `user_ip6[]` context
fields.

[2]
The write access to `struct bpf_sock_addr_kern` is implemented using
special field as an additional "register".

There are just two registers in `sock_addr_convert_ctx_access`: `src`
with value to write and `dst` with pointer to context that can't be
changed not to break later instructions. But the fields, allowed to
write to, are not available directly and to access them address of
corresponding pointer has to be loaded first. To get additional register
the 1st not used by `src` and `dst` one is taken, its content is saved
to `bpf_sock_addr_kern.tmp_reg`, then the register is used to load
address of pointer field, and finally the register's content is restored
from the temporary field after writing `src` value.

(`bind(2)` with `IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT` to avoid performance penalty).

Shared library approach is fragile though, e.g.:
* some applications clear env vars (incl. `LD_PRELOAD`);
* `/etc/ld.so.preload` doesn't help since some applications are linked
  with option `-z nodefaultlib`;
* other applications don't use glibc and there is nothing to intercept.

== The solution ==

The patch provides much more reliable in-kernel solution for the 1st
part of the problem: binding TCP/UDP servers on desired IP. It does not
depend on application environment and implementation details (whether
glibc is used or not).

It adds new eBPF program type `BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR` and
attach types `BPF_CGROUP_INET4_BIND` and `BPF_CGROUP_INET6_BIND`
(similar to already existing `BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE`).

The new program type is intended to be used with sockets (`struct sock`)
in a cgroup and provided by user `struct sockaddr`. Pointers to both of
them are parts of the context passed to programs of newly added types.

The new attach types provides hooks in `bind(2)` system call for both
IPv4 and IPv6 so that one can write a program to override IP addresses
and ports user program tries to bind to and apply such a program for
whole cgroup.

== Implementation notes ==

[1]
Separate attach types for `AF_INET` and `AF_INET6` are added
intentionally to prevent reading/writing to offsets that don't make
sense for corresponding socket family. E.g. if user passes `sockaddr_in`
it doesn't make sense to read from / write to `user_ip6[]` context
fields.

[2]
The write access to `struct bpf_sock_addr_kern` is implemented using
special field as an additional "register".

There are just two registers in `sock_addr_convert_ctx_access`: `src`
with value to write and `dst` with pointer to context that can't be
changed not to break later instructions. But the fields, allowed to
write to, are not available directly and to access them address of
corresponding pointer has to be loaded first. To get additional register
the 1st not used by `src` and `dst` one is taken, its content is saved
to `bpf_sock_addr_kern.tmp_reg`, then the register is used to load
address of pointer field, and finally the register's content is restored
from the temporary field after writing `src` value.

Synchronous pernet_operations are not allowed anymore.
All are asynchronous. So, drop the structure member.

arp_net_ops just addr/removes /proc entry.

devinet_ops allocates and frees duplicate of init_net tables
and (un)registers sysctl entries.

fib_net_ops allocates and frees pernet tables, creates/destroys
netlink socket and (un)initializes /proc entries. Foreign
pernet_operations do not touch them.

ip_rt_proc_ops only modifies pernet /proc entries.

xfrm_net_ops creates/destroys /proc entries, allocates/frees
pernet statistics, hashes and tables, and (un)initializes
sysctl files. These are not touched by foreigh pernet_operations

xfrm4_net_ops allocates/frees private pernet memory, and
configures sysctls.

sysctl_route_ops creates/destroys sysctls.

rt_genid_ops only initializes fields of just allocated net.

ipv4_inetpeer_ops allocated/frees net private memory.

igmp_net_ops just creates/destroys /proc files and socket,
noone else interested in.

tcp_sk_ops seems to be safe, because tcp_sk_init() does not
depend on any other pernet_operations modifications. Iteration
over hash table in inet_twsk_purge() is made under RCU lock,
and it's safe to iterate the table this way. Removing from
the table happen from inet_twsk_deschedule_put(), but this
function is safe without any extern locks, as it's synchronized
inside itself. There are many examples, it's used in different
context. So, it's safe to leave tcp_sk_exit_batch() unlocked.

tcp_net_metrics_ops is synchronized on tcp_metrics_lock and safe.

udplite4_net_ops only creates/destroys pernet /proc file.

icmp_sk_ops creates percpu sockets, not touched by foreign
pernet_operations.

ipmr_net_ops creates/destroys pernet fib tables, (un)registers
fib rules and /proc files. This seem to be safe to execute
in parallel with foreign pernet_operations.

af_inet_ops just sets up default parameters of newly created net.

ipv4_mib_ops creates and destroys pernet percpu statistics.

raw_net_ops, tcp4_net_ops, udp4_net_ops, ping_v4_net_ops
and ip_proc_ops only create/destroy pernet /proc files.

ip4_frags_ops creates and destroys sysctl file.

So, it's safe to make the pernet_operations async.

<title>net: make getname() functions return length rather than use int* parameter</title>

<id>9b2c45d479d0fb8647c9e83359df69162b5fbe5f</id>
<content type='text'>
Changes since v1:
Added changes in these files:
    drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_transport.c
    drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/lib-socket.c
    drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_login.c
    drivers/vhost/net.c
    fs/dlm/lowcomms.c
    fs/ocfs2/cluster/tcp.c
    security/tomoyo/network.c

Before:
All these functions either return a negative error indicator,
or store length of sockaddr into "int *socklen" parameter
and return zero on success.

"int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not
care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value
it does not need.

None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols
ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it.

This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success,
return length of sockaddr. It's always &gt;= 0 and can be differentiated
from an error.

Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err &lt; 0)", where needed.

rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was
to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &amp;buflen and subsequently
not used in any way.

Userspace API is not changed.

<title>vfs: do bulk POLL* -&gt; EPOLL* replacement</title>

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.
