pull-request: bpf 2021-09-14

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

We've added 7 non-merge commits during the last 13 day(s) which contain
a total of 18 files changed, 334 insertions(+), 193 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Fix mmap_lock lockdep splat in BPF stack map's build_id lookup, from Yonghong Song.

2) Fix BPF cgroup v2 program bypass upon net_cls/prio activation, from Daniel Borkmann.

3) Fix kvcalloc() BTF line info splat on oversized allocation attempts, from Bixuan Cui.

4) Fix BPF selftest build of task_pt_regs test for arm64/s390, from Jean-Philippe Brucker.

5) Fix BPF's disasm.{c,h} to dual-license so that it is aligned with bpftool given the former
   is a build dependency for the latter, from Daniel Borkmann with ACKs from contributors.

<title>bpf, cgroups: Fix cgroup v2 fallback on v1/v2 mixed mode</title>

<content type='text'>
Fix cgroup v1 interference when non-root cgroup v2 BPF programs are used.
Back in the days, commit bd1060a1d671 ("sock, cgroup: add sock-&gt;sk_cgroup")
embedded per-socket cgroup information into sock-&gt;sk_cgrp_data and in order
to save 8 bytes in struct sock made both mutually exclusive, that is, when
cgroup v1 socket tagging (e.g. net_cls/net_prio) is used, then cgroup v2
falls back to the root cgroup in sock_cgroup_ptr() (&amp;cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp).

The assumption made was "there is no reason to mix the two and this is in line
with how legacy and v2 compatibility is handled" as stated in bd1060a1d671.
However, with Kubernetes more widely supporting cgroups v2 as well nowadays,
this assumption no longer holds, and the possibility of the v1/v2 mixed mode
with the v2 root fallback being hit becomes a real security issue.

Many of the cgroup v2 BPF programs are also used for policy enforcement, just
to pick _one_ example, that is, to programmatically deny socket related system
calls like connect(2) or bind(2). A v2 root fallback would implicitly cause
a policy bypass for the affected Pods.

In production environments, we have recently seen this case due to various
circumstances: i) a different 3rd party agent and/or ii) a container runtime
such as [0] in the user's environment configuring legacy cgroup v1 net_cls
tags, which triggered implicitly mentioned root fallback. Another case is
Kubernetes projects like kind [1] which create Kubernetes nodes in a container
and also add cgroup namespaces to the mix, meaning programs which are attached
to the cgroup v2 root of the cgroup namespace get attached to a non-root
cgroup v2 path from init namespace point of view. And the latter's root is
out of reach for agents on a kind Kubernetes node to configure. Meaning, any
entity on the node setting cgroup v1 net_cls tag will trigger the bypass
despite cgroup v2 BPF programs attached to the namespace root.

Generally, this mutual exclusiveness does not hold anymore in today's user
environments and makes cgroup v2 usage from BPF side fragile and unreliable.
This fix adds proper struct cgroup pointer for the cgroup v2 case to struct
sock_cgroup_data in order to address these issues; this implicitly also fixes
the tradeoffs being made back then with regards to races and refcount leaks
as stated in bd1060a1d671, and removes the fallback, so that cgroup v2 BPF
programs always operate as expected.

Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next:

1) Clean up and consolidate ct ecache infrastructure by merging ct and
   expect notifiers, from Florian Westphal.

2) Missing counters and timestamp in nfnetlink_queue and _log conntrack
   information.

3) Missing error check for xt_register_template() in iptables mangle,
   as a incremental fix for the previous pull request, also from
   Florian Westphal.

4) Add netfilter hooks for the SRv6 lightweigh tunnel driver, from
   Ryoga Sato. The hooks are enabled via nf_hooks_lwtunnel sysctl
   to make sure existing netfilter rulesets do not break. There is
   a static key to disable the hooks by default.

   The pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_netif_receive.sh shows no noticeable
   impact in the seg6_input path for non-netfilter users: similar
   numbers with and without this patch.

   This is a sample of the perf report output:

This patch introduces netfilter hooks for solving the problem that
conntrack couldn't record both inner flows and outer flows.

This patch also introduces a new sysctl toggle for enabling lightweight
tunnel netfilter hooks.

<title>rtnetlink: Return correct error on changing device netns</title>

<id>96a6b93b69880b2c978e1b2be9cae6970b605008</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently when device is moved between network namespaces using
RTM_NEWLINK message type and one of netns attributes (FLA_NET_NS_PID,
IFLA_NET_NS_FD, IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID) but w/o specifying IFLA_IFNAME, and
target namespace already has device with same name, userspace will get
EINVAL what is confusing and makes debugging harder.

Fix it so that userspace gets more appropriate EEXIST instead what makes
debugging much easier.

Before:

  # ./ifname.sh
  + ip netns add ns0
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link show l0
  8: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 66:90:b5:d5:78:69 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip link show l0
  10: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 6e:c6:1f:15:20:8d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link set l0 netns ns0
  RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

After:

  # ./ifname.sh
  + ip netns add ns0
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link show l0
  8: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 1e:4a:72:e3:e3:8f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip link show l0
  10: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether f2:fc:fe:2b:7d:a6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link set l0 netns ns0
  RTNETLINK answers: File exists

The problem is that do_setlink() passes its `char *ifname` argument,
that it gets from a caller, to __dev_change_net_namespace() as is (as
`const char *pat`), but semantics of ifname and pat can be different.

For example, __rtnl_newlink() does this:

net/core/rtnetlink.c
    3270	char ifname[IFNAMSIZ];
     ...
    3286	if (tb[IFLA_IFNAME])
    3287		nla_strscpy(ifname, tb[IFLA_IFNAME], IFNAMSIZ);
    3288	else
    3289		ifname[0] = '\0';
     ...
    3364	if (dev) {
     ...
    3394		return do_setlink(skb, dev, ifm, extack, tb, ifname, status);
    3395	}

, i.e. do_setlink() gets ifname pointer that is always valid no matter
if user specified IFLA_IFNAME or not and then do_setlink() passes this
ifname pointer as is to __dev_change_net_namespace() as pat argument.

But the pat (pattern) in __dev_change_net_namespace() is used as:

net/core/dev.c
   11198	err = -EEXIST;
   11199	if (__dev_get_by_name(net, dev-&gt;name)) {
   11200		/* We get here if we can't use the current device name */
   11201		if (!pat)
   11202			goto out;
   11203		err = dev_get_valid_name(net, dev, pat);
   11204		if (err &lt; 0)
   11205			goto out;
   11206	}

As the result the `goto out` path on line 11202 is neven taken and
instead of returning EEXIST defined on line 11198,
__dev_change_net_namespace() returns an error from dev_get_valid_name()
and this, in turn, will be EINVAL for ifname[0] = '\0' set earlier.

<title>sock: remove one redundant SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER macro</title>

Both SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER are defined to the same value in
net/core/sock.c and drivers/vhost/net.c.

Move the SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER definition to net/core/sock.h,
as both net/core/sock.c and drivers/vhost/net.c include it,
and it seems a reasonable file to put the macro.
