<content type='text'>
Fix a refcount underflow problem reported by syzbot that can happen
when a system is running out of memory. If xp_alloc_tx_descs() fails,
and it can only fail due to not having enough memory, then the error
path is triggered. In this error path, the refcount of the pool is
decremented as it has incremented before. However, the reference to
the pool in the socket was not nulled. This means that when the socket
is closed later, the socket teardown logic will think that there is a
pool attached to the socket and try to decrease the refcount again,
leading to a refcount underflow.

I chose this fix as it involved adding just a single line. Another
option would have been to move xp_get_pool() and the assignment of
xs-&gt;pool to after the if-statement and using xs_umem-&gt;pool instead of
xs-&gt;pool in the whole if-statement resulting in somewhat simpler code,
but this would have led to much more churn in the code base perhaps
making it harder to backport.

<title>xsk: Honor SO_BINDTODEVICE on bind</title>

Initial creation of an AF_XDP socket requires CAP_NET_RAW capability. A
privileged process might create the socket and pass it to a non-privileged
process for later use. However, that process will be able to bind the socket
to any network interface. Even though it will not be able to receive any
traffic without modification of the BPF map, the situation is not ideal.

Sockets already have a mechanism that can be used to restrict what interface
they can be attached to. That is SO_BINDTODEVICE.

To change the SO_BINDTODEVICE binding the process will need CAP_NET_RAW.

Make xsk_bind() honor the SO_BINDTODEVICE in order to allow safer workflow
when non-privileged process is using AF_XDP.

The intended workflow is following:

  1. First process creates a bare socket with socket(AF_XDP, ...).
  2. First process loads the XSK program to the interface.
  3. First process adds the socket fd to a BPF map.
  4. First process ties socket fd to a particular interface using
     SO_BINDTODEVICE.
  5. First process sends socket fd to a second process.
  6. Second process allocates UMEM.
  7. Second process binds socket to the interface with bind(...).
  8. Second process sends/receives the traffic.

All the steps above are possible today if the first process is privileged
and the second one has sufficient RLIMIT_MEMLOCK and no capabilities.
However, the second process will be able to bind the socket to any interface
it wants on step 7 and send traffic from it. With the proposed change, the
second process will be able to bind the socket only to a specific interface
chosen by the first process at step 4.

Pull networking changes from Jakub Kicinski:
 "WiFi 7 and sendpage changes are the biggest pieces of work for this
  release. The latter will definitely require fixes but I think that we
  got it to a reasonable point.

  Core:

   - Rework the sendpage &amp; splice implementations

     Instead of feeding data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg
     handlers to support taking a reference on the data, controlled by a
     new flag called MSG_SPLICE_PAGES

     Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file to invoke an
     additional callback instead of trying to predict what the right
     combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is

     Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely

   - Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
     SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid

   - Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT

   - Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker

   - Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families

  Protocols:

   - Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
     sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
     tcp_rmem[2]

   - Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy

   - Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
     that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags

   - Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
     linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative

   - Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info
     (MPTCP_FULL_INFO)

   - Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have a full
     record

   - Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving the
     way to issuing ioctls over io_uring

   - Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
     encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address

   - Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
     in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
     link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch

   - PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable

   - Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
     (ipconfig)

   - Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
     (e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
     packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge)

   - Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets

   - Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
     printk level to debug

   - HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto

   - Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4

   - Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7

  BPF:

   - Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
     maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used, or
     in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
     especially those using open-coded iterators

   - Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
     assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
     But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what the
     output buffer *should* be, without writing anything

   - Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers

   - Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper

   - Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands

   - Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
     maps as read-only)

   - Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo

   - Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are
     self-explanatory):
      - Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
        bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
        and bpf_dynptr_clone().
      - bpf_task_under_cgroup()
      - bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
      - bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs

  Netfilter:

   - Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
     presence of an entry in a map without using the value

   - Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds

   - Allow updating size of a set

   - Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing

  Driver API:

   - Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
     "offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
     (i.e. packets coming in and out)

   - Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules

   - Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
     common helper routines

   - Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
     associated with the PCS layer

   - Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
     scheduler offload (taprio)

   - Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs
     to fit into the message

   - Split devlink instance and devlink port operations

This allows to do more centralized decisions later on, and generally
makes it very explicit which maps are privileged and which are not
(e.g., LRU_HASH and LRU_PERCPU_HASH, which are privileged HASH variants,
as opposed to unprivileged HASH and HASH_PERCPU; now this is explicit
and easy to verify).

<id>4c630f307455c06f99bdeca7f7a1ab5318604fe0</id>
<content type='text'>
We are now in a position where no caller of pin_user_pages() requires the
vmas parameter at all, so eliminate this parameter from the function and
all callers.

This clears the way to removing the vmas parameter from GUP altogether.

Compare pool-&gt;dma_pages instead of pool-&gt;dma_pages_cnt to check for an
active DMA mapping. pool-&gt;dma_pages needs to be read anyway to access
the map so this compiles to more efficient code.

pull-request: bpf-next 2023-04-13

We've added 260 non-merge commits during the last 36 day(s) which contain
a total of 356 files changed, 21786 insertions(+), 11275 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Rework BPF verifier log behavior and implement it as a rotating log
   by default with the option to retain old-style fixed log behavior,
   from Andrii Nakryiko.

2) Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating
   in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap
   params, from Christian Ehrig.

3) Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc
   exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton,
   from Alexei Starovoitov.

4) Optimize hashmap lookups when key size is multiple of 4,
   from Anton Protopopov.

5) Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr
   tasks to be stored in BPF maps, from David Vernet.

6) Add support for stashing local BPF kptr into a map value via
   bpf_kptr_xchg(). This is useful e.g. for rbtree node creation
   for new cgroups, from Dave Marchevsky.

7) Fix BTF handling of is_int_ptr to skip modifiers to work around
   tracing issues where a program cannot be attached, from Feng Zhou.

8) Migrate a big portion of test_verifier unit tests over to
   test_progs -a verifier_* via inline asm to ease {read,debug}ability,
   from Eduard Zingerman.

9) Several updates to the instruction-set.rst documentation
   which is subject to future IETF standardization
   (https://lwn.net/Articles/926882/), from Dave Thaler.

10) Fix BPF verifier in the __reg_bound_offset's 64-&gt;32 tnum sub-register
    known bits information propagation, from Daniel Borkmann.

11) Add skb bitfield compaction work related to BPF with the overall goal
    to make more of the sk_buff bits optional, from Jakub Kicinski.

12) BPF selftest cleanups for build id extraction which stand on its own
    from the upcoming integration work of build id into struct file object,
    from Jiri Olsa.

13) Add fixes and optimizations for xsk descriptor validation and several
    selftest improvements for xsk sockets, from Kal Conley.

14) Add BPF links for struct_ops and enable switching implementations
    of BPF TCP cong-ctls under a given name by replacing backing
    struct_ops map, from Kui-Feng Lee.

15) Remove a misleading BPF verifier env-&gt;bypass_spec_v1 check on variable
    offset stack read as earlier Spectre checks cover this,
    from Luis Gerhorst.

16) Fix issues in copy_from_user_nofault() for BPF and other tracers
    to resemble copy_from_user_nmi() from safety PoV, from Florian Lehner
    and Alexei Starovoitov.

17) Add --json-summary option to test_progs in order for CI tooling to
    ease parsing of test results, from Manu Bretelle.

18) Batch of improvements and refactoring to prep for upcoming
    bpf_local_storage conversion to bpf_mem_cache_{alloc,free} allocator,
    from Martin KaFai Lau.

19) Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control
    flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations,
    from Quentin Monnet.

20) Fix attaching fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm to modules by extracting
    the module name from BTF of the target and searching kallsyms of
    the correct module, from Viktor Malik.

21) Improve BPF verifier handling of '&lt;const&gt; &lt;cond&gt; &lt;non_const&gt;'
    to better detect whether in particular jmp32 branches are taken,
    from Yonghong Song.

22) Allow BPF TCP cong-ctls to write app_limited of struct tcp_sock.
    A built-in cc or one from a kernel module is already able to write
    to app_limited, from Yixin Shen.

7) Fix BTF handling of is_int_ptr to skip modifiers to work around
   tracing issues where a program cannot be attached, from Feng Zhou.

8) Migrate a big portion of test_verifier unit tests over to
   test_progs -a verifier_* via inline asm to ease {read,debug}ability,
   from Eduard Zingerman.

9) Several updates to the instruction-set.rst documentation
   which is subject to future IETF standardization
   (https://lwn.net/Articles/926882/), from Dave Thaler.

10) Fix BPF verifier in the __reg_bound_offset's 64-&gt;32 tnum sub-register
    known bits information propagation, from Daniel Borkmann.

11) Add skb bitfield compaction work related to BPF with the overall goal
    to make more of the sk_buff bits optional, from Jakub Kicinski.

12) BPF selftest cleanups for build id extraction which stand on its own
    from the upcoming integration work of build id into struct file object,
    from Jiri Olsa.

13) Add fixes and optimizations for xsk descriptor validation and several
    selftest improvements for xsk sockets, from Kal Conley.

14) Add BPF links for struct_ops and enable switching implementations
    of BPF TCP cong-ctls under a given name by replacing backing
    struct_ops map, from Kui-Feng Lee.

15) Remove a misleading BPF verifier env-&gt;bypass_spec_v1 check on variable
    offset stack read as earlier Spectre checks cover this,
    from Luis Gerhorst.

16) Fix issues in copy_from_user_nofault() for BPF and other tracers
    to resemble copy_from_user_nmi() from safety PoV, from Florian Lehner
    and Alexei Starovoitov.

17) Add --json-summary option to test_progs in order for CI tooling to
    ease parsing of test results, from Manu Bretelle.

18) Batch of improvements and refactoring to prep for upcoming
    bpf_local_storage conversion to bpf_mem_cache_{alloc,free} allocator,
    from Martin KaFai Lau.

19) Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control
    flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations,
    from Quentin Monnet.

20) Fix attaching fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm to modules by extracting
    the module name from BTF of the target and searching kallsyms of
    the correct module, from Viktor Malik.

21) Improve BPF verifier handling of '&lt;const&gt; &lt;cond&gt; &lt;non_const&gt;'
    to better detect whether in particular jmp32 branches are taken,
    from Yonghong Song.

22) Allow BPF TCP cong-ctls to write app_limited of struct tcp_sock.
    A built-in cc or one from a kernel module is already able to write
    to app_limited, from Yixin Shen.

<title>xsk: Elide base_addr comparison in xp_unaligned_validate_desc</title>

Remove redundant (base_addr &gt;= pool-&gt;addrs_cnt) comparison from the
conditional.

In particular, addr is computed as:

    addr = base_addr + offset

... where base_addr and offset are stored as 48-bit and 16-bit unsigned
integers, respectively. The above sum cannot overflow u64 since base_addr
has a maximum value of 0x0000ffffffffffff and offset has a maximum value
of 0xffff (implying a maximum sum of 0x000100000000fffe). Since overflow
is impossible, it follows that addr &gt;= base_addr.

Now if (base_addr &gt;= pool-&gt;addrs_cnt), then clearly:

    addr &gt;= base_addr
         &gt;= pool-&gt;addrs_cnt

Thus, (base_addr &gt;= pool-&gt;addrs_cnt) implies (addr &gt;= pool-&gt;addrs_cnt).
Subsequently, the former comparison is unnecessary in the conditional
since for any boolean expressions A and B, (A || B) &amp;&amp; (A -&gt; B) is
equivalent to B.
