This patch adds new BPF helper functions, bpf_sk_lookup_tcp() and bpf_sk_lookup_udp() which allows BPF programs to find out if there is a socket listening on this host, and returns a socket pointer which the BPF program can then access to determine, for instance, whether to forward or drop traffic. bpf_sk_lookup_xxx() may take a reference on the socket, so when a BPF program makes use of this function, it must subsequently pass the returned pointer into the newly added sk_release() to return the reference. By way of example, the following pseudocode would filter inbound connections at XDP if there is no corresponding service listening for the traffic: struct bpf_sock_tuple tuple; struct bpf_sock_ops *sk; populate_tuple(ctx, &tuple); // Extract the 5tuple from the packet sk = bpf_sk_lookup_tcp(ctx, &tuple, sizeof tuple, netns, 0); if (!sk) { // Couldn't find a socket listening for this traffic. Drop. return TC_ACT_SHOT; } bpf_sk_release(sk, 0); return TC_ACT_OK; Signed-off-by: Joe Stringer <joe@wand.net.nz> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
