When printing verifier state for any log level, print full verifier state only on function calls or on errors. Otherwise, only print the registers and stack slots that were accessed.

Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== Changes to bpf.h tend to clog up our build systems. The netdev/bpf build bot does incremental builds to save time (reusing the build directory to only rebuild changed objects). This is the rough breakdown of how many objects needs to be rebuilt based on file touched: kernel.h 40633 bpf.h 17881 bpf-cgroup.h 17875 skbuff.h 10696 bpf-netns.h 7604 netdevice.h 7452 filter.h 5003 sock.h 4959 tcp.h 4048 As the stats show touching bpf.h is _very_ expensive. Bulk of the objects get rebuilt because MM includes cgroup headers. Luckily bpf-cgroup.h does not fundamentally depend on bpf.h so we can break that dependency and reduce the number of objects. With the patches applied touching bpf.h causes 5019 objects to be rebuilt (17881 / 5019 = 3.56x). That's pretty much down to filter.h plus noise. v2: Try to make the new headers wider in scope. Collapse bpf-link and bpf-cgroup-types into one header, which may serve as "BPF kernel API" header in the future if needed. Rename bpf-cgroup-storage.h to bpf-inlines.h. Add a fix for the s390 build issue. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211215061916.715513-1-kuba@kernel.org/ Merge bpf-includes.h into bpf.h. v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211215181231.1053479-1-kuba@kernel.org/ Change course - break off cgroup instead of breaking off bpf. v5: Add forward declaration of struct bpf_prog to perf_event.h when !CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL (kbuild bot). ==================== Signed-off-by:

Remove the dependency from cgroup-defs.h to bpf-cgroup.h and bpf.h. This reduces the incremental build size of x86 allmodconfig after bpf.h was touched from ~17k objects rebuilt to ~5k objects. bpf.h is 2.2kLoC and is modified relatively often. We need a new header with just the definition of struct cgroup_bpf and enum cgroup_bpf_attach_type, this is akin to cgroup-defs.h. Signed-off-by:

A single clang toolchain can generate binaries for multiple architectures, so instead of having prefixes such as aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc, clang uses the -target parameter: `clang -target aarch64-linux-gnu'. Patch 1 adds the parameter in Makefile.include so tools can easily support this. Patch 2 prepares for the libbpf change from patch 3 (keep building resolve_btfids's libbpf in the host arch, when cross-building the kernel with clang).

The CROSS_COMPILE variable may be present during resolve_btfids build if the kernel is being cross-built. Since resolve_btfids is always executed on the host, we set CC to HOSTCC in order to use the host toolchain when cross-building with GCC. But instead of a toolchain prefix, cross-build with clang uses a "-target" parameter, which Makefile.include deduces from the CROSS_COMPILE variable. In order to avoid cross-building libbpf, clear CROSS_COMPILE before building resolve_btfids. Signed-off-by:

Cross-compilation with clang uses the -target parameter rather than a toolchain prefix. Just like the kernel Makefile, add that parameter to CFLAGS when CROSS_COMPILE is set. Unlike the kernel Makefile, we use the --sysroot and --gcc-toolchain options because unlike the kernel, tools require standard libraries. Commit c91d4e47 ("Makefile: Remove '--gcc-toolchain' flag") provides some background about --gcc-toolchain. Normally clang finds on its own the additional utilities and libraries that it needs (for example GNU ld or glibc). On some systems however, this autodetection doesn't work. There, our only recourse is asking GCC directly, and pass the result to --sysroot and --gcc-toolchain. Of course that only works when a cross GCC is available. Autodetection worked fine on Debian, but to use the aarch64-linux-gnu toolchain from Archlinux I needed both --sysroot (for crt1.o) and --gcc-toolchain (for crtbegin.o, -lgcc). The --prefix parameter wasn't needed there, but it might be useful on other distributions. Use the CLANG_CROSS_FLAGS variable instead of CLANG_FLAGS because it allows tools such as bpftool, that need to build both host and target binaries, to easily filter out the cross-build flags from CFLAGS.

Fix possible read beyond ELF "license" data section if the license string is not properly zero-terminated. Use the fact that libbpf_strlcpy never accesses the (N-1)st byte of the source string because it's replaced with '\0' anyways. If this happens, it's a violation of contract between libbpf and a user, but not handling this more robustly upsets CIFuzz, so given the fix is trivial, let's fix the potential issue.

The need to increase RLIMIT_MEMLOCK to do anything useful with BPF is one of the first extremely frustrating gotchas that all new BPF users go through and in some cases have to learn it a very hard way. Luckily, starting with upstream Linux kernel version 5.11, BPF subsystem dropped the dependency on memlock and uses memcg-based memory accounting instead. Unfortunately, detecting memcg-based BPF memory accounting is far from trivial (as can be evidenced by this patch), so in practice most BPF applications still do unconditional RLIMIT_MEMLOCK increase. As we move towards libbpf 1.0, it would be good to allow users to forget about RLIMIT_MEMLOCK vs memcg and let libbpf do the sensible adjustment automatically. This patch paves the way forward in this matter. Libbpf will do feature detection of memcg-based accounting, and if detected, will do nothing. But if the kernel is too old, just like BCC, libbpf will automatically increase RLIMIT_MEMLOCK on behalf of user application ([0]). As this is technically a breaking change, during the transition period applications have to opt into libbpf 1.0 mode by setting LIBBPF_STRICT_AUTO_RLIMIT_MEMLOCK bit when calling libbpf_set_strict_mode(). Libbpf allows to control the exact amount of set RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limit with libbpf_set_memlock_rlim_max() API. Passing 0 will make libbpf do nothing with RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. libbpf_set_memlock_rlim_max() has to be called before the first bpf_prog_load(), bpf_btf_load(), or bpf_object__load() call, otherwise it has no effect and will return -EBUSY.

strncpy() has a notoriously error-prone semantics which makes GCC complain about it a lot (and quite often completely completely falsely at that). Instead of pleasing GCC all the time (-Wno-stringop-truncation is unfortunately only supported by GCC, so it's a bit too messy to just enable it in Makefile), add libbpf-internal libbpf_strlcpy() helper which follows what FreeBSD's strlcpy() does and what most people would expect from strncpy(): copies up to N-1 first bytes from source string into destination string and ensures zero-termination afterwards. Replace all the relevant uses of strncpy/strncat/memcpy in libbpf with libbpf_strlcpy(). This also fixes the issue reported by Emmanuel Deloget in xsk.c where memcpy() could access source string beyond its end.

Adding support to access arguments with int pointer arguments in tracing programs. Currently we allow tracing programs to access only pointers to string (char pointer), void pointers and pointers to structs. If we try to access argument which is pointer to int, verifier will fail to load the program with; R1 type=ctx expected=fp ; int BPF_PROG(fmod_ret_test, int _a, __u64 _b, int _ret) 0: (bf) r6 = r1 ; int BPF_PROG(fmod_ret_test, int _a, __u64 _b, int _ret) 1: (79) r9 = *(u64 *)(r6 +8) func 'bpf_modify_return_test' arg1 type INT is not a struct There is no harm for the program to access int pointer argument. We are already doing that for string pointer, which is pointer to int with 1 byte size. Changing the is_string_ptr to generic integer check and renaming it to btf_type_is_int. Signed-off-by:

During linking, type IDs in the resulting linked BPF object file can change, and so ldimm64 instructions corresponding to BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_TARGET and BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL CO-RE relos can get their imm value out of sync with actual CO-RE relocation information that's updated by BPF linker properly during linking process. We could teach BPF linker to adjust such instructions, but it feels a bit too much for linker to re-implement good chunk of bpf_core_patch_insns logic just for this. This is a redundant safety check for TYPE_ID relocations, as the real validation is in matching CO-RE specs, so if that works fine, it's very unlikely that there is something wrong with the instruction itself. So, instead, teach libbpf (and kernel) to ignore insn->imm for BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_TARGET and BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL relos. Signed-off-by:

Hou Tao says: ==================== Hi, The motivation for introducing bpf_strncmp() helper comes from two aspects: (1) clang doesn't always replace strncmp() automatically In tracing program, sometimes we need to using a home-made strncmp() to check whether or not the file name is expected. (2) the performance of home-made strncmp is not so good As shown in the benchmark in patch #4, the performance of bpf_strncmp() helper is 18% or 33% better than home-made strncmp() under x86-64 or arm64 when the compared string length is 64. When the string length grows to 4095, the performance win will be 179% or 600% under x86-64 or arm64. Any comments are welcome. Regards, Tao Change Log: v2: * rebased on bpf-next * drop patch "selftests/bpf: factor out common helpers for benchmarks" (suggested by Andrii) * remove unnecessary inline functions and add comments for programs which will be rejected by verifier in patch 4 (suggested by Andrii) * rename variables used in will-fail programs to clarify the purposes. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211130142215.1237217-1-houtao1@huawei.com * change API to bpf_strncmp(const char *s1, u32 s1_sz, const char *s2) * add benchmark refactor and benchmark between bpf_strncmp() and strncmp() RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211106132822.1396621-1-houtao1@huawei.com/ ==================== Signed-off-by:

Four test cases are added: (1) ensure the return value is expected (2) ensure no const string size is rejected (3) ensure writable target is rejected (4) ensure no null-terminated target is rejected Signed-off-by:

Add benchmark to compare the performance between home-made strncmp() in bpf program and bpf_strncmp() helper. In summary, the performance win of bpf_strncmp() under x86-64 is greater than 18% when the compared string length is greater than 64, and is 179% when the length is 4095. Under arm64 the performance win is even bigger: 33% when the length is greater than 64 and 600% when the length is 4095. The following is the details: no-helper-X: use home-made strncmp() to compare X-sized string helper-Y: use bpf_strncmp() to compare Y-sized string Under x86-64: no-helper-1 3.504 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-1 3.347 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-8 3.357 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-8 3.307 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-32 3.064 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-32 3.253 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-64 2.563 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-64 3.040 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-128 1.975 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-128 2.641 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-512 0.759 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-512 1.574 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-2048 0.329 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-2048 0.602 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-4095 0.117 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-4095 0.327 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) Under arm64: no-helper-1 2.806 ± 0.004M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-1 2.819 ± 0.002M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-8 2.797 ± 0.109M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-8 2.786 ± 0.025M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-32 2.399 ± 0.011M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-32 2.703 ± 0.002M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-64 2.020 ± 0.015M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-64 2.702 ± 0.073M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-128 1.604 ± 0.001M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-128 2.516 ± 0.002M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-512 0.699 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-512 2.106 ± 0.003M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-2048 0.215 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-2048 1.223 ± 0.003M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) no-helper-4095 0.112 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) helper-4095 0.796 ± 0.000M/s (drops 0.000 ± 0.000M/s) Signed-off-by:
