====================
BPF Refcount followups 3: bpf_mem_free_rcu refcounted nodes

This series is the third of three (or more) followups to address issues
in the bpf_refcount shared ownership implementation discovered by Kumar.
This series addresses the use-after-free scenario described in [0]. The
first followup series ([1]) also attempted to address the same
use-after-free, but only got rid of the splat without addressing the
underlying issue. After this series the underyling issue is fixed and
bpf_refcount_acquire can be re-enabled.

The main fix here is migration of bpf_obj_drop to use
bpf_mem_free_rcu. To understand why this fixes the issue, let us consider
the example interleaving provided by Kumar in [0]:

CPU 0                                   CPU 1
n = bpf_obj_new
lock(lock1)
bpf_rbtree_add(rbtree1, n)
m = bpf_rbtree_acquire(n)
unlock(lock1)

kptr_xchg(map, m) // move to map
// at this point, refcount = 2
					m = kptr_xchg(map, NULL)
					lock(lock2)
lock(lock1)				bpf_rbtree_add(rbtree2, m)
p = bpf_rbtree_first(rbtree1)			if (!RB_EMPTY_NODE) bpf_obj_drop_impl(m) // A
bpf_rbtree_remove(rbtree1, p)
unlock(lock1)
bpf_obj_drop(p) // B
					bpf_refcount_acquire(m) // use-after-free
					...

Before this series, bpf_obj_drop returns memory to the allocator using
bpf_mem_free. At this point (B in the example) there might be some
non-owning references to that memory which the verifier believes are valid,
but where the underlying memory was reused for some other allocation.
Commit 7793fc3b ("bpf: Make bpf_refcount_acquire fallible for
non-owning refs") attempted to fix this by doing refcount_inc_non_zero
on refcount_acquire in instead of refcount_inc under the assumption that
preventing erroneous incr-on-0 would be sufficient. This isn't true,
though: refcount_inc_non_zero must *check* if the refcount is zero, and
the memory it's checking could have been reused, so the check may look
at and incr random reused bytes.

If we wait to reuse this memory until all non-owning refs that could
point to it are gone, there is no possibility of this scenario
happening. Migrating bpf_obj_drop to use bpf_mem_free_rcu for refcounted
nodes accomplishes this.

For such nodes, the validity of their underlying memory is now tied to
RCU critical section. This matches MEM_RCU trustedness
expectations, so the series takes the opportunity to more explicitly
mark this trustedness state.

The functional effects of trustedness changes here are rather small.
This is largely due to local kptrs having separate verifier handling -
with implicit trustedness assumptions - than arbitrary kptrs.
Regardless, let's take the opportunity to move towards a world where
trustedness is more explicitly handled.

Changelog:

v1 -> v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20230801203630.3581291-1-davemarchevsky@fb.com/

Patch 1 ("bpf: Ensure kptr_struct_meta is non-NULL for collection insert and refcount_acquire")
  * Spent some time experimenting with a better approach as per convo w/
    Yonghong on v1's patch. It started getting too complex, so left unchanged
    for now. Yonghong was fine with this approach being shipped.

Patch 2 ("bpf: Consider non-owning refs trusted")
  * Add Yonghong ack
Patch 3 ("bpf: Use bpf_mem_free_rcu when bpf_obj_dropping refcounted nodes")
  * Add Yonghong ack
Patch 4 ("bpf: Reenable bpf_refcount_acquire")
  * Add Yonghong ack

Patch 5 ("bpf: Consider non-owning refs to refcounted nodes RCU protected")
  * Undo a nonfunctional whitespace change that shouldn't have been included
    (Yonghong)
  * Better logging message when complaining about rcu_read_{lock,unlock} in
    rbtree cb (Alexei)
  * Don't invalidate_non_owning_refs when processing bpf_rcu_read_unlock
    (Yonghong, Alexei)

Patch 6 ("[RFC] bpf: Allow bpf_spin_{lock,unlock} in sleepable prog's RCU CS")
  * preempt_{disable,enable} in __bpf_spin_{lock,unlock} (Alexei)
    * Due to this we can consider spin_lock CS an RCU-sched read-side CS (per
      RCU/Design/Requirements/Requirements.rst). Modify in_rcu_cs accordingly.
  * no need to check for !in_rcu_cs before allowing bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}
    (Alexei)
  * RFC tag removed and renamed to "bpf: Allow bpf_spin_{lock,unlock} in
    sleepable progs"

Patch 7 ("selftests/bpf: Add tests for rbtree API interaction in sleepable progs")
  * Remove "no explicit bpf_rcu_read_lock" failure test, add similar success
    test (Alexei)

Summary of patch contents, with sub-bullets being leading questions and
comments I think are worth reviewer attention:

  * Patches 1 and 2 are moreso documententation - and
    enforcement, in patch 1's case - of existing semantics / expectations

  * Patch 3 changes bpf_obj_drop behavior for refcounted nodes such that
    their underlying memory is not reused until RCU grace period elapses
    * Perhaps it makes sense to move to mem_free_rcu for _all_
      non-owning refs in the future, not just refcounted. This might
      allow custom non-owning ref lifetime + invalidation logic to be
      entirely subsumed by MEM_RCU handling. IMO this needs a bit more
      thought and should be tackled outside of a fix series, so it's not
      attempted here.

  * Patch 4 re-enables bpf_refcount_acquire as changes in patch 3 fix
    the remaining use-after-free
    * One might expect this patch to be last in the series, or last
      before selftest changes. Patches 5 and 6 don't change
      verification or runtime behavior for existing BPF progs, though.

  * Patch 5 brings the verifier's understanding of refcounted node
    trustedness in line with Patch 4's changes

  * Patch 6 allows some bpf_spin_{lock, unlock} calls in sleepable
    progs. Marked RFC for a few reasons:
    * bpf_spin_{lock,unlock} haven't been usable in sleepable progs
      since before the introduction of bpf linked list and rbtree. As
      such this feels more like a new feature that may not belong in
      this fixes series.

  * Patch 7 adds tests

      Confirm that the following sleepable prog states fail verification:
  * bpf_rcu_read_unlock before bpf_spin_unlock
     * RCU CS will last at least as long as spin_lock CS

Also confirm that correct usage passes verification, specifically:
  * Explicit use of bpf_rcu_read_{lock, unlock} in sleepable test prog
  * Implied RCU CS due to spin_lock CS

None of the selftest progs actually attach to bpf_testmod's
bpf_testmod_test_read.

      bpf: Allow bpf_spin_{lock,unlock} in sleepable progs · 5861d1e8
      Dave Marchevsky authored 
      Commit 9e7a4d98 ("bpf: Allow LSM programs to use bpf spin locks")
disabled bpf_spin_lock usage in sleepable progs, stating:

 Sleepable LSM programs can be preempted which means that allowng spin
 locks will need more work (disabling preemption and the verifier
 ensuring that no sleepable helpers are called when a spin lock is
 held).

This patch disables preemption before grabbing bpf_spin_lock. The second
requirement above "no sleepable helpers are called when a spin lock is
held" is implicitly enforced by current verifier logic due to helper
calls in spin_lock CS being disabled except for a few exceptions, none
of which sleep.

Due to above preemption changes, bpf_spin_lock CS can also be considered
a RCU CS, so verifier's in_rcu_cs check is modified to account for this.

      bpf: Consider non-owning refs to refcounted nodes RCU protected · 0816b8c6
      Dave Marchevsky authored 
      An earlier patch in the series ensures that the underlying memory of
nodes with bpf_refcount - which can have multiple owners - is not reused
until RCU grace period has elapsed. This prevents
use-after-free with non-owning references that may point to
recently-freed memory. While RCU read lock is held, it's safe to
dereference such a non-owning ref, as by definition RCU GP couldn't have
elapsed and therefore underlying memory couldn't have been reused.

From the perspective of verifier "trustedness" non-owning refs to
refcounted nodes are now trusted only in RCU CS and therefore should no
longer pass is_trusted_reg, but rather is_rcu_reg. Let's mark them
MEM_RCU in order to reflect this new state.

      bpf: Use bpf_mem_free_rcu when bpf_obj_dropping refcounted nodes · 7e26cd12
      Dave Marchevsky authored 
      This is the final fix for the use-after-free scenario described in
commit 7793fc3b ("bpf: Make bpf_refcount_acquire fallible for
non-owning refs"). That commit, by virtue of changing
bpf_refcount_acquire's refcount_inc to a refcount_inc_not_zero, fixed
the "refcount incr on 0" splat. The not_zero check in
refcount_inc_not_zero, though, still occurs on memory that could have
been free'd and reused, so the commit didn't properly fix the root
cause.

This patch actually fixes the issue by free'ing using the recently-added
bpf_mem_free_rcu, which ensures that the memory is not reused until
RCU grace period has elapsed. If that has happened then
there are no non-owning references alive that point to the
recently-free'd memory, so it can be safely reused.

      bpf: Consider non-owning refs trusted · 2a6d50b5
      Dave Marchevsky authored 
      Recent discussions around default kptr "trustedness" led to changes such
as commit 6fcd486b ("bpf: Refactor RCU enforcement in the
verifier."). One of the conclusions of those discussions, as expressed
in code and comments in that patch, is that we'd like to move away from
'raw' PTR_TO_BTF_ID without some type flag or other register state
indicating trustedness. Although PTR_TRUSTED and PTR_UNTRUSTED flags mark
this state explicitly, the verifier currently considers trustedness
implied by other register state. For example, owning refs to graph
collection nodes must have a nonzero ref_obj_id, so they pass the
is_trusted_reg check despite having no explicit PTR_{UN}TRUSTED flag.
This patch makes trustedness of non-owning refs to graph collection
nodes explicit as well.

By definition, non-owning refs are currently trusted. Although the ref
has no control over pointee lifetime, due to non-owning ref clobbering
rules (see invalidate_non_owning_refs) dereferencing a non-owning ref is
safe in the critical section controlled by bpf_spin_lock associated with
its owning collection.

Note that the previous statement does not hold true for nodes with shared
ownership due to the use-after-free issue that this series is
addressing. True shared ownership was disabled by commit 7deca5ea
("bpf: Disable bpf_refcount_acquire kfunc calls until race conditions are fixed"),
though, so the statement holds for now. Further patches in the series will change
the trustedness state of non-owning refs before re-enabling
bpf_refcount_acquire.

Let's add NON_OWN_REF type flag to BPF_REG_TRUSTED_MODIFIERS such that a
non-owning ref reg state would pass is_trusted_reg check. Somewhat
surprisingly, this doesn't result in any change to user-visible
functionality elsewhere in the verifier: graph collection nodes are all
marked MEM_ALLOC, which tends to be handled in separate codepaths from
"raw" PTR_TO_BTF_ID. Regardless, let's be explicit here and document the
current state of things before changing it elsewhere in the series.

      bpf: Ensure kptr_struct_meta is non-NULL for collection insert and refcount_acquire · f0d991a0
      Dave Marchevsky authored 
      It's straightforward to prove that kptr_struct_meta must be non-NULL for
any valid call to these kfuncs:

  * btf_parse_struct_metas in btf.c creates a btf_struct_meta for any
    struct in user BTF with a special field (e.g. bpf_refcount,
    {rb,list}_node). These are stored in that BTF's struct_meta_tab.

  * __process_kf_arg_ptr_to_graph_node in verifier.c ensures that nodes
    have {rb,list}_node field and that it's at the correct offset.
    Similarly, check_kfunc_args ensures bpf_refcount field existence for
    node param to bpf_refcount_acquire.

  * So a btf_struct_meta must have been created for the struct type of
    node param to these kfuncs

  * That BTF and its struct_meta_tab are guaranteed to still be around.
    Any arbitrary {rb,list} node the BPF program interacts with either:
    came from bpf_obj_new or a collection removal kfunc in the same
    program, in which case the BTF is associated with the program and
    still around; or came from bpf_kptr_xchg, in which case the BTF was
    associated with the map and is still around

Instead of silently continuing with NULL struct_meta, which caused
confusing bugs such as those addressed by commit 2140a6e3 ("bpf: Set
kptr_struct_meta for node param to list and rbtree insert funcs"), let's
error out. Then, at runtime, we can confidently say that the
implementations of these kfuncs were given a non-NULL kptr_struct_meta,
meaning that special-field-specific functionality like
bpf_obj_free_fields and the bpf_obj_drop change introduced later in this
series are guaranteed to execute.

This patch doesn't change functionality, just makes it easier to reason
about existing functionality.
