      bpf: optimize hashmap lookups when key_size is divisible by 4 · 5b85575a
      Anton Protopopov authored 
      The BPF hashmap uses the jhash() hash function. There is an optimized version
of this hash function which may be used if hash size is a multiple of 4. Apply
this optimization to the hashmap in a similar way as it is done in the bloom
filter map.

On practice the optimization is only noticeable for smaller key sizes, which,
however, is sufficient for many applications. An example is listed in the
following table of measurements (a hashmap of 65536 elements was used):

      Merge branch 'Enable RCU semantics for task kptrs' · a033907e
      Alexei Starovoitov authored 
      David Vernet says:

====================

In commit 22df776a ("tasks: Extract rcu_users out of union"), the
'refcount_t rcu_users' field was extracted out of a union with the
'struct rcu_head rcu' field. This allows us to use the field for
refcounting struct task_struct with RCU protection, as the RCU callback
no longer flips rcu_users to be nonzero after the callback is scheduled.

This patch set leverages this to do a few things:

1. Marks struct task_struct as RCU safe in the verifier, allowing
   referenced kptr tasks stored in maps to be accessed in an RCU
   read region without acquiring a reference (with just a NULL check).
2. Makes bpf_task_acquire() a KF_ACQUIRE | KF_RCU | KF_RET_NULL kfunc.
3. Removes bpf_task_kptr_get() and bpf_task_acquire_not_zero(), as
   they're now redundant with the above two changes.
4. Updates selftests and documentation accordingly.

Changelog:
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230331005733.406202-1-void@manifault.com/
v1 -> v2:
- Remove testcases validating nested trust inheritance. The first
  version used 'struct task_struct __rcu *parent', but because that
  field has the __rcu tag it functions differently on gcc and llvm and
  causes gcc selftests to fail. Alexei is reworking nested trust,
  anyways so let's leave it off for now (Alexei).

      bpf: Remove now-defunct task kfuncs · f85671c6
      David Vernet authored 
      In commit 22df776a ("tasks: Extract rcu_users out of union"), the
'refcount_t rcu_users' field was extracted out of a union with the
'struct rcu_head rcu' field. This allows us to safely perform a
refcount_inc_not_zero() on task->rcu_users when acquiring a reference on
a task struct. A prior patch leveraged this by making struct task_struct
an RCU-protected object in the verifier, and by bpf_task_acquire() to
use the task->rcu_users field for synchronization.

Now that we can use RCU to protect tasks, we no longer need
bpf_task_kptr_get(), or bpf_task_acquire_not_zero(). bpf_task_kptr_get()
is truly completely unnecessary, as we can just use RCU to get the
object. bpf_task_acquire_not_zero() is now equivalent to
bpf_task_acquire().

In addition to these changes, this patch also updates the associated
selftests to no longer use these kfuncs.

      bpf: Make struct task_struct an RCU-safe type · d02c48fa
      David Vernet authored 
      struct task_struct objects are a bit interesting in terms of how their
lifetime is protected by refcounts. task structs have two refcount
fields:

1. refcount_t usage: Protects the memory backing the task struct. When
   this refcount drops to 0, the task is immediately freed, without
   waiting for an RCU grace period to elapse. This is the field that
   most callers in the kernel currently use to ensure that a task
   remains valid while it's being referenced, and is what's currently
   tracked with bpf_task_acquire() and bpf_task_release().

2. refcount_t rcu_users: A refcount field which, when it drops to 0,
   schedules an RCU callback that drops a reference held on the 'usage'
   field above (which is acquired when the task is first created). This
   field therefore provides a form of RCU protection on the task by
   ensuring that at least one 'usage' refcount will be held until an RCU
   grace period has elapsed. The qualifier "a form of" is important
   here, as a task can remain valid after task->rcu_users has dropped to
   0 and the subsequent RCU gp has elapsed.

In terms of BPF, we want to use task->rcu_users to protect tasks that
function as referenced kptrs, and to allow tasks stored as referenced
kptrs in maps to be accessed with RCU protection.

Let's first determine whether we can safely use task->rcu_users to
protect tasks stored in maps. All of the bpf_task* kfuncs can only be
called from tracepoint, struct_ops, or BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS, program
types. For tracepoint and struct_ops programs, the struct task_struct
passed to a program handler will always be trusted, so it will always be
safe to call bpf_task_acquire() with any task passed to a program.
Note, however, that we must update bpf_task_acquire() to be KF_RET_NULL,
as it is possible that the task has exited by the time the program is
invoked, even if the pointer is still currently valid because the main
kernel holds a task->usage refcount. For BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS, tasks
should never be passed as an argument to the any program handlers, so it
should not be relevant.

The second question is whether it's safe to use RCU to access a task
that was acquired with bpf_task_acquire(), and stored in a map. Because
bpf_task_acquire() now uses task->rcu_users, it follows that if the task
is present in the map, that it must have had at least one
task->rcu_users refcount by the time the current RCU cs was started.
Therefore, it's safe to access that task until the end of the current
RCU cs.

With all that said, this patch makes struct task_struct is an
RCU-protected object. In doing so, we also change bpf_task_acquire() to
be KF_ACQUIRE | KF_RCU | KF_RET_NULL, and adjust any selftests as
necessary. A subsequent patch will remove bpf_task_kptr_get(), and
bpf_task_acquire_not_zero() respectively.

This is needed to mirror it to Github to make it convenient for distro
packagers to package veristat as a separate package.

Veristat grew into a useful tool by itself, and there are already
a bunch of users relying on veristat as generic BPF loading and
verification helper tool. So making it easy to packagers by providing
Github mirror just like we do for bpftool and libbpf is the next step to
get veristat into the hands of users.

Apart from few typo fixes, I'm the sole contributor to veristat.c so
far, so no extra Acks should be needed for relicensing.

      selftests/bpf: Add testcases for ptr_*_or_null_ in bpf_kptr_xchg · 67efbd57
      David Vernet authored 
      The second argument of the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper function is
ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL. A recent patch fixed a bug whereby the
verifier would fail with an internal error message if a program invoked
the helper with a PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_MAYBE_NULL register. This testcase
adds some testcases to ensure that it fails gracefully moving forward.

Before the fix, these testcases would have failed an error resembling
the following:

      bpf: Handle PTR_MAYBE_NULL case in PTR_TO_BTF_ID helper call arg · e4c2acab
      David Vernet authored 
      When validating a helper function argument, we use check_reg_type() to
ensure that the register containing the argument is of the correct type.
When the register's base type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID, there is some
supplemental logic where we do extra checks for various combinations of
PTR_TO_BTF_ID type modifiers. For example, for PTR_TO_BTF_ID,
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_TRUSTED, and PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_RCU, we call
map_kptr_match_type() for bpf_kptr_xchg() calls, and
btf_struct_ids_match() for other helper calls.

When an unhandled PTR_TO_BTF_ID type modifier combination is passed to
check_reg_type(), the verifier fails with an internal verifier error
message. This can currently be triggered by passing a PTR_MAYBE_NULL
pointer to helper functions (currently just bpf_kptr_xchg()) with an
ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL arg type. For example, by callin
bpf_kptr_xchg(&v->kptr, bpf_cpumask_create()).

Whether or not passing a PTR_MAYBE_NULL arg to an
ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL argument is valid is an interesting question.
In a vacuum, it seems fine. A helper function with an
ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL arg would seem to be implying that it can
handle either a NULL or non-NULL arg, and has logic in place to detect
and gracefully handle each. This is the case for bpf_kptr_xchg(), which
of course simply does an xchg(). On the other hand, bpf_kptr_xchg() also
specifies OBJ_RELEASE, and refcounting semantics for a PTR_MAYBE_NULL
pointer is different than handling it for a NULL _OR_ non-NULL pointer.
For example, with a non-NULL arg, we should always fail if there was not
a nonzero refcount for the value in the register being passed to the
helper. For PTR_MAYBE_NULL on the other hand, it's unclear. If the
pointer is NULL it would be fine, but if it's not NULL, it would be
incorrect to load the program.

The current solution to this is to just fail if PTR_MAYBE_NULL is
passed, and to instead require programs to have a NULL check to
explicitly handle the NULL and non-NULL cases. This seems reasonable.
Not only would it possibly be quite complicated to correctly handle
PTR_MAYBE_NULL refcounting in the verifier, but it's also an arguably
odd programming pattern in general to not explicitly handle the NULL
case anyways. For example, it seems odd to not care about whether a
pointer you're passing to bpf_kptr_xchg() was successfully allocated in
a program such as the following:

private(MASK) static struct bpf_cpumask __kptr * global_mask;

SEC("tp_btf/task_newtask")
int BPF_PROG(example, struct task_struct *task, u64 clone_flags)
{
        struct bpf_cpumask *prev;

	/* bpf_cpumask_create() returns PTR_MAYBE_NULL */

	return 0;
}

This patch therefore updates the verifier to explicitly check for
PTR_MAYBE_NULL in check_reg_type(), and fail gracefully if it's
observed. This isn't really "fixing" anything unsafe or incorrect. We're
just updating the verifier to fail gracefully, and explicitly handle
this pattern rather than unintentionally falling back to an internal
verifier error path. A subsequent patch will update selftests.

      veristat: change guess for __sk_buff from CGROUP_SKB to SCHED_CLS · d8161295
      Andrii Nakryiko authored 
      SCHED_CLS seems to be a better option as a default guess for freplace
programs that have __sk_buff as a context type.

      selftests/bpf: Rewrite two infinite loops in bound check cases · 4ca13d10
      Xu Kuohai authored 
      The two infinite loops in bound check cases added by commit
1a3148fc ("selftests/bpf: Check when bounds are not in the 32-bit range")
increased the execution time of test_verifier from about 6 seconds to
about 9 seconds. Rewrite these two infinite loops to finite loops to get
rid of this extra time cost.

====================

Teach veristat how to deal with freplace BPF programs. As they can't be
directly loaded by veristat without custom user-space part that sets correct
target program FD, veristat always fails freplace programs. This patch set
teaches veristat to guess target program type that will be inherited by
freplace program itself, and subtitute it for BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT (freplace) one
for the purposes of BPF verification.

Patch #1 fixes bug in libbpf preventing overriding freplace with specific
program type.

Patch #2 adds convenient -d flag to request veristat to emit libbpf debug
logs. It help debugging why a specific BPF program fails to load, if the
problem is not due to BPF verification itself.

v3->v4:
  - fix optional kern_name check when guessing prog type (Alexei);
v2->v3:
  - fix bpf_obj_id selftest that uses legacy bpf_prog_test_load() helper,
    which always sets program type programmatically; teach the helper to do it
    only if actually necessary (Stanislav);
v1->v2:
  - fix compilation error reported by old GCC (my GCC v11 doesn't produce even
    a warning) and Clang (see CI failure at [0]):

GCC version:

  veristat.c: In function ‘fixup_obj’:
  veristat.c:908:1: error: label at end of compound statement
    908 | skip_freplace_fixup:
        | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clang version:

  veristat.c:909:1: error: label at end of compound statement is a C2x extension [-Werror,-Wc2x-extensions]
  }

      veristat: guess and substitue underlying program type for freplace (EXT) progs · fa7cc906
      Andrii Nakryiko authored 
      SEC("freplace") (i.e., BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT) programs are not loadable as
is through veristat, as kernel expects actual program's FD during
BPF_PROG_LOAD time, which veristat has no way of knowing.

Unfortunately, freplace programs are a pretty important class of
programs, especially when dealing with XDP chaining solutions, which
rely on EXT programs.

So let's do our best and teach veristat to try to guess the original
program type, based on program's context argument type. And if guessing
process succeeds, we manually override freplace/EXT with guessed program
type using bpf_program__set_type() setter to increase chances of proper
BPF verification.

We rely on BTF and maintain a simple lookup table. This process is
obviously not 100% bulletproof, as valid program might not use context
and thus wouldn't have to specify correct type. Also, __sk_buff is very
ambiguous and is the context type across many different program types.
We pick BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB for now, which seems to work fine in
practice so far. Similarly, some program types require specifying attach
type, and so we pick one out of possible few variants.

Best effort at its best. But this makes veristat even more widely
applicable.

      libbpf: disassociate section handler on explicit bpf_program__set_type() call · d6e6286a
      Andrii Nakryiko authored 
      If user explicitly overrides programs's type with
bpf_program__set_type() API call, we need to disassociate whatever
SEC_DEF handler libbpf determined initially based on program's SEC()
definition, as it's not goind to be valid anymore and could lead to
crashes and/or confusing failures.

Also, fix up bpf_prog_test_load() helper in selftests/bpf, which is
force-setting program type (even if that's completely unnecessary; this
is quite a legacy piece of code), and thus should expect auto-attach to
not work, yet one of the tests explicitly relies on auto-attach for
testing.

Instead, force-set program type only if it differs from the desired one.

====================

This series allow BPF TCP CCs 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 of struct tcp_sock. Until now,
a BPF CC doesn't have write access to this member of struct
tcp_sock.

v2:
 - Merge the test of writing app_limited into the test of
   writing sk_pacing. (Martin KaFai Lau)
