      Merge branch 'bpf: Add user-space-publisher ring buffer map type' · c12a0376
      Andrii Nakryiko authored 
      David Vernet says:

====================
This patch set defines a new map type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF, which
provides single-user-space-producer / single-kernel-consumer semantics over
a ring buffer.  Along with the new map type, a helper function called
bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() is added which allows a BPF program to specify a
callback with the following signature, to which samples are posted by the
helper:

void (struct bpf_dynptr *dynptr, void *context);

The program can then use the bpf_dynptr_read() or bpf_dynptr_data() helper
functions to safely read the sample from the dynptr. There are currently no
helpers available to determine the size of the sample, but one could easily
be added if required.

On the user-space side, libbpf has been updated to export a new
'struct ring_buffer_user' type, along with the following symbols:

struct ring_buffer_user *
ring_buffer_user__new(int map_fd,
                      const struct ring_buffer_user_opts *opts);
void ring_buffer_user__free(struct ring_buffer_user *rb);
void *ring_buffer_user__reserve(struct ring_buffer_user *rb,
				uint32_t size);
void *ring_buffer_user__poll(struct ring_buffer_user *rb, uint32_t size,
			     int timeout_ms);
void ring_buffer_user__discard(struct ring_buffer_user *rb, void *sample);
void ring_buffer_user__submit(struct ring_buffer_user *rb, void *sample);

These symbols are exported for inclusion in libbpf version 1.0.0.

v5 -> v6:
- Fixed s/BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF/BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF typo in the
  libbpf user ringbuf doxygen header comment for ring_buffer_user__new()
  (Andrii).
- Specify that pointer returned from ring_buffer_user__reserve() and its
  blocking counterpart is 8-byte aligned (Andrii).
- Renamed user_ringbuf__commit() to user_ringbuf_commit(), as it's static
  (Andrii).
- Another slight reworking of user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking() to
  remove some extraneous nanosecond variables + checking (Andrii).
- Add a final check of user_ring_buffer__reserve() in
  user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking().
- Moved busy bit lock / unlock logic from __bpf_user_ringbuf_peek() to
  bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() (Andrii).
- -ENOSPC -> -ENODATA for an empty ring buffer in
  __bpf_user_ringbuf_peek() (Andrii).
- Updated BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP to only force a wakeup notification to be
  sent if even if no sample was drained.
- Changed a bit of the wording in the UAPI header for
  bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() to mention the BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP behavior.
- Remove extra space after return in ringbuf_map_poll_user() (Andrii).
- Removed now-extraneous paragraph from the commit summary of patch 2/4
  (Andrii).
v4 -> v5:
- DENYLISTed the user-ringbuf test suite on s390x. We have a number of
  functions in the progs/user_ringbuf_success.c prog that user-space
  fires by invoking a syscall. Not all of these syscalls are available
  on s390x. If and when we add the ability to kick the kernel from
  user-space, or if we end up using iterators for that per Hao's
  suggestion, we could re-enable this test suite on s390x.
- Fixed a few more places that needed ringbuffer -> ring buffer.
v3 -> v4:
- Update BPF_MAX_USER_RINGBUF_SAMPLES to not specify a bit, and instead
  just specify a number of samples. (Andrii)
- Update "ringbuffer" in comments and commit summaries to say "ring
  buffer". (Andrii)
- Return -E2BIG from bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() both when a sample can't
  fit into the ring buffer, and when it can't fit into a dynptr. (Andrii)
- Don't loop over samples in __bpf_user_ringbuf_peek() if a sample was
  discarded. Instead, return -EAGAIN so the caller can deal with it. Also
  updated the caller to detect -EAGAIN and skip over it when iterating.
  (Andrii)
- Removed the heuristic for notifying user-space when a sample is drained,
  causing the ring buffer to no longer be full. This may be useful in the
  future, but is being removed now because it's strictly a heuristic.
- Re-add BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP flag to bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(). (Andrii)
- Remove helper_allocated_dynptr tracker from verifier. (Andrii)
- Add libbpf function header comments to tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.h, so that
  they will be included in rendered libbpf docs. (Andrii)
- Add symbols to a new LIBBPF_1.1.0 section in linker version script,
  rather than including them in LIBBPF_1.0.0. (Andrii)
- Remove libbpf_err() calls from static libbpf functions. (Andrii)
- Check user_ring_buffer_opts instead of ring_buffer_opts in
  user_ring_buffer__new(). (Andrii)
- Avoid an extra if in the hot path in user_ringbuf__commit(). (Andrii)
- Use ENOSPC rather than ENODATA if no space is available in the ring
  buffer. (Andrii)
- Don't round sample size in header to 8, but still round size that is
  reserved and written to 8, and validate positions are multiples of 8
  (Andrii).
- Use nanoseconds for most calculations in
  user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking(). (Andrii)
- Don't use CHECK() in testcases, instead use ASSERT_*. (Andrii)
- Use SEC("?raw_tp") instead of SEC("?raw_tp/sys_nanosleep") in negative
  test. (Andrii)
- Move test_user_ringbuf.h header to live next to BPF program instead of
  a directory up from both it and the user-space test program. (Andrii)
- Update bpftool help message / docs to also include user_ringbuf.
v2 -> v3:
- Lots of formatting fixes, such as keeping things on one line if they fit
  within 100 characters, and removing some extraneous newlines. Applies
  to all diffs in the patch-set. (Andrii)
- Renamed ring_buffer_user__* symbols to user_ring_buffer__*. (Andrii)
- Added a missing smb_mb__before_atomic() in
  __bpf_user_ringbuf_sample_release(). (Hao)
- Restructure how and when notification events are sent from the kernel to
  the user-space producers via the .map_poll() callback for the
  BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF map. Before, we only sent a notification when
  the ringbuffer was fully drained. Now, we guarantee user-space that
  we'll send an event at least once per bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(), as long
  as at least one sample was drained, and BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP was not passed.
  As a heuristic, we also send a notification event any time a sample being
  drained causes the ringbuffer to no longer be full. (Andrii)
- Continuing on the above point, updated
  user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking() to loop around epoll_wait() until a
  sufficiently large sample is found. (Andrii)
- Communicate BPF_RINGBUF_BUSY_BIT and BPF_RINGBUF_DISCARD_BIT in sample
  headers. The ringbuffer implementation still only supports
  single-producer semantics, but we can now add synchronization support in
  user_ring_buffer__reserve(), and will automatically get multi-producer
  semantics. (Andrii)
- Updated some commit summaries, specifically adding more details where
  warranted. (Andrii)
- Improved function documentation for bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(), more
  clearly explaining all function arguments and return types, as well as
  the semantics for waking up user-space producers.
- Add function header comments for user_ring_buffer__reserve{_blocking}().
  (Andrii)
- Rounding-up all samples to 8-bytes in the user-space producer, and
  enforcing that all samples are properly aligned in the kernel. (Andrii)
- Added testcases that verify that bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() properly
  validates samples, and returns error conditions if any invalid samples
  are encountered. (Andrii)
- Move atomic_t busy field out of the consumer page, and into the
  struct bpf_ringbuf. (Andrii)
- Split ringbuf_map_{mmap, poll}_{kern, user}() into separate
  implementations. (Andrii)
- Don't silently consume errors in bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(). (Andrii)
- Remove magic number of samples (4096) from bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(),
  and instead use BPF_MAX_USER_RINGBUF_SAMPLES macro, which allows
  128k samples. (Andrii)
- Remove MEM_ALLOC modifier from PTR_TO_DYNPTR register in verifier, and
  instead rely solely on the register being PTR_TO_DYNPTR. (Andrii)
- Move freeing of atomic_t busy bit to before we invoke irq_work_queue() in
  __bpf_user_ringbuf_sample_release(). (Andrii)
- Only check for BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP flag in bpf_ringbuf_drain().
- Remove libbpf function names from kernel smp_{load, store}* comments in
  the kernel. (Andrii)
- Don't use double-underscore naming convention in libbpf functions.
  (Andrii)
- Use proper __u32 and __u64 for types where we need to guarantee their
  size. (Andrii)

v1 -> v2:
- Following Joanne landing 88374342 ("bpf: Fix ref_obj_id for dynptr
  data slices in verifier") [0], removed [PATCH 1/5] bpf: Clear callee
  saved regs after updating REG0 [1]. (Joanne)
- Following the above adjustment, updated check_helper_call() to not store
  a reference for bpf_dynptr_data() if the register containing the dynptr
  is of type MEM_ALLOC. (Joanne)
- Fixed casting issue pointed out by kernel test robot by adding a missing
  (uintptr_t) cast. (lkp)

      bpf: Add libbpf logic for user-space ring buffer · b66ccae0
      David Vernet authored 
      Now that all of the logic is in place in the kernel to support user-space
produced ring buffers, we can add the user-space logic to libbpf. This
patch therefore adds the following public symbols to libbpf:

struct user_ring_buffer *
user_ring_buffer__new(int map_fd,
		      const struct user_ring_buffer_opts *opts);
void *user_ring_buffer__reserve(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, __u32 size);
void *user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking(struct user_ring_buffer *rb,
                                         __u32 size, int timeout_ms);
void user_ring_buffer__submit(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, void *sample);
void user_ring_buffer__discard(struct user_ring_buffer *rb,
void user_ring_buffer__free(struct user_ring_buffer *rb);

A user-space producer must first create a struct user_ring_buffer * object
with user_ring_buffer__new(), and can then reserve samples in the
ring buffer using one of the following two symbols:

void *user_ring_buffer__reserve(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, __u32 size);
void *user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking(struct user_ring_buffer *rb,
                                         __u32 size, int timeout_ms);

With user_ring_buffer__reserve(), a pointer to a 'size' region of the ring
buffer will be returned if sufficient space is available in the buffer.
user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking() provides similar semantics, but will
block for up to 'timeout_ms' in epoll_wait if there is insufficient space
in the buffer. This function has the guarantee from the kernel that it will
receive at least one event-notification per invocation to
bpf_ringbuf_drain(), provided that at least one sample is drained, and the
BPF program did not pass the BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP flag to bpf_ringbuf_drain().

Once a sample is reserved, it must either be committed to the ring buffer
with user_ring_buffer__submit(), or discarded with
user_ring_buffer__discard().

      bpf: Add bpf_user_ringbuf_drain() helper · 20571567
      David Vernet authored 
      In a prior change, we added a new BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF map type which
will allow user-space applications to publish messages to a ring buffer
that is consumed by a BPF program in kernel-space. In order for this
map-type to be useful, it will require a BPF helper function that BPF
programs can invoke to drain samples from the ring buffer, and invoke
callbacks on those samples. This change adds that capability via a new BPF
helper function:

bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(struct bpf_map *map, void *callback_fn, void *ctx,
                       u64 flags)

BPF programs may invoke this function to run callback_fn() on a series of
samples in the ring buffer. callback_fn() has the following signature:

long callback_fn(struct bpf_dynptr *dynptr, void *context);

Samples are provided to the callback in the form of struct bpf_dynptr *'s,
which the program can read using BPF helper functions for querying
struct bpf_dynptr's.

In order to support bpf_ringbuf_drain(), a new PTR_TO_DYNPTR register
type is added to the verifier to reflect a dynptr that was allocated by
a helper function and passed to a BPF program. Unlike PTR_TO_STACK
dynptrs which are allocated on the stack by a BPF program, PTR_TO_DYNPTR
dynptrs need not use reference tracking, as the BPF helper is trusted to
properly free the dynptr before returning. The verifier currently only
supports PTR_TO_DYNPTR registers that are also DYNPTR_TYPE_LOCAL.

Note that while the corresponding user-space libbpf logic will be added
in a subsequent patch, this patch does contain an implementation of the
.map_poll() callback for BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF maps. This
.map_poll() callback guarantees that an epoll-waiting user-space
producer will receive at least one event notification whenever at least
one sample is drained in an invocation of bpf_user_ringbuf_drain(),
provided that the function is not invoked with the BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP
flag. If the BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP flag is provided, a wakeup
notification is sent even if no sample was drained.

      bpf: Define new BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF map type · 583c1f42
      David Vernet authored 
      We want to support a ringbuf map type where samples are published from
user-space, to be consumed by BPF programs. BPF currently supports a
kernel -> user-space circular ring buffer via the BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF
map type.  We'll need to define a new map type for user-space -> kernel,
as none of the helpers exported for BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF will apply
to a user-space producer ring buffer, and we'll want to add one or
more helper functions that would not apply for a kernel-producer
ring buffer.

This patch therefore adds a new BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF map type
definition. The map type is useless in its current form, as there is no
way to access or use it for anything until we one or more BPF helpers. A
follow-on patch will therefore add a new helper function that allows BPF
programs to run callbacks on samples that are published to the ring
buffer.

      bpf: Add verifier check for BPF_PTR_POISON retval and arg · 47e34cb7
      Dave Marchevsky authored 
      BPF_PTR_POISON was added in commit c0a5a21c ("bpf: Allow storing
referenced kptr in map") to denote a bpf_func_proto btf_id which the
verifier will replace with a dynamically-determined btf_id at verification
time.

This patch adds verifier 'poison' functionality to BPF_PTR_POISON in
order to prepare for expanded use of the value to poison ret- and
arg-btf_id in ongoing work, namely rbtree and linked list patchsets
[0, 1]. Specifically, when the verifier checks helper calls, it assumes
that BPF_PTR_POISON'ed ret type will be replaced with a valid type before
- or in lieu of - the default ret_btf_id logic. Similarly for arg btf_id.

If poisoned btf_id reaches default handling block for either, consider
this a verifier internal error and fail verification. Otherwise a helper
w/ poisoned btf_id but no verifier logic replacing the type will cause a
crash as the invalid pointer is dereferenced.

Also move BPF_PTR_POISON to existing include/linux/posion.h header and
remove unnecessary shift.
