Converting bpf_insn_successors() to use lookup table makes it ~1.5
times faster.
Also remove unnecessary conditionals:
- `idx + 1 < prog->len` is unnecessary because after check_cfg() all
jump targets are guaranteed to be within a program;
- `i == 0 || succ[0] != dst` is unnecessary because any client of
bpf_insn_successors() can handle duplicate edges:
- compute_live_registers()
- compute_scc()
Moving bpf_insn_successors() to liveness.c allows its inlining in
liveness.c:__update_stack_liveness().
Such inlining speeds up __update_stack_liveness() by ~40%.
bpf_insn_successors() is used in both verifier.c and liveness.c.
perf shows such move does not negatively impact users in verifier.c,
as these are executed only once before main varification pass.
Unlike __update_stack_liveness() which can be triggered multiple
times.

Unlike the new algorithm, register chain based liveness tracking is
fully path sensitive, and thus should be strictly more accurate.
Validate the new algorithm by signaling an error whenever it considers
a stack slot dead while the old algorithm considers it alive.

Allocate analysis instance:
- Add bpf_stack_liveness_{init,free}() calls to bpf_check().
Notify the instance about any stack reads and writes:
- Add bpf_mark_stack_write() call at every location where
REG_LIVE_WRITTEN is recorded for a stack slot.
- Add bpf_mark_stack_read() call at every location mark_reg_read() is
called.
- Both bpf_mark_stack_{read,write}() rely on
env->liveness->cur_instance callchain being in sync with
env->cur_state. It is possible to update env->liveness->cur_instance
every time a mark read/write is called, but that costs a hash table
lookup and is noticeable in the performance profile. Hence, manually
reset env->liveness->cur_instance whenever the verifier changes
env->cur_state call stack:
- call bpf_reset_live_stack_callchain() when the verifier enters a
subprogram;
- call bpf_update_live_stack() when the verifier exits a subprogram
(it implies the reset).
Make sure bpf_update_live_stack() is called for a callchain before
issuing liveness queries. And make sure that bpf_update_live_stack()
is called for any callee callchain first:
- Add bpf_update_live_stack() call at every location that processes
BPF_EXIT:
- exit from a subprogram;
- before pop_stack() call.
This makes sure that bpf_update_live_stack() is called for callee
callchains before caller callchains.
Make sure must_write marks are set to zero for instructions that
do not always access the stack:
- Wrap do_check_insn() with bpf_reset_stack_write_marks() /
bpf_commit_stack_write_marks() calls.
Any calls to bpf_mark_stack_write() are accumulated between this
pair of calls. If no bpf_mark_stack_write() calls were made
it means that the instruction does not access stack (at-least
on the current verification path) and it is important to record
this fact.
Finally, use bpf_live_stack_query_init() / bpf_stack_slot_alive()
to query stack liveness info.
The manual tracking of the correct order for callee/caller
bpf_update_live_stack() calls is a bit convoluted and may warrant some
automation in future revisions.

This commit adds a flow-sensitive, context-sensitive, path-insensitive
data flow analysis for live stack slots:
- flow-sensitive: uses program control flow graph to compute data flow
values;
- context-sensitive: collects data flow values for each possible call
chain in a program;
- path-insensitive: does not distinguish between separate control flow
graph paths reaching the same instruction.
Compared to the current path-sensitive analysis, this approach trades
some precision for not having to enumerate every path in the program.
This gives a theoretical capability to run the analysis before main
verification pass. See cover letter for motivation.
The basic idea is as follows:
- Data flow values indicate stack slots that might be read and stack
slots that are definitely written.
- Data flow values are collected for each
(call chain, instruction number) combination in the program.
- Within a subprogram, data flow values are propagated using control
flow graph.
- Data flow values are transferred from entry instructions of callee
subprograms to call sites in caller subprograms.
In other words, a tree of all possible call chains is constructed.
Each node of this tree represents a subprogram. Read and write marks
are collected for each instruction of each node. Live stack slots are
first computed for lower level nodes. Then, information about outer
stack slots that might be read or are definitely written by a
subprogram is propagated one level up, to the corresponding call
instructions of the upper nodes. Procedure repeats until root node is
processed.
In the absence of value range analysis, stack read/write marks are
collected during main verification pass, and data flow computation is
triggered each time verifier.c:states_equal() needs to query the
information.
Implementation details are documented in kernel/bpf/liveness.c.
Quantitative data about verification performance changes and memory
consumption is in the cover letter.

The next patch would require doing postorder traversal of individual
subprograms. Facilitate this by moving env->cfg.insn_postorder
computation from check_cfg() to a separate pass, as check_cfg()
descends into called subprograms (and it needs to, because of
merge_callee_effects() logic).
env->cfg.insn_postorder is used only by compute_live_registers(),
this function does not track cross subprogram dependencies,
thus the change does not affect it's operation.

Currently only array maps are supported, but the implementation can be

This is required for BPF signing, enabling a trusted loader program to
verify a map's integrity. The loader retrieves

The current hash used for this is SHA1, which is prone to collisions.
This patch uses SHA256, which is more resilient against
collisions. This new hash is stored in bpf_prog and used by the verifier
to determine if a program can access a given exclusive map.
The original 64-bit tags are kept, as they are used by users as a short,

Currently, KF_RCU_PROTECTED only applies to iterator APIs and that too
in a convoluted fashion: the presence of this flag on the kfunc is used
to set MEM_RCU in iterator type, and the lack of RCU protection results
in an error only later, once next() or destroy() methods are invoked on
the iterator. While there is no bug, this is certainly a bit
unintuitive, and makes the enforcement of the flag iterator specific.
In the interest of making this flag useful for other upcoming kfuncs,
e.g. scx_bpf_cpu_curr() [0][1], add enforcement for invoking the kfunc
in an RCU critical section in general.
This would also mean that iterator APIs using KF_RCU_PROTECTED will
error out earlier, instead of throwing an error for lack of RCU CS
protection when next() or destroy() methods are invoked.
In addition to this, if the kfuncs tagged KF_RCU_PROTECTED return a
pointer value, ensure that this pointer value is only usable in an RCU
critical section. There might be edge cases where the return value is
special and doesn't need to imply MEM_RCU semantics, but in general, the
assumption should hold for the majority of kfuncs, and we can revisit
things if necessary later.

Syzbot generated a program that triggers a verifier_bug() call in
maybe_exit_scc(). maybe_exit_scc() assumes that, when called for a
state with insn_idx in some SCC, there should be an instance of struct
bpf_scc_visit allocated for that SCC. Turns out the assumption does
not hold for speculative execution paths. See example in the next
patch.
maybe_scc_exit() is called from update_branch_counts() for states that
reach branch count of zero, meaning that path exploration for a
particular path is finished. Path exploration can finish in one of
three ways:
a. Verification error is found. In this case, update_branch_counts()
is called only for non-speculative paths.
b. Top level BPF_EXIT is reached. Such instructions are never a part of
an SCC, so compute_scc_callchain() in maybe_scc_exit() will return
false, and maybe_scc_exit() will return early.
c. A checkpoint is reached and matched. Checkpoints are created by
is_state_visited(), which calls maybe_enter_scc(), which allocates
bpf_scc_visit instances for checkpoints within SCCs.
Hence, for non-speculative symbolic execution paths, the assumption
still holds: if maybe_scc_exit() is called for a state within an SCC,
bpf_scc_visit instance must exist.
This patch removes the verifier_bug() call for speculative paths.

allocated at (1) will be freed at (3). However, at (2) this pointer

by verifier.c:bpf_check() on both happy and error paths.
Thus, leading to double-free.
Fix this by removing vfree() call at (3), ownership over `new_data` is

The bpf_cgroup_from_id kfunc relies on cgroup_get_from_id to obtain the
cgroup corresponding to a given cgroup ID. This helper can be called in
a lot of contexts where the current thread can be random. A recent
example was its use in sched_ext's ops.tick(), to obtain the root cgroup
pointer. Since the current task can be whatever random user space task
preempted by the timer tick, this makes the behavior of the helper
unreliable.
Refactor out __cgroup_get_from_id as the non-namespace aware version of
cgroup_get_from_id, and change bpf_cgroup_from_id to make use of it.
There is no compatibility breakage here, since changing the namespace
against which the lookup is being done to the root cgroup namespace only
permits a wider set of lookups to succeed now. The cgroup IDs across
namespaces are globally unique, and thus don't need to be retranslated.

We have also run into other similar variants (both internally and on

As suggested by Shakeel, fix this by using __GFP_HIGH instead of
GFP_ATOMIC in __bpf_async_init(), so that e.g. if try_charge_memcg()
raises an MEMCG_MAX event, we call __memcg_memory_event() with

Currently, out of all 3 types of waiters in the rqspinlock slow path
(i.e., pending bit waiter, wait queue head waiter, and wait queue
non-head waiter), only the pending bit waiter and wait queue head
waiters apply deadlock checks and a timeout on their waiting loop. The
assumption here was that the wait queue head's forward progress would be
sufficient to identify cases where the lock owner or pending bit waiter
is stuck, and non-head waiters relying on the head waiter would prove to
be sufficient for their own forward progress.
However, the head waiter itself can be preempted by a non-head waiter
for the same lock (AA) or a different lock (ABBA) in a manner that
impedes its forward progress. In such a case, non-head waiters not
performing deadlock and timeout checks becomes insufficient, and the
system can enter a state of lockup.
This is typically not a concern with non-NMI lock acquisitions, as lock
holders which in run in different contexts (IRQ, non-IRQ) use "irqsave"
variants of the lock APIs, which naturally excludes such lock holders
from preempting one another on the same CPU.
It might seem likely that a similar case may occur for rqspinlock when
programs are attached to contention tracepoints (begin, end), however,
these tracepoints either precede the enqueue into the wait queue, or
succeed it, therefore cannot be used to preempt a head waiter's waiting
loop.
We must still be careful against nested kprobe and fentry programs that
may attach to the middle of the head's waiting loop to stall forward
progress and invoke another rqspinlock acquisition that proceeds as a
non-head waiter. To this end, drop CC_FLAGS_FTRACE from the rqspinlock.o
object file.
For now, this issue is resolved by falling back to a repeated trylock on
the lock word from NMI context, while performing the deadlock checks to
break out early in case forward progress is impossible, and use the
timeout as a final fallback.
A more involved fix to terminate the queue when such a condition occurs
will be made as a follow up. A selftest to stress this aspect of nested
NMI/non-NMI locking attempts will be added in a subsequent patch to the
bpf-next tree when this fix lands and trees are synchronized.

bpf_strnstr() should not treat the ending '\0' of s2 as a matching character
if the parameter 'len' equal to s2 string length, for example:
1. bpf_strnstr("openat", "open", 4) = -ENOENT
2. bpf_strnstr("openat", "open", 5) = 0
This patch makes (1) return 0, fix just the `len == strlen(s2)` case.
And fix a more general case when s2 is a suffix of the first len
characters of s1.

Stanislav reported that in bpf_crypto_crypt() the destination dynptr's
size is not validated to be at least as large as the source dynptr's
size before calling into the crypto backend with 'len = src_len'. This
can result in an OOB write when the destination is smaller than the
source.
Concretely, in mentioned function, psrc and pdst are both linear
buffers fetched from each dynptr:
psrc = __bpf_dynptr_data(src, src_len);
[...]
pdst = __bpf_dynptr_data_rw(dst, dst_len);
[...]
err = decrypt ?
ctx->type->decrypt(ctx->tfm, psrc, pdst, src_len, piv) :
ctx->type->encrypt(ctx->tfm, psrc, pdst, src_len, piv);
The crypto backend expects pdst to be large enough with a src_len length
that can be written. Add an additional src_len > dst_len check and bail
out if it's the case. Note that these kfuncs are accessible under root
privileges only.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

In the following toy program (reg states minimized for readability), R0
and R1 always have different values at instruction 6. This is obvious
when reading the program but cannot be guessed from ranges alone as
they overlap (R0 in [0; 0xc0000000], R1 in [1024; 0xc0000400]).
0: call bpf_get_prandom_u32#7 ; R0_w=scalar()
1: w0 = w0 ; R0_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0xffffffff))
2: r0 >>= 30 ; R0_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0x3))
3: r0 <<= 30 ; R0_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0xc0000000))
4: r1 = r0 ; R1_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0xc0000000))
5: r1 += 1024 ; R1_w=scalar(var_off=(0x400; 0xc0000000))
6: if r1 != r0 goto pc+1
Looking at tnums however, we can deduce that R1 is always different from
R0 because their tnums don't agree on known bits. This patch uses this
logic to improve is_scalar_branch_taken in case of BPF_JEQ and BPF_JNE.
This change has a tiny impact on complexity, which was measured with
the Cilium complexity CI test. That test covers 72 programs with
various build and load time configurations for a total of 970 test
cases. For 80% of test cases, the patch has no impact. On the other
test cases, the patch decreases complexity by only 0.08% on average. In
the best case, the verifier needs to walk 3% less instructions and, in
the worst case, 1.5% more. Overall, the patch has a small positive
impact, especially for our largest programs.

Add a dynptr type, similar to skb dynptr, but for the skb metadata access.
The dynptr provides an alternative to __sk_buff->data_meta for accessing
the custom metadata area allocated using the bpf_xdp_adjust_meta() helper.
More importantly, it abstracts away the fact where the storage for the
custom metadata lives, which opens up the way to persist the metadata by
relocating it as the skb travels through the network stack layers.
Writes to skb metadata invalidate any existing skb payload and metadata
slices. While this is more restrictive that needed at the moment, it leaves
the door open to reallocating the metadata on writes, and should be only a
minor inconvenience to the users.
Only the program types which can access __sk_buff->data_meta today are
allowed to create a dynptr for skb metadata at the moment. We need to
modify the network stack to persist the metadata across layers before
opening up access to other BPF hooks.
Once more BPF hooks gain access to skb_meta dynptr, we will also need to
add a read-only variant of the helper similar to
bpf_dynptr_from_skb_rdonly.
skb_meta dynptr ops are stubbed out and implemented by subsequent changes.

When running an XDP bpf_prog on the remote CPU in cpumap code
then we must disable the direct return optimization that
xdp_return can perform for mem_type page_pool. This optimization
assumes code is still executing under RX-NAPI of the original
receiving CPU, which isn't true on this remote CPU.
The cpumap code already disabled this via helpers
xdp_set_return_frame_no_direct() and xdp_clear_return_frame_no_direct(),
but the scope didn't include xdp_do_flush().
When doing XDP_REDIRECT towards e.g devmap this causes the
function bq_xmit_all() to run with direct return optimization
enabled. This can lead to hard to find bugs. The issue
only happens when bq_xmit_all() cannot ndo_xdp_xmit all
frames and them frees them via xdp_return_frame_rx_napi().
Fix by expanding scope to include xdp_do_flush(). This was found
by Dragos Tatulea.

memory for env->insn_aux_data for each patch as follows:
struct bpf_prog *bpf_patch_insn_data(env, ...)

memcpy(new_data, env->insn_aux_data);
vfree(env->insn_aux_data);
env->insn_aux_data = new_data;
...
}
The vzalloc/vfree pair is hot in perf report collected for e.g.
pyperf180 test case. It can be replaced with a call to vrealloc in
order to reduce the number of actual memory allocations.
This is a stop-gap solution, as bpf_patch_insn_data is still hot in

Lonial reported that an out-of-bounds access in cgroup local storage
can be crafted via tail calls. Given two programs each utilizing a
cgroup local storage with a different value size, and one program
doing a tail call into the other. The verifier will validate each of
the indivial programs just fine. However, in the runtime context
the bpf_cg_run_ctx holds an bpf_prog_array_item which contains the
BPF program as well as any cgroup local storage flavor the program
uses. Helpers such as bpf_get_local_storage() pick this up from the
runtime context:
ctx = container_of(current->bpf_ctx, struct bpf_cg_run_ctx, run_ctx);
storage = ctx->prog_item->cgroup_storage[stype];
if (stype == BPF_CGROUP_STORAGE_SHARED)
ptr = &READ_ONCE(storage->buf)->data[0];
else
ptr = this_cpu_ptr(storage->percpu_buf);
For the second program which was called from the originally attached
one, this means bpf_get_local_storage() will pick up the former
program's map, not its own. With mismatching sizes, this can result
in an unintended out-of-bounds access.
To fix this issue, we need to extend bpf_map_owner with an array of
storage_cookie[] to match on i) the exact maps from the original
program if the second program was using bpf_get_local_storage(), or
ii) allow the tail call combination if the second program was not
using any of the cgroup local storage maps.
Fixes: 7d9c342789 ("bpf: Make cgroup storages shared between programs on the same cgroup")

Given this is only relevant for BPF tail call maps, it is adding up space
and penalizing other map types. We also need to extend this with further
objects to track / compare to. Therefore, lets move this out into a separate
structure and dynamically allocate it only for BPF tail call maps.

Add a cookie to BPF maps to uniquely identify BPF maps for the timespan
when the node is up. This is different to comparing a pointer or BPF map
id which could get rolled over and reused.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing.
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container).
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX.
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK.
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP.
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface.
- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB.
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users.
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque.
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once.
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code.
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel NAPI
thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread would stick
around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization.
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets.
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing.
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling.
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink.
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed.
- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries.
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM.
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister netconsole's
console when all net targets are removed. Code refactoring.
Add a number of selftests.
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
should be used for an inbound SA lookup.
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS.
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links.
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch.
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack.
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer.
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT.
Driver API

This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.17. The main focus
this cycle is on reorganizing the SHA-1 and SHA-2 code, providing
high-quality library APIs for SHA-1 and SHA-2 including HMAC support,
and establishing conventions for lib/crypto/ going forward:
- Migrate the SHA-1 and SHA-512 code (and also SHA-384 which shares
most of the SHA-512 code) into lib/crypto/. This includes both the
generic and architecture-optimized code. Greatly simplify how the
architecture-optimized code is integrated. Add an easy-to-use
library API for each SHA variant, including HMAC support. Finally,
reimplement the crypto_shash support on top of the library API.
- Apply the same reorganization to the SHA-256 code (and also SHA-224
which shares most of the SHA-256 code). This is a somewhat smaller
change, due to my earlier work on SHA-256. But this brings in all
the same additional improvements that I made for SHA-1 and SHA-512.
There are also some smaller changes:
- Move the architecture-optimized ChaCha, Poly1305, and BLAKE2s code
from arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/crypto/ to lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. For
these algorithms it's just a move, not a full reorganization yet.
- Fix the MIPS chacha-core.S to build with the clang assembler.
- Fix the Poly1305 functions to work in all contexts.
- Fix a performance regression in the x86_64 Poly1305 code.
- Clean up the x86_64 SHA-NI optimized SHA-1 assembly code.
Note that since the new organization of the SHA code is much simpler,
the diffstat of this pull request is negative, despite the addition of
new fully-documented library APIs for multiple SHA and HMAC-SHA
variants. These APIs will allow further simplifications across the
kernel as users start using them instead of the old-school crypto API.
(I've already written a lot of such conversion patches, removing over
1000 more lines of code. But most of those will target 6.18 or later.)

Commit d7f0087381 ("bpf: try harder to deduce register bounds from
different numeric domains") added a second call to __reg_deduce_bounds
in reg_bounds_sync because a single call wasn't enough to converge to a
fixed point in terms of register bounds.
With patch "bpf: Improve bounds when s64 crosses sign boundary" from
this series, Eduard noticed that calling __reg_deduce_bounds twice isn't
enough anymore to converge. The first selftest added in "selftests/bpf:
Test cross-sign 64bits range refinement" highlights the need for a third
call to __reg_deduce_bounds. After instruction 7, reg_bounds_sync
performs the following bounds deduction:
reg_bounds_sync entry: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146)
__update_reg_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146)
__reg_deduce_bounds:
__reg32_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg64_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_deduce_mixed_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,umin=umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_deduce_bounds:
__reg32_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,umin=umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg64_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_deduce_mixed_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_bound_offset: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e,var_off=(0xfffffffffffffc00; 0x3ff))
__update_reg_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e,var_off=(0xfffffffffffffc00; 0x3ff))
In particular, notice how:
1. In the first call to __reg_deduce_bounds, __reg32_deduce_bounds
learns new u32 bounds.
2. __reg64_deduce_bounds is unable to improve bounds at this point.
3. __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds derives new u64 bounds from the u32 bounds.
4. In the second call to __reg_deduce_bounds, __reg64_deduce_bounds
improves the smax and umin bounds thanks to patch "bpf: Improve
bounds when s64 crosses sign boundary" from this series.
5. Subsequent functions are unable to improve the ranges further (only
tnums). Yet, a better smin32 bound could be learned from the smin
bound.
__reg32_deduce_bounds is able to improve smin32 from smin, but for that
we need a third call to __reg_deduce_bounds.
As discussed in [1], there may be a better way to organize the deduction
rules to learn the same information with less calls to the same
functions. Such an optimization requires further analysis and is
orthogonal to the present patchset.

__reg64_deduce_bounds currently improves the s64 range using the u64
range and vice versa, but only if it doesn't cross the sign boundary.
This patch improves __reg64_deduce_bounds to cover the case where the
s64 range crosses the sign boundary but overlaps with the u64 range on
only one end. In that case, we can improve both ranges. Consider the
following example, with the s64 range crossing the sign boundary:
0 U64_MAX
| [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx u64 range xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
|xxxxx s64 range xxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxx|
0 S64_MAX S64_MIN -1
The u64 range overlaps only with positive portion of the s64 range. We
can thus derive the following new s64 and u64 ranges.
0 U64_MAX
| [xxxxxx u64 range xxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
| [xxxxxx s64 range xxxxx] |
0 S64_MAX S64_MIN -1
The same logic can probably apply to the s32/u32 ranges, but this patch
doesn't implement that change.
In addition to the selftests, the __reg64_deduce_bounds change was
also tested with Agni, the formal verification tool for the range
analysis [1].

During the bounds refinement, we improve the precision of various ranges
by looking at other ranges. Among others, we improve the following in
this order (other things happen between 1 and 2):
1. Improve u32 from s32 in __reg32_deduce_bounds.
2. Improve s/u64 from u32 in __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds.
3. Improve s/u64 from s32 in __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds.
In particular, if the s32 range forms a valid u32 range, we will use it
to improve the u32 range in __reg32_deduce_bounds. In
__reg_deduce_mixed_bounds, under the same condition, we will use the s32
range to improve the s/u64 ranges.
If at (1) we were able to learn from s32 to improve u32, we'll then be
able to use that in (2) to improve s/u64. Hence, as (3) happens under
the same precondition as (1), it won't improve s/u64 ranges further than
(1)+(2) did. Thus, we can get rid of (3).
In addition to the extensive suite of selftests for bounds refinement,
this patch was also tested with the Agni formal verification tool [1].
Additionally, Eduard mentioned:
The argument appears to be as follows:
Under precondition `(u32)reg->s32_min <= (u32)reg->s32_max`
__reg32_deduce_bounds produces:
reg->u32_min = max_t(u32, reg->s32_min, reg->u32_min);
reg->u32_max = min_t(u32, reg->s32_max, reg->u32_max);
And then first part of __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds assigns:
a. reg->umin umax= (reg->umin & ~0xffffffffULL) | max_t(u32, reg->s32_min, reg->u32_min);
b. reg->umax umin= (reg->umax & ~0xffffffffULL) | min_t(u32, reg->s32_max, reg->u32_max);
And then second part of __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds assigns:
c. reg->umin umax= (reg->umin & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_min;
d. reg->umax umin= (reg->umax & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_max;
But assignment (c) is a noop because:
max_t(u32, reg->s32_min, reg->u32_min) >= (u32)reg->s32_min
Hence RHS(a) >= RHS(c) and umin= does nothing.
Also assignment (d) is a noop because:
min_t(u32, reg->s32_max, reg->u32_max) <= (u32)reg->s32_max
Hence RHS(b) <= RHS(d) and umin= does nothing.
Plus the same reasoning for the part dealing with reg->s{min,max}_value:
e. reg->smin_value smax= (reg->smin_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | max_t(u32, reg->s32_min_value, reg->u32_min_value);
f. reg->smax_value smin= (reg->smax_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | min_t(u32, reg->s32_max_value, reg->u32_max_value);
vs
g. reg->smin_value smax= (reg->smin_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_min_value;
h. reg->smax_value smin= (reg->smax_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_max_value;
RHS(e) >= RHS(g) and RHS(f) <= RHS(h), hence smax=,smin= do nothing.
This appears to be correct.
Also, Shung-Hsi:
Beside going through the reasoning, I also played with CBMC a bit to
double check that as far as a single run of __reg_deduce_bounds() is
concerned (and that the register state matches certain handwavy
expectations), the change indeed still preserve the original behavior.

The following BPF program, simplified from a syzkaller repro, causes a
kernel warning:
r0 = *(u8 *)(r1 + 169);
exit;
With pointer field sk being at offset 168 in __sk_buff. This access is
detected as a narrower read in bpf_skb_is_valid_access because it
doesn't match offsetof(struct __sk_buff, sk). It is therefore allowed
and later proceeds to bpf_convert_ctx_access. Note that for the
"is_narrower_load" case in the convert_ctx_accesses(), the insn->off
is aligned, so the cnt may not be 0 because it matches the
offsetof(struct __sk_buff, sk) in the bpf_convert_ctx_access. However,
the target_size stays 0 and the verifier errors with a kernel warning:
verifier bug: error during ctx access conversion(1)
This patch fixes that to return a proper "invalid bpf_context access
off=X size=Y" error on the load instruction.
The same issue affects multiple other fields in context structures that
allow narrow access. Some other non-affected fields (for sk_msg,
sk_lookup, and sockopt) were also changed to use bpf_ctx_range_ptr for
consistency.
Note this syzkaller crash was reported in the "Closes" link below, which
used to be about a different bug, fixed in

BPF token as a new kind of BPF kernel object. And BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD

Syzbot reported a kernel warning due to a range invariant violation on
the following BPF program.
0: call bpf_get_netns_cookie
1: if r0 == 0 goto <exit>
2: if r0 & Oxffffffff goto <exit>
The issue is on the path where we fall through both jumps.
That path is unreachable at runtime: after insn 1, we know r0 != 0, but
with the sign extension on the jset, we would only fallthrough insn 2
if r0 == 0. Unfortunately, is_branch_taken() isn't currently able to
figure this out, so the verifier walks all branches. The verifier then
refines the register bounds using the second condition and we end
up with inconsistent bounds on this unreachable path:
1: if r0 == 0 goto <exit>
r0: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0xffffffffffffffff)
2: if r0 & 0xffffffff goto <exit>
r0 before reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0)
r0 after reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0] var_off=(0, 0)
Improving the range refinement for JSET to cover all cases is tricky. We
also don't expect many users to rely on JSET given LLVM doesn't generate
those instructions. So instead of improving the range refinement for
JSETs, Eduard suggested we forget the ranges whenever we're narrowing
tnums after a JSET. This patch implements that approach.

Also change cur_aux(env)->nospec in case do_check_insn() ever manages to

Change the warning to check the insn class (which prevents it from

In line with Eduard's suggestion, do not introduce prev_aux() because

When processing a load from a PTR_TO_BTF_ID, the verifier calculates
the type of the loaded structure field based on the load offset.
For example, given the following types:
struct foo {
struct foo *a;
int *b;
} *p;
The verifier would calculate the type of `p->a` as a pointer to
`struct foo`. However, the type of `p->b` is currently calculated as a
SCALAR_VALUE.
This commit updates the logic for processing PTR_TO_BTF_ID to instead
calculate the type of p->b as PTR_TO_MEM|MEM_RDONLY|PTR_UNTRUSTED.
This change allows further dereferencing of such pointers (using probe
memory instructions).

In preparation of figuring out the closest program that led to the
current point in the kernel, implement a function that scans through the
stack trace and finds out the closest BPF program when walking down the
stack trace.
Special care needs to be taken to skip over kernel and BPF subprog
frames. We basically scan until we find a BPF main prog frame. The
assumption is that if a program calls into us transitively, we'll
hit it along the way. If not, we end up returning NULL.
Contextually the function will be used in places where we know the
program may have called into us.
Due to reliance on arch_bpf_stack_walk(), this function only works on
x86 with CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC, arm64, and s390. Remove the warning from
arch_bpf_stack_walk as well since we call it outside bpf_throw()

Add support for a stream API to the kernel and expose related kfuncs to
BPF programs. Two streams are exposed, BPF_STDOUT and BPF_STDERR. These
can be used for printing messages that can be consumed from user space,
thus it's similar in spirit to existing trace_pipe interface.
The kernel will use the BPF_STDERR stream to notify the program of any
errors encountered at runtime. BPF programs themselves may use both
streams for writing debug messages. BPF library-like code may use
BPF_STDERR to print warnings or errors on misuse at runtime.
The implementation of a stream is as follows. Everytime a message is
emitted from the kernel (directly, or through a BPF program), a record
is allocated by bump allocating from per-cpu region backed by a page
obtained using alloc_pages_nolock(). This ensures that we can allocate
memory from any context. The eventual plan is to discard this scheme in
favor of Alexei's kmalloc_nolock() [0].
This record is then locklessly inserted into a list (llist_add()) so
that the printing side doesn't require holding any locks, and works in
any context. Each stream has a maximum capacity of 4MB of text, and each
printed message is accounted against this limit.
Messages from a program are emitted using the bpf_stream_vprintk kfunc,
which takes a stream_id argument in addition to working otherwise
similar to bpf_trace_vprintk.
The bprintf buffer helpers are extracted out to be reused for printing
the string into them before copying it into the stream, so that we can
(with the defined max limit) format a string and know its true length
before performing allocations of the stream element.
For consuming elements from a stream, we expose a bpf(2) syscall command
named BPF_PROG_STREAM_READ_BY_FD, which allows reading data from the
stream of a given prog_fd into a user space buffer. The main logic is
implemented in bpf_stream_read(). The log messages are queued in
bpf_stream::log by the bpf_stream_vprintk kfunc, and then pulled and
ordered correctly in the stream backlog.
For this purpose, we hold a lock around bpf_stream_backlog_peek(), as
llist_del_first() (if we maintained a second lockless list for the
backlog) wouldn't be safe from multiple threads anyway. Then, if we
fail to find something in the backlog log, we splice out everything from
the lockless log, and place it in the backlog log, and then return the
head of the backlog. Once the full length of the element is consumed, we
will pop it and free it.
The lockless list bpf_stream::log is a LIFO stack. Elements obtained
using a llist_del_all() operation are in LIFO order, thus would break
the chronological ordering if printed directly. Hence, this batch of
messages is first reversed. Then, it is stashed into a separate list in
the stream, i.e. the backlog_log. The head of this list is the actual
message that should always be returned to the caller. All of this is
done in bpf_stream_backlog_fill().
From the kernel side, the writing into the stream will be a bit more
involved than the typical printk. First, the kernel typically may print
a collection of messages into the stream, and parallel writers into the
stream may suffer from interleaving of messages. To ensure each group of
messages is visible atomically, we can lift the advantage of using a
lockless list for pushing in messages.
To enable this, we add a bpf_stream_stage() macro, and require kernel
users to use bpf_stream_printk statements for the passed expression to
write into the stream. Underneath the macro, we have a message staging
API, where a bpf_stream_stage object on the stack accumulates the
messages being printed into a local llist_head, and then a commit
operation splices the whole batch into the stream's lockless log list.
This is especially pertinent for rqspinlock deadlock messages printed to
program streams. After this change, we see each deadlock invocation as a
non-interleaving contiguous message without any confusion on the
reader's part, improving their user experience in debugging the fault.
While programs cannot benefit from this staged stream writing API, they
could just as well hold an rqspinlock around their print statements to
serialize messages, hence this is kept kernel-internal for now.
Overall, this infrastructure provides NMI-safe any context printing of
messages to two dedicated streams.
Later patches will add support for printing splats in case of BPF arena
page faults, rqspinlock deadlocks, and cond_break timeouts, and
integration of this facility into bpftool for dumping messages to user
space.

a temporary buffer is necessary for that.

The description of full helper calls in syzkaller [1] and the addition of
kernel warnings in commit 0df1a55afa ("bpf: Warn on internal verifier
errors") allowed syzbot to reach a verifier state that was thought to
indicate a verifier bug [2]:
12: (85) call bpf_tcp_raw_gen_syncookie_ipv4#204
verifier bug: more than one arg with ref_obj_id R2 2 2
This error can be reproduced with the program from the previous commit:
0: (b7) r2 = 20
1: (b7) r3 = 0
2: (18) r1 = 0xffff92cee3cbc600
4: (85) call bpf_ringbuf_reserve#131
5: (55) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+3
6: (bf) r1 = r0
7: (bf) r2 = r0
8: (85) call bpf_tcp_raw_gen_syncookie_ipv4#204
9: (95) exit
bpf_tcp_raw_gen_syncookie_ipv4 expects R1 and R2 to be
ARG_PTR_TO_FIXED_SIZE_MEM (with a size of at least sizeof(struct iphdr)
for R1). R0 is a ring buffer payload of 20B and therefore matches this
requirement.
The verifier reaches the check on ref_obj_id while verifying R2 and
rejects the program because the helper isn't supposed to take two
referenced arguments.
This case is a legitimate rejection and doesn't indicate a kernel bug,
so we shouldn't log it as such and shouldn't emit a kernel warning.

Commit f2362a57ae ("bpf: allow void* cast using bpf_rdonly_cast()")
added a notion of PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED type.
This simultaneously introduced a bug in jump prediction logic for
situations like below:
p = bpf_rdonly_cast(..., 0);
if (p) a(); else b();
Here verifier would wrongly predict that else branch cannot be taken.
This happens because:
- Function reg_not_null() assumes that PTR_TO_MEM w/o PTR_MAYBE_NULL
flag cannot be zero.
- The call to bpf_rdonly_cast() returns a rdonly_untrusted_mem value
w/o PTR_MAYBE_NULL flag.
Tracking of PTR_MAYBE_NULL flag for untrusted PTR_TO_MEM does not make
sense, as the main purpose of the flag is to catch null pointer access
errors. Such errors are not possible on load of PTR_UNTRUSTED values
and verifier makes sure that PTR_UNTRUSTED can't be passed to helpers
or kfuncs.
Hence, modify reg_not_null() to assume that nullness of untrusted
PTR_TO_MEM is not known.

String operations are commonly used so this exposes the most common ones
to BPF programs. For now, we limit ourselves to operations which do not
copy memory around.
Unfortunately, most in-kernel implementations assume that strings are
%NUL-terminated, which is not necessarily true, and therefore we cannot
use them directly in the BPF context. Instead, we open-code them using
__get_kernel_nofault instead of plain dereference to make them safe and
limit the strings length to XATTR_SIZE_MAX to make sure the functions
terminate. When __get_kernel_nofault fails, functions return -EFAULT.
Similarly, when the size bound is reached, the functions return -E2BIG.
In addition, we return -ERANGE when the passed strings are outside of
the kernel address space.
Note that thanks to these dynamic safety checks, no other constraints
are put on the kfunc args (they are marked with the "__ign" suffix to
skip any verifier checks for them).
All of the functions return integers, including functions which normally
(in kernel or libc) return pointers to the strings. The reason is that
since the strings are generally treated as unsafe, the pointers couldn't
be dereferenced anyways. So, instead, we return an index to the string
and let user decide what to do with it. This also nicely fits with
returning various error codes when necessary (see above).

Introduce support for `bpf_rdonly_cast(v, 0)`, which casts the value
`v` to an untyped, untrusted pointer, logically similar to a `void *`.
The memory pointed to by such a pointer is treated as read-only.
As with other untrusted pointers, memory access violations on loads
return zero instead of causing a fault.
Technically:
- The resulting pointer is represented as a register of type
`PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED` with size zero.
- Offsets within such pointers are not tracked.
- Same load instructions are allowed to have both
`PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED` and `PTR_TO_BTF_ID`
as the base pointer types.
In such cases, `bpf_insn_aux_data->ptr_type` is considered the
weaker of the two: `PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED`.
The following constraints apply to the new pointer type:
- can be used as a base for LDX instructions;
- can't be used as a base for ST/STX or atomic instructions;
- can't be used as parameter for kfuncs or helpers.
These constraints are enforced by existing handling of `MEM_RDONLY`
flag and `PTR_TO_MEM` of size zero.

Add range tracking for instruction BPF_NEG. Without this logic, a trivial

volatile bool found_value_b;
SEC("lsm.s/socket_connect")
int BPF_PROG(test_socket_connect)
{

return 0;
}
with verifier log:
"At program exit the register R0 has smin=0 smax=4294967295 should have
been in [-4095, 0]".
This is because range information is lost in BPF_NEG:
0: R1=ctx() R10=fp0
; if (!found_value_b) @ xxxx.c:24
0: (18) r1 = 0xffa00000011e7048 ; R1_w=map_value(...)

3: (a4) w0 ^= 1 ; R0_w=scalar(smin32=0,smax=255)
4: (84) w0 = -w0 ; R0_w=scalar(range info lost)
Note that, the log above is manually modified to highlight relevant bits.
Fix this by maintaining proper range information with BPF_NEG, so that
the verifier will know:
4: (84) w0 = -w0 ; R0_w=scalar(smin32=-255,smax=0)
Also updated selftests based on the expected behavior.

This patch improves the precison of the scalar(32)_min_max_add and
scalar(32)_min_max_sub functions, which update the u(32)min/u(32)_max
ranges for the BPF_ADD and BPF_SUB instructions. We discovered this more
precise operator using a technique we are developing for automatically
synthesizing functions for updating tnums and ranges.
According to the BPF ISA [1], "Underflow and overflow are allowed during
arithmetic operations, meaning the 64-bit or 32-bit value will wrap".
Our patch leverages the wrap-around semantics of unsigned overflow and
underflow to improve precision.
Below is an example of our patch for scalar_min_max_add; the idea is
analogous for all four functions.
There are three cases to consider when adding two u64 ranges [dst_umin,
dst_umax] and [src_umin, src_umax]. Consider a value x in the range
[dst_umin, dst_umax] and another value y in the range [src_umin,
src_umax].
(a) No overflow: No addition x + y overflows. This occurs when even the
largest possible sum, i.e., dst_umax + src_umax <= U64_MAX.
(b) Partial overflow: Some additions x + y overflow. This occurs when
the largest possible sum overflows (dst_umax + src_umax > U64_MAX), but
the smallest possible sum does not overflow (dst_umin + src_umin <=
U64_MAX).
(c) Full overflow: All additions x + y overflow. This occurs when both
the smallest possible sum and the largest possible sum overflow, i.e.,
both (dst_umin + src_umin) and (dst_umax + src_umax) are > U64_MAX.
The current implementation conservatively sets the output bounds to
unbounded, i.e, [umin=0, umax=U64_MAX], whenever there is *any*
possibility of overflow, i.e, in cases (b) and (c). Otherwise it
computes tight bounds as [dst_umin + src_umin, dst_umax + src_umax]:
if (check_add_overflow(*dst_umin, src_reg->umin_value, dst_umin) ||
check_add_overflow(*dst_umax, src_reg->umax_value, dst_umax)) {
*dst_umin = 0;
*dst_umax = U64_MAX;
}
Our synthesis-based technique discovered a more precise operator.
Particularly, in case (c), all possible additions x + y overflow and
wrap around according to eBPF semantics, and the computation of the
output range as [dst_umin + src_umin, dst_umax + src_umax] continues to
work. Only in case (b), do we need to set the output bounds to
unbounded, i.e., [0, U64_MAX].
Case (b) can be checked by seeing if the minimum possible sum does *not*
overflow and the maximum possible sum *does* overflow, and when that
happens, we set the output to unbounded:
min_overflow = check_add_overflow(*dst_umin, src_reg->umin_value, dst_umin);
max_overflow = check_add_overflow(*dst_umax, src_reg->umax_value, dst_umax);
if (!min_overflow && max_overflow) {
*dst_umin = 0;
*dst_umax = U64_MAX;
}
Below is an example eBPF program and the corresponding log from the
verifier.
The current implementation of scalar_min_max_add() sets r3's bounds to
[0, U64_MAX] at instruction 5: (0f) r3 += r3, due to conservative
overflow handling.
0: R1=ctx() R10=fp0
0: (b7) r4 = 0 ; R4_w=0
1: (87) r4 = -r4 ; R4_w=scalar()
2: (18) r3 = 0xa000000000000000 ; R3_w=0xa000000000000000
4: (4f) r3 |= r4 ; R3_w=scalar(smin=0xa000000000000000,smax=-1,umin=0xa000000000000000,var_off=(0xa000000000000000; 0x5fffffffffffffff)) R4_w=scalar()
5: (0f) r3 += r3 ; R3_w=scalar()
6: (b7) r0 = 1 ; R0_w=1
7: (95) exit
With our patch, r3's bounds after instruction 5 are set to a much more
precise [0x4000000000000000,0xfffffffffffffffe].
...
5: (0f) r3 += r3 ; R3_w=scalar(umin=0x4000000000000000,umax=0xfffffffffffffffe)
6: (b7) r0 = 1 ; R0_w=1
7: (95) exit
The logic for scalar32_min_max_add is analogous. For the
scalar(32)_min_max_sub functions, the reasoning is similar but applied
to detecting underflow instead of overflow.
We verified the correctness of the new implementations using Agni [3,4].
We since also discovered that a similar technique has been used to
calculate output ranges for unsigned interval addition and subtraction
in Hacker's Delight [2].

The second argument of bpf_sysctl_get_name() helper is a pointer to a
buffer that is being written to. However that isn't specify in the

Until commit 37cce22dbd ("bpf: verifier: Refactor helper access
type tracking"), all helper accesses were considered as a possible
write access by the verifier, so no big harm was done. However, since
then, the verifier might make wrong asssumption about the content of
that address which might lead it to make faulty optimizations (such as
removing code that was wrongly labeled dead). This is what happens in
test_sysctl selftest to the tests related to sysctl_get_name.

BPF_MAP_TYPE_LRU_HASH can recycle most recent elements well before the
map is full, due to percpu reservations and force shrink before
neighbor stealing. Once a CPU is unable to borrow from the global map,
it will once steal one elem from a neighbor and after that each time
flush this one element to the global list and immediately recycle it.
Batch value LOCAL_FREE_TARGET (128) will exhaust a 10K element map
with 79 CPUs. CPU 79 will observe this behavior even while its
neighbors hold 78 * 127 + 1 * 15 == 9921 free elements (99%).
CPUs need not be active concurrently. The issue can appear with
affinity migration, e.g., irqbalance. Each CPU can reserve and then
hold onto its 128 elements indefinitely.
Avoid global list exhaustion by limiting aggregate percpu caches to
half of map size, by adjusting LOCAL_FREE_TARGET based on cpu count.
This change has no effect on sufficiently large tables.
Similar to LOCAL_NR_SCANS and lru->nr_scans, introduce a map variable
lru->free_target. The extra field fits in a hole in struct bpf_lru.
The cacheline is already warm where read in the hot path. The field is
only accessed with the lru lock held.

This patch removes duplicated code.
Eduard points out [1]:
Same cleanup cycles are done in push_stack() and push_async_cb(),
both functions are only reachable from do_check_common() via
do_check() -> do_check_insn().
Hence, I think that cur state should not be freed in push_*()
functions and pop_stack() loop there is not needed.
This would also fix the 'symptom' for [2], but the issue also has a
simpler fix which was sent separately. This fix also makes sure the
push_*() callers always return an error for which
error_recoverable_with_nospec(err) is false. This is required because
otherwise we try to recover and access the stale `state`.
Moving free_verifier_state() and pop_stack(..., pop_log=false) to happen
after the bpf_vlog_reset() call in do_check_common() is fine because the
pop_stack() call that is moved does not call bpf_vlog_reset() with the
pop_log=false parameter.

This commit adds __GFP_ACCOUNT flag to verifier induced memory
allocations. The intent is to account for all allocations reachable
from BPF_PROG_LOAD command, which is needed to track verifier memory
consumption in veristat. This includes allocations done in verifier.c,
and some allocations in btf.c, functions in log.c do not allocate.
There is also a utility function bpf_memcg_flags() which selectively
adds GFP_ACCOUNT flag depending on the `cgroup.memory=nobpf` option.
As far as I understand [1], the idea is to remove bpf_prog instances
and maps from memcg accounting as these objects do not strictly belong
to cgroup, hence it should not apply here.
(btf_parse_fields() is reachable from both program load and map
creation, but allocated record is not persistent as is freed as soon
as map_check_btf() exits).

Without this, `state->speculative` is used after the cleanup cycles in
push_stack() or push_async_cb() freed `env->cur_state` (i.e., `state`).
Avoid this by relying on the short-circuit logic to only access `state`
if the error is recoverable (and make sure it never is after push_*()
failed).
push_*() callers must always return an error for which
error_recoverable_with_nospec(err) is false if push_*() returns NULL,
otherwise we try to recover and access the stale `state`. This is only
violated by sanitize_ptr_alu(), thus also fix this case to return
-ENOMEM.
state->speculative does not make sense if the error path of push_*()
ran. In that case, `state->speculative &&
error_recoverable_with_nospec(err)` as a whole should already never
evaluate to true (because all cases where push_stack() fails must return
-ENOMEM/-EFAULT). As mentioned, this is only violated by the
push_stack() call in sanitize_speculative_path() which returns -EACCES
without [1] (through REASON_STACK in sanitize_err() after
sanitize_ptr_alu()). To fix this, return -ENOMEM for REASON_STACK (which
is also the behavior we will have after [1]).
Checked that it fixes the syzbot reproducer as expected.

Current loop_entry-based exact states comparison logic does not handle
the following case:
.-> A --. Assume the states are visited in the order A, B, C.
| | | Assume that state B reaches a state equivalent to state A.
| v v At this point, state C is not processed yet, so state A
'-- B C has not received any read or precision marks from C.
As a result, these marks won't be propagated to B.
If B has incomplete marks, it is unsafe to use it in states_equal()
checks.
This commit replaces the existing logic with the following:
- Strongly connected components (SCCs) are computed over the program's
control flow graph (intraprocedurally).
- When a verifier state enters an SCC, that state is recorded as the
SCC entry point.
- When a verifier state is found equivalent to another (e.g., B to A
in the example), it is recorded as a states graph backedge.
Backedges are accumulated per SCC.
- When an SCC entry state reaches `branches == 0`, read and precision
marks are propagated through the backedges (e.g., from A to B, from
C to A, and then again from A to B).
To support nested subprogram calls, the entry state and backedge list
are associated not with the SCC itself but with an object called
`bpf_scc_callchain`. A callchain is a tuple `(callsite*, scc_id)`,
where `callsite` is the index of a call instruction for each frame
except the last.
See the comments added in `is_state_visited()` and
`compute_scc_callchain()` for more details.

This implements the core of the series and causes the verifier to fall
back to mitigating Spectre v1 using speculation barriers. The approach
was presented at LPC'24 [1] and RAID'24 [2].
If we find any forbidden behavior on a speculative path, we insert a
nospec (e.g., lfence speculation barrier on x86) before the instruction
and stop verifying the path. While verifying a speculative path, we can
furthermore stop verification of that path whenever we encounter a
nospec instruction.
A minimal example program would look as follows:
A = true
B = true
if A goto e
f()
if B goto e
unsafe()
e: exit
There are the following speculative and non-speculative paths
(`cur->speculative` and `speculative` referring to the value of the
push_stack() parameters):
- A = true
- B = true
- if A goto e
- A && !cur->speculative && !speculative
- exit
- !A && !cur->speculative && speculative
- f()
- if B goto e
- B && cur->speculative && !speculative
- exit
- !B && cur->speculative && speculative
- unsafe()
If f() contains any unsafe behavior under Spectre v1 and the unsafe
behavior matches `state->speculative &&
error_recoverable_with_nospec(err)`, do_check() will now add a nospec
before f() instead of rejecting the program:
A = true
B = true
if A goto e
nospec
f()
if B goto e
unsafe()
e: exit
Alternatively, the algorithm also takes advantage of nospec instructions
inserted for other reasons (e.g., Spectre v4). Taking the program above
as an example, speculative path exploration can stop before f() if a
nospec was inserted there because of Spectre v4 sanitization.
In this example, all instructions after the nospec are dead code (and
with the nospec they are also dead code speculatively).
For this, it relies on the fact that speculation barriers generally
prevent all later instructions from executing if the speculation was not
correct:
* On Intel x86_64, lfence acts as full speculation barrier, not only as
a load fence [3]:
An LFENCE instruction or a serializing instruction will ensure that
no later instructions execute, even speculatively, until all prior
instructions complete locally. [...] Inserting an LFENCE instruction
after a bounds check prevents later operations from executing before
the bound check completes.
This was experimentally confirmed in [4].
* On AMD x86_64, lfence is dispatch-serializing [5] (requires MSR
C001_1029[1] to be set if the MSR is supported, this happens in
init_amd()). AMD further specifies "A dispatch serializing instruction
forces the processor to retire the serializing instruction and all
previous instructions before the next instruction is executed" [8]. As
dispatch is not specific to memory loads or branches, lfence therefore
also affects all instructions there. Also, if retiring a branch means
it's PC change becomes architectural (should be), this means any
"wrong" speculation is aborted as required for this series.
* ARM's SB speculation barrier instruction also affects "any instruction
that appears later in the program order than the barrier" [6].
* PowerPC's barrier also affects all subsequent instructions [7]:
[...] executing an ori R31,R31,0 instruction ensures that all
instructions preceding the ori R31,R31,0 instruction have completed
before the ori R31,R31,0 instruction completes, and that no
subsequent instructions are initiated, even out-of-order, until
after the ori R31,R31,0 instruction completes. The ori R31,R31,0
instruction may complete before storage accesses associated with
instructions preceding the ori R31,R31,0 instruction have been
performed
Regarding the example, this implies that `if B goto e` will not execute
before `if A goto e` completes. Once `if A goto e` completes, the CPU
should find that the speculation was wrong and continue with `exit`.
If there is any other path that leads to `if B goto e` (and therefore
`unsafe()`) without going through `if A goto e`, then a nospec will
still be needed there. However, this patch assumes this other path will
be explored separately and therefore be discovered by the verifier even
if the exploration discussed here stops at the nospec.
This patch furthermore has the unfortunate consequence that Spectre v1
mitigations now only support architectures which implement BPF_NOSPEC.
Before this commit, Spectre v1 mitigations prevented exploits by
rejecting the programs on all architectures. Because some JITs do not
implement BPF_NOSPEC, this patch therefore may regress unpriv BPF's
security to a limited extent:
* The regression is limited to systems vulnerable to Spectre v1, have
unprivileged BPF enabled, and do NOT emit insns for BPF_NOSPEC. The
latter is not the case for x86 64- and 32-bit, arm64, and powerpc
64-bit and they are therefore not affected by the regression.
According to commit a6f6a95f25 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix jit to skip
speculation barrier opcode"), LoongArch is not vulnerable to Spectre
v1 and therefore also not affected by the regression.
* To the best of my knowledge this regression may therefore only affect
MIPS. This is deemed acceptable because unpriv BPF is still disabled
there by default. As stated in a previous commit, BPF_NOSPEC could be
implemented for MIPS based on GCC's speculation_barrier
implementation.
* It is unclear which other architectures (besides x86 64- and 32-bit,
ARM64, PowerPC 64-bit, LoongArch, and MIPS) supported by the kernel
are vulnerable to Spectre v1. Also, it is not clear if barriers are
available on these architectures. Implementing BPF_NOSPEC on these
architectures therefore is non-trivial. Searching GCC and the kernel
for speculation barrier implementations for these architectures
yielded no result.
* If any of those regressed systems is also vulnerable to Spectre v4,
the system was already vulnerable to Spectre v4 attacks based on
unpriv BPF before this patch and the impact is therefore further
limited.
As an alternative to regressing security, one could still reject
programs if the architecture does not emit BPF_NOSPEC (e.g., by removing
the empty BPF_NOSPEC-case from all JITs except for LoongArch where it
appears justified). However, this will cause rejections on these archs
that are likely unfounded in the vast majority of cases.
In the tests, some are now successful where we previously had a
false-positive (i.e., rejection). Change them to reflect where the
nospec should be inserted (using __xlated_unpriv) and modify the error
message if the nospec is able to mitigate a problem that previously
shadowed another problem (in that case __xlated_unpriv does not work,
therefore just add a comment).
Define SPEC_V1 to avoid duplicating this ifdef whenever we check for
nospec insns using __xlated_unpriv, define it here once. This also
improves readability. PowerPC can probably also be added here. However,
omit it for now because the BPF CI currently does not include a test.
Limit it to EPERM, EACCES, and EINVAL (and not everything except for
EFAULT and ENOMEM) as it already has the desired effect for most
real-world programs. Briefly went through all the occurrences of EPERM,
EINVAL, and EACCESS in verifier.c to validate that catching them like
this makes sense.

This changes the semantics of BPF_NOSPEC (previously a v4-only barrier)
to always emit a speculation barrier that works against both Spectre v1
AND v4. If mitigation is not needed on an architecture, the backend
should set bpf_jit_bypass_spec_v4/v1().
As of now, this commit only has the user-visible implication that unpriv
BPF's performance on PowerPC is reduced. This is the case because we
have to emit additional v1 barrier instructions for BPF_NOSPEC now.
This commit is required for a future commit to allow us to rely on
BPF_NOSPEC for Spectre v1 mitigation. As of this commit, the feature
that nospec acts as a v1 barrier is unused.
Commit f5e81d1117 ("bpf: Introduce BPF nospec instruction for
mitigating Spectre v4") noted that mitigation instructions for v1 and v4
might be different on some archs. While this would potentially offer
improved performance on PowerPC, it was dismissed after the following
considerations:
* Only having one barrier simplifies the verifier and allows us to
easily rely on v4-induced barriers for reducing the complexity of
v1-induced speculative path verification.
* For the architectures that implemented BPF_NOSPEC, only PowerPC has
distinct instructions for v1 and v4. Even there, some insns may be
shared between the barriers for v1 and v4 (e.g., 'ori 31,31,0' and
'sync'). If this is still found to impact performance in an
unacceptable way, BPF_NOSPEC can be split into BPF_NOSPEC_V1 and
BPF_NOSPEC_V4 later. As an optimization, we can already skip v1/v4
insns from being emitted for PowerPC with this setup if
bypass_spec_v1/v4 is set.
Vulnerability-status for BPF_NOSPEC-based Spectre mitigations (v4 as of
this commit, v1 in the future) is therefore:
* x86 (32-bit and 64-bit), ARM64, and PowerPC (64-bit): Mitigated - This
patch implements BPF_NOSPEC for these architectures. The previous
v4-only version was supported since commit f5e81d1117 ("bpf:
Introduce BPF nospec instruction for mitigating Spectre v4") and
commit b7540d6250 ("powerpc/bpf: Emit stf barrier instruction
sequences for BPF_NOSPEC").
* LoongArch: Not Vulnerable - Commit a6f6a95f25 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix
jit to skip speculation barrier opcode") is the only other past commit
related to BPF_NOSPEC and indicates that the insn is not required
there.
* MIPS: Vulnerable (if unprivileged BPF is enabled) -
Commit a6f6a95f2580 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix jit to skip speculation
barrier opcode") indicates that it is not vulnerable, but this
contradicts the kernel and Debian documentation. Therefore, I assume
that there exist vulnerable MIPS CPUs (but maybe not from Loongson?).
In the future, BPF_NOSPEC could be implemented for MIPS based on the
GCC speculation_barrier [1]. For now, we rely on unprivileged BPF
being disabled by default.
* Other: Unknown - To the best of my knowledge there is no definitive
information available that indicates that any other arch is
vulnerable. They are therefore left untouched (BPF_NOSPEC is not
implemented, but bypass_spec_v1/v4 is also not set).
I did the following testing to ensure the insn encoding is correct:
* ARM64:
* 'dsb nsh; isb' was successfully tested with the BPF CI in [2]
* 'sb' locally using QEMU v7.2.15 -cpu max (emitted sb insn is
executed for example with './test_progs -t verifier_array_access')
* PowerPC: The following configs were tested locally with ppc64le QEMU
v8.2 '-machine pseries -cpu POWER9':
* STF_BARRIER_EIEIO + CONFIG_PPC_BOOK32_64
* STF_BARRIER_SYNC_ORI (forced on) + CONFIG_PPC_BOOK32_64
* STF_BARRIER_FALLBACK (forced on) + CONFIG_PPC_BOOK32_64
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_EIEIO
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_SYNC_ORI (forced on)
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_FALLBACK (forced on)
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_NONE (forced on)
Most of those cobinations should not occur in practice, but I was not
able to get an PPC e6500 rootfs (for testing PPC_E500 without forcing

JITs can set bpf_jit_bypass_spec_v1/v4() if they want the verifier to
skip analysis/patching for the respective vulnerability. For v4, this
will reduce the number of barriers the verifier inserts. For v1, it
allows more programs to be accepted.
The primary motivation for this is to not regress unpriv BPF's
performance on ARM64 in a future commit where BPF_NOSPEC is also used
against Spectre v1.
This has the user-visible change that v1-induced rejections on
non-vulnerable PowerPC CPUs are avoided.
For now, this does not change the semantics of BPF_NOSPEC. It is still a
v4-only barrier and must not be implemented if bypass_spec_v4 is always
true for the arch. Changing it to a v1 AND v4-barrier is done in a
future commit.
As an alternative to bypass_spec_v1/v4, one could introduce NOSPEC_V1
AND NOSPEC_V4 instructions and allow backends to skip their lowering as
suggested by commit f5e81d1117 ("bpf: Introduce BPF nospec instruction
for mitigating Spectre v4"). Adding bpf_jit_bypass_spec_v1/v4() was
found to be preferable for the following reason:
* bypass_spec_v1/v4 benefits non-vulnerable CPUs: Always performing the
same analysis (not taking into account whether the current CPU is
vulnerable), needlessly restricts users of CPUs that are not
vulnerable. The only use case for this would be portability-testing,
but this can later be added easily when needed by allowing users to
force bypass_spec_v1/v4 to false.
* Portability is still acceptable: Directly disabling the analysis
instead of skipping the lowering of BPF_NOSPEC(_V1/V4) might allow
programs on non-vulnerable CPUs to be accepted while the program will
be rejected on vulnerable CPUs. With the fallback to speculation
barriers for Spectre v1 implemented in a future commit, this will only
affect programs that do variable stack-accesses or are very complex.
For PowerPC, the SEC_FTR checking in bpf_jit_bypass_spec_v4() is based
on the check that was previously located in the BPF_NOSPEC case.
For LoongArch, it would likely be safe to set both
bpf_jit_bypass_spec_v1() and _v4() according to
commit a6f6a95f2580 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix jit to skip speculation
barrier opcode"). This is omitted here as I am unable to do any testing
for LoongArch.
Hari's ack concerns the PowerPC part only.

This is required to catch the errors later and fall back to a nospec if
on a speculative path.
Eliminate the regs variable as it is only used once and insn_idx is not
modified in-between the definition and usage.
Do not pass insn but compute it in the function itself. As Eduard points
out [1], insn is assumed to correspond to env->insn_idx in many places
(e.g, __check_reg_arg()).
Move code into do_check_insn(), replace

When reg->type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, it can not be null. However the
verifier explores the branches under rX == 0 in check_cond_jmp_op()
even if reg->type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, because it was not checked for
in reg_not_null().
Fix this by adding CONST_PTR_TO_MAP to the set of types that are
considered non nullable in reg_not_null().
An old "unpriv: cmp map pointer with zero" selftest fails with this
change, because now early out correctly triggers in
check_cond_jmp_op(), making the verification to pass.
In practice verifier may allow pointer to null comparison in unpriv,
since in many cases the relevant branch and comparison op are removed
as dead code. So change the expected test result to __success_unpriv.

Current cgroup prog ordering is appending at attachment time. This is not
ideal. In some cases, users want specific ordering at a particular cgroup
level. To address this, the existing mprog API seems an ideal solution with
supporting BPF_F_BEFORE and BPF_F_AFTER flags.
But there are a few obstacles to directly use kernel mprog interface.
Currently cgroup bpf progs already support prog attach/detach/replace
and link-based attach/detach/replace. For example, in struct
bpf_prog_array_item, the cgroup_storage field needs to be together
with bpf prog. But the mprog API struct bpf_mprog_fp only has bpf_prog
as the member, which makes it difficult to use kernel mprog interface.
In another case, the current cgroup prog detach tries to use the
same flag as in attach. This is different from mprog kernel interface
which uses flags passed from user space.
So to avoid modifying existing behavior, I made the following changes to
support mprog API for cgroup progs:
- The support is for prog list at cgroup level. Cross-level prog list
(a.k.a. effective prog list) is not supported.
- Previously, BPF_F_PREORDER is supported only for prog attach, now
BPF_F_PREORDER is also supported by link-based attach.
- For attach, BPF_F_BEFORE/BPF_F_AFTER/BPF_F_ID/BPF_F_LINK is supported
similar to kernel mprog but with different implementation.
- For detach and replace, use the existing implementation.
- For attach, detach and replace, the revision for a particular prog
list, associated with a particular attach type, will be updated
by increasing count by 1.

As is, it appears as if pointer arithmetic is allowed for everything
except PTR_TO_{STACK,MAP_VALUE} if one only looks at
sanitize_check_bounds(). However, this is misleading as the function
only works together with retrieve_ptr_limit() and the two must be kept
in sync. This patch documents the interdependency and adds a check to
ensure they stay in sync.
adjust_ptr_min_max_vals(): Because the preceding switch returns -EACCES
for every opcode except for ADD/SUB, the sanitize_needed() following the
sanitize_check_bounds() call is always true if reached. This means,
unless sanitize_check_bounds() detected that the pointer goes OOB
because of the ADD/SUB and returns -EACCES, sanitize_ptr_alu() always
executes after sanitize_check_bounds().
The following shows that this also implies that retrieve_ptr_limit()
runs in all relevant cases.
Note that there are two calls to sanitize_ptr_alu(), these are simply
needed to easily calculate the correct alu_limit as explained in
commit 7fedb63a8307 ("bpf: Tighten speculative pointer arithmetic
mask"). The truncation-simulation is already performed on the first
call.
In the second sanitize_ptr_alu(commit_window = true), we always run
retrieve_ptr_limit(), unless:
* can_skip_alu_sanititation() is true, notably `BPF_SRC(insn->code) ==
BPF_K`. BPF_K is fine because it means that there is no scalar
register (which could be subject to speculative scalar confusion due
to Spectre v4) that goes into the ALU operation. The pointer register
can not be subject to v4-based value confusion due to the nospec
added. Thus, in this case it would have been fine to also skip
sanitize_check_bounds().
* If we are on a speculative path (`vstate->speculative`) and in the
second "commit" phase, sanitize_ptr_alu() always just returns 0. This
makes sense because there are no ALU sanitization limits to be learned
from speculative paths. Furthermore, because the sanitization will
ensure that pointer arithmetic stays in (architectural) bounds, the
sanitize_check_bounds() on the speculative path could also be skipped.
The second case needs more attention: Assume we have some ALU operation
that is used with scalars architecturally, but with a
non-PTR_TO_{STACK,MAP_VALUE} pointer (e.g., PTR_TO_PACKET)
speculatively. It might appear as if this would allow an unsanitized
pointer ALU operations, but this can not happen because one of the
following two always holds:
* The type mismatch stems from Spectre v4, then it is prevented by a
nospec after the possibly-bypassed store involving the pointer. There
is no speculative path simulated for this case thus it never happens.
* The type mismatch stems from a Spectre v1 gadget like the following:
r1 = slow(0)
r4 = fast(0)
r3 = SCALAR // Spectre v4 scalar confusion
if (r1) {
r2 = PTR_TO_PACKET
} else {
r2 = 42
}
if (r4) {
r2 += r3
*r2
}
If `r2 = PTR_TO_PACKET` is indeed dead code, it will be sanitized to
`goto -1` (as is the case for the r4-if block). If it is not (e.g., if
`r1 = r4 = 1` is possible), it will also be explored on an
architectural path and retrieve_ptr_limit() will reject it.
To summarize, the exception for `vstate->speculative` is safe.
Back to retrieve_ptr_limit(): It only allows the ALU operation if the
involved pointer register (can be either source or destination for ADD)
is PTR_TO_STACK or PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. Otherwise, it returns -EOPNOTSUPP.
Therefore, sanitize_check_bounds() returning 0 for
non-PTR_TO_{STACK,MAP_VALUE} is fine because retrieve_ptr_limit() also
runs for all relevant cases and prevents unsafe operations.
To summarize, we allow unsanitized pointer arithmetic with 64-bit
ADD/SUB for the following instructions if the requirements from
retrieve_ptr_limit() AND sanitize_check_bounds() hold:
* ptr -=/+= imm32 (i.e. `BPF_SRC(insn->code) == BPF_K`)
* PTR_TO_{STACK,MAP_VALUE} -= scalar
* PTR_TO_{STACK,MAP_VALUE} += scalar
* scalar += PTR_TO_{STACK,MAP_VALUE}
To document the interdependency between sanitize_check_bounds() and
retrieve_ptr_limit(), add a verifier_bug_if() to make sure they stay in
sync.

- The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
VM's memory consumption was dramatic.

code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
- The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that
are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.

PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more
efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
- The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"

because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()

the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
favor of using more current facilities.
- The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
- The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the
addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page

unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
- The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
structures.
- The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
which we've been missing for 15 years.
- The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
dramaticelly reduced.
- The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
reading the code.
- The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
hit.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
- The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
Baoquan found via code inspection.
- The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly
ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
- The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
utilization.
- The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive
reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
- The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.

pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.
- "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.
This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
rather than file-backed folios.
- "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
ranges of invalid pfns.
- "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.
Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
using JFS.
- "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
appropriate mm/vma.c.
- "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
function.
- "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.
- "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
test_memcontrol selftest.
- "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().
The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.
This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
documents.
- "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the
hugetlb code.

Core
----
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing
again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter
---------
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools
still use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain
and flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
introspection.
BPF
---
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols
---------
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single
flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API
----------
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers
----------------------
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing
to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT
the user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
- Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
- AMD Renoir ethernet device.
- ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.
- Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.

- cgroup rstat shared the tracking tree across all controlers with the
rationale being that a cgroup which is using one resource is likely to be
using other resources at the same time (ie. if something is allocating
memory, it's probably consuming CPU cycles). However, this turned out to
not scale very well especially with memcg using rstat for internal
operations which made memcg stat read and flush patterns substantially
different from other controllers. JP Kobryn split the rstat tree per
controller.
- cgroup BPF support was hooking into cgroup init/exit paths directly.
Convert them to use a notifier chain instead so that other usages can be
added easily. The two of the patches which implement this are mislabeled
as belonging to sched_ext instead of cgroup. Sorry.
- Relatively minor cpuset updates.
- Documentation updates.

using rstat for internal operations which made memcg stat read and
flush patterns substantially different from other controllers. JP
Kobryn split the rstat tree per controller.
- cgroup BPF support was hooking into cgroup init/exit paths directly.
Convert them to use a notifier chain instead so that other usages can

When creating bpf program, 'fp->jit_requested' depends on bpf_jit_enable.
This issue is triggered because of CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not set
and bpf_jit_enable is set to 1, causing the arch to attempt JIT the prog,
but jit failed due to FAULT_INJECTION. As a result, incorrectly
treats the program as valid, when the program runs it calls
`__bpf_prog_ret0_warn` and triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(1).

Marc Suñé (Isovalent, part of Cisco) reported an issue where an
uninitialized variable caused generating bpf prog binary code not
working as expected. The reproducer is in [1] where the flags
“-Wall -Werror” are enabled, but there is no warning as the compiler
takes advantage of uninitialized variable to do aggressive optimization.
The optimized code looks like below:
; {
0: bf 16 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r1
; bpf_printk("Start");
1: 18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x0 ll

9: 85 00 00 00 06 00 00 00 call 0x6
<END>
The verifier will report the following failure:
9: (85) call bpf_trace_printk#6
last insn is not an exit or jmp
The above verifier log does not give a clear hint about how to fix
the problem and user may take quite some time to figure out that
the issue is due to compiler taking advantage of uninitialized variable.
In llvm internals, uninitialized variable usage may generate
'unreachable' IR insn and these 'unreachable' IR insns may indicate
uninitialized variable impact on code optimization. So far, llvm
BPF backend ignores 'unreachable' IR hence the above code is generated.
With clang21 patch [2], those 'unreachable' IR insn are converted
to func __bpf_trap(). In order to maintain proper control flow
graph for bpf progs, [2] also adds an 'exit' insn after bpf_trap()
if __bpf_trap() is the last insn in the function. The new code looks like:
; {
0: bf 16 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r1
; bpf_printk("Start");

<END>
In kernel, a new kfunc __bpf_trap() is added. During insn
verification, any hit with __bpf_trap() will result in
verification failure. The kernel is able to provide better
log message for debugging.
With llvm patch [2] and without this patch (no __bpf_trap()
kfunc for existing kernel), e.g., for old kernels, the verifier
outputs
10: <invalid kfunc call>
kfunc '__bpf_trap' is referenced but wasn't resolved
Basically, kernel does not support __bpf_trap() kfunc.
This still didn't give clear signals about possible reason.
With llvm patch [2] and with this patch, the verifier outputs
10: (85) call __bpf_trap#74479
unexpected __bpf_trap() due to uninitialized variable?
It gives much better hints for verification failure.

Currently, the verifier has both special_kfunc_set and special_kfunc_list.
When adding a new kfunc usage to the verifier, it is often confusing
about whether special_kfunc_set or special_kfunc_list or both should
add that kfunc. For example, some kfuncs, e.g., bpf_dynptr_from_skb,
bpf_dynptr_clone, bpf_wq_set_callback_impl, does not need to be
in special_kfunc_set.
To avoid potential future confusion, special_kfunc_set is deleted
and btf_id_set_contains(&special_kfunc_set, ...) is removed.
The code is refactored with a new func check_special_kfunc(),
which contains all codes covered by original branch
meta.btf == btf_vmlinux && btf_id_set_contains(&special_kfunc_set, meta.func_id)
There is no functionality change.

Pull vfs directory lookup updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains cleanups for the lookup_one*() family of helpers.
We expose a set of functions with names containing "lookup_one_len"
and others without the "_len". This difference has nothing to do with
"len". It's rater a historical accident that can be confusing.
The functions without "_len" take a "mnt_idmap" pointer. This is found
in the "vfsmount" and that is an important question when choosing
which to use: do you have a vfsmount, or are you "inside" the
filesystem. A related question is "is permission checking relevant
here?".
nfsd and cachefiles *do* have a vfsmount but *don't* use the non-_len
functions. They pass nop_mnt_idmap and refuse to work on filesystems
which have any other idmap.
This work changes nfsd and cachefile to use the lookup_one family of
functions and to explictily pass &nop_mnt_idmap which is consistent
with all other vfs interfaces used where &nop_mnt_idmap is explicitly
passed.
The remaining uses of the "_one" functions do not require permission
checks so these are renamed to be "_noperm" and the permission
checking is removed.
This series also changes these lookup function to take a qstr instead
of separate name and len. In many cases this simplifies the call"

Right now each process needs to read the BTF blob either in pieces or

The "try_" prefix is confusing, since it made people believe that
try_alloc_pages() is analogous to spin_trylock() and NULL return means
EAGAIN. This is not the case. If it returns NULL there is no reason to
call it again. It will most likely return NULL again. Hence rename it to
alloc_pages_nolock() to make it symmetrical to free_pages_nolock() and
document that NULL means ENOMEM.

Throughout the verifier's logic, there are multiple checks for
inconsistent states that should never happen and would indicate a
verifier bug. These bugs are typically logged in the verifier logs and
sometimes preceded by a WARN_ONCE.
This patch reworks these checks to consistently emit a verifier log AND
a warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL is enabled. The consistent use of
WARN_ONCE should help fuzzers (ex. syzkaller) expose any situation
where they are actually able to reach one of those buggy verifier
states.

There is currently some confusion in the s390x JIT regarding whether
orig_call can be NULL and what that means. Originally the NULL value
was used to distinguish the struct_ops case, but this was superseded by
BPF_TRAMP_F_INDIRECT (see commit 0c970ed2f8 ("s390/bpf: Fix indirect
trampoline generation").
The remaining reason to have this check is that NULL can actually be
passed to the arch_bpf_trampoline_size() call - but not to the
respective arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline()! call - by
bpf_struct_ops_prepare_trampoline().
Remove this asymmetry by passing stub_func to both functions, so that
JITs may rely on orig_call never being NULL.

Instead of hardcoding the list of kfuncs that need prog->aux passed to
them with a combination of fixup_kfunc_call adjustment + __ign suffix,
combine both in __prog suffix, which ignores the argument passed in, and
fixes it up to the prog->aux. This allows kfuncs to have the prog->aux

This patch introduces a new set of kfuncs for working with dynptrs in
BPF programs, enabling reading variable-length user or kernel data
into dynptr directly. To enable memory-safety, verifier allows only
constant-sized reads via existing bpf_probe_read_{user|kernel} etc.
kfuncs, dynptr-based kfuncs allow dynamically-sized reads without memory
safety shortcomings.
The following kfuncs are introduced:
* `bpf_probe_read_kernel_dynptr()`: probes kernel-space data into a dynptr
* `bpf_probe_read_user_dynptr()`: probes user-space data into a dynptr
* `bpf_probe_read_kernel_str_dynptr()`: probes kernel-space string into
a dynptr
* `bpf_probe_read_user_str_dynptr()`: probes user-space string into a
dynptr
* `bpf_copy_from_user_dynptr()`: sleepable, copies user-space data into
a dynptr for the current task
* `bpf_copy_from_user_str_dynptr()`: sleepable, copies user-space string
into a dynptr for the current task
* `bpf_copy_from_user_task_dynptr()`: sleepable, copies user-space data
of the task into a dynptr
* `bpf_copy_from_user_task_str_dynptr()`: sleepable, copies user-space
string of the task into a dynptr
The implementation is built on two generic functions:
* __bpf_dynptr_copy
* __bpf_dynptr_copy_str
These functions take function pointers as arguments, enabling the
copying of data from various sources, including both kernel and user
space.
Use __always_inline for generic functions and callbacks to make sure the
compiler doesn't generate indirect calls into callbacks, which is more
expensive, especially on some kernel configurations. Inlining allows
compiler to put direct calls into all the specific callback implementations
(copy_user_data_sleepable, copy_user_data_nofault, and so on).

In the kernel fq qdisc implementation, it only needs to look at
the fields of the first node in a list but does not always
need to remove it from the list. It is more convenient to have
a peek kfunc for the list. It works similar to the bpf_rbtree_first().
This patch adds bpf_list_{front,back} kfunc. The verifier is changed
such that the kfunc returning "struct bpf_list_node *" will be
marked as non-owning. The exception is the KF_ACQUIRE kfunc. The
net effect is only the new bpf_list_{front,back} kfuncs will
have its return pointer marked as non-owning.

The bpf_rbtree_{remove,left,right} requires the root's lock to be held.
They also check the node_internal->owner is still owned by that root
before proceeding, so it is safe to allow refcounted bpf_rb_node
pointer to be used in these kfuncs.
In a bpf fq implementation which is much closer to the kernel fq,
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250418224652.105998-13-martin.lau@linux.dev/,
a networking flow (allocated by bpf_obj_new) can be added to two different
rbtrees. There are cases that the flow is searched from one rbtree,
held the refcount of the flow, and then removed from another rbtree:
struct fq_flow {
struct bpf_rb_node fq_node;
struct bpf_rb_node rate_node;
struct bpf_refcount refcount;
unsigned long sk_long;
};
int bpf_fq_enqueue(...)
{
/* ... */
bpf_spin_lock(&root->lock);
while (can_loop) {
/* ... */
if (!p)
break;
gc_f = bpf_rb_entry(p, struct fq_flow, fq_node);
if (gc_f->sk_long == sk_long) {
f = bpf_refcount_acquire(gc_f);
break;
}
/* ... */
}
bpf_spin_unlock(&root->lock);
if (f) {
bpf_spin_lock(&q->lock);
bpf_rbtree_remove(&q->delayed, &f->rate_node);
bpf_spin_unlock(&q->lock);
}
}
bpf_rbtree_{left,right} do not need this change but are relaxed together
with bpf_rbtree_remove instead of adding extra verifier logic
to exclude these kfuncs.
To avoid bi-sect failure, this patch also changes the selftests together.
The "rbtree_api_remove_unadded_node" is not expecting verifier's error.
The test now expects bpf_rbtree_remove(&groot, &m->node) to return NULL.
The test uses __retval(0) to ensure this NULL return value.
Some of the "only take non-owning..." failure messages are changed also.

The much simplified logic that uses the bpf_rbtree_{root,left,right}
to traverse the rbtree is like:
struct fq_flow {
struct bpf_rb_node fq_node;
struct bpf_rb_node rate_node;
struct bpf_refcount refcount;
unsigned long sk_long;
};
struct fq_flow_root {
struct bpf_spin_lock lock;
struct bpf_rb_root root __contains(fq_flow, fq_node);
};
struct fq_flow *fq_classify(...)
{
struct bpf_rb_node *tofree[FQ_GC_MAX];
struct fq_flow_root *root;
struct fq_flow *gc_f, *f;
struct bpf_rb_node *p;
int i, fcnt = 0;
/* ... */
f = NULL;
bpf_spin_lock(&root->lock);
p = bpf_rbtree_root(&root->root);
while (can_loop) {
if (!p)
break;
gc_f = bpf_rb_entry(p, struct fq_flow, fq_node);
if (gc_f->sk_long == sk_long) {
f = bpf_refcount_acquire(gc_f);
break;
}
/* To be removed from the rbtree */
if (fcnt < FQ_GC_MAX && fq_gc_candidate(gc_f, jiffies_now))
tofree[fcnt++] = p;
if (gc_f->sk_long > sk_long)
p = bpf_rbtree_left(&root->root, p);
else
p = bpf_rbtree_right(&root->root, p);
}
/* remove from the rbtree */
for (i = 0; i < fcnt; i++) {
p = tofree[i];
tofree[i] = bpf_rbtree_remove(&root->root, p);
}
bpf_spin_unlock(&root->lock);
/* bpf_obj_drop the fq_flow(s) that have just been removed
* from the rbtree.
*/
for (i = 0; i < fcnt; i++) {
p = tofree[i];
if (p) {
gc_f = bpf_rb_entry(p, struct fq_flow, fq_node);
bpf_obj_drop(gc_f);
}
}
return f;
}
The above simplified code needs to traverse the rbtree for two purposes,
1) find the flow with the desired sk_long value
2) while searching for the sk_long, collect flows that are
the fq_gc_candidate. They will be removed from the rbtree.
This patch adds the bpf_rbtree_{root,left,right} kfunc to enable
the rbtree traversal. The returned bpf_rb_node pointer will be a
non-owning reference which is the same as the returned pointer
of the exisiting bpf_rbtree_first kfunc.

The current rbtree kfunc, bpf_rbtree_{first, remove}, returns the
bpf_rb_node pointer. The check_kfunc_call currently checks the
kfunc btf_id instead of its return pointer type to decide
if it needs to do mark_reg_graph_node(reg0) and ref_set_non_owning(reg0).
The later patch will add bpf_rbtree_{root,left,right} that will also
return a bpf_rb_node pointer. Instead of adding more kfunc btf_id
checks to the "if" case, this patch changes the test to check the
kfunc's return type. is_rbtree_node_type() function is added to
test if a pointer type is a bpf_rb_node. The callers have already
skipped the modifiers of the pointer type.
A note on the ref_set_non_owning(), although bpf_rbtree_remove()
also returns a bpf_rb_node pointer, the bpf_rbtree_remove()
has the KF_ACQUIRE flag. Thus, its reg0 will not become non-owning.

In a later patch, two new kfuncs will take the bpf_rb_node pointer arg.
struct bpf_rb_node *bpf_rbtree_left(struct bpf_rb_root *root,
struct bpf_rb_node *node);
struct bpf_rb_node *bpf_rbtree_right(struct bpf_rb_root *root,
struct bpf_rb_node *node);
In the check_kfunc_call, there is a "case KF_ARG_PTR_TO_RB_NODE"
to check if the reg->type should be an allocated pointer or should be
a non_owning_ref.
The later patch will need to ensure that the bpf_rb_node pointer passing
to the new bpf_rbtree_{left,right} must be a non_owning_ref. This
should be the same requirement as the existing bpf_rbtree_remove.
This patch swaps the current "if else" statement. Instead of checking
the bpf_rbtree_remove, it checks the bpf_rbtree_add. Then the new
bpf_rbtree_{left,right} will fall into the "else" case to make
the later patch simpler. bpf_rbtree_add should be the only
one that needs an allocated pointer.
This should be a no-op change considering there are only two kfunc(s)
taking bpf_rb_node pointer arg, rbtree_add and rbtree_remove.

In the current implementation if the program is dev-bound to a specific

it is not attached to any map entry. This seems in contrast with the
explanation available in bpf_prog_map_compatible routine.
Fix the issue introducing __bpf_prog_map_compatible utility routine in
order to avoid bpf_prog_is_dev_bound() check running bpf_check_tail_call()

As reported by Cody Haas [1], when there is concurrent map lookup and
map update operation in an existing element for htab of maps, the map
lookup procedure may return -ENOENT unexpectedly.
The root cause is twofold:
1) the update of existing element involves two separated list operation
In htab_map_update_elem(), it first inserts the new element at the head
of list, then it deletes the old element. Therefore, it is possible a
lookup operation has already iterated to the middle of the list when a
concurrent update operation begins, and the lookup operation will fail
to find the target element.
2) the immediate reuse of htab element.
It is more subtle. Even through the lookup operation finds the old
element, it is possible that the target element has been removed by a
concurrent update operation, and the element has been reused immediately
by other update operation which runs on the same CPU as the previous
update operation, and the element is inserted into the same bucket list.
After these steps above, when the lookup operation tries to compare the
key in the old element with the expected key, the match will fail
because the key in the old element have been overwritten by other update
operation.
The two-step update process is relatively straightforward to address.
The more challenging aspect is the immediate reuse. As Alexei pointed
out:
So since 2022 both prealloc and no_prealloc reuse elements.
We can consider a new flag for the hash map like F_REUSE_AFTER_RCU_GP
that will use _rcu() flavor of freeing into bpf_ma,
but it has to have a strong reason.
Given that htab of maps doesn't support special field in value and
directly stores the inner map pointer in htab_element, just do in-place
update for htab of maps instead of attempting to address the immediate
reuse issue.

All hash maps store map key and map value together. The relative offset
of the map value compared to the map key is round_up(key_size, 8).
Therefore, factor out a common helper htab_elem_value() to calculate the
address of the map value instead of duplicating the logic.

The lookup_one_len family of functions is (now) only used internally by
a filesystem on itself either
- in a context where permission checking is irrelevant such as by a
virtual filesystem populating itself, or xfs accessing its ORPHANAGE
or dquota accessing the quota file; or
- in a context where a permission check (MAY_EXEC on the parent) has just
been performed such as a network filesystem finding in "silly-rename"
file in the same directory. This is also the context after the
_parentat() functions where currently lookup_one_qstr_excl() is used.
So the permission check is pointless.
The name "one_len" is unhelpful in understanding the purpose of these
functions and should be changed. Most of the callers pass the len as
"strlen()" so using a qstr and QSTR() can simplify the code.
This patch renames these functions (include lookup_positive_unlocked()
which is part of the family despite the name) to have a name based on
"lookup_noperm". They are changed to receive a 'struct qstr' instead
of separate name and len. In a few cases the use of QSTR() results in a
new call to strlen().
try_lookup_noperm() takes a pointer to a qstr instead of the whole
qstr. This is consistent with d_hash_and_lookup() (which is nearly
identical) and useful for lookup_noperm_unlocked().
The new lookup_noperm_common() doesn't take a qstr yet. That will be
tidied up in a subsequent patch.

Pull bpf try_alloc_pages() support from Alexei Starovoitov:
"The pull includes work from Sebastian, Vlastimil and myself with a lot
of help from Michal and Shakeel.
This is a first step towards making kmalloc reentrant to get rid of
slab wrappers: bpf_mem_alloc, kretprobe's objpool, etc. These patches
make page allocator safe from any context.
Vlastimil kicked off this effort at LSFMM 2024:
https://lwn.net/Articles/974138/
and we continued at LSFMM 2025:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAADnVQKfkGxudNUkcPJgwe3nTZ=xohnRshx9kLZBTmR_E1DFEg@mail.gmail.com/
Why:
SLAB wrappers bind memory to a particular subsystem making it
unavailable to the rest of the kernel. Some BPF maps in production
consume Gbytes of preallocated memory. Top 5 in Meta: 1.5G, 1.2G,
1.1G, 300M, 200M. Once we have kmalloc that works in any context BPF
map preallocation won't be necessary.
How:
Synchronous kmalloc/page alloc stack has multiple stages going from
fast to slow: cmpxchg16 -> slab_alloc -> new_slab -> alloc_pages ->
rmqueue_pcplist -> __rmqueue, where rmqueue_pcplist was already
relying on trylock.
This set changes rmqueue_bulk/rmqueue_buddy to attempt a trylock and
return ENOMEM if alloc_flags & ALLOC_TRYLOCK. It then wraps this
functionality into try_alloc_pages() helper. We make sure that the
logic is sane in PREEMPT_RT.
End result: try_alloc_pages()/free_pages_nolock() are safe to call
from any context.
try_kmalloc() for any context with similar trylock approach will
follow. It will use try_alloc_pages() when slab needs a new page.
Though such try_kmalloc/page_alloc() is an opportunistic allocator,
this design ensures that the probability of successful allocation of
small objects (up to one page in size) is high.
Even before we have try_kmalloc(), we already use try_alloc_pages() in
BPF arena implementation and it's going to be used more extensively in
BPF"

Merge tag 'bpf_res_spin_lock' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Pull bpf relisient spinlock support from Alexei Starovoitov:
"This patch set introduces Resilient Queued Spin Lock (or rqspinlock
with res_spin_lock() and res_spin_unlock() APIs).
This is a qspinlock variant which recovers the kernel from a stalled
state when the lock acquisition path cannot make forward progress.
This can occur when a lock acquisition attempt enters a deadlock
situation (e.g. AA, or ABBA), or more generally, when the owner of the
lock (which we’re trying to acquire) isn’t making forward progress.
Deadlock detection is the main mechanism used to provide instant
recovery, with the timeout mechanism acting as a final line of
defense. Detection is triggered immediately when beginning the waiting
loop of a lock slow path.
Additionally, BPF programs attached to different parts of the kernel
can introduce new control flow into the kernel, which increases the
likelihood of deadlocks in code not written to handle reentrancy.
There have been multiple syzbot reports surfacing deadlocks in
internal kernel code due to the diverse ways in which BPF programs can
be attached to different parts of the kernel. By switching the BPF
subsystem’s lock usage to rqspinlock, all of these issues are
mitigated at runtime.
This spin lock implementation allows BPF maps to become safer and
remove mechanisms that have fallen short in assuring safety when
nesting programs in arbitrary ways in the same context or across
different contexts.
We run benchmarks that stress locking scalability and perform
comparison against the baseline (qspinlock). For the rqspinlock case,
we replace the default qspinlock with it in the kernel, such that all
spin locks in the kernel use the rqspinlock slow path. As such,
benchmarks that stress kernel spin locks end up exercising rqspinlock.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls).
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked)
in BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream performance
up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching
for an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock.
Bring an additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles.
There are up to 4 namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns
pointer arguments, interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout
in TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.
- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.
- Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
sockets.
- Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin users.
- Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.
- Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a module.
- Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar
to normal bridging.
- Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.
- netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name
to messages as metadata
Driver API
----------
- Continue rework / fixing of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) across
the SW layers. Delegate the responsibilities to phylink where possible.

hrtimers are initialized with hrtimer_init() and a subsequent store to
the callback pointer. This turned out to be suboptimal for the upcoming
Rust integration and is obviously a silly implementation to begin with.
This cleanup replaces the hrtimer_init(T); T->function = cb; sequence
with hrtimer_setup(T, cb);
The conversion was done with Coccinelle and a few manual fixups.
Once the conversion has completely landed in mainline, hrtimer_init()
will be removed and the hrtimer::function becomes a private member.

syzbot reported the following splat [0].
In check_atomic_load/store(), register validity is not checked before
atomic_ptr_type_ok(). This causes the out-of-bounds read in is_ctx_reg()
called from atomic_ptr_type_ok() when the register number is MAX_BPF_REG
or greater.
Call check_load_mem()/check_store_reg() before atomic_ptr_type_ok()
to avoid the OOB read.
However, some tests introduced by commit ff3afe5da9 ("selftests/bpf: Add
selftests for load-acquire and store-release instructions") assume
calling atomic_ptr_type_ok() before checking register validity.
Therefore the swapping of order unintentionally changes verifier messages
of these tests.
For example in the test load_acquire_from_pkt_pointer(), expected message
is 'BPF_ATOMIC loads from R2 pkt is not allowed' although actual messages
are different.

=============
EXPECTED SUBSTR: 'BPF_ATOMIC loads from R2 pkt is not allowed'
#505/19 verifier_load_acquire/load-acquire from pkt pointer:FAIL
This is because instructions in the test don't pass check_load_mem() and
therefore don't enter the atomic_ptr_type_ok() path.
In this case, we have to modify instructions so that they pass the
check_load_mem() and trigger atomic_ptr_type_ok().
Similarly for store-release tests, we need to modify instructions so that
they pass check_store_reg().
Like load_acquire_from_pkt_pointer(), modify instructions in:
load_acquire_from_sock_pointer()
store_release_to_ctx_pointer()
store_release_to_pkt_pointer()
Also in store_release_to_sock_pointer(), check_store_reg() returns error
early and atomic_ptr_type_ok() is not triggered, since write to sock
pointer is not possible in general.
We might be able to remove the test, but for now let's leave it and just
change the expected message.

Since out-of-order unlocks are unsupported for rqspinlock, and irqsave
variants enforce strict FIFO ordering anyway, make the same change for
normal non-irqsave variants, such that FIFO ordering is enforced.
Two new verifier state fields (active_lock_id, active_lock_ptr) are used
to denote the top of the stack, and prev_id and prev_ptr are ascertained
whenever popping the topmost entry through an unlock.
Take special care to make these fields part of the state comparison in
refsafe.

Introduce verifier-side support for rqspinlock kfuncs. The first step is
allowing bpf_res_spin_lock type to be defined in map values and
allocated objects, so BTF-side is updated with a new BPF_RES_SPIN_LOCK
field to recognize and validate.
Any object cannot have both bpf_spin_lock and bpf_res_spin_lock, only
one of them (and at most one of them per-object, like before) must be
present. The bpf_res_spin_lock can also be used to protect objects that
require lock protection for their kfuncs, like BPF rbtree and linked
list.
The verifier plumbing to simulate success and failure cases when calling
the kfuncs is done by pushing a new verifier state to the verifier state
stack which will verify the failure case upon calling the kfunc. The
path where success is indicated creates all lock reference state and IRQ
state (if necessary for irqsave variants). In the case of failure, the
state clears the registers r0-r5, sets the return value, and skips kfunc
processing, proceeding to the next instruction.
When marking the return value for success case, the value is marked as
0, and for the failure case as [-MAX_ERRNO, -1]. Then, in the program,
whenever user checks the return value as 'if (ret)' or 'if (ret < 0)'
the verifier never traverses such branches for success cases, and would
be aware that the lock is not held in such cases.
We push the kfunc state in check_kfunc_call whenever rqspinlock kfuncs
are invoked. We introduce a kfunc_class state to avoid mixing lock
irqrestore kfuncs with IRQ state created by bpf_local_irq_save.
With all this infrastructure, these kfuncs become usable in programs
while satisfying all safety properties required by the kernel.

Introduce four new kfuncs, bpf_res_spin_lock, and bpf_res_spin_unlock,
and their irqsave/irqrestore variants, which wrap the rqspinlock APIs.
bpf_res_spin_lock returns a conditional result, depending on whether the
lock was acquired (NULL is returned when lock acquisition succeeds,
non-NULL upon failure). The memory pointed to by the returned pointer
upon failure can be dereferenced after the NULL check to obtain the
error code.
Instead of using the old bpf_spin_lock type, introduce a new type with
the same layout, and the same alignment, but a different name to avoid
type confusion.
Preemption is disabled upon successful lock acquisition, however IRQs
are not. Special kfuncs can be introduced later to allow disabling IRQs
when taking a spin lock. Resilient locks are safe against AA deadlocks,
hence not disabling IRQs currently does not allow violation of kernel
safety.
__irq_flag annotation is used to accept IRQ flags for the IRQ-variants,
with the same semantics as existing bpf_local_irq_{save, restore}.
These kfuncs will require additional verifier-side support in subsequent
commits, to allow programs to hold multiple locks at the same time.

Convert all LPM trie usage of raw_spinlock to rqspinlock.
Note that rcu_dereference_protected in trie_delete_elem is switched over
to plain rcu_dereference, the RCU read lock should be held from BPF
program side or eBPF syscall path, and the trie->lock is just acquired
before the dereference. It is not clear the reason the protected variant
was used from the commit history, but the above reasoning makes sense so
switch over.

We ripped out PV and virtualization related bits from rqspinlock in an
earlier commit, however, a fair lock performs poorly within a virtual
machine when the lock holder is preempted. As such, retain the
virt_spin_lock fallback to test and set lock, but with timeout and
deadlock detection. We can do this by simply depending on the
resilient_tas_spin_lock implementation from the previous patch.
We don't integrate support for CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS yet, as that
requires more involved algorithmic changes and introduces more
complexity. It can be done when the need arises in the future.

Include a test-and-set fallback when queued spinlock support is not
available. Introduce a rqspinlock type to act as a fallback when
qspinlock support is absent.
Include ifdef guards to ensure the slow path in this file is only
compiled when CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y. Subsequent patches will add
further logic to ensure fallback to the test-and-set implementation
when queued spinlock support is unavailable on an architecture.
Unlike other waiting loops in rqspinlock code, the one for test-and-set
has no theoretical upper bound under contention, therefore we need a
longer timeout than usual. Bump it up to a second in this case.

While the timeout logic provides guarantees for the waiter's forward
progress, the time until a stalling waiter unblocks can still be long.
The default timeout of 1/4 sec can be excessively long for some use
cases. Additionally, custom timeouts may exacerbate recovery time.
Introduce logic to detect common cases of deadlocks and perform quicker
recovery. This is done by dividing the time from entry into the locking
slow path until the timeout into intervals of 1 ms. Then, after each
interval elapses, deadlock detection is performed, while also polling
the lock word to ensure we can quickly break out of the detection logic
and proceed with lock acquisition.
A 'held_locks' table is maintained per-CPU where the entry at the bottom
denotes a lock being waited for or already taken. Entries coming before
it denote locks that are already held. The current CPU's table can thus
be looked at to detect AA deadlocks. The tables from other CPUs can be
looked at to discover ABBA situations. Finally, when a matching entry
for the lock being taken on the current CPU is found on some other CPU,
a deadlock situation is detected. This function can take a long time,
therefore the lock word is constantly polled in each loop iteration to
ensure we can preempt detection and proceed with lock acquisition, using
the is_lock_released check.
We set 'spin' member of rqspinlock_timeout struct to 0 to trigger
deadlock checks immediately to perform faster recovery.
Note: Extending lock word size by 4 bytes to record owner CPU can allow
faster detection for ABBA. It is typically the owner which participates
in a ABBA situation. However, to keep compatibility with existing lock
words in the kernel (struct qspinlock), and given deadlocks are a rare
event triggered by bugs, we choose to favor compatibility over faster
detection.
The release_held_lock_entry function requires an smp_wmb, while the
release store on unlock will provide the necessary ordering for us. Add
comments to document the subtleties of why this is correct. It is
possible for stores to be reordered still, but in the context of the
deadlock detection algorithm, a release barrier is sufficient and
needn't be stronger for unlock's case.

When we run out of maximum rqnodes, the original queued spin lock slow
path falls back to a try lock. In such a case, we are again susceptible
to stalls in case the lock owner fails to make progress. We use the
timeout as a fallback to break out of this loop and return to the
caller. This is a fallback for an extreme edge case, when on the same
CPU we run out of all 4 qnodes. When could this happen? We are in slow
path in task context, we get interrupted by an IRQ, which while in the
slow path gets interrupted by an NMI, whcih in the slow path gets
another nested NMI, which enters the slow path. All of the interruptions
happen after node->count++.
We use RES_DEF_TIMEOUT as our spinning duration, but in the case of this
fallback, no fairness is guaranteed, so the duration may be too small
for contended cases, as the waiting time is not bounded. Since this is
an extreme corner case, let's just prefer timing out instead of
attempting to spin for longer.

Implement the wait queue cleanup algorithm for rqspinlock. There are
three forms of waiters in the original queued spin lock algorithm. The
first is the waiter which acquires the pending bit and spins on the lock
word without forming a wait queue. The second is the head waiter that is
the first waiter heading the wait queue. The third form is of all the
non-head waiters queued behind the head, waiting to be signalled through
their MCS node to overtake the responsibility of the head.
In this commit, we are concerned with the second and third kind. First,
we augment the waiting loop of the head of the wait queue with a
timeout. When this timeout happens, all waiters part of the wait queue
will abort their lock acquisition attempts. This happens in three steps.
First, the head breaks out of its loop waiting for pending and locked
bits to turn to 0, and non-head waiters break out of their MCS node spin
(more on that later). Next, every waiter (head or non-head) attempts to
check whether they are also the tail waiter, in such a case they attempt
to zero out the tail word and allow a new queue to be built up for this
lock. If they succeed, they have no one to signal next in the queue to
stop spinning. Otherwise, they signal the MCS node of the next waiter to
break out of its spin and try resetting the tail word back to 0. This
goes on until the tail waiter is found. In case of races, the new tail
will be responsible for performing the same task, as the old tail will
then fail to reset the tail word and wait for its next pointer to be
updated before it signals the new tail to do the same.
We terminate the whole wait queue because of two main reasons. Firstly,
we eschew per-waiter timeouts with one applied at the head of the wait
queue. This allows everyone to break out faster once we've seen the
owner / pending waiter not responding for the timeout duration from the
head. Secondly, it avoids complicated synchronization, because when not
leaving in FIFO order, prev's next pointer needs to be fixed up etc.
Lastly, all of these waiters release the rqnode and return to the
caller. This patch underscores the point that rqspinlock's timeout does
not apply to each waiter individually, and cannot be relied upon as an
upper bound. It is possible for the rqspinlock waiters to return early
from a failed lock acquisition attempt as soon as stalls are detected.
The head waiter cannot directly WRITE_ONCE the tail to zero, as it may
race with a concurrent xchg and a non-head waiter linking its MCS node
to the head's MCS node through 'prev->next' assignment.
One notable thing is that we must use RES_DEF_TIMEOUT * 2 as our maximum
duration for the waiting loop (for the wait queue head), since we may
have both the owner and pending bit waiter ahead of us, and in the worst
case, need to span their maximum permitted critical section lengths.

The pending bit is used to avoid queueing in case the lock is
uncontended, and has demonstrated benefits for the 2 contender scenario,
esp. on x86. In case the pending bit is acquired and we wait for the
locked bit to disappear, we may get stuck due to the lock owner not
making progress. Hence, this waiting loop must be protected with a
timeout check.
To perform a graceful recovery once we decide to abort our lock
acquisition attempt in this case, we must unset the pending bit since we
own it. All waiters undoing their changes and exiting gracefully allows
the lock word to be restored to the unlocked state once all participants
(owner, waiters) have been recovered, and the lock remains usable.
Hence, set the pending bit back to zero before returning to the caller.
Introduce a lockevent (rqspinlock_lock_timeout) to capture timeout
event statistics.

Currently, for rqspinlock usage, the implementation of
smp_cond_load_acquire (and thus, atomic_cond_read_acquire) are
susceptible to stalls on arm64, because they do not guarantee that the
conditional expression will be repeatedly invoked if the address being
loaded from is not written to by other CPUs. When support for
event-streams is absent (which unblocks stuck WFE-based loops every
~100us), we may end up being stuck forever.
This causes a problem for us, as we need to repeatedly invoke the
RES_CHECK_TIMEOUT in the spin loop to break out when the timeout
expires.
Let us import the smp_cond_load_acquire_timewait implementation Ankur is
proposing in [0], and then fallback to it once it is merged.
While we rely on the implementation to amortize the cost of sampling
check_timeout for us, it will not happen when event stream support is
unavailable. This is not the common case, and it would be difficult to
fit our logic in the time_expr_ns >= time_limit_ns comparison, hence
just let it be.

Introduce policy macro RES_CHECK_TIMEOUT which can be used to detect
when the timeout has expired for the slow path to return an error. It
depends on being passed two variables initialized to 0: ts, ret. The
'ts' parameter is of type rqspinlock_timeout.
This macro resolves to the (ret) expression so that it can be used in
statements like smp_cond_load_acquire to break the waiting loop
condition.
The 'spin' member is used to amortize the cost of checking time by
dispatching to the implementation every 64k iterations. The
'timeout_end' member is used to keep track of the timestamp that denotes
the end of the waiting period. The 'ret' parameter denotes the status of
the timeout, and can be checked in the slow path to detect timeouts
after waiting loops.
The 'duration' member is used to store the timeout duration for each
waiting loop. The default timeout value defined in the header
(RES_DEF_TIMEOUT) is 0.25 seconds.
This macro will be used as a condition for waiting loops in the slow
path. Since each waiting loop applies a fresh timeout using the same
rqspinlock_timeout, we add a new RES_RESET_TIMEOUT as well to ensure the
values can be easily reinitialized to the default state.

Changes to rqspinlock in subsequent commits will be algorithmic
modifications, which won't remain in agreement with the implementations
of paravirt spin lock and virt_spin_lock support. These future changes
include measures for terminating waiting loops in slow path after a
certain point. While using a fair lock like qspinlock directly inside
virtual machines leads to suboptimal performance under certain
conditions, we cannot use the existing virtualization support before we
make it resilient as well. Therefore, drop it for now.
Note that we need to drop qspinlock_stat.h, as it's only relevant in
case of CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y, but we need to keep lock_events.h

If we attach fexit/fmod_ret to __noreturn functions, it will cause an
issue that the bpf trampoline image will be left over even if the bpf
link has been destroyed. Take attaching do_exit() with fexit for example.
The fexit works as follows,
bpf_trampoline
+ __bpf_tramp_enter
+ percpu_ref_get(&tr->pcref);
+ call do_exit()
+ __bpf_tramp_exit
+ percpu_ref_put(&tr->pcref);
Since do_exit() never returns, the refcnt of the trampoline image is
never decremented, preventing it from being freed. That can be verified
with as follows,
$ bpftool link show <<<< nothing output
$ grep "bpf_trampoline_[0-9]" /proc/kallsyms
ffffffffc04cb000 t bpf_trampoline_6442526459 [bpf] <<<< leftover

- Functions that are never executed by tasks, such as rest_init and

- Functions implemented in assembly, such as rewind_stack_and_make_dead and

The current cgrp storage has a percpu counter, bpf_cgrp_storage_busy,
to detect potential deadlock at a spin_lock that the local storage
acquires during new storage creation.
There are false positives. It turns out to be too noisy in
production. For example, a bpf prog may be doing a
bpf_cgrp_storage_get on map_a. An IRQ comes in and triggers
another bpf_cgrp_storage_get on a different map_b. It will then
trigger the false positive deadlock check in the percpu counter.
On top of that, both are doing lookup only and no need to create
new storage, so practically it does not need to acquire
the spin_lock.
The bpf_task_storage_get already has a strategy to minimize this
false positive by only failing if the bpf_task_storage_get needs
to create a new storage and the percpu counter is busy. Creating
a new storage is the only time it must acquire the spin_lock.
This patch borrows the same idea. Unlike task storage that
has a separate variant for tracing (_recur) and non-tracing, this
patch stays with one bpf_cgrp_storage_get helper to keep it simple
for now in light of the upcoming res_spin_lock.
The variable could potentially use a better name noTbusy instead
of nobusy. This patch follows the same naming in
bpf_task_storage_get for now.
I have tested it by temporarily adding noinline to
the cgroup_storage_lookup(), traced it by fentry, and the fentry
program succeeded in calling bpf_cgrp_storage_get().

Certain bpf syscall subcommands are available for usage from both

need to take a different course of action depending on whether or not
a BPF syscall originated from the kernel or userspace.
Additionally, some of the bpf_attr struct fields contain pointers to
arbitrary memory. Currently the functionality to determine whether or
not a pointer refers to kernel memory or userspace memory is exposed
to the bpf verifier, but that information is missing from various LSM
hooks.
Here we augment the LSM hooks to provide this data, by simply passing
a boolean flag indicating whether or not the call originated in the
kernel, in any hook that contains a bpf_attr struct that corresponds
to a subcommand that may be called from the kernel.

Compute may-live registers before each instruction in the program.
The register is live before the instruction I if it is read by I or
some instruction S following I during program execution and is not
overwritten between I and S.
This information would be used in the next patch as a hint in
func_states_equal().
Use a simple algorithm described in [1] to compute this information:
- define the following:
- I.use : a set of all registers read by instruction I;
- I.def : a set of all registers written by instruction I;
- I.in : a set of all registers that may be alive before I execution;
- I.out : a set of all registers that may be alive after I execution;
- I.successors : a set of instructions S that might immediately
follow I for some program execution;
- associate separate empty sets 'I.in' and 'I.out' with each instruction;
- visit each instruction in a postorder and update corresponding
'I.in' and 'I.out' sets as follows:
I.out = U [S.in for S in I.successors]
I.in = (I.out / I.def) U I.use
(where U stands for set union, / stands for set difference)
- repeat the computation while I.{in,out} changes for any instruction.
On implementation side keep things as simple, as possible:
- check_cfg() already marks instructions EXPLORED in post-order,
modify it to save the index of each EXPLORED instruction in a vector;
- represent I.{in,out,use,def} as bitmasks;
- don't split the program into basic blocks and don't maintain the
work queue, instead:
- do fixed-point computation by visiting each instruction;
- maintain a simple 'changed' flag if I.{in,out} for any instruction
change;
Measurements show that even such simplistic implementation does not
add measurable verification time overhead (for selftests, at-least).
Note on check_cfg() ex_insn_beg/ex_done change:
To avoid out of bounds access to env->cfg.insn_postorder array,
it should be guaranteed that instruction transitions to EXPLORED state
only once. Previously this was not the fact for incorrect programs
with direct calls to exception callbacks.
The 'align' selftest needs adjustment to skip computed insn/live
registers printout. Otherwise it matches lines from the live registers
printout.

Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release
semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags:
#define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100
#define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110
A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm'
field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100).
Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with
the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110).
Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support
BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and
store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an
exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not
supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the
kernel test robot).
An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to
a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends.
Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned
load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if
BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set).
As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF
instruction (assuming little-endian):
db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))
opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ
Similarly, a 16-bit BPF store-release:
cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00 store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2)
opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL
In arch/{arm64,s390,x86}/net/bpf_jit_comp.c, have
bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) return false for the new

Implement support in the verifier for replacing may_goto implementation
from a counter-based approach to one which samples time on the local CPU
to have a bigger loop bound.
We implement it by maintaining 16-bytes per-stack frame, and using 8
bytes for maintaining the count for amortizing time sampling, and 8
bytes for the starting timestamp. To minimize overhead, we need to avoid
spilling and filling of registers around this sequence, so we push this
cost into the time sampling function 'arch_bpf_timed_may_goto'. This is
a JIT-specific wrapper around bpf_check_timed_may_goto which returns us
the count to store into the stack through BPF_REG_AX. All caller-saved
registers (r0-r5) are guaranteed to remain untouched.
The loop can be broken by returning count as 0, otherwise we dispatch
into the function when the count drops to 0, and the runtime chooses to
refresh it (by returning count as BPF_MAX_TIMED_LOOPS) or returning 0
and aborting the loop on next iteration.
Since the check for 0 is done right after loading the count from the
stack, all subsequent cond_break sequences should immediately break as
well, of the same loop or subsequent loops in the program.
We pass in the stack_depth of the count (and thus the timestamp, by
adding 8 to it) to the arch_bpf_timed_may_goto call so that it can be
passed in to bpf_check_timed_may_goto as an argument after r1 is saved,
by adding the offset to r10/fp. This adjustment will be arch specific,
and the next patch will introduce support for x86.
Note that depending on loop complexity, time spent in the loop can be
more than the current limit (250 ms), but imposing an upper bound on
program runtime is an orthogonal problem which will be addressed when
program cancellations are supported.
The current time afforded by cond_break may not be enough for cases
where BPF programs want to implement locking algorithms inline, and use
cond_break as a promise to the verifier that they will eventually
terminate.
Below are some benchmarking numbers on the time taken per-iteration for
an empty loop that counts the number of iterations until cond_break
fires. For comparison, we compare it against bpf_for/bpf_repeat which is
another way to achieve the same number of spins (BPF_MAX_LOOPS). The
hardware used for benchmarking was a Sapphire Rapids Intel server with
performance governor enabled, mitigations were enabled.
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
| Loop type | Iterations | Time (ms) | Time/iter (ns) |
+-----------------------------|--------------+--------------+------------------+
| may_goto | 8388608 | 3 | 0.36 |
| timed_may_goto (count=65535)| 589674932 | 250 | 0.42 |
| bpf_for | 8388608 | 10 | 1.19 |
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
This gives a good approximation at low overhead while staying close to
the current implementation.

The verifier currently does not permit global subprog calls when a lock
is held, preemption is disabled, or when IRQs are disabled. This is
because we don't know whether the global subprog calls sleepable
functions or not.
In case of locks, there's an additional reason: functions called by the
global subprog may hold additional locks etc. The verifier won't know
while verifying the global subprog whether it was called in context
where a spin lock is already held by the program.
Perform summarization of the sleepable nature of a global subprog just
like changes_pkt_data and then allow calls to global subprogs for
non-sleepable ones from atomic context.
While making this change, I noticed that RCU read sections had no
protection against sleepable global subprog calls, include it in the
checks and fix this while we're at it.
Care needs to be taken to not allow global subprog calls when regular
bpf_spin_lock is held. When resilient spin locks is held, we want to
potentially have this check relaxed, but not for now.
Also make sure extensions freplacing global functions cannot do so
in case the target is non-sleepable, but the extension is. The other
combination is ok.
Tests are included in the next patch to handle all special conditions.

Currently for bpf progs in a cgroup hierarchy, the effective prog array
is computed from bottom cgroup to upper cgroups (post-ordering). For
example, the following cgroup hierarchy
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
have BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI for both cgroup levels.
The effective cgroup array ordering looks like
p3 p4 p1 p2
and at run time, progs will execute based on that order.
But in some cases, it is desirable to have root prog executes earlier than
children progs (pre-ordering). For example,
- prog p1 intends to collect original pkt dest addresses.
- prog p3 will modify original pkt dest addresses to a proxy address for
security reason.
The end result is that prog p1 gets proxy address which is not what it
wants. Putting p1 to every child cgroup is not desirable either as it
will duplicate itself in many child cgroups. And this is exactly a use case
we are encountering in Meta.
To fix this issue, let us introduce a flag BPF_F_PREORDER. If the flag
is specified at attachment time, the prog has higher priority and the
ordering with that flag will be from top to bottom (pre-ordering).
For example, in the above example,
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
Let us say p2 and p4 are marked with BPF_F_PREORDER. The final
effective array ordering will be
p2 p4 p3 p1

and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching

in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used

Due to this recent commit in the x86 tree:
9d7de2aa8b ("Use relative percpu offsets")
percpu addresses went from positive offsets from the GSBASE to negative
kernel virtual addresses. The BPF verifier has an optimization for
x86-64 that loads the address of cpu_number into a register, but was only
doing a 32-bit load which truncates negative addresses.
Change it to a 64-bit load so that the address is properly sign-extended.

Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

Now that cpumap uses GRO, which drops unused skb heads to the NAPI
cache, use napi_skb_cache_get_bulk() to try to reuse cached entries
and lower MM layer pressure. Always disable the BH before checking and
running the cpumap-pinned XDP prog and don't re-enable it in between
that and allocating an skb bulk, as we can access the NAPI caches only
from the BH context.
The better GRO aggregates packets, the less new skbs will be allocated.
If an aggregated skb contains 16 frags, this means 15 skbs were returned
to the cache, so next 15 skbs will be built without allocating anything.
The same trafficgen UDP GRO test now shows:
GRO off GRO on

XDP_PASS when a program is installed to the map itself. Don't list

cpumap has its own BH context based on kthread. It has a sane batch
size of 8 frames per one cycle.
GRO can be used here on its own. Adjust cpumap calls to the upper stack
to use GRO API instead of netif_receive_skb_list() which processes skbs
by batches, but doesn't involve GRO layer at all.
In plenty of tests, GRO performs better than listed receiving even
given that it has to calculate full frame checksums on the CPU.
As GRO passes the skbs to the upper stack in the batches of
@gro_normal_batch, i.e. 8 by default, and skb->dev points to the
device where the frame comes from, it is enough to disable GRO
netdev feature on it to completely restore the original behaviour:
untouched frames will be being bulked and passed to the upper stack
by 8, as it was with netif_receive_skb_list().

Test gen_prologue and gen_epilogue that generate kfuncs that have not
been seen in the main program.
The main bpf program and return value checks are identical to
pro_epilogue.c introduced in commit 47e69431b5 ("selftests/bpf: Test
gen_prologue and gen_epilogue"). However, now when bpf_testmod_st_ops
detects a program name with prefix "test_kfunc_", it generates slightly
different prologue and epilogue: They still add 1000 to args->a in
prologue, add 10000 to args->a and set r0 to 2 * args->a in epilogue,
but involve kfuncs.
At high level, the alternative version of prologue and epilogue look
like this:
cgrp = bpf_cgroup_from_id(0);
if (cgrp)
bpf_cgroup_release(cgrp);
else
/* Perform what original bpf_testmod_st_ops prologue or
* epilogue does
*/
Since 0 is never a valid cgroup id, the original prologue or epilogue
logic will be performed. As a result, the __retval check should expect
the exact same return value.

do_syscall_64+0x7b/0x150
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53
Further investigation shows the reason is due to not 8-byte aligned
store of percpu pointer in htab_elem_set_ptr():
*(void __percpu **)(l->key + key_size) = pptr;
Note that the whole htab_elem alignment is 8 (for x86_64). If the key_size
is 4, that means pptr is stored in a location which is 4 byte aligned but
not 8 byte aligned. In mm/kmemleak.c, scan_block() scans the memory based
on 8 byte stride, so it won't detect above pptr, hence reporting the memory
leak.
In htab_map_alloc(), we already have
htab->elem_size = sizeof(struct htab_elem) +
round_up(htab->map.key_size, 8);
if (percpu)
htab->elem_size += sizeof(void *);
else
htab->elem_size += round_up(htab->map.value_size, 8);
So storing pptr with 8-byte alignment won't cause any problem and can fix
kmemleak too.
The issue can be reproduced with bpf selftest as well:
1. Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK config
2. Add a getchar() before skel destroy in test_hash_map() in prog_tests/for_each.c.
The purpose is to keep map available so kmemleak can be detected.
3. run './test_progs -t for_each/hash_map &' and a kmemleak should be reported.

For example, BPF program will limit tracking X numbers of packets
and then will stop there instead of tracing all the sendmsgs of
matched flow all along. It would be helpful for users who cannot
afford to calculate latencies from every sendmsg call probably
due to the performance or storage space consideration.

When fixes from patches 1 and 3 are applied, Patrick Somaru reported
an increase in memory consumption for sched_ext iterator-based
programs hitting 1M instructions limit. For example, 2Gb VMs ran out
of memory while verifying a program. Similar behaviour could be
reproduced on current bpf-next master.
Here is an example of such program:
/* verification completes if given 16G or RAM,
* final env->free_list size is 369,960 entries.
*/
SEC("raw_tp")
__flag(BPF_F_TEST_STATE_FREQ)
__success
int free_list_bomb(const void *ctx)
{
volatile char buf[48] = {};
unsigned i, j;
j = 0;
bpf_for(i, 0, 10) {
/* this forks verifier state:
* - verification of current path continues and
* creates a checkpoint after 'if';
* - verification of forked path hits the
* checkpoint and marks it as loop_entry.
*/
if (bpf_get_prandom_u32())
asm volatile ("");
/* this marks 'j' as precise, thus any checkpoint
* created on current iteration would not be matched
* on the next iteration.
*/
buf[j++] = 42;
j %= ARRAY_SIZE(buf);
}
asm volatile (""::"r"(buf));
return 0;
}
Memory consumption increased due to more states being marked as loop
entries and eventually added to env->free_list.
This commit introduces logic to free states from env->free_list during
verification. A state in env->free_list can be freed if:
- it has no child states;
- it is not used as a loop_entry.
This commit:
- updates bpf_verifier_state->used_as_loop_entry to be a counter
that tracks how many states use this one as a loop entry;
- adds a function maybe_free_verifier_state(), which:
- frees a state if its ->branches and ->used_as_loop_entry counters
are both zero;
- if the state is freed, state->loop_entry->used_as_loop_entry is
decremented, and an attempt is made to free state->loop_entry.
In the example above, this approach reduces the maximum number of
states in the free list from 369,960 to 16,223.
However, this approach has its limitations. If the buf size in the
example above is modified to 64, state caching overflows: the state
for j=0 is evicted from the cache before it can be used to stop
traversal. As a result, states in the free list accumulate because
their branch counters do not reach zero.
The effect of this patch on the selftests looks as follows:

For a generic loop detection algorithm a graph node can be a loop
header for itself. However, state loop entries are computed for use in
is_state_visited(), where get_loop_entry(state)->branches is checked.
is_state_visited() also checks state->branches, thus the case when
state == state->loop_entry is not interesting for is_state_visited().

get_loop_entry() a bit and also simplifies change to

Tejun Heo reported an infinite loop in get_loop_entry(),
when verifying a sched_ext program layered_dispatch in [1].
After some investigation I'm sure that root cause is fixed by patches
1,3 in this patch-set.
To err on the safe side, this commit modifies get_loop_entry() to
detect infinite loops and abort verification in such cases.
The number of steps get_loop_entry(S) can make while moving along the
bpf_verifier_state->loop_entry chain is bounded by the DFS depth of
state S. This fact is exploited to implement the check.
To avoid dealing with the potential error code returned from
get_loop_entry() in update_loop_entry(), remove the get_loop_entry()
calls there:
- This change does not affect correctness. Loop entries would still be
updated during the backward DFS move in update_branch_counts().
- This change does not affect performance. Measurements show that
get_loop_entry() performs at most 1 step on selftests and at most 2
steps on sched_ext programs (1 step in 17 cases, 2 steps in 3
cases, measured using "do-not-submit" patches from [2]).

The generic_map_lookup_batch currently returns EINTR if it fails with
ENOENT and retries several times on bpf_map_copy_value. The next batch
would start from the same location, presuming it's a transient issue.
This is incorrect if a map can actually have "holes", i.e.
"get_next_key" can return a key that does not point to a valid value. At
least the array of maps type may contain such holes legitly. Right now
these holes show up, generic batch lookup cannot proceed any more. It
will always fail with EINTR errors.
Rather, do not retry in generic_map_lookup_batch. If it finds a non
existing element, skip to the next key. This simple solution comes with
a price that transient errors may not be recovered, and the iteration
might cycle back to the first key under parallel deletion. For example,
Hou Tao <houtao@huaweicloud.com> pointed out a following scenario:
For LPM trie map:
(1) ->map_get_next_key(map, prev_key, key) returns a valid key
(2) bpf_map_copy_value() return -ENOMENT
It means the key must be deleted concurrently.
(3) goto next_key
It swaps the prev_key and key
(4) ->map_get_next_key(map, prev_key, key) again
prev_key points to a non-existing key, for LPM trie it will treat just
like prev_key=NULL case, the returned key will be duplicated.
With the retry logic, the iteration can continue to the key next to the
deleted one. But if we directly skip to the next key, the iteration loop
would restart from the first key for the lpm_trie type.
However, not all races may be recovered. For example, if current key is
deleted after instead of before bpf_map_copy_value, or if the prev_key
also gets deleted, then the loop will still restart from the first key
for lpm_tire anyway. For generic lookup it might be better to stay
simple, i.e. just skip to the next key. To guarantee that the output
keys are not duplicated, it is better to implement map type specific
batch operations, which can properly lock the trie and synchronize with
concurrent mutators.

Allow a struct_ops program to return a referenced kptr if the struct_ops
operator's return type is a struct pointer. To make sure the returned
pointer continues to be valid in the kernel, several constraints are
required:
1) The type of the pointer must matches the return type
2) The pointer originally comes from the kernel (not locally allocated)
3) The pointer is in its unmodified form
Implementation wise, a referenced kptr first needs to be allowed to _leak_
in check_reference_leak() if it is in the return register. Then, in
check_return_code(), constraints 1-3 are checked. During struct_ops
registration, a check is also added to warn about operators with
non-struct pointer return.
In addition, since the first user, Qdisc_ops::dequeue, allows a NULL
pointer to be returned when there is no skb to be dequeued, we will allow
a scalar value with value equals to NULL to be returned.
In the future when there is a struct_ops user that always expects a valid
pointer to be returned from an operator, we may extend tagging to the
return value. We can tell the verifier to only allow NULL pointer return
if the return value is tagged with MAY_BE_NULL.

Allows struct_ops programs to acqurie referenced kptrs from arguments
by directly reading the argument.
The verifier will acquire a reference for struct_ops a argument tagged
with "__ref" in the stub function in the beginning of the main program.
The user will be able to access the referenced kptr directly by reading
the context as long as it has not been released by the program.
This new mechanism to acquire referenced kptr (compared to the existing
"kfunc with KF_ACQUIRE") is introduced for ergonomic and semantic reasons.
In the first use case, Qdisc_ops, an skb is passed to .enqueue in the
first argument. This mechanism provides a natural way for users to get a
referenced kptr in the .enqueue struct_ops programs and makes sure that a
qdisc will always enqueue or drop the skb.

In the next patch where we support acquiring a referenced kptr through a

be used to store the unique reference object id of the argument. This
avoids creating a requirement in the verifier that "__ref" tagged

2. For non-JIT cases, calculating interpreters[idx] may still cause

bpf_arena_alloc_pages() and bpf_arena_free_pages() work with the
bpf_arena pointers [1], which is indicated by the __arena macro in the
kernel source code:
#define __arena __attribute__((address_space(1)))
However currently this information is absent from the debug data in
the vmlinux binary. As a consequence, bpf_arena_* kfuncs declarations
in vmlinux.h (produced by bpftool) do not match prototypes expected by
the BPF programs attempting to use these functions.
Introduce a set of kfunc flags to mark relevant types as bpf_arena
pointers. The flags then can be detected by pahole when generating BTF
from vmlinux's DWARF, allowing it to emit corresponding BTF type tags
for the marked kfuncs.
With recently proposed BTF extension [2], these type tags will be
processed by bpftool when dumping vmlinux.h, and corresponding
compiler attributes will be added to the declarations.

Refactor get_constant_map_key() to disambiguate the constant key
value from potential error values. In the case that the key is
negative, it could be confused for an error.
It's not currently an issue, as the verifier seems to track s32 spills
as u32. So even if the program wrongly uses a negative value for an
arraymap key, the verifier just thinks it's an impossibly high value
which gets correctly discarded.

Previously, we were trying to extract constant map keys for all
bpf_map_lookup_elem(), regardless of map type. This is an issue if the
map has a u64 key and the value is very high, as it can be interpreted
as a negative signed value. This in turn is treated as an error value by
check_func_arg() which causes a valid program to be incorrectly
rejected.
Fix by only extracting constant map keys for relevant maps. This fix
works because nullness elision is only allowed for {PERCPU_}ARRAY maps,
and keys for these are within u32 range. See next commit for an example
via selftest.

In commit 1611603537 ("bpf: Create argument information for nullable arguments."),
it introduced a "__nullable" tagging at the argument name of a
stub function. Some background on the commit:
it requires to tag the stub function instead of directly tagging
the "ops" of a struct. This is because the btf func_proto of the "ops"
does not have the argument name and the "__nullable" is tagged at
the argument name.
To find the stub function of a "ops", it currently relies on a naming
convention on the stub function "st_ops__ops_name".
e.g. tcp_congestion_ops__ssthresh. However, the new kernel
sub system implementing bpf_struct_ops have missed this and
have been surprised that the "__nullable" and the to-be-landed
"__ref" tagging was not effective.
One option would be to give a warning whenever the stub function does
not follow the naming convention, regardless if it requires arg tagging
or not.
Instead, this patch uses the kallsyms_lookup approach and removes
the requirement on the naming convention. The st_ops->cfi_stubs has
all the stub function kernel addresses. kallsyms_lookup() is used to
lookup the function name. With the function name, BTF can be used to
find the BTF func_proto. The existing "__nullable" arg name searching
logic will then fall through.
One notable change is,
if it failed in kallsyms_lookup or it failed in looking up the stub
function name from the BTF, the bpf_struct_ops registration will fail.
This is different from the previous behavior that it silently ignored
the "st_ops__ops_name" function not found error.
The "tcp_congestion_ops", "sched_ext_ops", and "hid_bpf_ops" can still be
registered successfully after this patch. There is struct_ops_maybe_null
selftest to cover the "__nullable" tagging.
Other minor changes:
1. Removed the "%s__%s" format from the pr_warn because the naming
convention is removed.
2. The existing bpf_struct_ops_supported() is also moved earlier
because prepare_arg_info needs to use it to decide if the
stub function is NULL before calling the prepare_arg_info.

The following commit
bc235cdb42 ("bpf: Prevent deadlock from recursive bpf_task_storage_[get|delete]")
first introduced deadlock prevention for fentry/fexit programs attaching
on bpf_task_storage helpers. That commit also employed the logic in map
free path in its v6 version.
Later bpf_cgrp_storage was first introduced in
c4bcfb38a9 ("bpf: Implement cgroup storage available to non-cgroup-attached bpf progs")
which faces the same issue as bpf_task_storage, instead of its busy
counter, NULL was passed to bpf_local_storage_map_free() which opened
a window to cause deadlock:

Record the id of the cgroup the current task belonging
to in this hash map, using the address of the cgroup
as the map key.
- cgrpa (BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGRP_STORAGE)
If current task is a kworker, lookup the above hash
map using function parameter @owner as the key to get
its corresponding cgroup id which is then used to get
a trusted pointer to the cgroup through
bpf_cgroup_from_id(). This trusted pointer can then
be passed to bpf_cgrp_storage_get() to finally trigger
the deadlock issue.
- B: SEC("tp_btf/sys_enter")
- cgrpb (BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGRP_STORAGE)
The only purpose of this prog is to fill Prog A's
hash map by calling bpf_cgrp_storage_get() for as
many userspace tasks as possible.
Steps to reproduce:
- Run A;
- while (true) { Run B; Destroy B; }
Fix this issue by passing its busy counter to the free procedure so
it can be properly incremented before storage/smap locking.

We use map->freeze_mutex to prevent races between map_freeze() and
memory mapping BPF map contents with writable permissions. The way we
naively do this means we'll hold freeze_mutex for entire duration of all
the mm and VMA manipulations, which is completely unnecessary. This can
potentially also lead to deadlocks, as reported by syzbot in [0].
So, instead, hold freeze_mutex only during writeability checks, bump
(proactively) "write active" count for the map, unlock the mutex and
proceed with mmap logic. And only if something went wrong during mmap
logic, then undo that "write active" counter increment.

For all BPF maps we ensure that VM_MAYWRITE is cleared when
memory-mapping BPF map contents as initially read-only VMA. This is
because in some cases BPF verifier relies on the underlying data to not
be modified afterwards by user space, so once something is mapped
read-only, it shouldn't be re-mmap'ed as read-write.
As such, it's not necessary to check VM_MAYWRITE in bpf_map_mmap() and
map->ops->map_mmap() callbacks: VM_WRITE should be consistently set for
read-write mappings, and if VM_WRITE is not set, there is no way for
user space to upgrade read-only mapping to read-write one.
This patch cleans up this VM_WRITE vs VM_MAYWRITE handling within
bpf_map_mmap(), which is an entry point for any BPF map mmap()-ing
logic. We also drop unnecessary sanitization of VM_MAYWRITE in BPF
ringbuf's map_mmap() callback implementation, as it is already performed
by common code in bpf_map_mmap().
Note, though, that in bpf_map_mmap_{open,close}() callbacks we can't
drop VM_MAYWRITE use, because it's possible (and is outside of
subsystem's control) to have initially read-write memory mapping, which
is subsequently dropped to read-only by user space through mprotect().
In such case, from BPF verifier POV it's read-write data throughout the
lifetime of BPF map, and is counted as "active writer".
But its VMAs will start out as VM_WRITE|VM_MAYWRITE, then mprotect() can
change it to just VM_MAYWRITE (and no VM_WRITE), so when its finally
munmap()'ed and bpf_map_mmap_close() is called, vm_flags will be just
VM_MAYWRITE, but we still need to decrement active writer count with
bpf_map_write_active_dec() as it's still considered to be a read-write
mapping by the rest of BPF subsystem.
Similar reasoning applies to bpf_map_mmap_open(), which is called
whenever mmap(), munmap(), and/or mprotect() forces mm subsystem to
split original VMA into multiple discontiguous VMAs.
Memory-mapping handling is a bit tricky, yes.

Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
It's coming late in the merge cycle as there are a number of merge
conflicts with your tree now, and I wanted to make sure they were
working properly. To resolve them, look in linux-next, and I will send
the "fixup" patch as a response to the pull request.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least
one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on
tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next
use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things
in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon".

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() along with the alloc_pages_bulk_list() function.
Now that only the *_array() flavour of the API remains, we can do the
following renaming (along with the _noprof() ones):
alloc_pages_bulk_array -> alloc_pages_bulk
alloc_pages_bulk_array_mempolicy -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy
alloc_pages_bulk_array_node -> alloc_pages_bulk_node

"A smaller than usual release cycle.
The main changes are:
- Prepare selftest to run with GCC-BPF backend (Ihor Solodrai)
In addition to LLVM-BPF runs the BPF CI now runs GCC-BPF in compile
only mode. Half of the tests are failing, since support for
btf_decl_tag is still WIP, but this is a great milestone.
- Convert various samples/bpf to selftests/bpf/test_progs format
(Alexis Lothoré and Bastien Curutchet)
- Teach verifier to recognize that array lookup with constant
in-range index will always succeed (Daniel Xu)
- Cleanup migrate disable scope in BPF maps (Hou Tao)
- Fix bpf_timer destroy path in PREEMPT_RT (Hou Tao)
- Always use bpf_mem_alloc in bpf_local_storage in PREEMPT_RT (Martin
KaFai Lau)
- Refactor verifier lock support (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
This is a prerequisite for upcoming resilient spin lock.
- Remove excessive 'may_goto +0' instructions in the verifier that
LLVM leaves when unrolls the loops (Yonghong Song)
- Remove unhelpful bpf_probe_write_user() warning message (Marco

Since 'may_goto 0' insns are actually no-op, let us remove them.
Otherwise, verifier will generate code like
/* r10 - 8 stores the implicit loop count */
r11 = *(u64 *)(r10 -8)
if r11 == 0x0 goto pc+2
r11 -= 1
*(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r11
which is the pure overhead.
The following code patterns (from the previous commit) are also
handled:
may_goto 2
may_goto 1
may_goto 0
With this commit, the above three 'may_goto' insns are all

Commit 011832b97b ("bpf: Introduce may_goto instruction") added support
for may_goto insn. The 'may_goto 0' insn is disallowed since the insn is
equivalent to a nop as both branch will go to the next insn.
But it is possible that compiler transformation may generate 'may_goto 0'
insn. Emil Tsalapatis from Meta reported such a case which caused
verification failure. For example, for the following code,
int i, tmp[3];
for (i = 0; i < 3 && can_loop; i++)
tmp[i] = 0;
...
clang 20 may generate code like
may_goto 2;
may_goto 1;
may_goto 0;
r1 = 0; /* tmp[0] = 0; */
r2 = 0; /* tmp[1] = 0; */
r3 = 0; /* tmp[2] = 0; */
Let us permit 'may_goto 0' insn to avoid verification failure for codes
like the above.

During the update procedure, when overwrite element in a pre-allocated
htab, the freeing of old_element is protected by the bucket lock. The
reason why the bucket lock is necessary is that the old_element has
already been stashed in htab->extra_elems after alloc_htab_elem()
returns. If freeing the old_element after the bucket lock is unlocked,
the stashed element may be reused by concurrent update procedure and the
freeing of old_element will run concurrently with the reuse of the
old_element. However, the invocation of check_and_free_fields() may
acquire a spin-lock which violates the lockdep rule because its caller
has already held a raw-spin-lock (bucket lock). The following warning
will be reported when such race happens:

It seems feasible to break the reuse and refill of per-cpu extra_elems
into two independent parts: reuse the per-cpu extra_elems with bucket
lock being held and refill the old_element as per-cpu extra_elems after
the bucket lock is unlocked. However, it will make the concurrent
overwrite procedures on the same CPU return unexpected -E2BIG error when
the map is full.
Therefore, the patch fixes the lock problem by breaking the cancelling
of bpf_timer into two steps for PREEMPT_RT:
1) use hrtimer_try_to_cancel() and check its return value
2) if the timer is running, use hrtimer_cancel() through a kworker to
cancel it again
Considering that the current implementation of hrtimer_cancel() will try
to acquire a being held softirq_expiry_lock when the current timer is
running, these steps above are reasonable. However, it also has
downside. When the timer is running, the cancelling of the timer is
delayed when releasing the last map uref. The delay is also fixable
(e.g., break the cancelling of bpf timer into two parts: one part in
locked scope, another one in unlocked scope), it can be revised later if
necessary.
It is a bit hard to decide the right fix tag. One reason is that the
problem depends on PREEMPT_RT which is enabled in v6.12. Considering the
softirq_expiry_lock lock exists since v5.4 and bpf_timer is introduced
in v5.15, the bpf_timer commit is used in the fixes tag and an extra
depends-on tag is added to state the dependency on PREEMPT_RT.
Fixes: b00628b1c7 ("bpf: Introduce bpf timers.")
Depends-on: v6.12+ with PREEMPT_RT enabled

The running context of __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem() has already

When bpf_timer is used in LRU hash map, calling check_and_free_fields()
in htab_lru_map_delete_node() will invoke bpf_timer_cancel_and_free() to
free the bpf_timer. If the timer is running on other CPUs,
hrtimer_cancel() will invoke hrtimer_cancel_wait_running() to spin on
current CPU to wait for the completion of the hrtimer callback.
Considering that the deletion has already acquired a raw-spin-lock
(bucket lock). To reduce the time holding the bucket lock, move the
invocation of check_and_free_fields() out of bucket lock. However,
because htab_lru_map_delete_node() is invoked with LRU raw spin lock
being held, the freeing of special fields still happens in a locked
scope.

This commit allows progs to elide a null check on statically known map
lookup keys. In other words, if the verifier can statically prove that
the lookup will be in-bounds, allow the prog to drop the null check.
This is useful for two reasons:
1. Large numbers of nullness checks (especially when they cannot fail)
unnecessarily pushes prog towards BPF_COMPLEXITY_LIMIT_JMP_SEQ.
2. It forms a tighter contract between programmer and verifier.
For (1), bpftrace is starting to make heavier use of percpu scratch
maps. As a result, for user scripts with large number of unrolled loops,
we are starting to hit jump complexity verification errors. These
percpu lookups cannot fail anyways, as we only use static key values.
Eliding nullness probably results in less work for verifier as well.
For (2), percpu scratch maps are often used as a larger stack, as the
currrent stack is limited to 512 bytes. In these situations, it is
desirable for the programmer to express: "this lookup should never fail,
and if it does, it means I messed up the code". By omitting the null
check, the programmer can "ask" the verifier to double check the logic.
Tests also have to be updated in sync with these changes, as the
verifier is more efficient with this change. Notable, iters.c tests had
to be changed to use a map type that still requires null checks, as it's
exercising verifier tracking logic w.r.t iterators.

Previously, the verifier was treating all PTR_TO_STACK registers passed
to a helper call as potentially written to by the helper. However, all
calls to check_stack_range_initialized() already have precise access type
information available.
Rather than treat ACCESS_HELPER as a proxy for BPF_WRITE, pass
enum bpf_access_type to check_stack_range_initialized() to more
precisely track helper arguments.
One benefit from this precision is that registers tracked as valid
spills and passed as a read-only helper argument remain tracked after
the call. Rather than being marked STACK_MISC afterwards.
An additional benefit is the verifier logs are also more precise. For
this particular error, users will enjoy a slightly clearer message. See
included selftest updates for examples.

It will be invoked through ->map_update_elem syscall or helpers for
storage map. Migration has already been disabled in these running
contexts.
(2) bpf_sk_storage_clone
It has already disabled migration before invoking bpf_selem_free().
(3) bpf_selem_free_list
bpf_selem_free_list() has three callers: bpf_selem_unlink_storage(),

migration when invoking bpf_selem_unlink() which invokes
bpf_selem_unlink_storage() and bpf_selem_free_list() correspondingly.
bpf_local_storage_update() has been analyzed as the first caller above.
bpf_local_storage_destroy() is invoked when freeing the local storage
for the kernel object. Now cgroup, task, inode and sock storage have
already disabled migration before invoking bpf_local_storage_destroy().

The freeing of all map elements may invoke bpf_obj_free_fields() to free
the special fields in the map value. Since these special fields may be
allocated from bpf memory allocator, migrate_{disable|enable} pairs are
necessary for the freeing of these special fields.
To simplify reasoning about when migrate_disable() is needed for the
freeing of these special fields, let the caller to guarantee migration
is disabled before invoking bpf_obj_free_fields(). Therefore, disabling
migration before calling ops->map_free() to simplify the freeing of map
values or special fields allocated from bpf memory allocator.
After disabling migration in bpf_map_free(), there is no need for
additional migration_{disable|enable} pairs in these ->map_free()
callbacks. Remove these redundant invocations.

There is a UAF report in the bpf_struct_ops when CONFIG_MODULES=n.
In particular, the report is on tcp_congestion_ops that has
a "struct module *owner" member.
For struct_ops that has a "struct module *owner" member,
it can be extended either by the regular kernel module or
by the bpf_struct_ops. bpf_try_module_get() will be used
to do the refcounting and different refcount is done
based on the owner pointer. When CONFIG_MODULES=n,
the btf_id of the "struct module" is missing:
WARN: resolve_btfids: unresolved symbol module
Thus, the bpf_try_module_get() cannot do the correct refcounting.
Not all subsystem's struct_ops requires the "struct module *owner" member.
e.g. the recent sched_ext_ops.
This patch is to disable bpf_struct_ops registration if
the struct_ops has the "struct module *" member and the
"struct module" btf_id is missing. The btf_type_is_fwd() helper
is moved to the btf.h header file for this test.
This has happened since the beginning of bpf_struct_ops which has gone
through many changes. The Fixes tag is set to a recent commit that this
patch can apply cleanly. Considering CONFIG_MODULES=n is not
common and the age of the issue, targeting for bpf-next also.

This patch improves (or maintains) the precision of register value tracking
in BPF_MUL across all possible inputs. It also simplifies
scalar32_min_max_mul() and scalar_min_max_mul().
As it stands, BPF_MUL is composed of three functions:
case BPF_MUL:
tnum_mul();
scalar32_min_max_mul();
scalar_min_max_mul();
The current implementation of scalar_min_max_mul() restricts the u64 input
ranges of dst_reg and src_reg to be within [0, U32_MAX]:
/* Both values are positive, so we can work with unsigned and
* copy the result to signed (unless it exceeds S64_MAX).
*/
if (umax_val > U32_MAX || dst_reg->umax_value > U32_MAX) {
/* Potential overflow, we know nothing */
__mark_reg64_unbounded(dst_reg);
return;
}
This restriction is done to avoid unsigned overflow, which could otherwise
wrap the result around 0, and leave an unsound output where umin > umax. We
also observe that limiting these u64 input ranges to [0, U32_MAX] leads to
a loss of precision. Consider the case where the u64 bounds of dst_reg are
[0, 2^34] and the u64 bounds of src_reg are [0, 2^2]. While the
multiplication of these two bounds doesn't overflow and is sound [0, 2^36],
the current scalar_min_max_mul() would set the entire register state to
unbounded.
Importantly, we update BPF_MUL to allow signed bound multiplication
(i.e. multiplying negative bounds) as well as allow u64 inputs to take on
values from [0, U64_MAX]. We perform signed multiplication on two bounds
[a,b] and [c,d] by multiplying every combination of the bounds
(i.e. a*c, a*d, b*c, and b*d) and checking for overflow of each product. If
there is an overflow, we mark the signed bounds unbounded [S64_MIN, S64_MAX].
In the case of no overflow, we take the minimum of these products to
be the resulting smin, and the maximum to be the resulting smax.
The key idea here is that if there’s no possibility of overflow, either
when multiplying signed bounds or unsigned bounds, we can safely multiply the
respective bounds; otherwise, we set the bounds that exhibit overflow
(during multiplication) to unbounded.
if (check_mul_overflow(*dst_umax, src_reg->umax_value, dst_umax) ||
(check_mul_overflow(*dst_umin, src_reg->umin_value, dst_umin))) {
/* Overflow possible, we know nothing */
*dst_umin = 0;
*dst_umax = U64_MAX;
}
...
Below, we provide an example BPF program (below) that exhibits the
imprecision in the current BPF_MUL, where the outputs are all unbounded. In
contrast, the updated BPF_MUL produces a bounded register state:
BPF_LD_IMM64(BPF_REG_1, 11),
BPF_LD_IMM64(BPF_REG_2, 4503599627370624),
BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_NEG, BPF_REG_2, 0),
BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_NEG, BPF_REG_2, 0),
BPF_ALU64_REG(BPF_AND, BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_2),
BPF_LD_IMM64(BPF_REG_3, 809591906117232263),
BPF_ALU64_REG(BPF_MUL, BPF_REG_3, BPF_REG_1),
BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_0, 1),

...
Finally, we proved the soundness of the new scalar_min_max_mul() and
scalar32_min_max_mul() functions. Typically, multiplication operations are
expensive to check with bitvector-based solvers. We were able to prove the
soundness of these functions using Non-Linear Integer Arithmetic (NIA)
theory. Additionally, using Agni [2,3], we obtained the encodings for
scalar32_min_max_mul() and scalar_min_max_mul() in bitvector theory, and
were able to prove their soundness using 8-bit bitvectors (instead of
64-bit bitvectors that the functions actually use).
In conclusion, with this patch,
1. We were able to show that we can improve the overall precision of
BPF_MUL. We proved (using an SMT solver) that this new version of
BPF_MUL is at least as precise as the current version for all inputs
and more precise for some inputs.
2. We are able to prove the soundness of the new scalar_min_max_mul() and
scalar32_min_max_mul(). By leveraging the existing proof of tnum_mul
[1], we can say that the composition of these three functions within
BPF_MUL is sound.

Arguments to a raw tracepoint are tagged as trusted, which carries the
semantics that the pointer will be non-NULL. However, in certain cases,
a raw tracepoint argument may end up being NULL. More context about this
issue is available in [0].
Thus, there is a discrepancy between the reality, that raw_tp arguments can
actually be NULL, and the verifier's knowledge, that they are never NULL,
causing explicit NULL check branch to be dead code eliminated.
A previous attempt [1], i.e. the second fixed commit, was made to
simulate symbolic execution as if in most accesses, the argument is a
non-NULL raw_tp, except for conditional jumps. This tried to suppress
branch prediction while preserving compatibility, but surfaced issues
with production programs that were difficult to solve without increasing
verifier complexity. A more complete discussion of issues and fixes is
available at [2].
Fix this by maintaining an explicit list of tracepoints where the
arguments are known to be NULL, and mark the positional arguments as
PTR_MAYBE_NULL. Additionally, capture the tracepoints where arguments
are known to be ERR_PTR, and mark these arguments as scalar values to
prevent potential dereference.
Each hex digit is used to encode NULL-ness (0x1) or ERR_PTR-ness (0x2),
shifted by the zero-indexed argument number x 4. This can be represented
as follows:
1st arg: 0x1
2nd arg: 0x10
3rd arg: 0x100
... and so on (likewise for ERR_PTR case).
In the future, an automated pass will be used to produce such a list, or
insert __nullable annotations automatically for tracepoints. Each
compilation unit will be analyzed and results will be collated to find
whether a tracepoint pointer is definitely not null, maybe null, or an
unknown state where verifier conservatively marks it PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
A proof of concept of this tool from Eduard is available at [3].
Note that in case we don't find a specification in the raw_tp_null_args
array and the tracepoint belongs to a kernel module, we will
conservatively mark the arguments as PTR_MAYBE_NULL. This is because
unlike for in-tree modules, out-of-tree module tracepoints may pass NULL
freely to the tracepoint. We don't protect against such tracepoints
passing ERR_PTR (which is uncommon anyway), lest we mark all such
arguments as SCALAR_VALUE.
While we are it, let's adjust the test raw_tp_null to not perform
dereference of the skb->mark, as that won't be allowed anymore, and make
it more robust by using inline assembly to test the dead code
elimination behavior, which should still stay the same.

This patch reverts commit
cb4158ce8e ("bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL"). The
patch was well-intended and meant to be as a stop-gap fixing branch
prediction when the pointer may actually be NULL at runtime. Eventually,
it was supposed to be replaced by an automated script or compiler pass
detecting possibly NULL arguments and marking them accordingly.
However, it caused two main issues observed for production programs and
failed to preserve backwards compatibility. First, programs relied on
the verifier not exploring == NULL branch when pointer is not NULL, thus
they started failing with a 'dereference of scalar' error. Next,
allowing raw_tp arguments to be modified surfaced the warning in the
verifier that warns against reg->off when PTR_MAYBE_NULL is set.
More information, context, and discusson on both problems is available
in [0]. Overall, this approach had several shortcomings, and the fixes
would further complicate the verifier's logic, and the entire masking
scheme would have to be removed eventually anyway.
Hence, revert the patch in preparation of a better fix avoiding these
issues to replace this commit.

The fd_array attribute of the BPF_PROG_LOAD syscall may contain a set
of file descriptors: maps or btfs. This field was introduced as a
sparse array. Introduce a new attribute, fd_array_cnt, which, if
present, indicates that the fd_array is a continuous array of the
corresponding length.
If fd_array_cnt is non-zero, then every map in the fd_array will be
bound to the program, as if it was used by the program. This
functionality is similar to the BPF_PROG_BIND_MAP syscall, but such
maps can be used by the verifier during the program load.

Move some inlined map/prog compatibility checks from the
resolve_pseudo_ldimm64() function to the dedicated
check_map_prog_compatibility() function. Call the latter function
from the add_used_map_from_fd() function directly.
This simplifies code and optimizes logic a bit, as before these
changes the check_map_prog_compatibility() function was executed on
every map usage, which doesn't make sense, as it doesn't include any
per-instruction checks, only map type vs. prog type.

Initially, xdp_frame::mem.id was used to search for the corresponding
&page_pool to return the page correctly.
However, after that struct page was extended to have a direct pointer
to its PP (netmem has it as well), further keeping of this field makes
no sense. xdp_return_frame_bulk() still used it to do a lookup, and
this leftover is now removed.
Remove xdp_frame::mem and replace it with ::mem_type, as only memory
type still matters and we need to know it to be able to free the frame
correctly.
As a cute side effect, we can now make every scalar field in &xdp_frame
of 4 byte width, speeding up accesses to them.

Robert Morris reported the following program type which passes the
verifier in [0]:
SEC("struct_ops/bpf_cubic_init")
void BPF_PROG(bpf_cubic_init, struct sock *sk)
{
asm volatile("r2 = *(u16*)(r1 + 0)"); // verifier should demand u64
asm volatile("*(u32 *)(r2 +1504) = 0"); // 1280 in some configs
}
The second line may or may not work, but the first instruction shouldn't
pass, as it's a narrow load into the context structure of the struct ops
callback. The code falls back to btf_ctx_access to ensure correctness
and obtaining the types of pointers. Ensure that the size of the access
is correctly checked to be 8 bytes, otherwise the verifier thinks the
narrow load obtained a trusted BTF pointer and will permit loads/stores
as it sees fit.
Perform the check on size after we've verified that the load is for a
pointer field, as for scalar values narrow loads are fine. Access to
structs passed as arguments to a BPF program are also treated as
scalars, therefore no adjustment is needed in their case.
Existing verifier selftests are broken by this change, but because they
were incorrect. Verifier tests for d_path were performing narrow load
into context to obtain path pointer, had this program actually run it
would cause a crash. The same holds for verifier_btf_ctx_access tests.

When processing calls to global sub-programs, verifier decides whether
to invalidate all packet pointers in current state depending on the
changes_pkt_data property of the global sub-program.
Because of this, an extension program replacing a global sub-program
must be compatible with changes_pkt_data property of the sub-program
being replaced.
This commit:
- adds changes_pkt_data flag to struct bpf_prog_aux:
- this flag is set in check_cfg() for main sub-program;
- in jit_subprogs() for other sub-programs;
- modifies bpf_check_attach_btf_id() to check changes_pkt_data flag;
- moves call to check_attach_btf_id() after the call to check_cfg(),
because it needs changes_pkt_data flag to be set:
bpf_check:
... ...
- check_attach_btf_id resolve_pseudo_ldimm64
resolve_pseudo_ldimm64 --> bpf_prog_is_offloaded
bpf_prog_is_offloaded check_cfg
check_cfg + check_attach_btf_id
... ...
The following fields are set by check_attach_btf_id():
- env->ops
- prog->aux->attach_btf_trace
- prog->aux->attach_func_name
- prog->aux->attach_func_proto
- prog->aux->dst_trampoline
- prog->aux->mod
- prog->aux->saved_dst_attach_type
- prog->aux->saved_dst_prog_type
- prog->expected_attach_type
Neither of these fields are used by resolve_pseudo_ldimm64() or
bpf_prog_offload_verifier_prep() (for netronome and netdevsim
drivers), so the reordering is safe.

When processing calls to certain helpers, verifier invalidates all
packet pointers in a current state. For example, consider the
following program:
__attribute__((__noinline__))
long skb_pull_data(struct __sk_buff *sk, __u32 len)
{
return bpf_skb_pull_data(sk, len);
}
SEC("tc")
int test_invalidate_checks(struct __sk_buff *sk)
{
int *p = (void *)(long)sk->data;
if ((void *)(p + 1) > (void *)(long)sk->data_end) return TCX_DROP;
skb_pull_data(sk, 0);
*p = 42;
return TCX_PASS;
}
After a call to bpf_skb_pull_data() the pointer 'p' can't be used
safely. See function filter.c:bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() for a list
of such helpers.
At the moment verifier invalidates packet pointers when processing
helper function calls, and does not traverse global sub-programs when
processing calls to global sub-programs. This means that calls to
helpers done from global sub-programs do not invalidate pointers in
the caller state. E.g. the program above is unsafe, but is not
rejected by verifier.
This commit fixes the omission by computing field
bpf_subprog_info->changes_pkt_data for each sub-program before main
verification pass.
changes_pkt_data should be set if:
- subprogram calls helper for which bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data
returns true;
- subprogram calls a global function,
for which bpf_subprog_info->changes_pkt_data should be set.
The verifier.c:check_cfg() pass is modified to compute this
information. The commit relies on depth first instruction traversal
done by check_cfg() and absence of recursive function calls:
- check_cfg() would eventually visit every call to subprogram S in a
state when S is fully explored;
- when S is fully explored:
- every direct helper call within S is explored
(and thus changes_pkt_data is set if needed);
- every call to subprogram S1 called by S was visited with S1 fully
explored (and thus S inherits changes_pkt_data from S1).
The downside of such approach is that dead code elimination is not
taken into account: if a helper call inside global function is dead
because of current configuration, verifier would conservatively assume
that the call occurs for the purpose of the changes_pkt_data
computation.

no blocking operation during the update of LPM trie. Therefore, change
trie->lock from spinlock_t to raw_spinlock_t to make LPM trie usable in
atomic context, even on RT kernels.
The max value of prefixlen is 2048. Therefore, update or deletion
operations will find the target after at most 2048 comparisons.

A bpf program attached to trace_contention_end() triggers after
acquiring &n->list_lock. The program invokes trie_delete_elem(), which
then acquires trie->lock. However, it is possible that another
process is invoking trie_update_elem(). trie_update_elem() will acquire
trie->lock first, then invoke kmalloc_node(). kmalloc_node() may invoke
get_partial_node() and try to acquire &n->list_lock (not necessarily the
same lock object). Therefore, lockdep warns about the circular locking
dependency.
Invoking kmalloc() before acquiring trie->lock could fix the warning.
However, since BPF programs call be invoked from any context (e.g.,
through kprobe/tracepoint/fentry), there may still be lock ordering
problems for internal locks in kmalloc() or trie->lock itself.
To eliminate these potential lock ordering problems with kmalloc()'s
internal locks, replacing kmalloc()/kfree()/kfree_rcu() with equivalent
BPF memory allocator APIs that can be invoked in any context. The lock
ordering problems with trie->lock (e.g., reentrance) will be handled
separately.
Three aspects of this change require explanation:
1. Intermediate and leaf nodes are allocated from the same allocator.
Since the value size of LPM trie is usually small, using a single
alocator reduces the memory overhead of the BPF memory allocator.
2. Leaf nodes are allocated before disabling IRQs. This handles cases
where leaf_size is large (e.g., > 4KB - 8) and updates require
intermediate node allocation. If leaf nodes were allocated in
IRQ-disabled region, the free objects in BPF memory allocator would not
be refilled timely and the intermediate node allocation may fail.
3. Paired migrate_{disable|enable}() calls for node alloc and free. The
BPF memory allocator uses per-CPU struct internally, these paired calls
are necessary to guarantee correctness.

trie_get_next_key() uses node->prefixlen == key->prefixlen to identify
an exact match, However, it is incorrect because when the target key
doesn't fully match the found node (e.g., node->prefixlen != matchlen),
these two nodes may also have the same prefixlen. It will return
expected result when the passed key exist in the trie. However when a
recently-deleted key or nonexistent key is passed to
trie_get_next_key(), it may skip keys and return incorrect result.
Fix it by using node->prefixlen == matchlen to identify exact matches.
When the condition is true after the search, it also implies
node->prefixlen equals key->prefixlen, otherwise, the search would
return NULL instead.

When "node->prefixlen == matchlen" is true, it means that the node is
fully matched. If "node->prefixlen == key->prefixlen" is false, it means
the prefix length of key is greater than the prefix length of node,
otherwise, matchlen will not be equal with node->prefixlen. However, it
also implies that the prefix length of node must be less than

Therefore, "node->prefixlen == trie->max_prefixlen" will always be false

When CAP_PERFMON and CAP_SYS_ADMIN (allow_ptr_leaks) are disabled, the
verifier aims to reject partial overwrite on an 8-byte stack slot that
contains a spilled pointer.
However, in such a scenario, it rejects all partial stack overwrites as
long as the targeted stack slot is a spilled register, because it does
not check if the stack slot is a spilled pointer.
Incomplete checks will result in the rejection of valid programs, which
spill narrower scalar values onto scalar slots, as shown below.

processed 2 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 0 total_states 0 peak_states 0 mark_read 0.
Fix this by expanding the check to not consider spilled scalar registers

The relaxation only makes sense when env->allow_ptr_leaks is true.
However, such conversion in privileged mode becomes unnecessary, as
invalid slots can be read without being upgraded to STACK_MISC.
Currently, the condition is inverted (i.e. checking for true instead of
false), simply remove it to restore correct behavior.

The verifier log when leaking resources on BPF_EXIT may be a bit
confusing, as it's a problem only when finally existing from the main
prog, not from any of the subprogs. Hence, update the verifier error
string and the corresponding selftests matching on it.

Teach the verifier about IRQ-disabled sections through the introduction
of two new kfuncs, bpf_local_irq_save, to save IRQ state and disable
them, and bpf_local_irq_restore, to restore IRQ state and enable them
back again.
For the purposes of tracking the saved IRQ state, the verifier is taught
about a new special object on the stack of type STACK_IRQ_FLAG. This is
a 8 byte value which saves the IRQ flags which are to be passed back to
the IRQ restore kfunc.
Renumber the enums for REF_TYPE_* to simplify the check in
find_lock_state, filtering out non-lock types as they grow will become
cumbersome and is unecessary.
To track a dynamic number of IRQ-disabled regions and their associated
saved states, a new resource type RES_TYPE_IRQ is introduced, which its
state management functions: acquire_irq_state and release_irq_state,
taking advantage of the refactoring and clean ups made in earlier
commits.
One notable requirement of the kernel's IRQ save and restore API is that
they cannot happen out of order. For this purpose, when releasing reference
we keep track of the prev_id we saw with REF_TYPE_IRQ. Since reference
states are inserted in increasing order of the index, this is used to
remember the ordering of acquisitions of IRQ saved states, so that we
maintain a logical stack in acquisition order of resource identities,
and can enforce LIFO ordering when restoring IRQ state. The top of the
stack is maintained using bpf_verifier_state's active_irq_id.
To maintain the stack property when releasing reference states, we need
to modify release_reference_state to instead shift the remaining array
left using memmove instead of swapping deleted element with last that
might break the ordering. A selftest to test this subtle behavior is
added in late patches.
The logic to detect initialized and unitialized irq flag slots, marking
and unmarking is similar to how it's done for iterators. No additional
checks are needed in refsafe for REF_TYPE_IRQ, apart from the usual
check_id satisfiability check on the ref[i].id. We have to perform the
same check_ids check on state->active_irq_id as well.
To ensure we don't get assigned REF_TYPE_PTR by default after
acquire_reference_state, if someone forgets to assign the type, let's
also renumber the enum ref_state_type. This way any unassigned types
get caught by refsafe's default switch statement, don't assume
REF_TYPE_PTR by default.
The kfuncs themselves are plain wrappers over local_irq_save and
local_irq_restore macros.

In preparation for introducing support for more reference types which
have to add and remove reference state, refactor the
acquire_reference_state and release_reference_state functions to share
common logic.
The acquire_reference_state function simply handles growing the acquired
refs and returning the pointer to the new uninitialized element, which
can be filled in by the caller.
The release_reference_state function simply erases a reference state
entry in the acquired_refs array and shrinks it. The callers are
responsible for finding the suitable element by matching on various
fields of the reference state and requesting deletion through this
function. It is not supposed to be called directly.
Existing callers of release_reference_state were using it to find and
remove state for a given ref_obj_id without scrubbing the associated
registers in the verifier state. Introduce release_reference_nomark to
provide this functionality and convert callers. We now use this new
release_reference_nomark function within release_reference as well.
It needs to operate on a verifier state instead of taking verifier env
as mark_ptr_or_null_regs requires operating on verifier state of the
two branches of a NULL condition check, therefore env->cur_state cannot
be used directly.

Currently, state for RCU read locks and preemption is in
bpf_verifier_state, while locks and pointer reference state remains in
bpf_func_state. There is no particular reason to keep the latter in
bpf_func_state. Additionally, it is copied into a new frame's state and
copied back to the caller frame's state everytime the verifier processes
a pseudo call instruction. This is a bit wasteful, given this state is
global for a given verification state / path.
Move all resource and reference related state in bpf_verifier_state
structure in this patch, in preparation for introducing new reference
state types in the future.
Since we switch print_verifier_state and friends to print using vstate,
we now need to explicitly pass in the verifier state from the caller
along with the bpf_func_state, so modify the prototype and callers to do
so. To ensure func state matches the verifier state when we're printing
data, take in frame number instead of bpf_func_state pointer instead and
avoid inconsistencies induced by the caller.

Andrii spotted that process_dynptr_func's rejection of incorrect
argument register type will print an error string where argument numbers
are not zero-indexed, unlike elsewhere in the verifier. Fix this by
subtracting 1 from regno. The same scenario exists for iterator
messages. Fix selftest error strings that match on the exact argument
number while we're at it to ensure clean bisection.

Currently, KF_ARG_PTR_TO_ITER handling missed checking the reg->type and
ensuring it is PTR_TO_STACK. Instead of enforcing this in the caller of
process_iter_arg, move the check into it instead so that all callers
will gain the check by default. This is similar to process_dynptr_func.
An existing selftest in verifier_bits_iter.c fails due to this change,
but it's because it was passing a NULL pointer into iter_next helper and
getting an error further down the checks, but probably meant to pass an
uninitialized iterator on the stack (as is done in the subsequent test
below it). We will gain coverage for non-PTR_TO_STACK arguments in later
patches hence just change the declaration to zero-ed stack object.

Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of proc_handler
function pointers. All ctl_table struct arguments are const qualified in the

and passed through sysctl can be constified one-by-one. We kick the
constification off by qualifying user_table in kernel/ucount.c and expect all
the ctl_tables to be constified in the coming releases.
* Misc fixes
Adjust comments in two places to better reflect the code. Remove superfluous
dput calls. Remove Luis from sysctl maintainership. Replace comments about
holding a lock with calls to lockdep_assert_held.
* Testing
All these went through 0-day and they have all been in linux-next for at
least 1 month (since Oct-24). I also rand these through the sysctl selftest
for x86_64.

The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an
unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make
this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in
question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow
protection.
However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory
barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and
also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts
of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack.
This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic
library.
This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent
improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads.
- Add a fastpath for find_next_zero_bit(). Skip 2-levels searching
via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that
contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8%
and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160.
- Conditionally clear full_fds_bits since it's very likely that a bit
in full_fds_bits has been cleared during __clear_open_fds(). This
improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read up to 13%, and write up to 5% on
Intel ICX 160.
- Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to
lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid
once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're
always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing
helper and remove the legacy variants.
- Remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h>.
- Avoid cmpxchg() in close_files() as nobody else has a reference to
the files_struct at that point.
- Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it.
- Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files().
- Merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() into one.

Instead of allocating and copying instruction history each time we
enqueue child verifier state, switch to a model where we use one common
dynamically sized array of instruction history entries across all states.
The key observation for proving this is correct is that instruction
history is only relevant while state is active, which means it either is
a current state (and thus we are actively modifying instruction history
and no other state can interfere with us) or we are checkpointed state
with some children still active (either enqueued or being current).
In the latter case our portion of instruction history is finalized and
won't change or grow, so as long as we keep it immutable until the state
is finalized, we are good.
Now, when state is finalized and is put into state hash for potentially
future pruning lookups, instruction history is not used anymore. This is
because instruction history is only used by precision marking logic, and
we never modify precision markings for finalized states.
So, instead of each state having its own small instruction history, we
keep a global dynamically-sized instruction history, where each state in
current DFS path from root to active state remembers its portion of
instruction history. Current state can append to this history, but
cannot modify any of its parent histories.
Async callback state enqueueing, while logically detached from parent
state, still is part of verification backtracking tree, so has to follow
the same schema as normal state checkpoints.
Because the insn_hist array can be grown through realloc, states don't
keep pointers, they instead maintain two indices, [start, end), into
global instruction history array. End is exclusive index, so
`start == end` means there is no relevant instruction history.
This eliminates a lot of allocations and minimizes overall memory usage.
For instance, running a worst-case test from [0] (but without the
heuristics-based fix [1]), it took 12.5 minutes until we get -ENOMEM.
With the changes in this patch the whole test succeeds in 10 minutes
(very slow, so heuristics from [1] is important, of course).
To further validate correctness, veristat-based comparison was performed for
Meta production BPF objects and BPF selftests objects. In both cases there
were no differences *at all* in terms of verdict or instruction and state
counts, providing a good confidence in the change.
Having this low-memory-overhead solution of keeping dynamic
per-instruction history cheaply opens up some new possibilities, like
keeping extra information for literally every single validated
instruction. This will be used for simplifying precision backpropagation
logic in follow up patches.

Without kernel symbols for struct_ops trampoline, the unwinder may
produce unexpected stacktraces.
For example, the x86 ORC and FP unwinders check if an IP is in kernel
text by verifying the presence of the IP's kernel symbol. When a
struct_ops trampoline address is encountered, the unwinder stops due
to the absence of symbol, resulting in an incomplete stacktrace that
consists only of direct and indirect child functions called from the
trampoline.
The arm64 unwinder is another example. While the arm64 unwinder can
proceed across a struct_ops trampoline address, the corresponding
symbol name is displayed as "unknown", which is confusing.
Thus, add kernel symbol for struct_ops trampoline. The name is
bpf__<struct_ops_name>_<member_name>, where <struct_ops_name> is the
type name of the struct_ops, and <member_name> is the name of
the member that the trampoline is linked to.

For struct_ops progs, whether a particular prog uses private stack
depends on prog->aux->priv_stack_requested setting before actual
insn-level verification for that prog. One particular implementation
is to piggyback on struct_ops->check_member(). The next patch has
an example for this. The struct_ops->check_member() sets
prog->aux->priv_stack_requested to be true which enables private stack
usage.
The struct_ops prog follows the same rule as kprobe/tracing progs after
function bpf_enable_priv_stack(). For example, even a struct_ops prog
requests private stack, it could still use normal kernel stack if
the stack size is small (< 64 bytes).
Similar to tracing progs, nested same cpu same prog run will be skipped.
A field (recursion_detected()) is added to bpf_prog_aux structure.
If bpf_prog->aux->recursion_detected is implemented by the struct_ops
subsystem and nested same cpu/prog happens, the function will be
triggered to report an error, collect related info, etc.

If private stack is used by any subprog, set that subprog
prog->aux->jits_use_priv_stack to be true so later jit can allocate
private stack for that subprog properly.
Also set env->prog->aux->jits_use_priv_stack to be true if
any subprog uses private stack. This is a use case for a
single main prog (no subprogs) to use private stack, and
also a use case for later struct-ops progs where
env->prog->aux->jits_use_priv_stack will enable recursion
check if any subprog uses private stack.

Private stack will be allocated with percpu allocator in jit time.
To avoid complexity at runtime, only one copy of private stack is
available per cpu per prog. So runtime recursion check is necessary
to avoid stack corruption.
Current private stack only supports kprobe/perf_event/tp/raw_tp
which has recursion check in the kernel, and prog types that use
bpf trampoline recursion check. For trampoline related prog types,
currently only tracing progs have recursion checking.
To avoid complexity, all async_cb subprogs use normal kernel stack
including those subprogs used by both main prog subtree and async_cb
subtree. Any prog having tail call also uses kernel stack.
To avoid jit penalty with private stack support, a subprog stack
size threshold is set such that only if the stack size is no less
than the threshold, private stack is supported. The current threshold
is 64 bytes. This avoids jit penality if the stack usage is small.
A useless 'continue' is also removed from a loop in func
check_max_stack_depth().

Logic to prevent callbacks from acquiring new references for the program
(i.e. leaving acquired references), and releasing caller references
(i.e. those acquired in parent frames) was introduced in commit
9d9d00ac29 ("bpf: Fix reference state management for synchronous callbacks").
This was necessary because back then, the verifier simulated each
callback once (that could potentially be executed N times, where N can
be zero). This meant that callbacks that left lingering resources or
cleared caller resources could do it more than once, operating on
undefined state or leaking memory.
With the fixes to callback verification in commit
ab5cfac139 ("bpf: verify callbacks as if they are called unknown number of times"),
all of this extra logic is no longer necessary. Hence, drop it as part
of this commit.

When bpf_spin_lock was introduced originally, there was deliberation on
whether to use an array of lock IDs, but since bpf_spin_lock is limited
to holding a single lock at any given time, we've been using a single ID
to identify the held lock.
In preparation for introducing spin locks that can be taken multiple
times, introduce support for acquiring multiple lock IDs. For this
purpose, reuse the acquired_refs array and store both lock and pointer
references. We tag the entry with REF_TYPE_PTR or REF_TYPE_LOCK to
disambiguate and find the relevant entry. The ptr field is used to track
the map_ptr or btf (for bpf_obj_new allocations) to ensure locks can be
matched with protected fields within the same "allocation", i.e.
bpf_obj_new object or map value.
The struct active_lock is changed to an int as the state is part of the
acquired_refs array, and we only need active_lock as a cheap way of
detecting lock presence.

One way to fix the lockdep warning is using raw_spinlock_t for
map_idr_lock as well. However, bpf_map_alloc_id() invokes
idr_alloc_cyclic() after acquiring map_idr_lock, it will trigger a
similar lockdep warning because the slab's lock (s->cpu_slab->lock) is
still a spinlock.
Instead of changing map_idr_lock's type, fix the issue by invoking
htab_put_fd_value() after htab_unlock_bucket(). However, only deferring
the invocation of htab_put_fd_value() is not enough, because the old map
pointers in htab of maps can not be saved during batched deletion.
Therefore, also defer the invocation of free_htab_elem(), so these
to-be-freed elements could be linked together similar to lru map.
There are four callers for ->map_fd_put_ptr:
(1) alloc_htab_elem() (through htab_put_fd_value())
It invokes ->map_fd_put_ptr() under a raw_spinlock_t. The invocation of
htab_put_fd_value() can not simply move after htab_unlock_bucket(),
because the old element has already been stashed in htab->extra_elems.
It may be reused immediately after htab_unlock_bucket() and the
invocation of htab_put_fd_value() after htab_unlock_bucket() may release
the newly-added element incorrectly. Therefore, saving the map pointer
of the old element for htab of maps before unlocking the bucket and
releasing the map_ptr after unlock. Beside the map pointer in the old
element, should do the same thing for the special fields in the old
element as well.
(2) free_htab_elem() (through htab_put_fd_value())
Its caller includes __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem(),
htab_map_delete_elem() and __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch().
For htab_map_delete_elem(), simply invoke free_htab_elem() after
htab_unlock_bucket(). For __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch(), just
like lru map, linking the to-be-freed element into node_to_free list
and invoking free_htab_elem() for these element after unlock. It is safe
to reuse batch_flink as the link for node_to_free, because these
elements have been removed from the hash llist.
Because htab of maps doesn't support lookup_and_delete operation,
__htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem() doesn't have the problem, so kept
it as is.
(3) fd_htab_map_free()
It invokes ->map_fd_put_ptr without raw_spinlock_t.
(4) bpf_fd_htab_map_update_elem()
It invokes ->map_fd_put_ptr without raw_spinlock_t.
After moving free_htab_elem() outside htab bucket lock scope, using
pcpu_freelist_push() instead of __pcpu_freelist_push() to disable
the irq before freeing elements, and protecting the invocations of
bpf_mem_cache_free() with migrate_{disable|enable} pair.

Arguments to a raw tracepoint are tagged as trusted, which carries the
semantics that the pointer will be non-NULL. However, in certain cases,
a raw tracepoint argument may end up being NULL. More context about this
issue is available in [0].
Thus, there is a discrepancy between the reality, that raw_tp arguments
can actually be NULL, and the verifier's knowledge, that they are never
NULL, causing explicit NULL checks to be deleted, and accesses to such
pointers potentially crashing the kernel.
To fix this, mark raw_tp arguments as PTR_MAYBE_NULL, and then special
case the dereference and pointer arithmetic to permit it, and allow
passing them into helpers/kfuncs; these exceptions are made for raw_tp
programs only. Ensure that we don't do this when ref_obj_id > 0, as in
that case this is an acquired object and doesn't need such adjustment.
The reason we do mask_raw_tp_trusted_reg logic is because other will
recheck in places whether the register is a trusted_reg, and then
consider our register as untrusted when detecting the presence of the
PTR_MAYBE_NULL flag.
To allow safe dereference, we enable PROBE_MEM marking when we see loads
into trusted pointers with PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
While trusted raw_tp arguments can also be passed into helpers or kfuncs
where such broken assumption may cause issues, a future patch set will
tackle their case separately, as PTR_TO_BTF_ID (without PTR_TRUSTED) can
already be passed into helpers and causes similar problems. Thus, they
are left alone for now.
It is possible that these checks also permit passing non-raw_tp args
that are trusted PTR_TO_BTF_ID with null marking. In such a case,
allowing dereference when pointer is NULL expands allowed behavior, so
won't regress existing programs, and the case of passing these into
helpers is the same as above and will be dealt with later.
Also update the failure case in tp_btf_nullable selftest to capture the
new behavior, as the verifier will no longer cause an error when
directly dereference a raw tracepoint argument marked as __nullable.

There are similar checks for covering locks, references, RCU read
sections and preempt_disable sections in 3 places in the verifer, i.e.
for tail calls, bpf_ld_[abs, ind], and exit path (for BPF_EXIT and
bpf_throw). Unify all of these into a common check_resource_leak
function to avoid code duplication.
Also update the error strings in selftests to the new ones in the same
change to ensure clean bisection.

There are three situations when a program logically exits and transfers
control to the kernel or another program: bpf_throw, BPF_EXIT, and tail
calls. The former two check for any lingering locks and references, but
tail calls currently do not. Expand the checks to check for spin locks,
RCU read sections and preempt disabled sections.
Spin locks are indirectly preventing tail calls as function calls are
disallowed, but the checks for preemption and RCU are more relaxed,
hence ensure tail calls are prevented in their presence.

Now that kernel supports sleepable tracepoints, the fact that
bpf_probe_unregister() is asynchronous, i.e., that it doesn't wait for
any in-flight tracepoints to conclude before returning, we now need to
delay BPF raw tp link's deallocation and bpf_prog_put() of its
underlying BPF program (regardless of program's own sleepable semantics)
until after full RCU Tasks Trace GP. With that GP over, we'll have
a guarantee that no tracepoint can reach BPF link and thus its BPF program.
We use newly added tracepoint_is_faultable() check to know when this RCU
Tasks Trace GP is necessary and utilize BPF link's own sleepable flag
passed through bpf_link_init_sleepable() initializer.

BPF link's lifecycle protection scheme depends on both BPF hook and BPF
program. If *either* of those require RCU Tasks Trace GP, then we need
to go through a chain of GPs before putting BPF program refcount and
deallocating BPF link memory.
This patch adds bpf_link-specific sleepable flag, which can be set to
true even if underlying BPF program is not sleepable itself. If either
link->sleepable or link->prog->sleepable is true, we'll go through
a chain of RCU Tasks Trace GP and RCU GP before putting BPF program and
freeing memory.
This will be used to protect BPF link for sleepable (faultable) raw
tracepoints in the next patch.

In general, BPF link's underlying BPF program should be considered to be
reachable through attach hook -> link -> prog chain, and, pessimistically,
we have to assume that as long as link's memory is not safe to free,
attach hook's code might hold a pointer to BPF program and use it.
As such, it's not (generally) correct to put link's program early before
waiting for RCU GPs to go through. More eager bpf_prog_put() that we
currently do is mostly correct due to BPF program's release code doing
similar RCU GP waiting, but as will be shown in the following patches,
BPF program can be non-sleepable (and, thus, reliant on only "classic"
RCU GP), while BPF link's attach hook can have sleepable semantics and
needs to be protected by RCU Tasks Trace, and for such cases BPF link
has to go through RCU Tasks Trace + "classic" RCU GPs before being
deallocated. And so, if we put BPF program early, we might free BPF
program before we free BPF link, leading to use-after-free situation.
So, this patch defers bpf_prog_put() until we are ready to perform
bpf_link's deallocation. At worst, this delays BPF program freeing by
one extra RCU GP, but that seems completely acceptable. Alternatively,
we'd need more elaborate ways to determine BPF hook, BPF link, and BPF
program lifetimes, and how they relate to each other, which seems like
an unnecessary complication.
Note, for most BPF links we still will perform eager bpf_prog_put() and
link dealloc, so for those BPF links there are no observable changes
whatsoever. Only BPF links that use deferred dealloc might notice
slightly delayed freeing of BPF programs.
Also, to reduce code and logic duplication, extract program put + link
dealloc logic into bpf_link_dealloc() helper.

On 32-bit hosts (e.g., arm32), when a bpf program passes a u64 to
bpf_iter_bits_new(), bpf_iter_bits_new() will use bits_copy to store the
content of the u64. However, bits_copy is only 4 bytes, leading to stack
corruption.
The straightforward solution would be to replace u64 with unsigned long
in bpf_iter_bits_new(). However, this introduces confusion and problems
for 32-bit hosts because the size of ulong in bpf program is 8 bytes,
but it is treated as 4-bytes after passed to bpf_iter_bits_new().
Fix it by changing the type of both bits and bit_count from unsigned
long to u64. However, the change is not enough. The main reason is that
bpf_iter_bits_next() uses find_next_bit() to find the next bit and the
pointer passed to find_next_bit() is an unsigned long pointer instead
of a u64 pointer. For 32-bit little-endian host, it is fine but it is
not the case for 32-bit big-endian host. Because under 32-bit big-endian
host, the first iterated unsigned long will be the bits 32-63 of the u64
instead of the expected bits 0-31. Therefore, in addition to changing
the type, swap the two unsigned longs within the u64 for 32-bit
big-endian host.

Check the validity of nr_words in bpf_iter_bits_new(). Without this
check, when multiplication overflow occurs for nr_bits (e.g., when
nr_words = 0x0400-0001, nr_bits becomes 64), stack corruption may occur
due to bpf_probe_read_kernel_common(..., nr_bytes = 0x2000-0008).
Fix it by limiting the maximum value of nr_words to 511. The value is
derived from the current implementation of BPF memory allocator. To
ensure compatibility if the BPF memory allocator's size limitation
changes in the future, use the helper bpf_mem_alloc_check_size() to
check whether nr_bytes is too larger. And return -E2BIG instead of
-ENOMEM for oversized nr_bytes.

That is because nr_bits will be set as zero in bpf_iter_bits_next()
after all bits have been iterated.
Fix the issue by setting kit->bit to kit->nr_bits instead of setting
kit->nr_bits to zero when the iteration completes in
bpf_iter_bits_next(). In addition, use "!nr_bits || bits >= nr_bits" to
check whether the iteration is complete and still use "nr_bits > 64" to
indicate whether bits are dynamically allocated. The "!nr_bits" check is
necessary because bpf_iter_bits_new() may fail before setting
kit->nr_bits, and this condition will stop the iteration early instead
of accessing the zeroed or freed kit->bits.
Considering the initial value of kit->bits is -1 and the type of
kit->nr_bits is unsigned int, change the type of kit->nr_bits to int.
The potential overflow problem will be handled in the following patch.

A specifically crafted program might trick verifier into growing very
long jump history within a single bpf_verifier_state instance.
Very long jump history makes mark_chain_precision() unreasonably slow,
especially in case if verifier processes a loop.
Mitigate this by forcing new state in is_state_visited() in case if
current state's jump history is too long.
Use same constant as in `skip_inf_loop_check`, but multiply it by
arbitrarily chosen value 2 to account for jump history containing not
only information about jumps, but also information about stack access.
For an example of problematic program consider the code below,
w/o this patch the example is processed by verifier for ~15 minutes,
before failing to allocate big-enough chunk for jmp_history.
0: r7 = *(u16 *)(r1 +0);"
1: r7 += 0x1ab064b9;"
2: if r7 & 0x702000 goto 1b;
3: r7 &= 0x1ee60e;"
4: r7 += r1;"
5: if r7 s> 0x37d2 goto +0;"
6: r0 = 0;"
7: exit;"
Perf profiling shows that most of the time is spent in
mark_chain_precision() ~95%.
The easiest way to explain why this program causes problems is to

BPF program is too large. Processed 257 insn
The log output shows that checkpoint at label (1) is never created,
because it is suppressed by `skip_inf_loop_check` logic:
a. When 'if' at (2) is processed it pushes a state with insn_idx (1)
onto stack and proceeds to (3);
b. At (5) checkpoint is created, and this resets
env->{jmps,insns}_processed.
c. Verification proceeds and reaches `exit`;
d. State saved at step (a) is popped from stack and is_state_visited()
considers if checkpoint needs to be added, but because
env->{jmps,insns}_processed had been just reset at step (b)
the `skip_inf_loop_check` logic forces `add_new_state` to false.
e. Verifier proceeds with current state, which slowly accumulates
more and more entries in the jump history.
The accumulation of entries in the jump history is a problem because
of two factors:
- it eventually exhausts memory available for kmalloc() allocation;
- mark_chain_precision() traverses the jump history of a state,
meaning that if `r7` is marked precise, verifier would iterate
ever growing jump history until parent state boundary is reached.
(note: the log also shows a REG INVARIANTS VIOLATION warning
upon jset processing, but that's another bug to fix).
With this patch applied, the example above is rejected by verifier
under 1s of time, reaching 1M instructions limit.
The program is a simplified reproducer from syzbot report.

A new bpf_obj_pin_uptrs() is added to pin the user page and
also stores the kernel address back to the uptr for the
bpf prog to use later. It currently does not support
the uptr pointing to a user struct across two pages.
It also excludes PageHighMem support to keep it simple.
As of now, the 32bit bpf jit is missing other more crucial bpf
features. For example, many important bpf features depend on
bpf kfunc now but so far only one arch (x86-32) supports it
which was added by me as an example when kfunc was first
introduced to bpf.
The uptr can only be stored to the task local storage by the
syscall update_elem. Meaning the uptr will not be considered
if it is provided by the bpf prog through
bpf_task_storage_get(BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE).
This is enforced by only calling
bpf_local_storage_update(swap_uptrs==true) in
bpf_pid_task_storage_update_elem. Everywhere else will
have swap_uptrs==false.
This will pump down to bpf_selem_alloc(swap_uptrs==true). It is
the only case that bpf_selem_alloc() will take the uptr value when
updating the newly allocated selem. bpf_obj_swap_uptrs() is added
to swap the uptr between the SDATA(selem)->data and the user provided
map_value in "void *value". bpf_obj_swap_uptrs() makes the
SDATA(selem)->data takes the ownership of the uptr and the user space
provided map_value will have NULL in the uptr.
The bpf_obj_unpin_uptrs() is called after map->ops->map_update_elem()
returning error. If the map->ops->map_update_elem has reached
a state that the local storage has taken the uptr ownership,
the bpf_obj_unpin_uptrs() will be a no op because the uptr
is NULL. A "__"bpf_obj_unpin_uptrs is added to make this
error path unpin easier such that it does not have to check
the map->record is NULL or not.
BPF_F_LOCK is not supported when the map_value has uptr.
This can be revisited later if there is a use case. A similar
swap_uptrs idea can be considered.
The final bit is to do unpin_user_page in the bpf_obj_free_fields().
The earlier patch has ensured that the bpf_obj_free_fields() has
gone through the rcu gp when needed.

A later patch will enable the uptr usage in the task_local_storage map.
This will require the unpin_user_page() to be done after the rcu
task trace gp for the cases that the uptr may still be used by
a bpf prog. The bpf_obj_free_fields() will be the one doing
unpin_user_page(), so this patch is to postpone calling
bpf_obj_free_fields() to the rcu callback.
The bpf_obj_free_fields() is only required to be done in
the rcu callback when bpf->bpf_ma==true and reuse_now==false.
bpf->bpf_ma==true case is because uptr will only be enabled
in task storage which has already been moved to bpf_mem_alloc.
The bpf->bpf_ma==false case can be supported in the future
also if there is a need.
reuse_now==false when the selem (aka storage) is deleted
by bpf prog (bpf_task_storage_delete) or by syscall delete_elem().
In both cases, bpf_obj_free_fields() needs to wait for
rcu gp.
A few words on reuse_now==true. reuse_now==true when the
storage's owner (i.e. the task_struct) is destructing or the map
itself is doing map_free(). In both cases, no bpf prog should
have a hold on the selem and its uptrs, so there is no need to
postpone bpf_obj_free_fields(). reuse_now==true should be the
common case for local storage usage where the storage exists
throughout the lifetime of its owner (task_struct).
The bpf_obj_free_fields() needs to use the map->record. Doing
bpf_obj_free_fields() in a rcu callback will require the
bpf_local_storage_map_free() to wait for rcu_barrier. An optimization
could be only waiting for rcu_barrier when the map has uptr in
its map_value. This will require either yet another rcu callback
function or adding a bool in the selem to flag if the SDATA(selem)->smap
is still valid. This patch chooses to keep it simple and wait for
rcu_barrier for maps that use bpf_mem_alloc.

In a later patch, bpf_selem_free() will call unpin_user_page()
through bpf_obj_free_fields(). unpin_user_page() may take spin_lock.
However, some bpf_selem_free() call paths have held a raw_spin_lock.
Like this:
raw_spin_lock_irqsave()
bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock()
bpf_selem_free()
unpin_user_page()
spin_lock()
To avoid spinlock nested in raw_spinlock, bpf_selem_free() should be
done after releasing the raw_spinlock. The "bool reuse_now" arg is
replaced with "struct hlist_head *free_selem_list" in
bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock(). The bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock()
will append the to-be-free selem at the free_selem_list. The caller of
bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock() will need to call the new
bpf_selem_free_list(free_selem_list, reuse_now) to free the selem
after releasing the raw_spinlock.
Note that the selem->snode cannot be reused for linking to
the free_selem_list because the selem->snode is protected by the
raw_spinlock that we want to avoid holding. A new
"struct hlist_node free_node;" is union-ized with
the rcu_head. Only the first one successfully
hlist_del_init_rcu(&selem->snode) will be able
to use the free_node. After succeeding hlist_del_init_rcu(&selem->snode),
the free_node and rcu_head usage is serialized such that they
can share the 16 bytes in a union.

In a later patch, the task local storage will only accept uptr
from the syscall update_elem and will not accept uptr from
the bpf prog. The reason is the bpf prog does not have a way
to provide a valid user space address.
bpf_local_storage_update() and bpf_selem_alloc() are used by
both bpf prog bpf_task_storage_get(BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE)
and bpf syscall update_elem. "bool swap_uptrs" arg is added
to bpf_local_storage_update() and bpf_selem_alloc() to tell if
it is called by the bpf prog or by the bpf syscall. When
swap_uptrs==true, it is called by the syscall.
The arg is named (swap_)uptrs because the later patch will swap
the uptrs between the newly allocated selem and the user space
provided map_value. It will make error handling easier in case
map->ops->map_update_elem() fails and the caller can decide
if it needs to unpin the uptr in the user space provided
map_value or the bpf_local_storage_update() has already
taken the uptr ownership and will take care of unpinning it also.
Only swap_uptrs==false is passed now. The logic to handle
the true case will be added in a later patch.

This patch adds BPF_UPTR support to the verifier. Not that only the
map_value will support the "__uptr" type tag.
This patch enforces only BPF_LDX is allowed to the value of an uptr.
After BPF_LDX, it will mark the dst_reg as PTR_TO_MEM | PTR_MAYBE_NULL
with size deduced from the field.kptr.btf_id. This will make the
dst_reg pointed memory to be readable and writable as scalar.
There is a redundant "val_reg = reg_state(env, value_regno);" statement
in the check_map_kptr_access(). This patch takes this chance to remove
it also.

This patch introduces the "__uptr" type tag to BTF. It is to define
a pointer pointing to the user space memory. This patch adds BTF
logic to pass the "__uptr" type tag.
btf_find_kptr() is reused for the "__uptr" tag. The "__uptr" will only
be supported in the map_value of the task storage map. However,
btf_parse_struct_meta() also uses btf_find_kptr() but it is not
interested in "__uptr". This patch adds a "field_mask" argument
to btf_find_kptr() which will return BTF_FIELD_IGNORE if the
caller is not interested in a “__uptr” field.
btf_parse_kptr() is also reused to parse the uptr.
The btf_check_and_fixup_fields() is changed to do extra
checks on the uptr to ensure that its struct size is not larger
than PAGE_SIZE. It is not clear how a uptr pointing to a CO-RE
supported kernel struct will be used, so it is also not allowed now.
