The calculation of the index used to access the mask field in 'struct
bpf_raw_tp_null_args' is done with 'int' type, which could overflow when
the tracepoint being attached has more than 8 arguments.
While none of the tracepoints mentioned in raw_tp_null_args[] currently
have more than 8 arguments, there do exist tracepoints that had more
than 8 arguments (e.g. iocost_iocg_forgive_debt), so use the correct
type for calculation and avoid Smatch static checker warning.

Add a tracepoint to monitor TCP send operations, enabling detailed
visibility into TCP message transmission.
Create a new tracepoint within the tcp_sendmsg_locked function,
capturing traditional fields along with size_goal, which indicates the
optimal data size for a single TCP segment. Additionally, a reference to
the struct sock sk is passed, allowing direct access for BPF programs.
The implementation is largely based on David's patch[1] and suggestions.

The update of element in fd htab is in-place now, therefore, there is no

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.

Merge tag 'bpf_try_alloc_pages' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
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.

'resilient-queued-spin-lock'")"

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.

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.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"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. Improve its handling in phylib.
- Support symmetric OR-XOR RSS hashing algorithm.
- Support tracking and preserving IRQ affinity by NAPI itself.
- Support loopback mode speed selection for interface selftests.
Device drivers:
- Remove the IBM LCS driver for s390
- Remove the sb1000 cable modem driver
- Add support for SFP module access over SMBus
- Add MCTP transport driver for MCTP-over-USB
- Enable XDP metadata support in multiple drivers
- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Broadcom (bnxt):
- add PCIe TLP Processing Hints (TPH) support for new AMD
platforms

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.

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.

Unlike other waiting loops in rqspinlock code, the one for test-and-set

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.

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
in the includes, which was indirectly pulled in before.

Let's also type alias qspinlock to rqspinlock_t to ensure consistent use
of the new lock type. We want to remove dependence on the qspinlock type
in later patches as we need to provide a test-and-set fallback, hence

In preparation for introducing a new lock implementation, Resilient
Queued Spin Lock, or rqspinlock, we first begin our modifications by
using the existing qspinlock.c code as the base. Simply copy the code to
a new file and rename functions and variables from 'queued' to
'resilient_queued'.
Since we place the file in kernel/bpf, include needs to be relative.
This helps each subsequent commit in clearly showing how and where the
code is being changed. The only change after a literal copy in this
commit is renaming the functions where necessary, and rename qnodes to
rqnodes. Let's also use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for rqspinlock slowpath.

accurate, it is not the only scenario where this restriction applies.
Some architectures do not support this feature combination even when

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
In this patch, all functions annotated with __noreturn are rejected, except
for the following cases:
- Functions that result in a system reboot, such as panic,
machine_real_restart and rust_begin_unwind
- Functions that are never executed by tasks, such as rest_init and
cpu_startup_entry
- Functions implemented in assembly, such as rewind_stack_and_make_dead and
xen_cpu_bringup_again, lack an associated BTF ID.
With this change, attaching fexit probes to functions like do_exit() will
be rejected.

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
userspace and the kernel. LSM modules or eBPF gatekeeper programs may
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
instructions, until the corresponding JIT compiler supports them in
arena.

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

Introducing bpf_dynptr_copy kfunc allowing copying data from one dynptr to
another. This functionality is useful in scenarios such as capturing XDP
data to a ring buffer.
The implementation consists of 4 branches:
* A fast branch for contiguous buffer capacity in both source and
destination dynptrs
* 3 branches utilizing __bpf_dynptr_read and __bpf_dynptr_write to copy
data to/from non-contiguous buffer

Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

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
threaded GRO 2.3 4 Mpps
thr bulk GRO 2.4 4.7 Mpps
diff +4 +17 %
Comparing to the baseline cpumap:

cpumap still uses linked lists to store a list of skbs to pass to the

napi_gro_receive(), linked list is now an unneeded overhead.
Inside the polling loop, we already have an array of skbs. Let's reuse
it for skbs passed to cpumap (generic XDP) and keep there in case of
XDP_PASS when a program is installed to the map itself. Don't list
regular xdp_frames after converting them to skbs as well; store them
in the mentioned array (but *before* generic skbs as the latters have
lower priority) and call gro_receive_skb() for each array element after
they're done.

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.

Vlad Poenaru reported the following kmemleak issue:
unreferenced object 0x606fd7c44ac8 (size 32):
backtrace (crc 0):
pcpu_alloc_noprof+0x730/0xeb0
bpf_map_alloc_percpu+0x69/0xc0

__x64_sys_bpf+0x18/0x20
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.

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().
This change does not affect correctness, but simplifies
get_loop_entry() a bit and also simplifies change 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.

Currently, ctx_arg_info is read-only in the view of the verifier since
it is shared among programs of the same attach type. Make each program
have their own copy of ctx_arg_info so that we can use it to store
program specific information.
In the next patch where we support acquiring a referenced kptr through a
struct_ops argument tagged with "__ref", ctx_arg_info->ref_obj_id will
be used to store the unique reference object id of the argument. This
avoids creating a requirement in the verifier that "__ref" tagged
arguments must be the first set of references acquired [0].

may_goto uses an additional 8 bytes on the stack, which causes the
interpreters[] array to go out of bounds when calculating index by
stack_size.
1. If a BPF program is rewritten, re-evaluate the stack size. For non-JIT
cases, reject loading directly.
2. For non-JIT cases, calculating interpreters[idx] may still cause
out-of-bounds array access, and just warn about it.
3. For jit_requested cases, the execution of bpf_func also needs to be
warned. So move the definition of function __bpf_prog_ret0_warn out of
the macro definition CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON.

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.
Refactor anyways to make things cleaner and prevent potential future
issues.

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.

the code ends up calling apply_to_pte_range() with that unaligned

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.

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.

- Always use bpf_mem_alloc in bpf_local_storage in PREEMPT_RT (Martin
KaFai Lau)
- Refactor verifier lock support (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)

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

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

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.

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),
BPF_EXIT_INSN(),

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.

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.

After switching from kmalloc() to the bpf memory allocator, there will be
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.

*** DEADLOCK ***

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 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
when rejecting the write into the stack.

Inside mark_stack_slot_misc, we should not upgrade STACK_INVALID to
STACK_MISC when allow_ptr_leaks is false, since invalid contents
shouldn't be read unless the program has the relevant capabilities.
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.

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.

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.

* sysctl ctl_table constification
Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of proc_handler
function pointers. All ctl_table struct arguments are const qualified in the
sysctl API in such a way that the ctl_table arrays being defined elsewhere
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.
