Merge branch 'bpf: allow ctx writes using BPF_ST_MEM instruction'
Eduard Zingerman says: ==================== Changes v1 -> v2, suggested by Alexei: - Resolved conflict with recent commit: 6fcd486b ("bpf: Refactor RCU enforcement in the verifier"); - Variable `ctx_access` removed in function `convert_ctx_accesses()`; - Macro `BPF_COPY_STORE` renamed to `BPF_EMIT_STORE` and fixed to correctly extract original store instruction class from code. Original message follows: The function verifier.c:convert_ctx_access() applies some rewrites to BPF instructions that read from or write to the BPF program context. For example, the write instruction for the `struct bpf_sockopt::retval` field: *(u32 *)(r1 + offsetof(struct bpf_sockopt, retval)) = r2 Is transformed to: *(u64 *)(r1 + offsetof(struct bpf_sockopt_kern, tmp_reg)) = r9 r9 = *(u64 *)(r1 + offsetof(struct bpf_sockopt_kern, current_task)) r9 = *(u64 *)(r9 + offsetof(struct task_struct, bpf_ctx)) *(u32 *)(r9 + offsetof(struct bpf_cg_run_ctx, retval)) = r2 r9 = *(u64 *)(r1 + offsetof(struct bpf_sockopt_kern, tmp_reg)) Currently, the verifier only supports such transformations for LDX (memory-to-register read) and STX (register-to-memory write) instructions. Error is reported for ST instructions (immediate-to-memory write). This is fine because clang does not currently emit ST instructions. However, new `-mcpu=v4` clang flag is planned, which would allow to emit ST instructions (discussed in [1]). This patch-set adjusts the verifier to support ST instructions in `verifier.c:convert_ctx_access()`. The patches #1 and #2 were previously shared as part of RFC [2]. The changes compared to that RFC are: - In patch #1, a bug in the handling of the `struct __sk_buff::queue_mapping` field was fixed. - Patch #3 is added, which is a set of disassembler-based test cases for context access rewrites. The test cases cover all fields for which the handling code is modified in patch #1.
