      bpf: convert relevant helper args to ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK · 074f528e
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      This patch converts all helpers that can use ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK as argument
type. For tc programs this is bpf_skb_load_bytes(), bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key(),
bpf_skb_get_tunnel_opt(). For tracing, this optimizes bpf_get_current_comm()
and bpf_probe_read(). The check in bpf_skb_load_bytes() for MAX_BPF_STACK can
also be removed since the verifier already makes sure we stay within bounds
on stack buffers.

      bpf, verifier: add ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK type · 435faee1
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      When passing buffers from eBPF stack space into a helper function, we have
ARG_PTR_TO_STACK argument type for helpers available. The verifier makes sure
that such buffers are initialized, within boundaries, etc.

However, the downside with this is that we have a couple of helper functions
such as bpf_skb_load_bytes() that fill out the passed buffer in the expected
success case anyway, so zero initializing them prior to the helper call is
unneeded/wasted instructions in the eBPF program that can be avoided.

Therefore, add a new helper function argument type called ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK.
The idea is to skip the STACK_MISC check in check_stack_boundary() and color
the related stack slots as STACK_MISC after we checked all call arguments.

Helper functions using ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK must make sure that every path of
the helper function will fill the provided buffer area, so that we cannot leak
any uninitialized stack memory. This f.e. means that error paths need to
memset() the buffers, but the expected fast-path doesn't have to do this
anymore.

Since there's no such helper needing more than at most one ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK
argument, we can keep it simple and don't need to check for multiple areas.
Should in future such a use-case really appear, we have check_raw_mode() that
will make sure we implement support for it first.

      bpf, verifier: add bpf_call_arg_meta for passing meta data · 33ff9823
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      Currently, when the verifier checks calls in check_call() function, we
call check_func_arg() for all 5 arguments e.g. to make sure expected types
are correct. In some cases, we collect meta data (here: map pointer) to
perform additional checks such as checking stack boundary on key/value
sizes for subsequent arguments. As we're going to extend the meta data,
add a generic struct bpf_call_arg_meta that we can use for passing into
check_func_arg().

      sctp: add support for RPS and RFS · 486bdee0
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored 
      This patch adds what's missing to properly support RPS and RFS on SCTP,
as some of it is already implemented in common calls.

Having support for RPS and RFS allows better scaling specially because
not all NICs support hashing SCTP headers.

Save the hash right when we dequeue a skb from inqueue so we do it only
once per skb instead of per chunk. New sockets will then inherit the
hash through sctp_copy_sock().

      net: validate_xmit_skb() changes · d21fd63e
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      skbs given to validate_xmit_skb() should not have a next
pointer anymore.

Also if a packet is dropped, increment dev->tx_dropped
__dev_queue_xmit() no longer has to change tx_dropped in this case.
