      bpf: Adapt copy_map_value for multiple offset case · 4d7d7f69
      Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi authored 
      Since now there might be at most 10 offsets that need handling in
copy_map_value, the manual shuffling and special case is no longer going
to work. Hence, let's generalise the copy_map_value function by using
a sorted array of offsets to skip regions that must be avoided while
copying into and out of a map value.

When the map is created, we populate the offset array in struct map,
Then, copy_map_value uses this sorted offset array is used to memcpy
while skipping timer, spin lock, and kptr. The array is allocated as
in most cases none of these special fields would be present in map
value, hence we can save on space for the common case by not embedding
the entire object inside bpf_map struct.

      bpf: Prevent escaping of kptr loaded from maps · 6efe152d
      Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi authored 
      While we can guarantee that even for unreferenced kptr, the object
pointer points to being freed etc. can be handled by the verifier's
exception handling (normal load patching to PROBE_MEM loads), we still
cannot allow the user to pass these pointers to BPF helpers and kfunc,
because the same exception handling won't be done for accesses inside
the kernel. The same is true if a referenced pointer is loaded using
normal load instruction. Since the reference is not guaranteed to be
held while the pointer is used, it must be marked as untrusted.

Hence introduce a new type flag, PTR_UNTRUSTED, which is used to mark
all registers loading unreferenced and referenced kptr from BPF maps,
and ensure they can never escape the BPF program and into the kernel by
way of calling stable/unstable helpers.

In check_ptr_to_btf_access, the !type_may_be_null check to reject type
flags is still correct, as apart from PTR_MAYBE_NULL, only MEM_USER,
MEM_PERCPU, and PTR_UNTRUSTED may be set for PTR_TO_BTF_ID. The first
two are checked inside the function and rejected using a proper error
message, but we still want to allow dereference of untrusted case.

Also, we make sure to inherit PTR_UNTRUSTED when chain of pointers are
walked, so that this flag is never dropped once it has been set on a
PTR_TO_BTF_ID (i.e. trusted to untrusted transition can only be in one
direction).

In convert_ctx_accesses, extend the switch case to consider untrusted
PTR_TO_BTF_ID in addition to normal PTR_TO_BTF_ID for PROBE_MEM
conversion for BPF_LDX.

      bpf: Allow storing referenced kptr in map · c0a5a21c
      Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi authored 
      Extending the code in previous commits, introduce referenced kptr
support, which needs to be tagged using 'kptr_ref' tag instead. Unlike
unreferenced kptr, referenced kptr have a lot more restrictions. In
addition to the type matching, only a newly introduced bpf_kptr_xchg
helper is allowed to modify the map value at that offset. This transfers
the referenced pointer being stored into the map, releasing the
references state for the program, and returning the old value and
creating new reference state for the returned pointer.

Similar to unreferenced pointer case, return value for this case will
also be PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL. The reference for the returned pointer
must either be eventually released by calling the corresponding release
function, otherwise it must be transferred into another map.

It is also allowed to call bpf_kptr_xchg with a NULL pointer, to clear
the value, and obtain the old value if any.

BPF_LDX, BPF_STX, and BPF_ST cannot access referenced kptr. A future
commit will permit using BPF_LDX for such pointers, but attempt at
making it safe, since the lifetime of object won't be guaranteed.

There are valid reasons to enforce the restriction of permitting only
bpf_kptr_xchg to operate on referenced kptr. The pointer value must be
consistent in face of concurrent modification, and any prior values
contained in the map must also be released before a new one is moved
into the map. To ensure proper transfer of this ownership, bpf_kptr_xchg
returns the old value, which the verifier would require the user to
either free or move into another map, and releases the reference held
for the pointer being moved in.

In the future, direct BPF_XCHG instruction may also be permitted to work
like bpf_kptr_xchg helper.

Note that process_kptr_func doesn't have to call
check_helper_mem_access, since we already disallow rdonly/wronly flags
for map, which is what check_map_access_type checks, and we already
ensure the PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE refers to kptr by obtaining its off_desc,
so check_map_access is also not required.

      bpf: Tag argument to be released in bpf_func_proto · 8f14852e
      Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi authored 
      Add a new type flag for bpf_arg_type that when set tells verifier that
for a release function, that argument's register will be the one for
which meta.ref_obj_id will be set, and which will then be released
using release_reference. To capture the regno, introduce a new field
release_regno in bpf_call_arg_meta.

This would be required in the next patch, where we may either pass NULL
or a refcounted pointer as an argument to the release function
bpf_kptr_xchg. Just releasing only when meta.ref_obj_id is set is not
enough, as there is a case where the type of argument needed matches,
but the ref_obj_id is set to 0. Hence, we must enforce that whenever
meta.ref_obj_id is zero, the register that is to be released can only
be NULL for a release function.

Since we now indicate whether an argument is to be released in
bpf_func_proto itself, is_release_function helper has lost its utitlity,
hence refactor code to work without it, and just rely on
meta.release_regno to know when to release state for a ref_obj_id.
Still, the restriction of one release argument and only one ref_obj_id
passed to BPF helper or kfunc remains. This may be lifted in the future.

      bpf: Allow storing unreferenced kptr in map · 61df10c7
      Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi authored 
      This commit introduces a new pointer type 'kptr' which can be embedded
in a map value to hold a PTR_TO_BTF_ID stored by a BPF program during
its invocation. When storing such a kptr, BPF program's PTR_TO_BTF_ID
register must have the same type as in the map value's BTF, and loading
a kptr marks the destination register as PTR_TO_BTF_ID with the correct
kernel BTF and BTF ID.

Such kptr are unreferenced, i.e. by the time another invocation of the
BPF program loads this pointer, the object which the pointer points to
may not longer exist. Since PTR_TO_BTF_ID loads (using BPF_LDX) are
patched to PROBE_MEM loads by the verifier, it would safe to allow user
to still access such invalid pointer, but passing such pointers into
BPF helpers and kfuncs should not be permitted. A future patch in this
series will close this gap.

The flexibility offered by allowing programs to dereference such invalid
pointers while being safe at runtime frees the verifier from doing
complex lifetime tracking. As long as the user may ensure that the
object remains valid, it can ensure data read by it from the kernel
object is valid.

The user indicates that a certain pointer must be treated as kptr
capable of accepting stores of PTR_TO_BTF_ID of a certain type, by using
a BTF type tag 'kptr' on the pointed to type of the pointer. Then, this
information is recorded in the object BTF which will be passed into the
kernel by way of map's BTF information. The name and kind from the map
value BTF is used to look up the in-kernel type, and the actual BTF and
BTF ID is recorded in the map struct in a new kptr_off_tab member. For
now, only storing pointers to structs is permitted.

An example of this specification is shown below:

	#define __kptr __attribute__((btf_type_tag("kptr")))

	struct map_value {
		...
		struct task_struct __kptr *task;
		...
	};

Then, in a BPF program, user may store PTR_TO_BTF_ID with the type
task_struct into the map, and then load it later.

Note that the destination register is marked PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL, as
the verifier cannot know whether the value is NULL or not statically, it
must treat all potential loads at that map value offset as loading a
possibly NULL pointer.

Only BPF_LDX, BPF_STX, and BPF_ST (with insn->imm = 0 to denote NULL)
are allowed instructions that can access such a pointer. On BPF_LDX, the
destination register is updated to be a PTR_TO_BTF_ID, and on BPF_STX,
it is checked whether the source register type is a PTR_TO_BTF_ID with
same BTF type as specified in the map BTF. The access size must always
be BPF_DW.

For the map in map support, the kptr_off_tab for outer map is copied
from the inner map's kptr_off_tab. It was chosen to do a deep copy
instead of introducing a refcount to kptr_off_tab, because the copy only
needs to be done when paramterizing using inner_map_fd in the map in map
case, hence would be unnecessary for all other users.

It is not permitted to use MAP_FREEZE command and mmap for BPF map
having kptrs, similar to the bpf_timer case. A kptr also requires that
BPF program has both read and write access to the map (hence both
BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG and BPF_F_WRONLY_PROG are disallowed).

Note that check_map_access must be called from both
check_helper_mem_access and for the BPF instructions, hence the kptr
check must distinguish between ACCESS_DIRECT and ACCESS_HELPER, and
reject ACCESS_HELPER cases. We rename stack_access_src to bpf_access_src
and reuse it for this purpose.

      bpf: Use bpf_prog_run_array_cg_flags everywhere · d9d31cf8
      Stanislav Fomichev authored 
      Rename bpf_prog_run_array_cg_flags to bpf_prog_run_array_cg and
use it everywhere. check_return_code already enforces sane
return ranges for all cgroup types. (only egress and bind hooks have
uncanonical return ranges, the rest is using [0, 1])

No functional changes.

v2:
- 'func_ret & 1' under explicit test (Andrii & Martin)
