      selftests/bpf: trace_helpers.c: do not use poisoned type · a68b50f4
      Shung-Hsi Yu authored
      After commit c698eaeb ("selftests/bpf: trace_helpers.c: Optimize
      kallsyms cache") trace_helpers.c now includes libbpf_internal.h, and
      thus can no longer use the u32 type (among others) since they are poison
      in libbpf_internal.h. Replace u32 with __u32 to fix the following error
      when building trace_helpers.c on powerpc:
      
        error: attempt to use poisoned "u32"
      
      Fixes: c698eaeb ("selftests/bpf: trace_helpers.c: Optimize kallsyms cache")

      ====================
      Improvements for tracking scalars in the BPF verifier
      
      From: Maxim Mikityanskiy <maxim@isovalent.com>
      
      The goal of this series is to extend the verifier's capabilities of
      tracking scalars when they are spilled to stack, especially when the
      spill or fill is narrowing. It also contains a fix by Eduard for
      infinite loop detection and a state pruning optimization by Eduard that
      compensates for a verification complexity regression introduced by
      tracking unbounded scalars. These improvements reduce the surface of
      false rejections that I saw while working on Cilium codebase.
      
      Patches 1-9 of the original series were previously applied in v2.
      
      Patches 1-2 (Maxim): Support the case when boundary checks are first
      performed after the register was spilled to the stack.
      
      Patches 3-4 (Maxim): Support narrowing fills.
      
      Patches 5-6 (Eduard): Optimization for state pruning in stacksafe() to
      mitigate the verification complexity regression.

      v2 changes:
      
      Fixed comments in patch 1, moved endianness checks to header files in
      patch 12 where possible, added Eduard's ACKs.
      
      v3 changes:
      
      Maxim: Removed __is_scalar_unbounded altogether, addressed Andrii's
      comments.
      
      Eduard: Patch #5 (#14 in v2) changed significantly:
      - Logical changes:
        - Handling of STACK_{MISC,ZERO} mix turned out to be incorrect:
          a mix of MISC and ZERO in old state is not equivalent to e.g.
          just MISC is current state, because verifier could have deduced
          zero scalars from ZERO slots in old state for some loads.
        - There is no reason to limit the change only to cases when
          old or current stack is a spill of unbounded scalar,
          it is valid to compare any 64-bit scalar spill with fake
          register impersonating MISC.
        - STACK_ZERO vs spilled zero case was dropped,
          after recent changes for zero handling by Andrii and Yonghong
          it is hard (impossible?) to conjure all ZERO slots for an spi.
          => the case does not make any difference in veristat results.
      - Use global static variable for unbound_reg (Andrii)
      - Code shuffling to remove duplication in stacksafe() (Andrii)

      selftests/bpf: States pruning checks for scalar vs STACK_MISC · 73a28d9d
      Eduard Zingerman authored
      Check that stacksafe() compares spilled scalars with STACK_MISC.
      The following combinations are explored:
      - old spill of imprecise scalar is equivalent to cur STACK_{MISC,INVALID}
        (plus error in unpriv mode);
      - old spill of precise scalar is not equivalent to cur STACK_MISC;
      - old STACK_MISC is equivalent to cur scalar;
      - old STACK_MISC is not equivalent to cur non-scalar.

      bpf: Handle scalar spill vs all MISC in stacksafe() · 6efbde20
      Eduard Zingerman authored
      When check_stack_read_fixed_off() reads value from an spi
      all stack slots of which are set to STACK_{MISC,INVALID},
      the destination register is set to unbound SCALAR_VALUE.
      
      Exploit this fact by allowing stacksafe() to use a fake
      unbound scalar register to compare 'mmmm mmmm' stack value
      in old state vs spilled 64-bit scalar in current state
      and vice versa.

      bpf: Preserve boundaries and track scalars on narrowing fill · c1e6148c
      Maxim Mikityanskiy authored
      When the width of a fill is smaller than the width of the preceding
      spill, the information about scalar boundaries can still be preserved,
      as long as it's coerced to the right width (done by coerce_reg_to_size).
      Even further, if the actual value fits into the fill width, the ID can
      be preserved as well for further tracking of equal scalars.
      
      Implement the above improvements, which makes narrowing fills behave the
      same as narrowing spills and MOVs between registers.
      
      Two tests are adjusted to accommodate for endianness differences and to
      take into account that it's now allowed to do a narrowing fill from the
      least significant bits.
      
      reg_bounds_sync is added to coerce_reg_to_size to correctly adjust
      umin/umax boundaries after the var_off truncation, for example, a 64-bit
      value 0xXXXXXXXX00000000, when read as a 32-bit, gets umin = 0, umax =
      0xFFFFFFFF, var_off = (0x0; 0xffffffff00000000), which needs to be
      synced down to umax = 0, otherwise reg_bounds_sanity_check doesn't pass.

      bpf: Track spilled unbounded scalars · e67ddd9b
      Maxim Mikityanskiy authored
      Support the pattern where an unbounded scalar is spilled to the stack,
      then boundary checks are performed on the src register, after which the
      stack frame slot is refilled into a register.
      
      Before this commit, the verifier didn't treat the src register and the
      stack slot as related if the src register was an unbounded scalar. The
      register state wasn't copied, the id wasn't preserved, and the stack
      slot was marked as STACK_MISC. Subsequent boundary checks on the src
      register wouldn't result in updating the boundaries of the spilled
      variable on the stack.
      
      After this commit, the verifier will preserve the bond between src and
      dst even if src is unbounded, which permits to do boundary checks on src
      and refill dst later, still remembering its boundaries. Such a pattern
      is sometimes generated by clang when compiling complex long functions.
      
      One test is adjusted to reflect that now unbounded scalars are tracked.
