[ Upstream commit 189e5deb944a6f9c7992355d60bffd8ec2e54a9c ]

Analogically to the x86 commit 881a9c9cb785 ("bpf: Do not audit
capability check in do_jit()"), change the capable() call to
ns_capable_noaudit() in order to avoid spurious SELinux denials in audit
log.

The commit log from that commit applies here as well:
"""
The failure of this check only results in a security mitigation being
applied, slightly affecting performance of the compiled BPF program. It
doesn't result in a failed syscall, an thus auditing a failed LSM
permission check for it is unwanted. For example with SELinux, it causes
a denial to be reported for confined processes running as root, which
tends to be flagged as a problem to be fixed in the policy. Yet
dontauditing or allowing CAP_SYS_ADMIN to the domain may not be
desirable, as it would allow/silence also other checks - either going
against the principle of least privilege or making debugging potentially
harder.

Fix it by changing it from capable() to ns_capable_noaudit(), which
instructs the LSMs to not audit the resulting denials.

[ Upstream commit f300769ead032513a68e4a02e806393402e626f8 ]

Support for eBPF programs loaded by unprivileged users is typically
disabled. This means only cBPF programs need to be mitigated for BHB.

In addition, only mitigate cBPF programs that were loaded by an
unprivileged user. Privileged users can also load the same program
via eBPF, making the mitigation pointless.

A malicious BPF program may manipulate the branch history to influence
what the hardware speculates will happen next.

On exit from a BPF program, emit the BHB mititgation sequence.

This is only applied for 'classic' cBPF programs that are loaded by
seccomp.

<title>arm64: insn: add encoders for atomic operations</title>

[ Upstream commit fa1114d9eba5087ba5e81aab4c56f546995e6cd3 ]

It is a preparation patch for eBPF atomic supports under arm64. eBPF
needs support atomic[64]_fetch_add, atomic[64]_[fetch_]{and,or,xor} and
atomic[64]_{xchg|cmpxchg}. The ordering semantics of eBPF atomics are
the same with the implementations in linux kernel.

Add three helpers to support LDCLR/LDEOR/LDSET/SWP, CAS and DMB
instructions. STADD/STCLR/STEOR/STSET are simply encoded as aliases for
LDADD/LDCLR/LDEOR/LDSET with XZR as the destination register, so no extra
helper is added. atomic_fetch_add() and other atomic ops needs support for
STLXR instruction, so extend enum aarch64_insn_ldst_type to do that.

LDADD/LDEOR/LDSET/SWP and CAS instructions are only available when LSE
atomics is enabled, so just return AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT directly in
these newly-added helpers if CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS is disabled.

[ Upstream commit 10f3b29c65bb2fe0d47c2945cd0b4087be1c5218 ]

syzbot reported an illegal copy_to_user() attempt
from bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() [1]

There was no repro yet on this bug, but I think
that commit 0aef499f3172 ("mm/usercopy: Detect vmalloc overruns")
is exposing a prior bug in bpf arm64.

bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() looks at prog-&gt;jited_len
to determine if the JIT image can be copied out to user space.

My theory is that syzbot managed to get a prog where prog-&gt;jited_len
has been set to 43, while prog-&gt;bpf_func has ben cleared.

It is not clear why copy_to_user(uinsns, NULL, ulen) is triggering
this particular warning.

I thought find_vma_area(NULL) would not find a vm_struct.
As we do not hold vmap_area_lock spinlock, it might be possible
that the found vm_struct was garbage.

[ Upstream commit dda7596c109fc382876118627e29db7607cde35d ]

insn_to_jit_off passed to bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo() is calculated in
instruction granularity instead of bytes granularity, but BPF line info
requires byte offset.

bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo() will be the last user of ctx.offset before
it is freed, so convert the offset into byte-offset before calling into
bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo() in order to fix the line info dump on arm64.

<title>bpf: Introduce BPF nospec instruction for mitigating Spectre v4</title>

[ Upstream commit f5e81d1117501546b7be050c5fbafa6efd2c722c ]

In case of JITs, each of the JIT backends compiles the BPF nospec instruction
/either/ to a machine instruction which emits a speculation barrier /or/ to
/no/ machine instruction in case the underlying architecture is not affected
by Speculative Store Bypass or has different mitigations in place already.

This covers both x86 and (implicitly) arm64: In case of x86, we use 'lfence'
instruction for mitigation. In case of arm64, we rely on the firmware mitigation
as controlled via the ssbd kernel parameter. Whenever the mitigation is enabled,
it works for all of the kernel code with no need to provide any additional
instructions here (hence only comment in arm64 JIT). Other archs can follow
as needed. The BPF nospec instruction is specifically targeting Spectre v4
since i) we don't use a serialization barrier for the Spectre v1 case, and
ii) mitigation instructions for v1 and v4 might be different on some archs.

The BPF nospec is required for a future commit, where the BPF verifier does
annotate intermediate BPF programs with speculation barriers.

[ 6525.957249] ---[ end trace cecc3f93b14927e2 ]---

The reason is the offset[] creation and later usage, while building
the eBPF body. The code currently omits the first instruction, since
build_insn() will increase our ctx-&gt;idx before saving it.
That was fine up until bounded eBPF loops were introduced. After that
introduction, offset[0] must be the offset of the end of prologue which
is the start of the 1st insn while, offset[n] holds the
offset of the end of n-th insn.

When "taken loop with back jump to 1st insn" test runs, it will
eventually call bpf2a64_offset(-1, 2, ctx). Since negative indexing is
permitted, the current outcome depends on the value stored in
ctx-&gt;offset[-1], which has nothing to do with our array.
If the value happens to be 0 the tests will work. If not this error
triggers.

commit 7c2e988f400e ("bpf: fix x64 JIT code generation for jmp to 1st insn")
fixed an indentical bug on x86 when eBPF bounded loops were introduced.

So let's fix it by creating the ctx-&gt;offset[] differently. Track the
beginning of instruction and account for the extra instruction while
calculating the arm instruction offsets.

The reason is the offset[] creation and later usage, while building
the eBPF body. The code currently omits the first instruction, since
build_insn() will increase our ctx-&gt;idx before saving it.
That was fine up until bounded eBPF loops were introduced. After that
introduction, offset[0] must be the offset of the end of prologue which
is the start of the 1st insn while, offset[n] holds the
offset of the end of n-th insn.

When "taken loop with back jump to 1st insn" test runs, it will
eventually call bpf2a64_offset(-1, 2, ctx). Since negative indexing is
permitted, the current outcome depends on the value stored in
ctx-&gt;offset[-1], which has nothing to do with our array.
If the value happens to be 0 the tests will work. If not this error
triggers.

commit 7c2e988f400e ("bpf: fix x64 JIT code generation for jmp to 1st insn")
fixed an indentical bug on x86 when eBPF bounded loops were introduced.

So let's fix it by creating the ctx-&gt;offset[] differently. Track the
beginning of instruction and account for the extra instruction while
calculating the arm instruction offsets.
