[ Upstream commit 6af6e49a76c9af7d42eb923703e7648cb2bf401a ]

As [lru_,]percpu_hash maps support BPF_KPTR_{REF,PERCPU}, missing
calls to 'bpf_obj_free_fields()' in 'pcpu_copy_value()' could cause the
memory referenced by BPF_KPTR_{REF,PERCPU} fields to be held until the
map gets freed.

Fix this by calling 'bpf_obj_free_fields()' after
'copy_map_value[,_long]()' in 'pcpu_copy_value()'.

[ Upstream commit b9e9ed90b10c82a4e9d4d70a2890f06bfcdd3b78 ]

For htab of maps, when the map is removed from the htab, it may hold the
last reference of the map. bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() will invoke
bpf_map_free_id() to free the id of the removed map element. However,
bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() is invoked while holding a bucket lock
(raw_spin_lock_t), and bpf_map_free_id() attempts to acquire map_idr_lock
(spinlock_t), triggering the following lockdep warning:

  =============================

One way to fix the lockdep warning is using raw_spinlock_t for
map_idr_lock as well. However, bpf_map_alloc_id() invokes
idr_alloc_cyclic() after acquiring map_idr_lock, it will trigger a
similar lockdep warning because the slab's lock (s-&gt;cpu_slab-&gt;lock) is
still a spinlock.

Instead of changing map_idr_lock's type, fix the issue by invoking
htab_put_fd_value() after htab_unlock_bucket(). However, only deferring
the invocation of htab_put_fd_value() is not enough, because the old map
pointers in htab of maps can not be saved during batched deletion.
Therefore, also defer the invocation of free_htab_elem(), so these
to-be-freed elements could be linked together similar to lru map.

There are four callers for -&gt;map_fd_put_ptr:

(1) alloc_htab_elem() (through htab_put_fd_value())
It invokes -&gt;map_fd_put_ptr() under a raw_spinlock_t. The invocation of
htab_put_fd_value() can not simply move after htab_unlock_bucket(),
because the old element has already been stashed in htab-&gt;extra_elems.
It may be reused immediately after htab_unlock_bucket() and the
invocation of htab_put_fd_value() after htab_unlock_bucket() may release
the newly-added element incorrectly. Therefore, saving the map pointer
of the old element for htab of maps before unlocking the bucket and
releasing the map_ptr after unlock. Beside the map pointer in the old
element, should do the same thing for the special fields in the old
element as well.

(2) free_htab_elem() (through htab_put_fd_value())
Its caller includes __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem(),
htab_map_delete_elem() and __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch().

For htab_map_delete_elem(), simply invoke free_htab_elem() after
htab_unlock_bucket(). For __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch(), just
like lru map, linking the to-be-freed element into node_to_free list
and invoking free_htab_elem() for these element after unlock. It is safe
to reuse batch_flink as the link for node_to_free, because these
elements have been removed from the hash llist.

Because htab of maps doesn't support lookup_and_delete operation,
__htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem() doesn't have the problem, so kept
it as is.

(3) fd_htab_map_free()
It invokes -&gt;map_fd_put_ptr without raw_spinlock_t.

(4) bpf_fd_htab_map_update_elem()
It invokes -&gt;map_fd_put_ptr without raw_spinlock_t.

After moving free_htab_elem() outside htab bucket lock scope, using
pcpu_freelist_push() instead of __pcpu_freelist_push() to disable
the irq before freeing elements, and protecting the invocations of
bpf_mem_cache_free() with migrate_{disable|enable} pair.

Percpu map is often used, but the map value size limit often ignored,
like issue: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/2519. Actually,
percpu map value size is bound by PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE, so we
can check the value size whether it exceeds PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE first,
like percpu map of local_storage. Maybe the error message seems clearer
compared with "cannot allocate memory".

[ Upstream commit 6787d916c2cf9850c97a0a3f73e08c43e7d973b1 ]

The hashtab code relies on roundup_pow_of_two() to compute the number of
hash buckets, and contains an overflow check by checking if the
resulting value is 0. However, on 32-bit arches, the roundup code itself
can overflow by doing a 32-bit left-shift of an unsigned long value,
which is undefined behaviour, so it is not guaranteed to truncate
neatly. This was triggered by syzbot on the DEVMAP_HASH type, which
contains the same check, copied from the hashtab code. So apply the same
fix to hashtab, by moving the overflow check to before the roundup.

[ Upstream commit 20c20bd11a0702ce4dc9300c3da58acf551d9725 ]

map is the pointer of outer map, and need_defer needs some explanation.
need_defer tells the implementation to defer the reference release of
the passed element and ensure that the element is still alive before
the bpf program, which may manipulate it, exits.

The following three cases will invoke map_fd_put_ptr() and different
need_defer values will be passed to these callers:

1) release the reference of the old element in the map during map update
   or map deletion. The release must be deferred, otherwise the bpf
   program may incur use-after-free problem, so need_defer needs to be
   true.
2) release the reference of the to-be-added element in the error path of
   map update. The to-be-added element is not visible to any bpf
   program, so it is OK to pass false for need_defer parameter.
3) release the references of all elements in the map during map release.
   Any bpf program which has access to the map must have been exited and
   released, so need_defer=false will be OK.

These two parameters will be used by the following patches to fix the
potential use-after-free problem for map-in-map.

[ Upstream commit d35381aa73f7e1e8b25f3ed5283287a64d9ddff5 ]

htab_lock_bucket uses the following logic to avoid recursion:

1. preempt_disable();
2. check percpu counter htab-&gt;map_locked[hash] for recursion;
   2.1. if map_lock[hash] is already taken, return -BUSY;
3. raw_spin_lock_irqsave();

However, if an IRQ hits between 2 and 3, BPF programs attached to the IRQ
logic will not able to access the same hash of the hashtab and get -EBUSY.

This -EBUSY is not really necessary. Fix it by disabling IRQ before
checking map_locked:

1. preempt_disable();
2. local_irq_save();
3. check percpu counter htab-&gt;map_locked[hash] for recursion;
   3.1. if map_lock[hash] is already taken, return -BUSY;
4. raw_spin_lock().

Similarly, use raw_spin_unlock() and local_irq_restore() in
htab_unlock_bucket().

<title>bpf: populate the per-cpu insertions/deletions counters for hashmaps</title>

Initialize and utilize the per-cpu insertions/deletions counters for hash-based
maps. Non-trivial changes only apply to the preallocated maps for which the
{inc,dec}_elem_count functions are not called, as there's no need in counting
elements to sustain proper map operations.

To increase/decrease percpu counters for preallocated maps we add raw calls to
the bpf_map_{inc,dec}_elem_count functions so that the impact is minimal. For
dynamically allocated maps we add corresponding calls to the existing
{inc,dec}_elem_count functions.

This allows to do more centralized decisions later on, and generally
makes it very explicit which maps are privileged and which are not
(e.g., LRU_HASH and LRU_PERCPU_HASH, which are privileged HASH variants,
as opposed to unprivileged HASH and HASH_PERCPU; now this is explicit
and easy to verify).

<title>bpf: fix a memory leak in the LRU and LRU_PERCPU hash maps</title>

The LRU and LRU_PERCPU maps allocate a new element on update before locking the
target hash table bucket. Right after that the maps try to lock the bucket.
If this fails, then maps return -EBUSY to the caller without releasing the
allocated element. This makes the element untracked: it doesn't belong to
either of free lists, and it doesn't belong to the hash table, so can't be
re-used; this eventually leads to the permanent -ENOMEM on LRU map updates,
which is unexpected. Fix this by returning the element to the local free list
if bucket locking fails.
