[ Upstream commit 56145d237385ca0e7ca9ff7b226aaf2eb8ef368b ]

The root cause of this bug is that when 'bpf_link_put' reduces the
refcount of 'shim_link-&gt;link.link' to zero, the resource is considered
released but may still be referenced via 'tr-&gt;progs_hlist' in
'cgroup_shim_find'. The actual cleanup of 'tr-&gt;progs_hlist' in
'bpf_shim_tramp_link_release' is deferred. During this window, another
process can cause a use-after-free via 'bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shim'.

Based on Martin KaFai Lau's suggestions, I have created a simple patch.

To fix this:
   Add an atomic non-zero check in 'bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shim'.
   Only increment the refcount if it is not already zero.

Testing:
   I verified the fix by adding a delay in
   'bpf_shim_tramp_link_release' to make the bug easier to trigger:

static void bpf_shim_tramp_link_release(struct bpf_link *link)
{
	/* ... */
	if (!shim_link-&gt;trampoline)
		return;

+	msleep(100);
	WARN_ON_ONCE(bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog(&amp;shim_link-&gt;link,
		shim_link-&gt;trampoline, NULL));
	bpf_trampoline_put(shim_link-&gt;trampoline);
}

Before the patch, running a PoC easily reproduced the crash(almost 100%)
with a call trace similar to KaiyanM's report.
After the patch, the bug no longer occurs even after millions of
iterations.

<title>ftrace: Fix BPF fexit with livepatch</title>

<content type='text'>
When livepatch is attached to the same function as bpf trampoline with
a fexit program, bpf trampoline code calls register_ftrace_direct()
twice. The first time will fail with -EAGAIN, and the second time it
will succeed. This requires register_ftrace_direct() to unregister
the address on the first attempt. Otherwise, the bpf trampoline cannot
attach. Here is an easy way to reproduce this issue:

  insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-sample.ko
  bpftrace -e 'fexit:cmdline_proc_show {}'
  ERROR: Unable to attach probe: fexit:vmlinux:cmdline_proc_show...

Fix this by cleaning up the hash when register_ftrace_function_nolock hits
errors.

Also, move the code that resets ops-&gt;func and ops-&gt;trampoline to the error
path of register_ftrace_direct(); and add a helper function reset_direct()
in register_ftrace_direct() and unregister_ftrace_direct().

Attach_type will be set when a link is created by user. It is better to
record attach_type in bpf_link generically and have it available
universally for all link types. So add the attach_type field in bpf_link
and move the sleepable field to avoid unnecessary gap padding.

The function update_prog_stats() will be called in the bpf trampoline.
In most cases, it will be optimized by the compiler by making it inline.
However, we can't rely on the compiler all the time, and just make it
__always_inline to reduce the possible overhead.

<title>bpf: Add kernel symbol for struct_ops trampoline</title>

<content type='text'>
Without kernel symbols for struct_ops trampoline, the unwinder may
produce unexpected stacktraces.

For example, the x86 ORC and FP unwinders check if an IP is in kernel
text by verifying the presence of the IP's kernel symbol. When a
struct_ops trampoline address is encountered, the unwinder stops due
to the absence of symbol, resulting in an incomplete stacktrace that
consists only of direct and indirect child functions called from the
trampoline.

The arm64 unwinder is another example. While the arm64 unwinder can
proceed across a struct_ops trampoline address, the corresponding
symbol name is displayed as "unknown", which is confusing.

Thus, add kernel symbol for struct_ops trampoline. The name is
bpf__&lt;struct_ops_name&gt;_&lt;member_name&gt;, where &lt;struct_ops_name&gt; is the
type name of the struct_ops, and &lt;member_name&gt; is the name of
the member that the trampoline is linked to.

Below is a comparison of stacktraces captured on x86 by perf record,
before and after this patch.

For struct_ops progs, whether a particular prog uses private stack
depends on prog-&gt;aux-&gt;priv_stack_requested setting before actual
insn-level verification for that prog. One particular implementation
is to piggyback on struct_ops-&gt;check_member(). The next patch has
an example for this. The struct_ops-&gt;check_member() sets
prog-&gt;aux-&gt;priv_stack_requested to be true which enables private stack
usage.

The struct_ops prog follows the same rule as kprobe/tracing progs after
function bpf_enable_priv_stack(). For example, even a struct_ops prog
requests private stack, it could still use normal kernel stack if
the stack size is small (&lt; 64 bytes).

Similar to tracing progs, nested same cpu same prog run will be skipped.
A field (recursion_detected()) is added to bpf_prog_aux structure.
If bpf_prog-&gt;aux-&gt;recursion_detected is implemented by the struct_ops
subsystem and nested same cpu/prog happens, the function will be
triggered to report an error, collect related info, etc.

<title>bpf: Prevent tailcall infinite loop caused by freplace</title>
<updated>2024-10-16T16:21:18+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.exis.tech/linux.git/commit/?id=d6083f040d5d8f8d748462c77e90547097df936e'/>
<id>d6083f040d5d8f8d748462c77e90547097df936e</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a potential infinite loop issue that can occur when using a
combination of tail calls and freplace.

In an upcoming selftest, the attach target for entry_freplace of
tailcall_freplace.c is subprog_tc of tc_bpf2bpf.c, while the tail call in
entry_freplace leads to entry_tc. This results in an infinite loop:

entry_tc -&gt; subprog_tc -&gt; entry_freplace --tailcall-&gt; entry_tc.

The problem arises because the tail_call_cnt in entry_freplace resets to
zero each time entry_freplace is executed, causing the tail call mechanism
to never terminate, eventually leading to a kernel panic.

To fix this issue, the solution is twofold:

1. Prevent updating a program extended by an freplace program to a
   prog_array map.
2. Prevent extending a program that is already part of a prog_array map
   with an freplace program.

This ensures that:

* If a program or its subprogram has been extended by an freplace program,
  it can no longer be updated to a prog_array map.
* If a program has been added to a prog_array map, neither it nor its
  subprograms can be extended by an freplace program.

Moreover, an extension program should not be tailcalled. As such, return
-EINVAL if the program has a type of BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT when adding it to a
prog_array map.

Additionally, fix a minor code style issue by replacing eight spaces with a
tab for proper formatting.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets.

     AF_UNIX is prone to forming reference count cycles due to fd
     passing functionality. New method based on Tarjan's Strongly
     Connected Components algorithm should be both faster and remove a
     lot of workarounds we accumulated over the years.

   - Add TCP fraglist GRO support, allowing chaining multiple TCP
     packets and forwarding them together. Useful for small switches /
     routers which lack basic checksum offload in some scenarios (e.g.
     PPPoE).

   - Support using SMP threads for handling packet backlog i.e. packet
     processing from software interfaces and old drivers which don't use
     NAPI. This helps move the processing out of the softirq jumble.

   - Continue work of converting from rtnl lock to RCU protection.

     Don't require rtnl lock when reading: IPv6 routing FIB, IPv6
     address labels, netdev threaded NAPI sysfs files, bonding driver's
     sysfs files, MPLS devconf, IPv4 FIB rules, netns IDs, tcp metrics,
     TC Qdiscs, neighbor entries, ARP entries via ioctl(SIOCGARP), a lot
     of the link information available via rtnetlink.

   - Small optimizations from Eric to UDP wake up handling, memory
     accounting, RPS/RFS implementation, TCP packet sizing etc.

   - Allow direct page recycling in the bulk API used by XDP, for +2%
     PPS.

   - Support peek with an offset on TCP sockets.

   - Add MPTCP APIs for querying last time packets were received/sent/acked
     and whether MPTCP "upgrade" succeeded on a TCP socket.

   - Add intra-node communication shortcut to improve SMC performance.

   - Add IPv6 (and IPv{4,6}-over-IPv{4,6}) support to the GTP protocol
     driver.

   - Add HSR-SAN (RedBOX) mode of operation to the HSR protocol driver.

   - Add reset reasons for tracing what caused a TCP reset to be sent.

   - Introduce direction attribute for xfrm (IPSec) states. State can be
     used either for input or output packet processing.

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add bitmap_{read,write}(), bitmap_size(), expose BYTES_TO_BITS().

     This required touch-ups and renaming of a few existing users.

   - Add Endian-dependent __counted_by_{le,be} annotations.

   - Make building selftests "quieter" by printing summaries like
     "CC object.o" rather than full commands with all the arguments.

  Netfilter:

   - Use GFP_KERNEL to clone elements, to deal better with OOM
     situations and avoid failures in the .commit step.

  BPF:

   - Add eBPF JIT for ARCv2 CPUs.

   - Support attaching kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in
     a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function
     entry and return, the entry program can decide if the return
     program gets executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie
     value with return program. "Session mode" is a common use-case for
     tetragon and bpftrace.

   - Add the ability to specify and retrieve BPF cookie for raw
     tracepoint programs in order to ease migration from classic to raw
     tracepoints.

   - Add an internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction for resolving per-CPU
     memory addresses and implement support in x86, ARM64 and RISC-V
     JITs. This allows inlining functions which need to access per-CPU
     state.

   - Optimize x86 BPF JIT's emit_mov_imm64, and add support for various
     atomics in bpf_arena which can be JITed as a single x86
     instruction. Support BPF arena on ARM64.

   - Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor
     process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible.

   - Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking.

   - Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto
     APIs.

   - Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13.

   - Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF
     program to have code sections where preemption is disabled.

  Driver API:

   - Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are
     marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by
     rule.

   - Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to
     the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line)
     config.

   - Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single
     queue to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues.

   - Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping.

  Tests and tooling:

   - Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding
     tests so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them.

   - Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint
     to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test
     machine). Add a few such tests.

   - Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the
     YAML Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink
     access.

   - Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance
     tests from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running
     them "on every commit".

   - Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers.

   - Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for:
     nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF
     info, TC u32 mark, TC police action.

   - Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies.

   - Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs
     to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests.

   - Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs.

  Drivers:

   - Make sure unsupported flower control flags are rejected by drivers,
     and make more drivers report errors directly to the application
     rather than dmesg (large number of driver changes from Asbjørn
     Sloth Tønnesen).

   - Ethernet high-speed NICs:
      - Broadcom (bnxt):
         - support multiple RSS contexts and steering traffic to them
         - support XDP metadata
         - make page pool allocations more NUMA aware
      - Intel (100G, ice, idpf):
         - extract datapath code common among Intel drivers into a library
         - use fewer resources in switchdev by sharing queues with the PF
         - add PFCP filter support
         - add Ethernet filter support

         - 800G link modes and 100G SerDes speeds
         - per-queue IRQ coalescing configuration
      - Marvell Octeon:
         - support offloading TC packet mark action

   - Ethernet NICs consumer, embedded and virtual:
      - stop lying about skb-&gt;truesize in USB Ethernet drivers, it
        messes up TCP memory calculations
      - Google cloud vNIC:
         - support changing ring size via ethtool
         - support ring reset using the queue control API
      - VirtIO net:
         - expose flow hash from RSS to XDP
         - per-queue statistics
         - add selftests

         - support controllers which require an RX clock signal from the
           MII bus to perform their hardware initialization

     instruction. Support BPF arena on ARM64.

   - Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor
     process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible.

   - Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking.

   - Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto
     APIs.

   - Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13.

   - Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF
     program to have code sections where preemption is disabled.

  Driver API:

   - Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are
     marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by
     rule.

   - Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to
     the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line)
     config.

   - Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single
     queue to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues.

   - Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping.

  Tests and tooling:

   - Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding
     tests so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them.

   - Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint
     to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test
     machine). Add a few such tests.

   - Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the
     YAML Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink
     access.

   - Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance
     tests from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running
     them "on every commit".

   - Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers.

   - Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for:
     nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF
     info, TC u32 mark, TC police action.

   - Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies.

   - Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs
     to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests.

   - Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs.

  Drivers:

   - Make sure unsupported flower control flags are rejected by drivers,
     and make more drivers report errors directly to the application
     rather than dmesg (large number of driver changes from Asbjørn
     Sloth Tønnesen).
