[ Upstream commit 2d7afdcbc9d32423f177ee12b7c93783aea338fb ]

Extending the tail can have some unexpected side effects if a program uses
a helper like BPF_FUNC_skb_pull_data to read partial content beyond the
head skb headlen when all the skbs in the gso frag_list are linear with no
head_frag -

Fix this by marking these skbs as GSO_DODGY so segmentation can handle

<title>net: gso: fix panic on frag_list with mixed head alloc types</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 3dcbdb134f32 ("net: gso: Fix skb_segment splat when
splitting gso_size mangled skb having linear-headed frag_list"), it is
allowed to change gso_size of a GRO packet. However, that commit assumes
that "checking the first list_skb member suffices; i.e if either of the
list_skb members have non head_frag head, then the first one has too".

It turns out this assumption does not hold. We've seen BUG_ON being hit
in skb_segment when skbs on the frag_list had differing head_frag with
the vmxnet3 driver. This happens because __netdev_alloc_skb and
__napi_alloc_skb can return a skb that is page backed or kmalloced
depending on the requested size. As the result, the last small skb in
the GRO packet can be kmalloced.

There are three different locations where this can be fixed:

(1) We could check head_frag in GRO and not allow GROing skbs with
    different head_frag. However, that would lead to performance
    regression on normal forward paths with unmodified gso_size, where
    !head_frag in the last packet is not a problem.

(2) Set a flag in bpf_skb_net_grow and bpf_skb_net_shrink indicating
    that NETIF_F_SG is undesirable. That would need to eat a bit in
    sk_buff. Furthermore, that flag can be unset when all skbs on the
    frag_list are page backed. To retain good performance,
    bpf_skb_net_grow/shrink would have to walk the frag_list.

(3) Walk the frag_list in skb_segment when determining whether
    NETIF_F_SG should be cleared. This of course slows things down.

This patch implements (3). To limit the performance impact in
skb_segment, the list is walked only for skbs with SKB_GSO_DODGY set
that have gso_size changed. Normal paths thus will not hit it.

We could check only the last skb but since we need to walk the whole
list anyway, let's stay on the safe side.

skb_append_pagefrags() is used by af_unix and udp sendpage()
implementation so far.

In commit 326140063946 ("tcp: TX zerocopy should not sense
pfmemalloc status") we explained why we should not sense
pfmemalloc status for pages owned by user space.

We should also use skb_fill_page_desc_noacc()
in skb_append_pagefrags() to avoid following KCSAN report:

<title>net: skb: introduce and use a single page frag cache</title>

<content type='text'>
After commit 3226b158e67c ("net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation
for tiny skbs") we are observing 10-20% regressions in performance
tests with small packets. The perf trace points to high pressure on
the slab allocator.

This change tries to improve the allocation schema for small packets
using an idea originally suggested by Eric: a new per CPU page frag is
introduced and used in __napi_alloc_skb to cope with small allocation
requests.

To ensure that the above does not lead to excessive truesize
underestimation, the frag size for small allocation is inflated to 1K
and all the above is restricted to build with 4K page size.

Note that we need to update accordingly the run-time check introduced
with commit fd9ea57f4e95 ("net: add napi_get_frags_check() helper").

Alex suggested a smart page refcount schema to reduce the number
of atomic operations and deal properly with pfmemalloc pages.

Under small packet UDP flood, I measure a 15% peak tput increases.

After commit 3226b158e67c ("net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation
for tiny skbs") we are observing 10-20% regressions in performance
tests with small packets. The perf trace points to high pressure on
the slab allocator.

This change tries to improve the allocation schema for small packets
using an idea originally suggested by Eric: a new per CPU page frag is
introduced and used in __napi_alloc_skb to cope with small allocation
requests.

To ensure that the above does not lead to excessive truesize
underestimation, the frag size for small allocation is inflated to 1K
and all the above is restricted to build with 4K page size.

Note that we need to update accordingly the run-time check introduced
with commit fd9ea57f4e95 ("net: add napi_get_frags_check() helper").

Alex suggested a smart page refcount schema to reduce the number
of atomic operations and deal properly with pfmemalloc pages.

Under small packet UDP flood, I measure a 15% peak tput increases.

<title>net: shrink struct ubuf_info</title>

We can benefit from a smaller struct ubuf_info, so leave only mandatory
fields and let users to decide how they want to extend it. Convert
MSG_ZEROCOPY to struct ubuf_info_msgzc and remove duplicated fields.
This reduces the size from 48 bytes to just 16.

<title>net: skb: export skb drop reaons to user by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM</title>

As Eric reported, the 'reason' field is not presented when trace the
kfree_skb event by perf:

$ perf record -e skb:kfree_skb -a sleep 10
$ perf script
  ip_defrag 14605 [021]   221.614303:   skb:kfree_skb:
  skbaddr=0xffff9d2851242700 protocol=34525 location=0xffffffffa39346b1
  reason:

The cause seems to be passing kernel address directly to TP_printk(),
which is not right. As the enum 'skb_drop_reason' is not exported to
user space through TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), perf can't get the drop reason
string from the 'reason' field, which is a number.

Therefore, we introduce the macro DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), which is used
to define the trace enum by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(). With the help of
DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), now we can remove the auto-generate that we
introduced in the commit ec43908dd556
("net: skb: use auto-generation to convert skb drop reason to string"),
and define the string array 'drop_reasons'.

Hmmmm...now we come back to the situation that have to maintain drop
reasons in both enum skb_drop_reason and DEFINE_DROP_REASON. But they
are both in dropreason.h, which makes it easier.

After this commit, now the format of kfree_skb is like this:

$ cat /tracing/events/skb/kfree_skb/format
name: kfree_skb
ID: 1524
format:
        field:unsigned short common_type;       offset:0;       size:2; signed:0;
        field:unsigned char common_flags;       offset:2;       size:1; signed:0;
        field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;       offset:3;       size:1; signed:0;
        field:int common_pid;   offset:4;       size:4; signed:1;

        field:void * skbaddr;   offset:8;       size:8; signed:0;
        field:void * location;  offset:16;      size:8; signed:0;
        field:unsigned short protocol;  offset:24;      size:2; signed:0;
        field:enum skb_drop_reason reason;      offset:28;      size:4; signed:0;

print fmt: "skbaddr=%p protocol=%u location=%p reason: %s", REC-&gt;skbaddr, REC-&gt;protocol, REC-&gt;location, __print_symbolic(REC-&gt;reason, { 1, "NOT_SPECIFIED" }, { 2, "NO_SOCKET" } ......
