Not all uses of __diag_ignore_all(...) in BPF-related code in order to
suppress warnings are wrapping kfunc definitions. Some "hook point"
definitions - small functions meant to be used as attach points for
fentry and similar BPF progs - need to suppress -Wmissing-declarations.
We could use __bpf_kfunc_{start,end}_defs added in the previous patch in
such cases, but this might be confusing to someone unfamiliar with BPF
internals. Instead, this patch adds __bpf_hook_{start,end} macros,
currently having the same effect as __bpf_kfunc_{start,end}_defs, then
uses them to suppress warnings for two hook points in the kernel itself
and some bpf_testmod hook points as well.

BPF kfuncs are meant to be called from BPF programs. Accordingly, most
kfuncs are not called from anywhere in the kernel, which the
-Wmissing-prototypes warning is unhappy about. We've peppered
__diag_ignore_all("-Wmissing-prototypes", ... everywhere kfuncs are
defined in the codebase to suppress this warning.
This patch adds two macros meant to bound one or many kfunc definitions.
All existing kfunc definitions which use these __diag calls to suppress
-Wmissing-prototypes are migrated to use the newly-introduced macros.
A new __diag_ignore_all - for "-Wmissing-declarations" - is added to the
__bpf_kfunc_start_defs macro based on feedback from Andrii on an earlier
version of this patch [0] and another recent mailing list thread [1].
In the future we might need to ignore different warnings or do other
kfunc-specific things. This change will make it easier to make such
modifications for all kfunc defs.

css_iter and task_iter should be used in rcu section. Specifically, in
sleepable progs explicit bpf_rcu_read_lock() is needed before use these
iters. In normal bpf progs that have implicit rcu_read_lock(), it's OK to
use them directly.
This patch adds a new a KF flag KF_RCU_PROTECTED for bpf_iter_task_new and
bpf_iter_css_new. It means the kfunc should be used in RCU CS. We check
whether we are in rcu cs before we want to invoke this kfunc. If the rcu
protection is guaranteed, we would let st->type = PTR_TO_STACK | MEM_RCU.
Once user do rcu_unlock during the iteration, state MEM_RCU of regs would
be cleared. is_iter_reg_valid_init() will reject if reg->type is UNTRUSTED.
It is worth noting that currently, bpf_rcu_read_unlock does not
clear the state of the STACK_ITER reg, since bpf_for_each_spilled_reg
only considers STACK_SPILL. This patch also let bpf_for_each_spilled_reg
search STACK_ITER.

Since the btf returned from bpf_get_btf_vmlinux() only covers functions in
the vmlinux, BTF argument is not available on the functions in the modules.
Use bpf_find_btf_id() instead of bpf_get_btf_vmlinux()+btf_find_name_kind()
so that BTF argument can find the correct struct btf and btf_type in it.
With this fix, fprobe events can use `$arg*` on module functions as below
# grep nf_log_ip_packet /proc/kallsyms
ffffffffa0005c00 t nf_log_ip_packet [nf_log_syslog]
ffffffffa0005bf0 t __pfx_nf_log_ip_packet [nf_log_syslog]
# echo 'f nf_log_ip_packet $arg*' > dynamic_events
# cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/nf_log_ip_packet__entry nf_log_ip_packet net=net pf=pf hooknum=hooknum skb=skb in=in out=out loginfo=loginfo prefix=prefix
To support the module's btf which is removable, the struct btf needs to be
ref-counted. So this also records the btf in the traceprobe_parse_context
and returns the refcount when the parse has done.

We've managed to improve the UX for kptrs significantly over the last 9
months. All of the existing use cases which previously had KF_KPTR_GET
kfuncs (struct bpf_cpumask *, struct task_struct *, and struct cgroup *)
have all been updated to be synchronized using RCU. In other words,
their KF_KPTR_GET kfuncs have been removed in favor of KF_RCU |
KF_ACQUIRE kfuncs, with the pointers themselves also being readable from
maps in an RCU read region thanks to the types being RCU safe.
While KF_KPTR_GET was a logical starting point for kptrs, it's become
clear that they're not the correct abstraction. KF_KPTR_GET is a flag
that essentially does nothing other than enforcing that the argument to
a function is a pointer to a referenced kptr map value. At first glance,
that's a useful thing to guarantee to a kfunc. It gives kfuncs the
ability to try and acquire a reference on that kptr without requiring
the BPF prog to do something like this:
struct kptr_type *in_map, *new = NULL;
in_map = bpf_kptr_xchg(&map->value, NULL);
if (in_map) {
new = bpf_kptr_type_acquire(in_map);
in_map = bpf_kptr_xchg(&map->value, in_map);
if (in_map)
bpf_kptr_type_release(in_map);
}
That's clearly a pretty ugly (and racy) UX, and if using KF_KPTR_GET is
the only alternative, it's better than nothing. However, the problem
with any KF_KPTR_GET kfunc lies in the fact that it always requires some
kind of synchronization in order to safely do an opportunistic acquire
of the kptr in the map. This is because a BPF program running on another
CPU could do a bpf_kptr_xchg() on that map value, and free the kptr
after it's been read by the KF_KPTR_GET kfunc. For example, the
now-removed bpf_task_kptr_get() kfunc did the following:
struct task_struct *bpf_task_kptr_get(struct task_struct **pp)
{
struct task_struct *p;
rcu_read_lock();
p = READ_ONCE(*pp);
/* If p is non-NULL, it could still be freed by another CPU,
* so we have to do an opportunistic refcount_inc_not_zero()
* and return NULL if the task will be freed after the
* current RCU read region.
*/
|f (p && !refcount_inc_not_zero(&p->rcu_users))
p = NULL;
rcu_read_unlock();
return p;
}
In other words, the kfunc uses RCU to ensure that the task remains valid
after it's been peeked from the map. However, this is completely
redundant with just defining a KF_RCU kfunc that itself does a
refcount_inc_not_zero(), which is exactly what bpf_task_acquire() now
does.
So, the question of whether KF_KPTR_GET is useful is actually, "Are
there any synchronization mechanisms / safety flags that are required by
certain kptrs, but which are not provided by the verifier to kfuncs?"
The answer to that question today is "No", because every kptr we
currently care about is RCU protected.
Even if the answer ever became "yes", the proper way to support that
referenced kptr type would be to add support for whatever
synchronization mechanism it requires in the verifier, rather than
giving kfuncs a flag that says, "Here's a pointer to a referenced kptr
in a map, do whatever you need to do."
With all that said -- so as to allow us to consolidate the kfunc API,
and simplify the verifier a bit, this patch removes KF_KPTR_GET, and all
relevant logic from the verifier.

The btf_field_offs struct contains (offset, size) for btf_record fields,
sorted by offset. btf_field_offs is always used in conjunction with
btf_record, which has btf_field 'fields' array with (offset, type), the
latter of which btf_field_offs' size is derived from via
btf_field_type_size.
This patch adds a size field to struct btf_field and sorts btf_record's
fields by offset, making it possible to get rid of btf_field_offs. Less
data duplication and less code complexity results.
Since btf_field_offs' lifetime closely followed the btf_record used to
populate it, most complexity wins are from removal of initialization
code like:
if (btf_record_successfully_initialized) {
foffs = btf_parse_field_offs(rec);
if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(foffs))
// free the btf_record and return err
}
Other changes in this patch are pretty mechanical:
* foffs->field_off[i] -> rec->fields[i].offset
* foffs->field_sz[i] -> rec->fields[i].size
* Sort rec->fields in btf_parse_fields before returning
* It's possible that this is necessary independently of other
changes in this patch. btf_record_find in syscall.c expects
btf_record's fields to be sorted by offset, yet there's no
explicit sorting of them before this patch, record's fields are
populated in the order they're read from BTF struct definition.
BTF docs don't say anything about the sortedness of struct fields.
* All functions taking struct btf_field_offs * input now instead take
struct btf_record *. All callsites of these functions already have
access to the correct btf_record.

Add output-only log_true_size and btf_log_true_size field to
BPF_PROG_LOAD and BPF_BTF_LOAD commands, respectively. It will return
the size of log buffer necessary to fit in all the log contents at
specified log_level. This is very useful for BPF loader libraries like
libbpf to be able to size log buffer correctly, but could be used by
users directly, if necessary, as well.
This patch plumbs all this through the code, taking into account actual
bpf_attr size provided by user to determine if these new fields are
expected by users. And if they are, set them from kernel on return.
We refactory btf_parse() function to accommodate this, moving attr and
uattr handling inside it. The rest is very straightforward code, which
is split from the logging accounting changes in the previous patch to
make it simpler to review logic vs UAPI changes.

If a PTR_TO_BTF_ID type comes from program BTF - not vmlinux or module
BTF - it must have been allocated by bpf_obj_new and therefore must be
free'd with bpf_obj_drop. Such a PTR_TO_BTF_ID is considered a "local
kptr" and is tagged with MEM_ALLOC type tag by bpf_obj_new.
This patch adds support for treating __kptr-tagged pointers to "local
kptrs" as having an implicit bpf_obj_drop destructor for referenced kptr
acquire / release semantics. Consider the following example:
struct node_data {
long key;
long data;
struct bpf_rb_node node;
};
struct map_value {
struct node_data __kptr *node;
};
struct {
__uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY);
__type(key, int);
__type(value, struct map_value);
__uint(max_entries, 1);
} some_nodes SEC(".maps");
If struct node_data had a matching definition in kernel BTF, the verifier would
expect a destructor for the type to be registered. Since struct node_data does
not match any type in kernel BTF, the verifier knows that there is no kfunc
that provides a PTR_TO_BTF_ID to this type, and that such a PTR_TO_BTF_ID can
only come from bpf_obj_new. So instead of searching for a registered dtor,
a bpf_obj_drop dtor can be assumed.
This allows the runtime to properly destruct such kptrs in
bpf_obj_free_fields, which enables maps to clean up map_vals w/ such
kptrs when going away.
Implementation notes:
* "kernel_btf" variable is renamed to "kptr_btf" in btf_parse_kptr.
Before this patch, the variable would only ever point to vmlinux or
module BTFs, but now it can point to some program BTF for local kptr
type. It's later used to populate the (btf, btf_id) pair in kptr btf
field.
* It's necessary to btf_get the program BTF when populating btf_field
for local kptr. btf_record_free later does a btf_put.
* Behavior for non-local referenced kptrs is not modified, as
bpf_find_btf_id helper only searches vmlinux and module BTFs for
matching BTF type. If such a type is found, btf_field_kptr's btf will
pass btf_is_kernel check, and the associated release function is
some one-argument dtor. If btf_is_kernel check fails, associated
release function is two-arg bpf_obj_drop_impl. Before this patch
only btf_field_kptr's w/ kernel or module BTFs were created.

Add ability to register kfuncs that implement BPF open-coded iterator
contract and enforce naming and function proto convention. Enforcement
happens at the time of kfunc registration and significantly simplifies
the rest of iterators logic in the verifier.
More details follow in subsequent patches, but we enforce the following
conditions.
All kfuncs (constructor, next, destructor) have to be named consistenly
as bpf_iter_<type>_{new,next,destroy}(), respectively. <type> represents
iterator type, and iterator state should be represented as a matching
`struct bpf_iter_<type>` state type. Also, all iter kfuncs should have
a pointer to this `struct bpf_iter_<type>` as the very first argument.
Additionally:
- Constructor, i.e., bpf_iter_<type>_new(), can have arbitrary extra
number of arguments. Return type is not enforced either.
- Next method, i.e., bpf_iter_<type>_next(), has to return a pointer
type and should have exactly one argument: `struct bpf_iter_<type> *`
(const/volatile/restrict and typedefs are ignored).
- Destructor, i.e., bpf_iter_<type>_destroy(), should return void and
should have exactly one argument, similar to the next method.
- struct bpf_iter_<type> size is enforced to be positive and
a multiple of 8 bytes (to fit stack slots correctly).
Such strictness and consistency allows to build generic helpers
abstracting important, but boilerplate, details to be able to use
open-coded iterators effectively and ergonomically (see bpf_for_each()
in subsequent patches). It also simplifies the verifier logic in some
places. At the same time, this doesn't hurt generality of possible
iterator implementations. Win-win.
Constructor kfunc is marked with a new KF_ITER_NEW flags, next method is
marked with KF_ITER_NEXT (and should also have KF_RET_NULL, of course),
while destructor kfunc is marked as KF_ITER_DESTROY.
Additionally, we add a trivial kfunc name validation: it should be
a valid non-NULL and non-empty string.

The life time of certain kernel structures like 'struct cgroup' is protected by RCU.
Hence it's safe to dereference them directly from __kptr tagged pointers in bpf maps.
The resulting pointer is MEM_RCU and can be passed to kfuncs that expect KF_RCU.
Derefrence of other kptr-s returns PTR_UNTRUSTED.
For example:
struct map_value {
struct cgroup __kptr *cgrp;
};
SEC("tp_btf/cgroup_mkdir")
int BPF_PROG(test_cgrp_get_ancestors, struct cgroup *cgrp_arg, const char *path)
{
struct cgroup *cg, *cg2;
cg = bpf_cgroup_acquire(cgrp_arg); // cg is PTR_TRUSTED and ref_obj_id > 0
bpf_kptr_xchg(&v->cgrp, cg);
cg2 = v->cgrp; // This is new feature introduced by this patch.
// cg2 is PTR_MAYBE_NULL | MEM_RCU.
// When cg2 != NULL, it's a valid cgroup, but its percpu_ref could be zero
if (cg2)
bpf_cgroup_ancestor(cg2, level); // safe to do.

kfuncs are functions defined in the kernel, which may be invoked by BPF
programs. They may or may not also be used as regular kernel functions,
implying that they may be static (in which case the compiler could e.g.
inline it away, or elide one or more arguments), or it could have
external linkage, but potentially be elided in an LTO build if a
function is observed to never be used, and is stripped from the final
kernel binary.
This has already resulted in some issues, such as those discussed in [0]
wherein changes in DWARF that identify when a parameter has been
optimized out can break BTF encodings (and in general break the kfunc).
[0]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1675088985-20300-2-git-send-email-alan.maguire@oracle.com/
We therefore require some convenience macro that kfunc developers can
use just add to their kfuncs, and which will prevent all of the above
issues from happening. This is in contrast with what we have today,
where some kfunc definitions have "noinline", some have "__used", and
others are static and have neither.
Note that longer term, this mechanism may be replaced by a macro that
more closely resembles EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(), as described in [1]. For
now, we're going with this shorter-term approach to fix existing issues
in kfuncs.
[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y9AFT4pTydKh+PD3@maniforge.lan/
Note as well that checkpatch complains about this patch with the
following:
ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses
+#define __bpf_kfunc __used noinline
There seems to be a precedent for using this pattern in other places
such as compiler_types.h (see e.g. __randomize_layout and noinstr), so
it seems appropriate.

The current way of expressing that a non-bpf kernel component is willing
to accept that bpf programs can be attached to it and that they can change
the return value is to abuse ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION.
This is debated in the link below, and the result is that it is not a
reasonable thing to do.
Reuse the kfunc declaration structure to also tag the kernel functions
we want to be fmodret. This way we can control from any subsystem which
functions are being modified by bpf without touching the verifier.

Commit 9bb00b2895cb ("bpf: Add kfunc bpf_rcu_read_lock/unlock()")
introduced MEM_RCU and bpf_rcu_read_lock/unlock() support. In that
commit, a rcu pointer is tagged with both MEM_RCU and PTR_TRUSTED
so that it can be passed into kfuncs or helpers as an argument.
Martin raised a good question in [1] such that the rcu pointer,
although being able to accessing the object, might have reference
count of 0. This might cause a problem if the rcu pointer is passed
to a kfunc which expects trusted arguments where ref count should
be greater than 0.
This patch makes the following changes related to MEM_RCU pointer:
- MEM_RCU pointer might be NULL (PTR_MAYBE_NULL).
- Introduce KF_RCU so MEM_RCU ptr can be acquired with
a KF_RCU tagged kfunc which assumes ref count of rcu ptr
could be zero.
- For mem access 'b = ptr->a', say 'ptr' is a MEM_RCU ptr, and
'a' is tagged with __rcu as well. Let us mark 'b' as
MEM_RCU | PTR_MAYBE_NULL.

Implement bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() kfunc which does a type cast
of a uapi ctx object to the corresponding kernel ctx. Previously
if users want to access some data available in kctx but not
in uapi ctx, bpf_probe_read_kernel() helper is needed.

Kfuncs currently support specifying the KF_TRUSTED_ARGS flag to signal
to the verifier that it should enforce that a BPF program passes it a
"safe", trusted pointer. Currently, "safe" means that the pointer is
either PTR_TO_CTX, or is refcounted. There may be cases, however, where
the kernel passes a BPF program a safe / trusted pointer to an object
that the BPF program wishes to use as a kptr, but because the object
does not yet have a ref_obj_id from the perspective of the verifier, the
program would be unable to pass it to a KF_ACQUIRE | KF_TRUSTED_ARGS
kfunc.
The solution is to expand the set of pointers that are considered
trusted according to KF_TRUSTED_ARGS, so that programs can invoke kfuncs
with these pointers without getting rejected by the verifier.
There is already a PTR_UNTRUSTED flag that is set in some scenarios,
such as when a BPF program reads a kptr directly from a map
without performing a bpf_kptr_xchg() call. These pointers of course can
and should be rejected by the verifier. Unfortunately, however,
PTR_UNTRUSTED does not cover all the cases for safety that need to
be addressed to adequately protect kfuncs. Specifically, pointers
obtained by a BPF program "walking" a struct are _not_ considered
PTR_UNTRUSTED according to BPF. For example, say that we were to add a
kfunc called bpf_task_acquire(), with KF_ACQUIRE | KF_TRUSTED_ARGS, to
acquire a struct task_struct *. If we only used PTR_UNTRUSTED to signal
that a task was unsafe to pass to a kfunc, the verifier would mistakenly
allow the following unsafe BPF program to be loaded:
SEC("tp_btf/task_newtask")
int BPF_PROG(unsafe_acquire_task,
struct task_struct *task,
u64 clone_flags)
{
struct task_struct *acquired, *nested;
nested = task->last_wakee;
/* Would not be rejected by the verifier. */
acquired = bpf_task_acquire(nested);
if (!acquired)
return 0;
bpf_task_release(acquired);
return 0;
}
To address this, this patch defines a new type flag called PTR_TRUSTED
which tracks whether a PTR_TO_BTF_ID pointer is safe to pass to a
KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfunc or a BPF helper function. PTR_TRUSTED pointers are
passed directly from the kernel as a tracepoint or struct_ops callback
argument. Any nested pointer that is obtained from walking a PTR_TRUSTED
pointer is no longer PTR_TRUSTED. From the example above, the struct
task_struct *task argument is PTR_TRUSTED, but the 'nested' pointer
obtained from 'task->last_wakee' is not PTR_TRUSTED.
A subsequent patch will add kfuncs for storing a task kfunc as a kptr,
and then another patch will add selftests to validate.

As we continue to add more features, argument types, kfunc flags, and
different extensions to kfuncs, the code to verify the correctness of
the kfunc prototype wrt the passed in registers has become ad-hoc and
ugly to read. To make life easier, and make a very clear split between
different stages of argument processing, move all the code into
verifier.c and refactor into easier to read helpers and functions.
This also makes sharing code within the verifier easier with kfunc
argument processing. This will be more and more useful in later patches
as we are now moving to implement very core BPF helpers as kfuncs, to
keep them experimental before baking into UAPI.
Remove all kfunc related bits now from btf_check_func_arg_match, as
users have been converted away to refactored kfunc argument handling.

Ensure that there can be no ownership cycles among different types by
way of having owning objects that can hold some other type as their
element. For instance, a map value can only hold allocated objects, but
these are allowed to have another bpf_list_head. To prevent unbounded
recursion while freeing resources, elements of bpf_list_head in local
kptrs can never have a bpf_list_head which are part of list in a map
value. Later patches will verify this by having dedicated BTF selftests.
Also, to make runtime destruction easier, once btf_struct_metas is fully
populated, we can stash the metadata of the value type directly in the
metadata of the list_head fields, as that allows easier access to the
value type's layout to destruct it at runtime from the btf_field entry
of the list head itself.

Allow specifying bpf_spin_lock, bpf_list_head, bpf_list_node fields in a
allocated object.
Also update btf_struct_access to reject direct access to these special
fields.
A bpf_list_head allows implementing map-in-map style use cases, where an
allocated object with bpf_list_head is linked into a list in a map
value. This would require embedding a bpf_list_node, support for which
is also included. The bpf_spin_lock is used to protect the bpf_list_head
and other data.
While we strictly don't require to hold a bpf_spin_lock while touching
the bpf_list_head in such objects, as when have access to it, we have
complete ownership of the object, the locking constraint is still kept
and may be conditionally lifted in the future.
Note that the specification of such types can be done just like map
values, e.g.:
struct bar {
struct bpf_list_node node;
};
struct foo {
struct bpf_spin_lock lock;
struct bpf_list_head head __contains(bar, node);
struct bpf_list_node node;
};
struct map_value {
struct bpf_spin_lock lock;
struct bpf_list_head head __contains(foo, node);
};
To recognize such types in user BTF, we build a btf_struct_metas array
of metadata items corresponding to each BTF ID. This is done once during
the btf_parse stage to avoid having to do it each time during the
verification process's requirement to inspect the metadata.
Moreover, the computed metadata needs to be passed to some helpers in
future patches which requires allocating them and storing them in the
BTF that is pinned by the program itself, so that valid access can be
assumed to such data during program runtime.
A key thing to note is that once a btf_struct_meta is available for a
type, both the btf_record and btf_field_offs should be available. It is
critical that btf_field_offs is available in case special fields are
present, as we extensively rely on special fields being zeroed out in
map values and allocated objects in later patches. The code ensures that
by bailing out in case of errors and ensuring both are available
together. If the record is not available, the special fields won't be
recognized, so not having both is also fine (in terms of being a
verification error and not a runtime bug).

Refactor map->off_arr handling into generic functions that can work on
their own without hardcoding map specific code. The btf_fields_offs
structure is now returned from btf_parse_field_offs, which can be reused
later for types in program BTF.
All functions like copy_map_value, zero_map_value call generic
underlying functions so that they can also be reused later for copying
to values allocated in programs which encode specific fields.
Later, some helper functions will also require access to this
btf_field_offs structure to be able to skip over special fields at
runtime.

Now that kptr_off_tab has been refactored into btf_record, and can hold
more than one specific field type, accomodate bpf_spin_lock and
bpf_timer as well.
While they don't require any more metadata than offset, having all
special fields in one place allows us to share the same code for
allocated user defined types and handle both map values and these
allocated objects in a similar fashion.
As an optimization, we still keep spin_lock_off and timer_off offsets in
the btf_record structure, just to avoid having to find the btf_field
struct each time their offset is needed. This is mostly needed to
manipulate such objects in a map value at runtime. It's ok to hardcode
just one offset as more than one field is disallowed.

To prepare the BPF verifier to handle special fields in both map values
and program allocated types coming from program BTF, we need to refactor
the kptr_off_tab handling code into something more generic and reusable
across both cases to avoid code duplication.
Later patches also require passing this data to helpers at runtime, so
that they can work on user defined types, initialize them, destruct
them, etc.
The main observation is that both map values and such allocated types
point to a type in program BTF, hence they can be handled similarly. We
can prepare a field metadata table for both cases and store them in
struct bpf_map or struct btf depending on the use case.
Hence, refactor the code into generic btf_record and btf_field member
structs. The btf_record represents the fields of a specific btf_type in
user BTF. The cnt indicates the number of special fields we successfully
recognized, and field_mask is a bitmask of fields that were found, to
enable quick determination of availability of a certain field.
Subsequently, refactor the rest of the code to work with these generic
types, remove assumptions about kptr and kptr_off_tab, rename variables
to more meaningful names, etc.

This is useful in particular to mark the pointer as volatile, so that
compiler treats each load and store to the field as a volatile access.
The alternative is having to define and use READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE in

Allow dynamic pointers (struct bpf_dynptr_kern *) to be specified as
parameters in kfuncs. Also, ensure that dynamic pointers passed as argument
are valid and initialized, are a pointer to the stack, and of the type
local. More dynamic pointer types can be supported in the future.
To properly detect whether a parameter is of the desired type, introduce
the stringify_struct() macro to compare the returned structure name with
the desired name. In addition, protect against structure renames, by
halting the build with BUILD_BUG_ON(), so that developers have to revisit
the code.
To check if a dynamic pointer passed to the kfunc is valid and initialized,
and if its type is local, export the existing functions
is_dynptr_reg_valid_init() and is_dynptr_type_expected().

For drivers (outside of network), the incoming data is not statically
defined in a struct. Most of the time the data buffer is kzalloc-ed
and thus we can not rely on eBPF and BTF to explore the data.
This commit allows to return an arbitrary memory, previously allocated by
the driver.
An interesting extra point is that the kfunc can mark the exported
memory region as read only or read/write.
So, when a kfunc is not returning a pointer to a struct but to a plain
type, we can consider it is a valid allocated memory assuming that:
- one of the arguments is either called rdonly_buf_size or
rdwr_buf_size
- and this argument is a const from the caller point of view
We can then use this parameter as the size of the allocated memory.
The memory is either read-only or read-write based on the name
of the size parameter.

Teach the verifier to detect a new KF_TRUSTED_ARGS kfunc flag, which
means each pointer argument must be trusted, which we define as a
pointer that is referenced (has non-zero ref_obj_id) and also needs to
have its offset unchanged, similar to how release functions expect their
argument. This allows a kfunc to receive pointer arguments unchanged
from the result of the acquire kfunc.
This is required to ensure that kfunc that operate on some object only
work on acquired pointers and not normal PTR_TO_BTF_ID with same type
which can be obtained by pointer walking. The restrictions applied to
release arguments also apply to trusted arguments. This implies that
strict type matching (not deducing type by recursively following members
at offset) and OBJ_RELEASE offset checks (ensuring they are zero) are
used for trusted pointer arguments.

Instead of populating multiple sets to indicate some attribute and then
researching the same BTF ID in them, prepare a single unified BTF set
which indicates whether a kfunc is allowed to be called, and also its
attributes if any at the same time. Now, only one call is needed to
perform the lookup for both kfunc availability and its attributes.

Currently, BTF only supports upto 32bit enum value with BTF_KIND_ENUM.
But in kernel, some enum indeed has 64bit values, e.g.,
in uapi bpf.h, we have
enum {
BPF_F_INDEX_MASK = 0xffffffffULL,
BPF_F_CURRENT_CPU = BPF_F_INDEX_MASK,
BPF_F_CTXLEN_MASK = (0xfffffULL << 32),
};
In this case, BTF_KIND_ENUM will encode the value of BPF_F_CTXLEN_MASK
as 0, which certainly is incorrect.
This patch added a new btf kind, BTF_KIND_ENUM64, which permits
64bit value to cover the above use case. The BTF_KIND_ENUM64 has
the following three fields followed by the common type:
struct bpf_enum64 {
__u32 nume_off;
__u32 val_lo32;
__u32 val_hi32;
};
Currently, btf type section has an alignment of 4 as all element types
are u32. Representing the value with __u64 will introduce a pad
for bpf_enum64 and may also introduce misalignment for the 64bit value.
Hence, two members of val_hi32 and val_lo32 are chosen to avoid these issues.
The kflag is also introduced for BTF_KIND_ENUM and BTF_KIND_ENUM64
to indicate whether the value is signed or unsigned. The kflag intends
to provide consistent output of BTF C fortmat with the original
source code. For example, the original BTF_KIND_ENUM bit value is 0xffffffff.
The format C has two choices, printing out 0xffffffff or -1 and current libbpf
prints out as unsigned value. But if the signedness is preserved in btf,
the value can be printed the same as the original source code.
The kflag value 0 means unsigned values, which is consistent to the default
by libbpf and should also cover most cases as well.
The new BTF_KIND_ENUM64 is intended to support the enum value represented as
64bit value. But it can represent all BTF_KIND_ENUM values as well.
The compiler ([1]) and pahole will generate BTF_KIND_ENUM64 only if the value has
to be represented with 64 bits.
In addition, a static inline function btf_kind_core_compat() is introduced which
will be used later when libbpf relo_core.c changed. Here the kernel shares the
same relo_core.c with libbpf.

We introduce a new style of kfunc helpers, namely *_kptr_get, where they
take pointer to the map value which points to a referenced kernel
pointer contained in the map. Since this is referenced, only
bpf_kptr_xchg from BPF side and xchg from kernel side is allowed to
change the current value, and each pointer that resides in that location
would be referenced, and RCU protected (this must be kept in mind while
adding kernel types embeddable as reference kptr in BPF maps).
This means that if do the load of the pointer value in an RCU read
section, and find a live pointer, then as long as we hold RCU read lock,
it won't be freed by a parallel xchg + release operation. This allows us
to implement a safe refcount increment scheme. Hence, enforce that first
argument of all such kfunc is a proper PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE pointing at the
right offset to referenced pointer.
For the rest of the arguments, they are subjected to typical kfunc
argument checks, hence allowing some flexibility in passing more intent
into how the reference should be taken.
For instance, in case of struct nf_conn, it is not freed until RCU grace
period ends, but can still be reused for another tuple once refcount has
dropped to zero. Hence, a bpf_ct_kptr_get helper not only needs to call
refcount_inc_not_zero, b |
