Similar to BPF_PROG_RUN, turn BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY macros into proper functions
with all the same readability and maintainability benefits. Making them into
functions required shuffling around bpf_set_run_ctx/bpf_reset_run_ctx
functions. Also, explicitly specifying the type of the BPF prog run callback
required adjusting __bpf_prog_run_save_cb() to accept const void *, casted
internally to const struct sk_buff.
Further, split out a cgroup-specific BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CG and
BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CG_FLAGS from the more generic BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY due to
the differences in bpf_run_ctx used for those two different use cases.
I think BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CG would benefit from further refactoring to accept
struct cgroup and enum bpf_attach_type instead of bpf_prog_array, fetching
cgrp->bpf.effective[type] and RCU-dereferencing it internally. But that
required including include/linux/cgroup-defs.h, which I wasn't sure is ok with
everyone.
The remaining generic BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY function will be extended to
pass-through user-provided context value in the next patch.

Turn BPF_PROG_RUN into a proper always inlined function. No functional and
performance changes are intended, but it makes it much easier to understand
what's going on with how BPF programs are actually get executed. It's more
obvious what types and callbacks are expected. Also extra () around input
parameters can be dropped, as well as `__` variable prefixes intended to avoid
naming collisions, which makes the code simpler to read and write.
This refactoring also highlighted one extra issue. BPF_PROG_RUN is both
a macro and an enum value (BPF_PROG_RUN == BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN). Turning
BPF_PROG_RUN into a function causes naming conflict compilation error. So
rename BPF_PROG_RUN into lower-case bpf_prog_run(), similar to
bpf_prog_run_xdp(), bpf_prog_run_pin_on_cpu(), etc. All existing callers of
BPF_PROG_RUN, the macro, are switched to bpf_prog_run() explicitly.

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.

XDP_REDIRECT works by a three-step process: the bpf_redirect() and
bpf_redirect_map() helpers will lookup the target of the redirect and store
it (along with some other metadata) in a per-CPU struct bpf_redirect_info.
Next, when the program returns the XDP_REDIRECT return code, the driver
will call xdp_do_redirect() which will use the information thus stored to
actually enqueue the frame into a bulk queue structure (that differs
slightly by map type, but shares the same principle). Finally, before
exiting its NAPI poll loop, the driver will call xdp_do_flush(), which will
flush all the different bulk queues, thus completing the redirect.
Pointers to the map entries will be kept around for this whole sequence of
steps, protected by RCU. However, there is no top-level rcu_read_lock() in
the core code; instead drivers add their own rcu_read_lock() around the XDP
portions of the code, but somewhat inconsistently as Martin discovered[0].
However, things still work because everything happens inside a single NAPI
poll sequence, which means it's between a pair of calls to
local_bh_disable()/local_bh_enable(). So Paul suggested[1] that we could
document this intention by using rcu_dereference_check() with
rcu_read_lock_bh_held() as a second parameter, thus allowing sparse and
lockdep to verify that everything is done correctly.
This patch does just that: we add an __rcu annotation to the map entry
pointers and remove the various comments explaining the NAPI poll assurance
strewn through devmap.c in favour of a longer explanation in filter.c. The
goal is to have one coherent documentation of the entire flow, and rely on
the RCU annotations as a "standard" way of communicating the flow in the
map code (which can additionally be understood by sparse and lockdep).
The RCU annotation replacements result in a fairly straight-forward
replacement where READ_ONCE() becomes rcu_dereference_check(), WRITE_ONCE()
becomes rcu_assign_pointer() and xchg() and cmpxchg() gets wrapped in the
proper constructs to cast the pointer back and forth between __rcu and
__kernel address space (for the benefit of sparse). The one complication is
that xskmap has a few constructions where double-pointers are passed back
and forth; these simply all gain __rcu annotations, and only the final
reference/dereference to the inner-most pointer gets changed.
With this, everything can be run through sparse without eliciting
complaints, and lockdep can verify correctness even without the use of
rcu_read_lock() in the drivers. Subsequent patches will clean these up from
the drivers.

This patch introduces a new bpf_attach_type for BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_REUSEPORT
to check if the attached eBPF program is capable of migrating sockets. When
the eBPF program is attached, we run it for socket migration if the
expected_attach_type is BPF_SK_REUSEPORT_SELECT_OR_MIGRATE or
net.ipv4.tcp_migrate_req is enabled.
Currently, the expected_attach_type is not enforced for the
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_REUSEPORT type of program. Thus, this commit follows the
earlier idea in the commit aac3fc320d ("bpf: Post-hooks for sys_bind") to
fix up the zero expected_attach_type in bpf_prog_load_fixup_attach_type().
Moreover, this patch adds a new field (migrating_sk) to sk_reuseport_md to
select a new listener based on the child socket. migrating_sk varies
depending on if it is migrating a request in the accept queue or during
3WHS.
- accept_queue : sock (ESTABLISHED/SYN_RECV)
- 3WHS : request_sock (NEW_SYN_RECV)
In the eBPF program, we can select a new listener by
BPF_FUNC_sk_select_reuseport(). Also, we can cancel migration by returning
SK_DROP. This feature is useful when listeners have different settings at
the socket API level or when we want to free resources as soon as possible.
- SK_PASS with selected_sk, select it as a new listener
- SK_PASS with selected_sk NULL, fallbacks to the random selection
- SK_DROP, cancel the migration.
There is a noteworthy point. We select a listening socket in three places,
but we do not have struct skb at closing a listener or retransmitting a
SYN+ACK. On the other hand, some helper functions do not expect skb is NULL
(e.g. skb_header_pointer() in BPF_FUNC_skb_load_bytes(), skb_tail_pointer()
in BPF_FUNC_skb_load_bytes_relative()). So we allocate an empty skb
temporarily before running the eBPF program.

This patch adds two flags BPF_F_BROADCAST and BPF_F_EXCLUDE_INGRESS to
extend xdp_redirect_map for broadcast support.
With BPF_F_BROADCAST the packet will be broadcasted to all the interfaces
in the map. with BPF_F_EXCLUDE_INGRESS the ingress interface will be
excluded when do broadcasting.
When getting the devices in dev hash map via dev_map_hash_get_next_key(),
there is a possibility that we fall back to the first key when a device
was removed. This will duplicate packets on some interfaces. So just walk
the whole buckets to avoid this issue. For dev array map, we also walk the
whole map to find valid interfaces.
Function bpf_clear_redirect_map() was removed in
commit ee75aef23a ("bpf, xdp: Restructure redirect actions").
Add it back as we need to use ri->map again.

This patch adds support to BPF verifier to allow bpf program calling
kernel function directly.
The use case included in this set is to allow bpf-tcp-cc to directly
call some tcp-cc helper functions (e.g. "tcp_cong_avoid_ai()"). Those
functions have already been used by some kernel tcp-cc implementations.
This set will also allow the bpf-tcp-cc program to directly call the
kernel tcp-cc implementation, For example, a bpf_dctcp may only want to
implement its own dctcp_cwnd_event() and reuse other dctcp_*() directly
from the kernel tcp_dctcp.c instead of reimplementing (or
copy-and-pasting) them.
The tcp-cc kernel functions mentioned above will be white listed
for the struct_ops bpf-tcp-cc programs to use in a later patch.
The white listed functions are not bounded to a fixed ABI contract.
Those functions have already been used by the existing kernel tcp-cc.
If any of them has changed, both in-tree and out-of-tree kernel tcp-cc
implementations have to be changed. The same goes for the struct_ops
bpf-tcp-cc programs which have to be adjusted accordingly.
This patch is to make the required changes in the bpf verifier.
First change is in btf.c, it adds a case in "btf_check_func_arg_match()".
When the passed in "btf->kernel_btf == true", it means matching the
verifier regs' states with a kernel function. This will handle the
PTR_TO_BTF_ID reg. It also maps PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON, PTR_TO_SOCKET,
and PTR_TO_TCP_SOCK to its kernel's btf_id.
In the later libbpf patch, the insn calling a kernel function will
look like:
insn->code == (BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL)
insn->src_reg == BPF_PSEUDO_KFUNC_CALL /* <- new in this patch */
insn->imm == func_btf_id /* btf_id of the running kernel */
[ For the future calling function-in-kernel-module support, an array
of module btf_fds can be passed at the load time and insn->off
can be used to index into this array. ]
At the early stage of verifier, the verifier will collect all kernel
function calls into "struct bpf_kfunc_desc". Those
descriptors are stored in "prog->aux->kfunc_tab" and will
be available to the JIT. Since this "add" operation is similar
to the current "add_subprog()" and looking for the same insn->code,
they are done together in the new "add_subprog_and_kfunc()".
In the "do_check()" stage, the new "check_kfunc_call()" is added
to verify the kernel function call instruction:
1. Ensure the kernel function can be used by a particular BPF_PROG_TYPE.
A new bpf_verifier_ops "check_kfunc_call" is added to do that.
The bpf-tcp-cc struct_ops program will implement this function in
a later patch.
2. Call "btf_check_kfunc_args_match()" to ensure the regs can be
used as the args of a kernel function.
3. Mark the regs' type, subreg_def, and zext_dst.
At the later do_misc_fixups() stage, the new fixup_kfunc_call()
will replace the insn->imm with the function address (relative
to __bpf_call_base). If needed, the jit can find the btf_func_model
by calling the new bpf_jit_find_kfunc_model(prog, insn).
With the imm set to the function address, "bpftool prog dump xlated"
will be able to display the kernel function calls the same way as
it displays other bpf helper calls.
gpl_compatible program is required to call kernel function.
This feature currently requires JIT.
The verifier selftests are adjusted because of the changes in
the verbose log in add_subprog_and_kfunc().

It is a prep work for the kernel function call support. In a later
patch, freeing the kernel function call descriptors will also
be done in the "bpf_prog_jit_attempt_done()".
"bpf_prog_free_linfo()" is removed since it is only called by
"__bpf_prog_put_noref()". The kvfree() are directly called
instead.

The XDP_REDIRECT implementations for maps and non-maps are fairly
similar, but obviously need to take different code paths depending on
if the target is using a map or not. Today, the redirect targets for
XDP either uses a map, or is based on ifindex.
Here, the map type and id are added to bpf_redirect_info, instead of
the actual map. Map type, map item/ifindex, and the map_id (if any) is
passed to xdp_do_redirect().
For ifindex-based redirect, used by the bpf_redirect() XDP BFP helper,
a special map type/id are used. Map type of UNSPEC together with map id
equal to INT_MAX has the special meaning of an ifindex based
redirect. Note that valid map ids are 1 inclusive, INT_MAX exclusive
([1,INT_MAX[).
In addition to making the code easier to follow, using explicit type
and id in bpf_redirect_info has a slight positive performance impact
by avoiding a pointer indirection for the map type lookup, and instead
use the cacheline for bpf_redirect_info.
Since the actual map is not passed via bpf_redirect_info anymore, the
map lookup is only done in the BPF helper. This means that the
bpf_clear_redirect_map() function can be removed. The actual map item
is RCU protected.
The bpf_redirect_info flags member is not used by XDP, and not
read/written any more. The map member is only written to when
required/used, and not unconditionally.

Currently the bpf_redirect_map() implementation dispatches to the
correct map-lookup function via a switch-statement. To avoid the
dispatching, this change adds bpf_redirect_map() as a map
operation. Each map provides its bpf_redirect_map() version, and
correct function is automatically selected by the BPF verifier.
A nice side-effect of the code movement is that the map lookup
functions are now local to the map implementation files, which removes
one additional function call.

When we attach a bpf program to cgroup/getsockopt any other getsockopt()
syscall starts incurring kzalloc/kfree cost.
Let add a small buffer on the stack and use it for small (majority)
{s,g}etsockopt values. The buffer is small enough to fit into
the cache line and cover the majority of simple options (most
of them are 4 byte ints).
It seems natural to do the same for setsockopt, but it's a bit more
involved when the BPF program modifies the data (where we have to
kmalloc). The assumption is that for the majority of setsockopt
calls (which are doing pure BPF options or apply policy) this
will bring some benefit as well.

This adds instructions for
atomic[64]_[fetch_]and
atomic[64]_[fetch_]or
atomic[64]_[fetch_]xor
All these operations are isomorphic enough to implement with the same
verifier, interpreter, and x86 JIT code, hence being a single commit.
The main interesting thing here is that x86 doesn't directly support
the fetch_ version these operations, so we need to generate a CMPXCHG
loop in the JIT. This requires the use of two temporary registers,
IIUC it's safe to use BPF_REG_AX and x86's AUX_REG for this purpose.

This adds two atomic opcodes, both of which include the BPF_FETCH
flag. XCHG without the BPF_FETCH flag would naturally encode
atomic_set. This is not supported because it would be of limited
value to userspace (it doesn't imply any barriers). CMPXCHG without
BPF_FETCH woulud be an atomic compare-and-write. We don't have such
an operation in the kernel so it isn't provided to BPF either.
There are two significant design decisions made for the CMPXCHG
instruction:
- To solve the issue that this operation fundamentally has 3
operands, but we only have two register fields. Therefore the
operand we compare against (the kernel's API calls it 'old') is
hard-coded to be R0. x86 has similar design (and A64 doesn't
have this problem).
A potential alternative might be to encode the other operand's
register number in the immediate field.
- The kernel's atomic_cmpxchg returns the old value, while the C11
userspace APIs return a boolean indicating the comparison
result. Which should BPF do? A64 returns the old value. x86 returns
the old value in the hard-coded register (and also sets a
flag). That means return-old-value is easier to JIT, so that's
what we use.

A subsequent patch will add additional atomic operations. These new
operations will use the same opcode field as the existing XADD, with
the immediate discriminating different operations.
In preparation, rename the instruction mode BPF_ATOMIC and start
calling the zero immediate BPF_ADD.
This is possible (doesn't break existing valid BPF progs) because the
immediate field is currently reserved MBZ and BPF_ADD is zero.
All uses are removed from the tree but the BPF_XADD definition is
kept around to avoid breaking builds for people including kernel
headers.
