bpf: Implement verifier support for rqspinlock

Introduce verifier-side support for rqspinlock kfuncs. The first step is
allowing bpf_res_spin_lock type to be defined in map values and
allocated objects, so BTF-side is updated with a new BPF_RES_SPIN_LOCK
field to recognize and validate.

Any object cannot have both bpf_spin_lock and bpf_res_spin_lock, only
one of them (and at most one of them per-object, like before) must be
present. The bpf_res_spin_lock can also be used to protect objects that
require lock protection for their kfuncs, like BPF rbtree and linked
list.

The verifier plumbing to simulate success and failure cases when calling
the kfuncs is done by pushing a new verifier state to the verifier state
stack which will verify the failure case upon calling the kfunc. The
path where success is indicated creates all lock reference state and IRQ
state (if necessary for irqsave variants). In the case of failure, the
state clears the registers r0-r5, sets the return value, and skips kfunc
processing, proceeding to the next instruction.

When marking the return value for success case, the value is marked as
0, and for the failure case as [-MAX_ERRNO, -1]. Then, in the program,
whenever user checks the return value as 'if (ret)' or 'if (ret < 0)'
the verifier never traverses such branches for success cases, and would
be aware that the lock is not held in such cases.

We push the kfunc state in check_kfunc_call whenever rqspinlock kfuncs
are invoked. We introduce a kfunc_class state to avoid mixing lock
irqrestore kfuncs with IRQ state created by bpf_local_irq_save.

With all this infrastructure, these kfuncs become usable in programs
while satisfying all safety properties required by the kernel.

bpf: Introduce rqspinlock kfuncs

Introduce four new kfuncs, bpf_res_spin_lock, and bpf_res_spin_unlock,
and their irqsave/irqrestore variants, which wrap the rqspinlock APIs.
bpf_res_spin_lock returns a conditional result, depending on whether the
lock was acquired (NULL is returned when lock acquisition succeeds,
non-NULL upon failure). The memory pointed to by the returned pointer
upon failure can be dereferenced after the NULL check to obtain the
error code.

Instead of using the old bpf_spin_lock type, introduce a new type with
the same layout, and the same alignment, but a different name to avoid
type confusion.

Preemption is disabled upon successful lock acquisition, however IRQs
are not. Special kfuncs can be introduced later to allow disabling IRQs
when taking a spin lock. Resilient locks are safe against AA deadlocks,
hence not disabling IRQs currently does not allow violation of kernel
safety.

__irq_flag annotation is used to accept IRQ flags for the IRQ-variants,
with the same semantics as existing bpf_local_irq_{save, restore}.

These kfuncs will require additional verifier-side support in subsequent
commits, to allow programs to hold multiple locks at the same time.

bpf: Introduce load-acquire and store-release instructions

Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release
semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags:

#define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100
#define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110

A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm'
field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100).

Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with
the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110).

Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support
BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and
store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an
exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not
supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the
kernel test robot).

An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to
a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends.

Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned
load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if
BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set).

As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF
instruction (assuming little-endian):

db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))

opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ

Similarly, a 16-bit BPF store-release:

cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00 store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2)

opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL

In arch/{arm64,s390,x86}/net/bpf_jit_comp.c, have
bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) return false for the new
instructions, until the corresponding JIT compiler supports them in
arena.

bpf: Add verifier support for timed may_goto

Implement support in the verifier for replacing may_goto implementation
from a counter-based approach to one which samples time on the local CPU
to have a bigger loop bound.

We implement it by maintaining 16-bytes per-stack frame, and using 8
bytes for maintaining the count for amortizing time sampling, and 8
bytes for the starting timestamp. To minimize overhead, we need to avoid
spilling and filling of registers around this sequence, so we push this
cost into the time sampling function 'arch_bpf_timed_may_goto'. This is
a JIT-specific wrapper around bpf_check_timed_may_goto which returns us
the count to store into the stack through BPF_REG_AX. All caller-saved
registers (r0-r5) are guaranteed to remain untouched.

The loop can be broken by returning count as 0, otherwise we dispatch
into the function when the count drops to 0, and the runtime chooses to
refresh it (by returning count as BPF_MAX_TIMED_LOOPS) or returning 0
and aborting the loop on next iteration.

Since the check for 0 is done right after loading the count from the
stack, all subsequent cond_break sequences should immediately break as
well, of the same loop or subsequent loops in the program.

We pass in the stack_depth of the count (and thus the timestamp, by
adding 8 to it) to the arch_bpf_timed_may_goto call so that it can be
passed in to bpf_check_timed_may_goto as an argument after r1 is saved,
by adding the offset to r10/fp. This adjustment will be arch specific,
and the next patch will introduce support for x86.

Note that depending on loop complexity, time spent in the loop can be
more than the current limit (250 ms), but imposing an upper bound on
program runtime is an orthogonal problem which will be addressed when
program cancellations are supported.

The current time afforded by cond_break may not be enough for cases
where BPF programs want to implement locking algorithms inline, and use
cond_break as a promise to the verifier that they will eventually
terminate.

Below are some benchmarking numbers on the time taken per-iteration for
an empty loop that counts the number of iterations until cond_break
fires. For comparison, we compare it against bpf_for/bpf_repeat which is
another way to achieve the same number of spins (BPF_MAX_LOOPS). The
hardware used for benchmarking was a Sapphire Rapids Intel server with
performance governor enabled, mitigations were enabled.

+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
| Loop type | Iterations | Time (ms) | Time/iter (ns) |
+-----------------------------|--------------+--------------+------------------+
| may_goto | 8388608 | 3 | 0.36 |
| timed_may_goto (count=65535)| 589674932 | 250 | 0.42 |
| bpf_for | 8388608 | 10 | 1.19 |
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+

This gives a good approximation at low overhead while staying close to
the current implementation.

bpf: Summarize sleepable global subprogs

The verifier currently does not permit global subprog calls when a lock
is held, preemption is disabled, or when IRQs are disabled. This is
because we don't know whether the global subprog calls sleepable
functions or not.

In case of locks, there's an additional reason: functions called by the
global subprog may hold additional locks etc. The verifier won't know
while verifying the global subprog whether it was called in context
where a spin lock is already held by the program.

Perform summarization of the sleepable nature of a global subprog just
like changes_pkt_data and then allow calls to global subprogs for
non-sleepable ones from atomic context.

While making this change, I noticed that RCU read sections had no
protection against sleepable global subprog calls, include it in the
checks and fix this while we're at it.

Care needs to be taken to not allow global subprog calls when regular
bpf_spin_lock is held. When resilient spin locks is held, we want to
potentially have this check relaxed, but not for now.

Also make sure extensions freplacing global functions cannot do so
in case the target is non-sleepable, but the extension is. The other
combination is ok.

Tests are included in the next patch to handle all special conditions.

bpf: Support getting referenced kptr from struct_ops argument

Allows struct_ops programs to acqurie referenced kptrs from arguments
by directly reading the argument.

The verifier will acquire a reference for struct_ops a argument tagged
with "__ref" in the stub function in the beginning of the main program.
The user will be able to access the referenced kptr directly by reading
the context as long as it has not been released by the program.

This new mechanism to acquire referenced kptr (compared to the existing
"kfunc with KF_ACQUIRE") is introduced for ergonomic and semantic reasons.
In the first use case, Qdisc_ops, an skb is passed to .enqueue in the
first argument. This mechanism provides a natural way for users to get a
referenced kptr in the .enqueue struct_ops programs and makes sure that a
qdisc will always enqueue or drop the skb.

Currently, ctx_arg_info is read-only in the view of the verifier since

In the next patch where we support acquiring a referenced kptr through a
struct_ops argument tagged with "__ref", ctx_arg_info->ref_obj_id will
be used to store the unique reference object id of the argument. This
avoids creating a requirement in the verifier that "__ref" tagged
arguments must be the first set of references acquired [0].

bpf: Revert "bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL"

This patch reverts commit
cb4158ce8ec8 ("bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL"). The
patch was well-intended and meant to be as a stop-gap fixing branch
prediction when the pointer may actually be NULL at runtime. Eventually,
it was supposed to be replaced by an automated script or compiler pass
detecting possibly NULL arguments and marking them accordingly.

However, it caused two main issues observed for production programs and
failed to preserve backwards compatibility. First, programs relied on
the verifier not exploring == NULL branch when pointer is not NULL, thus
they started failing with a 'dereference of scalar' error. Next,
allowing raw_tp arguments to be modified surfaced the warning in the
verifier that warns against reg->off when PTR_MAYBE_NULL is set.

More information, context, and discusson on both problems is available
in [0]. Overall, this approach had several shortcomings, and the fixes
would further complicate the verifier's logic, and the entire masking
scheme would have to be removed eventually anyway.

Hence, revert the patch in preparation of a better fix avoiding these
issues to replace this commit.

bpf: Fix theoretical prog_array UAF in __uprobe_perf_func()

Currently, the pointer stored in call->prog_array is loaded in
__uprobe_perf_func(), with no RCU annotation and no immediately visible
RCU protection, so it looks as if the loaded pointer can immediately be
dangling.
Later, bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe() starts a RCU-trace read-side critical
section, but this is too late. It then uses rcu_dereference_check(), but
this use of rcu_dereference_check() does not actually dereference anything.

Fix it by aligning the semantics to bpf_prog_run_array(): Let the caller
provide rcu_read_lock_trace() protection and then load call->prog_array
with rcu_dereference_check().

This issue seems to be theoretical: I don't know of any way to reach this
code without having handle_swbp() further up the stack, which is already
holding a rcu_read_lock_trace() lock, so where we take
rcu_read_lock_trace() in __uprobe_perf_func()/bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe()
doesn't actually have any effect.

bpf: check changes_pkt_data property for extension programs

When processing calls to global sub-programs, verifier decides whether
to invalidate all packet pointers in current state depending on the
changes_pkt_data property of the global sub-program.

Because of this, an extension program replacing a global sub-program
must be compatible with changes_pkt_data property of the sub-program
being replaced.

This commit:
- adds changes_pkt_data flag to struct bpf_prog_aux:
- this flag is set in check_cfg() for main sub-program;
- in jit_subprogs() for other sub-programs;
- modifies bpf_check_attach_btf_id() to check changes_pkt_data flag;
- moves call to check_attach_btf_id() after the call to check_cfg(),
because it needs changes_pkt_data flag to be set:

bpf_check:
... ...
- check_attach_btf_id resolve_pseudo_ldimm64
resolve_pseudo_ldimm64 --> bpf_prog_is_offloaded
bpf_prog_is_offloaded check_cfg
check_cfg + check_attach_btf_id
... ...

The following fields are set by check_attach_btf_id():
- env->ops
- prog->aux->attach_btf_trace
- prog->aux->attach_func_name
- prog->aux->attach_func_proto
- prog->aux->dst_trampoline
- prog->aux->mod
- prog->aux->saved_dst_attach_type
- prog->aux->saved_dst_prog_type
- prog->expected_attach_type

Neither of these fields are used by resolve_pseudo_ldimm64() or
bpf_prog_offload_verifier_prep() (for netronome and netdevsim
drivers), so the reordering is safe.

bpf: Add kernel symbol for struct_ops trampoline

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__<struct_ops_name>_<member_name>, where <struct_ops_name> is the
type name of the struct_ops, and <member_name> is the name of
the member that the trampoline is linked to.

bpf: Support private stack for struct_ops progs

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

[8 bytes to protect overflow] [normal stack] [8 bytes to protect underflow]
If overflow/underflow is detected, kernel messages will be
emited in dmesg like
BPF private stack overflow/underflow detected for prog Fx
BPF Private stack overflow/underflow detected for prog bpf_prog_a41699c234a1567a_subprog1x
Those messages are generated when I made some changes to jitted code
to intentially cause overflow for some progs.

For the jited prog, The x86 register 9 (X86_REG_R9) is used to replace
bpf frame register (BPF_REG_10). The private stack is used per
subprog per cpu. The X86_REG_R9 is saved and restored around every
func call (not including tailcall) to maintain correctness of
X86_REG_R9.

bpf: Enable private stack for eligible subprogs

If private stack is used by any subprog, set that subprog
prog->aux->jits_use_priv_stack to be true so later jit can allocate
private stack for that subprog properly.

Also set env->prog->aux->jits_use_priv_stack to be true if
any subprog uses private stack. This is a use case for a
single main prog (no subprogs) to use private stack, and
also a use case for later struct-ops progs where
env->prog->aux->jits_use_priv_stack will enable recursion
check if any subprog uses private stack.

bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL

Arguments to a raw tracepoint are tagged as trusted, which carries the
semantics that the pointer will be non-NULL. However, in certain cases,
a raw tracepoint argument may end up being NULL. More context about this
issue is available in [0].

Thus, there is a discrepancy between the reality, that raw_tp arguments
can actually be NULL, and the verifier's knowledge, that they are never
NULL, causing explicit NULL checks to be deleted, and accesses to such
pointers potentially crashing the kernel.

To fix this, mark raw_tp arguments as PTR_MAYBE_NULL, and then special
case the dereference and pointer arithmetic to permit it, and allow
passing them into helpers/kfuncs; these exceptions are made for raw_tp
programs only. Ensure that we don't do this when ref_obj_id > 0, as in
that case this is an acquired object and doesn't need such adjustment.

The reason we do mask_raw_tp_trusted_reg logic is because other will
recheck in places whether the register is a trusted_reg, and then
consider our register as untrusted when detecting the presence of the
PTR_MAYBE_NULL flag.

To allow safe dereference, we enable PROBE_MEM marking when we see loads
into trusted pointers with PTR_MAYBE_NULL.

While trusted raw_tp arguments can also be passed into helpers or kfuncs
where such broken assumption may cause issues, a future patch set will
tackle their case separately, as PTR_TO_BTF_ID (without PTR_TRUSTED) can
already be passed into helpers and causes similar problems. Thus, they
are left alone for now.

It is possible that these checks also permit passing non-raw_tp args
that are trusted PTR_TO_BTF_ID with null marking. In such a case,
allowing dereference when pointer is NULL expands allowed behavior, so
won't regress existing programs, and the case of passing these into
helpers is the same as above and will be dealt with later.

Also update the failure case in tp_btf_nullable selftest to capture the
new behavior, as the verifier will no longer cause an error when
directly dereference a raw tracepoint argument marked as __nullable.

bpf: decouple BPF link/attach hook and BPF program sleepable semantics

BPF link's lifecycle protection scheme depends on both BPF hook and BPF
program. If *either* of those require RCU Tasks Trace GP, then we need
to go through a chain of GPs before putting BPF program refcount and
deallocating BPF link memory.

This patch adds bpf_link-specific sleepable flag, which can be set to
true even if underlying BPF program is not sleepable itself. If either
link->sleepable or link->prog->sleepable is true, we'll go through
a chain of RCU Tasks Trace GP and RCU GP before putting BPF program and
freeing memory.

This will be used to protect BPF link for sleepable (faultable) raw
tracepoints in the next patch.

bpf: Add uptr support in the map_value of the task local storage.

This patch adds uptr support in the map_value of the task local storage.

struct map_value {
struct user_data __uptr *uptr;
};

struct {
__uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_TASK_STORAGE);
__uint(map_flags, BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC);
__type(key, int);
__type(value, struct value_type);
} datamap SEC(".maps");

A new bpf_obj_pin_uptrs() is added to pin the user page and
also stores the kernel address back to the uptr for the
bpf prog to use later. It currently does not support
the uptr pointing to a user struct across two pages.
It also excludes PageHighMem support to keep it simple.
As of now, the 32bit bpf jit is missing other more crucial bpf
features. For example, many important bpf features depend on
bpf kfunc now but so far only one arch (x86-32) supports it
which was added by me as an example when kfunc was first
introduced to bpf.

The uptr can only be stored to the task local storage by the
syscall update_elem. Meaning the uptr will not be considered
if it is provided by the bpf prog through
bpf_task_storage_get(BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE).
This is enforced by only calling
bpf_local_storage_update(swap_uptrs==true) in
bpf_pid_task_storage_update_elem. Everywhere else will
have swap_uptrs==false.

This will pump down to bpf_selem_alloc(swap_uptrs==true). It is
the only case that bpf_selem_alloc() will take the uptr value when
updating the newly allocated selem. bpf_obj_swap_uptrs() is added
to swap the uptr between the SDATA(selem)->data and the user provided
map_value in "void *value". bpf_obj_swap_uptrs() makes the
SDATA(selem)->data takes the ownership of the uptr and the user space
provided map_value will have NULL in the uptr.

The bpf_obj_unpin_uptrs() is called after map->ops->map_update_elem()
returning error. If the map->ops->map_update_elem has reached
a state that the local storage has taken the uptr ownership,
the bpf_obj_unpin_uptrs() will be a no op because the uptr
is NULL. A "__"bpf_obj_unpin_uptrs is added to make this
error path unpin easier such that it does not have to check
the map->record is NULL or not.

BPF_F_LOCK is not supported when the map_value has uptr.
This can be revisited later if there is a use case. A similar
swap_uptrs idea can be considered.

The final bit is to do unpin_user_page in the bpf_obj_free_fields().
The earlier patch has ensured that the bpf_obj_free_fields() has
gone through the rcu gp when needed.

bpf: Support __uptr type tag in BTF

This patch introduces the "__uptr" type tag to BTF. It is to define
a pointer pointing to the user space memory. This patch adds BTF
logic to pass the "__uptr" type tag.

btf_find_kptr() is reused for the "__uptr" tag. The "__uptr" will only
be supported in the map_value of the task storage map. However,
btf_parse_struct_meta() also uses btf_find_kptr() but it is not
interested in "__uptr". This patch adds a "field_mask" argument
to btf_find_kptr() which will return BTF_FIELD_IGNORE if the
caller is not interested in a “__uptr” field.

btf_parse_kptr() is also reused to parse the uptr.
The btf_check_and_fixup_fields() is changed to do extra
checks on the uptr to ensure that its struct size is not larger
than PAGE_SIZE. It is not clear how a uptr pointing to a CO-RE
supported kernel struct will be used, so it is also not allowed now.

Add a MEM_WRITE attribute for BPF helper functions which can be used in
bpf_func_proto to annotate an argument type in order to let the verifier
know that the helper writes into the memory passed as an argument. In
the past MEM_UNINIT has been (ab)used for this function, but the latter
merely tells the verifier that the passed memory can be uninitialized.

There have been bugs with overloading the latter but aside from that
there are also cases where the passed memory is read + written which
currently cannot be expressed, see also 4b3786a6c539 ("bpf: Zero former
