The clang compiler (clang 19 and 20) generates
may_goto 2
may_goto 1
may_goto 0
r1 = 0
r2 = 0
r3 = 0
The above asm codes are due to llvm pass SROAPass. This ensures the
successful verification since tmp[0-2] are initialized. Otherwise,
the code without SROAPass like
may_goto 5
r1 = 0
may_goto 3
r2 = 0
may_goto 1
r3 = 0
will have verification failure.
Although from the source code C-based test should have verification
failure, clang compiler optimization generates code with successful
verification. If gcc generates different asm codes than clang, the
following code can be used for gcc:
int i, tmp[3];
for (i = 0; i < 3; i++)
tmp[i] = 0;

The main purpose of the test is to demonstrate the lock problem for the
free of bpf_timer under PREEMPT_RT. When freeing a bpf_timer which is
running on other CPU in bpf_timer_cancel_and_free(), hrtimer_cancel()
will try to acquire a spin-lock (namely softirq_expiry_lock), however
the freeing procedure has already held a raw-spin-lock.
The test first creates two threads: one to start timers and the other to
free timers. The start-timers thread will start the timer and then wake
up the free-timers thread to free these timers when the starts complete.
After freeing, the free-timer thread will wake up the start-timer thread
to complete the current iteration. A loop of 10 iterations is used.

The type is union shortname_storage; it's a union of arrays of
unsigned char and unsigned long.
struct name_snapshot.inline_name turned into union shortname_storage;
users (all in fs/dcache.c) adjusted.
struct dentry.d_iname has some users outside of fs/dcache.c; to
reduce the amount of noise in commit, it is replaced with
union shortname_storage d_shortname and d_iname is turned into a macro
that expands to d_shortname.string (similar to d_lock handling).
That compat macro is temporary - most of the remaining instances will
be taken out by debugfs series, and once that is merged and few others

Test that nullness elision works for common use cases. For example, we
want to check that both constant scalar spills and STACK_ZERO functions.
As well as when there's both const and non-const values of R2 leading up
to a lookup. And obviously some bound checks.
Particularly tricky are spills both smaller or larger than key size. For
smaller, we need to ensure verifier doesn't let through a potential read
into unchecked bytes. For larger, endianness comes into play, as the
native endian value tracked in the verifier may not be the bytes the
kernel would have read out of the key pointer. So check that we disallow
both.

This commit allows progs to elide a null check on statically known map
lookup keys. In other words, if the verifier can statically prove that
the lookup will be in-bounds, allow the prog to drop the null check.
This is useful for two reasons:
1. Large numbers of nullness checks (especially when they cannot fail)
unnecessarily pushes prog towards BPF_COMPLEXITY_LIMIT_JMP_SEQ.
2. It forms a tighter contract between programmer and verifier.
For (1), bpftrace is starting to make heavier use of percpu scratch
maps. As a result, for user scripts with large number of unrolled loops,
we are starting to hit jump complexity verification errors. These
percpu lookups cannot fail anyways, as we only use static key values.
Eliding nullness probably results in less work for verifier as well.
For (2), percpu scratch maps are often used as a larger stack, as the
currrent stack is limited to 512 bytes. In these situations, it is
desirable for the programmer to express: "this lookup should never fail,
and if it does, it means I messed up the code". By omitting the null
check, the programmer can "ask" the verifier to double check the logic.
Tests also have to be updated in sync with these changes, as the
verifier is more efficient with this change. Notable, iters.c tests had
to be changed to use a map type that still requires null checks, as it's
exercising verifier tracking logic w.r.t iterators.

Previously, the verifier was treating all PTR_TO_STACK registers passed
to a helper call as potentially written to by the helper. However, all
calls to check_stack_range_initialized() already have precise access type
information available.
Rather than treat ACCESS_HELPER as a proxy for BPF_WRITE, pass
enum bpf_access_type to check_stack_range_initialized() to more
precisely track helper arguments.
One benefit from this precision is that registers tracked as valid
spills and passed as a read-only helper argument remain tracked after
the call. Rather than being marked STACK_MISC afterwards.
An additional benefit is the verifier logs are also more precise. For
this particular error, users will enjoy a slightly clearer message. See
included selftest updates for examples.

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 check branch to be dead code eliminated.
A previous attempt [1], i.e. the second fixed commit, was made to
simulate symbolic execution as if in most accesses, the argument is a
non-NULL raw_tp, except for conditional jumps. This tried to suppress
branch prediction while preserving compatibility, but surfaced issues
with production programs that were difficult to solve without increasing
verifier complexity. A more complete discussion of issues and fixes is
available at [2].
Fix this by maintaining an explicit list of tracepoints where the
arguments are known to be NULL, and mark the positional arguments as
PTR_MAYBE_NULL. Additionally, capture the tracepoints where arguments
are known to be ERR_PTR, and mark these arguments as scalar values to
prevent potential dereference.
Each hex digit is used to encode NULL-ness (0x1) or ERR_PTR-ness (0x2),
shifted by the zero-indexed argument number x 4. This can be represented
as follows:
1st arg: 0x1
2nd arg: 0x10
3rd arg: 0x100
... and so on (likewise for ERR_PTR case).
In the future, an automated pass will be used to produce such a list, or
insert __nullable annotations automatically for tracepoints. Each
compilation unit will be analyzed and results will be collated to find
whether a tracepoint pointer is definitely not null, maybe null, or an
unknown state where verifier conservatively marks it PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
A proof of concept of this tool from Eduard is available at [3].
Note that in case we don't find a specification in the raw_tp_null_args
array and the tracepoint belongs to a kernel module, we will
conservatively mark the arguments as PTR_MAYBE_NULL. This is because
unlike for in-tree modules, out-of-tree module tracepoints may pass NULL
freely to the tracepoint. We don't protect against such tracepoints
passing ERR_PTR (which is uncommon anyway), lest we mark all such
arguments as SCALAR_VALUE.
While we are it, let's adjust the test raw_tp_null to not perform
dereference of the skb->mark, as that won't be allowed anymore, and make
it more robust by using inline assembly to test the dead code

This patch reverts commit
cb4158ce8e ("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.

Robert Morris reported the following program type which passes the
verifier in [0]:
SEC("struct_ops/bpf_cubic_init")
void BPF_PROG(bpf_cubic_init, struct sock *sk)
{
asm volatile("r2 = *(u16*)(r1 + 0)"); // verifier should demand u64
asm volatile("*(u32 *)(r2 +1504) = 0"); // 1280 in some configs
}
The second line may or may not work, but the first instruction shouldn't
pass, as it's a narrow load into the context structure of the struct ops
callback. The code falls back to btf_ctx_access to ensure correctness
and obtaining the types of pointers. Ensure that the size of the access
is correctly checked to be 8 bytes, otherwise the verifier thinks the
narrow load obtained a trusted BTF pointer and will permit loads/stores
as it sees fit.
Perform the check on size after we've verified that the load is for a
pointer field, as for scalar values narrow loads are fine. Access to
structs passed as arguments to a BPF program are also treated as
scalars, therefore no adjustment is needed in their case.
Existing verifier selftests are broken by this change, but because they
were incorrect. Verifier tests for d_path were performing narrow load
into context to obtain path pointer, had this program actually run it
would cause a crash. The same holds for verifier_btf_ctx_access tests.

Tail-called programs could execute any of the helpers that invalidate
packet pointers. Hence, conservatively assume that each tail call
invalidates packet pointers.
Making the change in bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() automatically makes
use of check_cfg() logic that computes 'changes_pkt_data' effect for
global sub-programs, such that the following program could be
rejected:
int tail_call(struct __sk_buff *sk)
{
bpf_tail_call_static(sk, &jmp_table, 0);
return 0;
}
SEC("tc")
int not_safe(struct __sk_buff *sk)
{
int *p = (void *)(long)sk->data;
... make p valid ...
tail_call(sk);
*p = 42; /* this is unsafe */
...
}
The tc_bpf2bpf.c:subprog_tc() needs change: mark it as a function that
can invalidate packet pointers. Otherwise, it can't be freplaced with
tailcall_freplace.c:entry_freplace() that does a tail call.

With CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE enabled on powerpc, ftrace_location_range
returns ftrace location for bpf_fentry_test1 at offset of 4 bytes from
function entry. This is because branch to _mcount function is at offset
of 4 bytes in function profile sequence.
To fix this, add entry_offset of 4 bytes while verifying the address for
kprobe entry address of bpf_fentry_test1 in verify_perf_link_info in
selftest, when CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is enabled.
Disassemble of bpf_fentry_test1:

c000000000e4b080: a6 02 08 7c mflr r0

When CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE [1] is enabled, these function profile
sequence is moved out of line with an unconditional branch at offset 0.
So, the test works without altering the offset for
'CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE && CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE' case.

The selftests build four kernel modules which use copy-pasted Makefile
targets. This is a bit messy, and doesn't scale so well when we add more
modules, so let's consolidate these rules into a single rule generated
for each module name, and move the module sources into a single
directory.
To avoid parallel builds of the different modules stepping on each
other's toes during the 'modpost' phase of the Kbuild 'make modules',
the module files should really be a grouped target. However, make only
added explicit support for grouped targets in version 4.3, which is
newer than the minimum version supported by the kernel. However, make
implicitly treats pattern matching rules with multiple targets as a
grouped target, so we can work around this by turning the rule into a
pattern matching target. We do this by replacing '.ko' with '%ko' in the
targets with subst().

Add a __caps_unpriv annotation so that tests requiring specific
capabilities while dropping the rest can conveniently specify them
during selftest declaration instead of munging with capabilities at
runtime from the testing binary.
While at it, let us convert test_verifier_mtu to use this new support
instead.
Since we do not want to include linux/capability.h, we only defined the
four main capabilities BPF subsystem deals with in bpf_misc.h for use in
tests. If the user passes a CAP_SYS_NICE or anything else that's not
defined in the header, capability parsing code will return a warning.
Also reject strtol returning 0. CAP_CHOWN = 0 but we'll never need to
use it, and strtol doesn't errno on failed conversion. Fail the test in
such a case.

Currently, KF_ARG_PTR_TO_ITER handling missed checking the reg->type and
ensuring it is PTR_TO_STACK. Instead of enforcing this in the caller of
process_iter_arg, move the check into it instead so that all callers
will gain the check by default. This is similar to process_dynptr_func.
An existing selftest in verifier_bits_iter.c fails due to this change,
but it's because it was passing a NULL pointer into iter_next helper and
getting an error further down the checks, but probably meant to pass an
uninitialized iterator on the stack (as is done in the subsequent test
below it). We will gain coverage for non-PTR_TO_STACK arguments in later
patches hence just change the declaration to zero-ed stack object.

The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core
----
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infra is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL
knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read
access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
--------------------------------------------
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API,
This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.
Netfilter
---------
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users
the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent
CI improvements.
BPF
---
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.
Protocols
---------
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close,
the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device
neigh lists.
Driver API
----------
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping,
and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify
the cleanup phase
Drivers
-------
- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
introspection.
- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- mlx5:
- a large refactor to implement support for cross E-Switch
scheduling
- refactor H/W conter management to let it scale better
- H/W GRO cleanups
- Intel (100G, ice)::
- adds support for ethtool reset
- implement support for per TX queue H/W shaping

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core:
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.
Netfilter:
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
improvements.
BPF:
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.
Protocols:
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
close, the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
device neigh lists.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling:
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
phase
Drivers:
- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
introspection.
- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- mlx5:
- a large refactor to implement support for cross E-Switch
scheduling
- refactor H/W conter management to let it scale better
- H/W GRO cleanups
