The following test case causes a NULL pointer dereference in cls_bpf:

  FOO="1,6 0 0 4294967295,"
  tc filter add dev foo parent 1: bpf bytecode "$FOO" flowid 1:1 action ok
  tc filter replace dev foo parent 1: pref 49152 handle 0x1 \
            bpf bytecode "$FOO" flowid 1:1 action drop

The problem is that commit 1f947bf151e9 ("net: sched: rcu'ify cls_bpf")
accidentally swapped the arguments of list_replace_rcu(), the old
element needs to be the first argument and the new element the second.

<content type='text'>
eBPF programs attached to ingress and egress qdiscs see inconsistent skb-&gt;data.
For ingress L2 header is already pulled, whereas for egress it's present.
This is known to program writers which are currently forced to use
BPF_LL_OFF workaround.
Since programs don't change skb internal pointers it is safe to do
pull/push right around invocation of the program and earlier taps and
later pt-&gt;func() will not be affected.
Multiple taps via packet_rcv(), tpacket_rcv() are doing the same trick
around run_filter/BPF_PROG_RUN even if skb_shared.

This fix finally allows programs to use optimized LD_ABS/IND instructions
without BPF_LL_OFF for higher performance.
tc ingress + cls_bpf + samples/bpf/tcbpf1_kern.o
       w/o JIT   w/JIT
before  20.5     23.6 Mpps
after   21.8     26.6 Mpps

Old programs with BPF_LL_OFF will still work as-is.

We can now undo most of the earlier workaround commit:

<id>urn:sha1:a166151cbe33b53221c24259e4a7201064b3ba79</id>
<content type='text'>
For the short-term solution, lets fix bpf helper functions to use
skb-&gt;mac_header relative offsets instead of skb-&gt;data in order to
get the same eBPF programs with cls_bpf and act_bpf work on ingress
and egress qdisc path. We need to ensure that mac_header is set
before calling into programs. This is effectively the first option
from below referenced discussion.

More long term solution for LD_ABS|LD_IND instructions will be more
intrusive but also more beneficial than this, and implemented later
as it's too risky at this point in time.

I.e., we plan to look into the option of moving skb_pull() out of
eth_type_trans() and into netif_receive_skb() as has been suggested
as second option. Meanwhile, this solution ensures ingress can be
used with eBPF, too, and that we won't run into ABI troubles later.
For dealing with negative offsets inside eBPF helper functions,
we've implemented bpf_skb_clone_unwritable() to test for unwriteable
headers.

<title>cls_bpf: do eBPF invocation under non-bh RCU lock variant for maps</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, it is possible in cls_bpf to access eBPF maps only under
rcu_read_lock_bh() variants: while on ingress side, that is, handle_ing(),
the classifier would be called from __netif_receive_skb_core() under
rcu_read_lock(); on egress side, however, it's rcu_read_lock_bh() via
__dev_queue_xmit().

This rcu/rcu_bh mix doesn't work together with eBPF maps as they require
soley to be called under rcu_read_lock(). eBPF maps could also be shared
among various other eBPF programs (possibly even with other eBPF program
types, f.e. tracing) and user space processes, so any context is assumed.

Therefore, a possible fix for cls_bpf is to wrap/nest eBPF program
invocation under non-bh RCU lock variant.

<title>net_sched: destroy proto tp when all filters are gone</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1e052be69d045c8d0f82ff1116fd3e5a79661745</id>
<content type='text'>
Kernel automatically creates a tp for each
(kind, protocol, priority) tuple, which has handle 0,
when we add a new filter, but it still is left there
after we remove our own, unless we don't specify the
handle (literally means all the filters under
the tuple). For example this one is left:

  # tc filter show dev eth0
  filter parent 8001: protocol arp pref 49152 basic

The user-space is hard to clean up these for kernel
because filters like u32 are organized in a complex way.
So kernel is responsible to remove it after all filters
are gone.  Each type of filter has its own way to
store the filters, so each type has to provide its
way to check if all filters are gone.

<id>urn:sha1:e2e9b6541dd4b31848079da80fe2253daaafb549</id>
<content type='text'>
This work extends the "classic" BPF programmable tc classifier by
extending its scope also to native eBPF code!

This allows for user space to implement own custom, 'safe' C like
classifiers (or whatever other frontend language LLVM et al may
provide in future), that can then be compiled with the LLVM eBPF
backend to an eBPF elf file. The result of this can be loaded into
the kernel via iproute2's tc. In the kernel, they can be JITed on
major archs and thus run in native performance.

Simple, minimal toy example to demonstrate the workflow:

  #include &lt;linux/ip.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/if_ether.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/bpf.h&gt;

  #include "tc_bpf_api.h"

  __section("classify")
  int cls_main(struct sk_buff *skb)
  {
    return (0x800 &lt;&lt; 16) | load_byte(skb, ETH_HLEN + __builtin_offsetof(struct iphdr, tos));
  }

  char __license[] __section("license") = "GPL";

The classifier can then be compiled into eBPF opcodes and loaded
via tc, for example:

  clang -O2 -emit-llvm -c cls.c -o - | llc -march=bpf -filetype=obj -o cls.o
  tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf cls.o [...]

As it has been demonstrated, the scope can even reach up to a fully
fledged flow dissector (similarly as in samples/bpf/sockex2_kern.c).

For tc, maps are allowed to be used, but from kernel context only,
in other words, eBPF code can keep state across filter invocations.
In future, we perhaps may reattach from a different application to
those maps e.g., to read out collected statistics/state.

Similarly as in socket filters, we may extend functionality for eBPF
classifiers over time depending on the use cases. For that purpose,
cls_bpf programs are using BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS program type, so
we can allow additional functions/accessors (e.g. an ABI compatible
offset translation to skb fields/metadata). For an initial cls_bpf
support, we allow the same set of helper functions as eBPF socket
filters, but we could diverge at some point in time w/o problem.

I was wondering whether cls_bpf and act_bpf could share C programs,
I can imagine that at some point, we introduce i) further common
handlers for both (or even beyond their scope), and/or if truly needed
ii) some restricted function space for each of them. Both can be
abstracted easily through struct bpf_verifier_ops in future.

The context of cls_bpf versus act_bpf is slightly different though:
a cls_bpf program will return a specific classid whereas act_bpf a
drop/non-drop return code, latter may also in future mangle skbs.
That said, we can surely have a "classify" and "action" section in
a single object file, or considered mentioned constraint add a
possibility of a shared section.

The workflow for getting native eBPF running from tc [1] is as
follows: for f_bpf, I've added a slightly modified ELF parser code
from Alexei's kernel sample, which reads out the LLVM compiled
object, sets up maps (and dynamically fixes up map fds) if any, and
loads the eBPF instructions all centrally through the bpf syscall.

The resulting fd from the loaded program itself is being passed down
to cls_bpf, which looks up struct bpf_prog from the fd store, and
holds reference, so that it stays available also after tc program
lifetime. On tc filter destruction, it will then drop its reference.

Moreover, I've also added the optional possibility to annotate an
eBPF filter with a name (e.g. path to object file, or something
else if preferred) so that when tc dumps currently installed filters,
some more context can be given to an admin for a given instance (as
opposed to just the file descriptor number).

Last but not least, bpf_prog_get() and bpf_prog_put() needed to be
exported, so that eBPF can be used from cls_bpf built as a module.
Thanks to 60a3b2253c41 ("net: bpf: make eBPF interpreter images
read-only") I think this is of no concern since anything wanting to
alter eBPF opcode after verification stage would crash the kernel.

When creating a bpf classifier in tc with priority collisions and
invoking automatic unique handle assignment, cls_bpf_grab_new_handle()
will return a wrong handle id which in fact is non-unique. Usually
altering of specific filters is being addressed over major id, but
in case of collisions we result in a filter chain, where handle ids
address individual cls_bpf_progs inside the classifier.

Issue is, in cls_bpf_grab_new_handle() we probe for head-&gt;hgen handle
in cls_bpf_get() and in case we found a free handle, we're supposed
to use exactly head-&gt;hgen. In case of insufficient numbers of handles,
we bail out later as handle id 0 is not allowed.

<content type='text'>
In cls_bpf_modify_existing(), we read out the number of filter blocks,
do some sanity checks, allocate a block on that size, and copy over the
BPF instruction blob from user space, then pass everything through the
classic BPF checker prior to installation of the classifier.

We should reject mismatches here, there are 2 scenarios: the number of
filter blocks could be smaller than the provided instruction blob, so
we do a partial copy of the BPF program, and thus the instructions will
either be rejected from the verifier or a valid BPF program will be run;
in the other case, we'll end up copying more than we're supposed to,
and most likely the trailing garbage will be rejected by the verifier
as well (i.e. we need to fit instruction pattern, ret {A,K} needs to be
last instruction, load/stores must be correct, etc); in case not, we
would leak memory when dumping back instruction patterns. The code should
have only used nla_len() as Dave noted to avoid this from the beginning.
Anyway, lets fix it by rejecting such load attempts.
