[ Upstream commit 2caa6b88e0ba0231fb4ff0ba8e73cedd5fb81fc8 ]

In the past %pK was preferable to %p as it would not leak raw pointer
values into the kernel log.
Since commit ad67b74d2469 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p")
the regular %p has been improved to avoid this issue.
Furthermore, restricted pointers ("%pK") were never meant to be used
through printk(). They can still unintentionally leak raw pointers or
acquire sleeping locks in atomic contexts.

Switch to the regular pointer formatting which is safer and
easier to reason about.

<title>xdp: Reset bpf_redirect_info before running a xdp's BPF prog.</title>

Ricardo reported a KASAN discovered use after free in v6.6-stable.

The syzbot starts a BPF program via xdp_test_run_batch() which assigns
ri-&gt;tgt_value via dev_hash_map_redirect() and the return code isn't
XDP_REDIRECT it looks like nonsense. So the output in
bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action() appears once.
Then the TUN driver runs another BPF program (on the same CPU) which
returns XDP_REDIRECT without setting ri-&gt;tgt_value first. It invokes
bpf_trace_printk() to print four characters and obtain the required
return value. This is enough to get xdp_do_redirect() invoked which
then accesses the pointer in tgt_value which might have been already
deallocated.

This problem does not affect upstream because since commit
	401cb7dae8130 ("net: Reference bpf_redirect_info via task_struct on PREEMPT_RT.")

the per-CPU variable is referenced via task's task_struct and exists on
the stack during NAPI callback. Therefore it is cleared once before the
first invocation and remains valid within the RCU section of the NAPI
callback.

Instead of performing the huge backport of the commit (plus its fix ups)
here is an alternative version which only resets the variable in
question prior invoking the BPF program.

<title>bpf: Mark bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}() helpers with notrace correctly</title>

<id>urn:sha1:23278c845a0b3eb9bdd0f8ecce724989fcc15cf5</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 178c54666f9c4d2f49f2ea661d0c11b52f0ed190 ]

Currently tracing is supposed not to allow for bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}()
helper calls. This is to prevent deadlock for the following cases:
  - there is a prog (prog-A) calling bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
  - there is a tracing program (prog-B), e.g., fentry, attached
    to bpf_spin_lock() and/or bpf_spin_unlock().
  - prog-B calls bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
For such a case, when prog-A calls bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}(),
a deadlock will happen.

The related source codes are below in kernel/bpf/helpers.c:
  notrace BPF_CALL_1(bpf_spin_lock, struct bpf_spin_lock *, lock)
  notrace BPF_CALL_1(bpf_spin_unlock, struct bpf_spin_lock *, lock)
notrace is supposed to prevent fentry prog from attaching to
bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().

But actually this is not the case and fentry prog can successfully
attached to bpf_spin_lock(). Siddharth Chintamaneni reported
the issue in [1]. The following is the macro definition for
above BPF_CALL_1:
  #define BPF_CALL_x(x, name, ...)                                               \
        static __always_inline                                                 \
        u64 ____##name(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__));   \
        typedef u64 (*btf_##name)(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__)); \
        u64 name(__BPF_REG(x, __BPF_DECL_REGS, __BPF_N, __VA_ARGS__));         \
        u64 name(__BPF_REG(x, __BPF_DECL_REGS, __BPF_N, __VA_ARGS__))          \
        {                                                                      \
                return ((btf_##name)____##name)(__BPF_MAP(x,__BPF_CAST,__BPF_N,__VA_ARGS__));\
        }                                                                      \
        static __always_inline                                                 \
        u64 ____##name(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__))

  #define BPF_CALL_1(name, ...)   BPF_CALL_x(1, name, __VA_ARGS__)

The notrace attribute is actually applied to the static always_inline function
____bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}(). The actual callback function
bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}() is not marked with notrace, hence
allowing fentry prog to attach to two helpers, and this
may cause the above mentioned deadlock. Siddharth Chintamaneni
actually has a reproducer in [2].

To fix the issue, a new macro NOTRACE_BPF_CALL_1 is introduced which
will add notrace attribute to the original function instead of
the hidden always_inline function and this fixed the problem.

This patch changes sk_getsockopt() to take the sockptr_t argument
such that it can be used by bpf_getsockopt(SOL_SOCKET) in a
latter patch.

security_socket_getpeersec_stream() is not changed.  It stays
with the __user ptr (optval.user and optlen.user) to avoid changes
to other security hooks.  bpf_getsockopt(SOL_SOCKET) also does not
support SO_PEERSEC.

<title>bpf: Introduce BPF nospec instruction for mitigating Spectre v4</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bea9e2fd180892eba2574711b05b794f1d0e7b73</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f5e81d1117501546b7be050c5fbafa6efd2c722c ]

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.

Based on the discussion in [0], update the bpf_redirect_neigh() helper to
accept an optional parameter specifying the nexthop information. This makes
it possible to combine bpf_fib_lookup() and bpf_redirect_neigh() without
incurring a duplicate FIB lookup - since the FIB lookup helper will return
the nexthop information even if no neighbour is present, this can simply
be passed on to bpf_redirect_neigh() if bpf_fib_lookup() returns
BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NO_NEIGH. Thus fix &amp; extend it before helper API is frozen.
