xdp: allow attaching already registered memory model to xdp_rxq_info

2026-03-25T10:08:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit f65966fe0178c06065d354c22fb456fc4370b527 ] One may need to register memory model separately from xdp_rxq_info. One simple example may be XDP test run code, but in general, it might be useful when memory model registering is managed by one layer and then XDP RxQ info by a different one. Allow such scenarios by adding a simple helper which "attaches" already registered memory model to the desired xdp_rxq_info. As this is mostly needed for Page Pool, add a special function to do that for a &page_pool pointer.

bpf: Clear pfmemalloc flag when freeing all fragments

2025-11-13T20:34:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8f12d1137c2382c80aada8e05d7cc650cd4e403c ] It is possible for bpf_xdp_adjust_tail() to free all fragments. The kfunc currently clears the XDP_FLAGS_HAS_FRAGS bit, but not XDP_FLAGS_FRAGS_PF_MEMALLOC. So far, this has not caused a issue when building sk_buff from xdp_buff since all readers of xdp_buff->flags use the flag only when there are fragments. Clear the XDP_FLAGS_FRAGS_PF_MEMALLOC bit as well to make the flags correct.

xdp: Add VLAN tag hint

2023-12-14T00:16:40+00:00

Implement functionality that enables drivers to expose VLAN tag to XDP code.

ice: Support RX hash XDP hint

2023-12-14T00:16:40+00:00

RX hash XDP hint requests both hash value and type. Type is XDP-specific, so we need a separate way to map these values to the hardware ptypes, so create a lookup table. Instead of creating a new long list, reuse contents of ice_decode_rx_desc_ptype[] through preprocessor. Current hash type enum does not contain ICMP packet type, but ice devices support it, so also add a new type into core code. Then use previously refactored code and create a function that allows XDP code to read RX hash.

net, xdp: Allow metadata > 32

2023-12-11T15:09:36+00:00

32 bytes may be not enough for some custom metadata. Relax the restriction, allow metadata larger than 32 bytes and make __skb_metadata_differs() work with bigger lengths. Now size of metadata is only limited by the fact it is stored as u8 in skb_shared_info, so maximum possible value is 255. Size still has to be aligned to 4, so the actual upper limit becomes 252. Most driver implementations will offer less, none can offer more. Other important conditions, such as having enough space for xdp_frame building, are already checked in bpf_xdp_adjust_meta().

bpf: expose information about supported xdp metadata kfunc

2023-09-15T18:26:58+00:00

Add new xdp-rx-metadata-features member to netdev netlink which exports a bitmask of supported kfuncs. Most of the patch is autogenerated (headers), the only relevant part is netdev.yaml and the changes in netdev-genl.c to marshal into netlink. Example output on veth: $ ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1 # ifndex == 12 $ ./tools/net/ynl/samples/netdev 12 Select ifc ($ifindex; or 0 = dump; or -2 ntf check): 12 veth1[12] xdp-features (23): basic redirect rx-sg xdp-rx-metadata-features (3): timestamp hash xdp-zc-max-segs=0 Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Cc: Willem de Bruijn Signed-off-by: Stanislav Fomichev Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230913171350.369987-3-sdf@google.com Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau

bpf: make it easier to add new metadata kfunc

2023-09-15T18:26:58+00:00

No functional changes. Instead of having hand-crafted code in bpf_dev_bound_resolve_kfunc, move kfunc <> xmo handler relationship into XDP_METADATA_KFUNC_xxx. This way, any time new kfunc is added, we don't have to touch bpf_dev_bound_resolve_kfunc. Also document XDP_METADATA_KFUNC_xxx arguments since we now have more than two and it might be confusing what is what.

net: invert the netdevice.h vs xdp.h dependency

2023-08-03T15:38:07+00:00

xdp.h is far more specific and is included in only 67 other files vs netdevice.h's 1538 include sites. Make xdp.h include netdevice.h, instead of the other way around. This decreases the incremental allmodconfig builds size when xdp.h is touched from 5947 to 662 objects. Move bpf_prog_run_xdp() to xdp.h, seems appropriate and filter.h is a mega-header in its own right so it's nice to avoid xdp.h getting included there as well. The only unfortunate part is that the typedef for xdp_features_t has to move to netdevice.h, since its embedded in struct netdevice.

The main changes are: 1) Rework BPF verifier log behavior and implement it as a rotating log by default with the option to retain old-style fixed log behavior, from Andrii Nakryiko. 2) Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap params, from Christian Ehrig. 3) Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton, from Alexei Starovoitov. 4) Optimize hashmap lookups when key size is multiple of 4, from Anton Protopopov. 5) Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr tasks to be stored in BPF maps, from David Vernet. 6) Add support for stashing local BPF kptr into a map value via bpf_kptr_xchg(). This is useful e.g. for rbtree node creation for new cgroups, from Dave Marchevsky. 7) Fix BTF handling of is_int_ptr to skip modifiers to work around tracing issues where a program cannot be attached, from Feng Zhou. 8) Migrate a big portion of test_verifier unit tests over to test_progs -a verifier_* via inline asm to ease {read,debug}ability, from Eduard Zingerman. 9) Several updates to the instruction-set.rst documentation which is subject to future IETF standardization (https://lwn.net/Articles/926882/), from Dave Thaler. 10) Fix BPF verifier in the __reg_bound_offset's 64->32 tnum sub-register known bits information propagation, from Daniel Borkmann. 11) Add skb bitfield compaction work related to BPF with the overall goal to make more of the sk_buff bits optional, from Jakub Kicinski. 12) BPF selftest cleanups for build id extraction which stand on its own from the upcoming integration work of build id into struct file object, from Jiri Olsa. 13) Add fixes and optimizations for xsk descriptor validation and several selftest improvements for xsk sockets, from Kal Conley. 14) Add BPF links for struct_ops and enable switching implementations of BPF TCP cong-ctls under a given name by replacing backing struct_ops map, from Kui-Feng Lee. 15) Remove a misleading BPF verifier env->bypass_spec_v1 check on variable offset stack read as earlier Spectre checks cover this, from Luis Gerhorst. 16) Fix issues in copy_from_user_nofault() for BPF and other tracers to resemble copy_from_user_nmi() from safety PoV, from Florian Lehner and Alexei Starovoitov. 17) Add --json-summary option to test_progs in order for CI tooling to ease parsing of test results, from Manu Bretelle. 18) Batch of improvements and refactoring to prep for upcoming bpf_local_storage conversion to bpf_mem_cache_{alloc,free} allocator, from Martin KaFai Lau. 19) Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations, from Quentin Monnet. 20) Fix attaching fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm to modules by extracting the module name from BTF of the target and searching kallsyms of the correct module, from Viktor Malik. 21) Improve BPF verifier handling of ' ' to better detect whether in particular jmp32 branches are taken, from Yonghong Song. 22) Allow BPF TCP cong-ctls to write app_limited of struct tcp_sock. A built-in cc or one from a kernel module is already able to write to app_limited, from Yixin Shen.
