* bpfilter: remove bpfilterQuentin Deslandes2024-01-041-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bpfilter was supposed to convert iptables filtering rules into BPF programs on the fly, from the kernel, through a usermode helper. The base code for the UMH was introduced in 2018, and couple of attempts (2, 3) tried to introduce the BPF program generate features but were abandoned. bpfilter now sits in a kernel tree unused and unusable, occasionally causing confusion amongst Linux users (4, 5). As bpfilter is now developed in a dedicated repository on GitHub (6), it was suggested a couple of times this year (LSFMM/BPF 2023, LPC 2023) to remove the deprecated kernel part of the project. This is the purpose of this patch.

* net: add skb_segment kunit testWillem de Bruijn2023-10-111-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add unit testing for skb segment. This function is exercised by many different code paths, such as GSO_PARTIAL or GSO_BY_FRAGS, linear (with or without head_frag), frags or frag_list skbs, etc. It is infeasible to manually run tests that cover all code paths when making changes. The long and complex function also makes it hard to establish through analysis alone that a patch has no unintended side-effects. Add code coverage through kunit regression testing. Introduce kunit infrastructure for tests under net/core, and add this first test. This first skb_segment test exercises a simple case: a linear skb. Follow-on patches will parametrize the test and add more variants.

* bpf: Add fd-based tcx multi-prog infra with link supportDaniel Borkmann2023-07-191-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This work refactors and adds a lightweight extension ("tcx") to the tc BPF ingress and egress data path side for allowing BPF program management based on fds via bpf() syscall through the newly added generic multi-prog API. The main goal behind this work which we also presented at LPC [0] last year and a recent update at LSF/MM/BPF this year [3] is to support long-awaited BPF link functionality for tc BPF programs, which allows for a model of safe ownership and program detachment. Given the rise in tc BPF users in cloud native environments, this becomes necessary to avoid hard to debug incidents either through stale leftover programs or 3rd party applications accidentally stepping on each others toes. As a recap, a BPF link represents the attachment of a BPF program to a BPF hook point. The BPF link holds a single reference to keep BPF program alive. Moreover, hook points do not reference a BPF link, only the application's fd or pinning does. A BPF link holds meta-data specific to attachment and implements operations for link creation, (atomic) BPF program update, detachment and introspection. The motivation for BPF links for tc BPF programs is multi-fold, for example: - From Meta: "It's especially important for applications that are deployed fleet-wide and that don't "control" hosts they are deployed to. If such application crashes and no one notices and does anything about that, BPF program will keep running draining resources or even just, say, dropping packets. We at FB had outages due to such permanent BPF attachment semantics. With fd-based BPF link we are getting a framework, which allows safe, auto-detachable behavior by default, unless application explicitly opts in by pinning the BPF link." [1] - From Cilium-side the tc BPF programs we attach to host-facing veth devices and phys devices build the core datapath for Kubernetes Pods, and they implement forwarding, load-balancing, policy, EDT-management, etc, within BPF. Currently there is no concept of 'safe' ownership, e.g. we've recently experienced hard-to-debug issues in a user's staging environment where another Kubernetes application using tc BPF attached to the same prio/handle of cls_bpf, accidentally wiping all Cilium-based BPF programs from underneath it. The goal is to establish a clear/safe ownership model via links which cannot accidentally be overridden. [0,2] BPF links for tc can co-exist with non-link attachments, and the semantics are in line also with XDP links: BPF links cannot replace other BPF links, BPF links cannot replace non-BPF links, non-BPF links cannot replace BPF links and lastly only non-BPF links can replace non-BPF links. In case of Cilium, this would solve mentioned issue of safe ownership model as 3rd party applications would not be able to accidentally wipe Cilium programs, even if they are not BPF link aware. Earlier attempts [4] have tried to integrate BPF links into core tc machinery to solve cls_bpf, which has been intrusive to the generic tc kernel API with extensions only specific to cls_bpf and suboptimal/complex since cls_bpf could be wiped from the qdisc also. Locking a tc BPF program in place this way, is getting into layering hacks given the two object models are vastly different. We instead implemented the tcx (tc 'express') layer which is an fd-based tc BPF attach API, so that the BPF link implementation blends in naturally similar to other link types which are fd-based and without the need for changing core tc internal APIs. BPF programs for tc can then be successively migrated from classic cls_bpf to the new tc BPF link without needing to change the program's source code, just the BPF loader mechanics for attaching is sufficient. For the current tc framework, there is no change in behavior with this change and neither does this change touch on tc core kernel APIs. The gist of this patch is that the ingress and egress hook have a lightweight, qdisc-less extension for BPF to attach its tc BPF programs, in other words, a minimal entry point for tc BPF. The name tcx has been suggested from discussion of earlier revisions of this work as a good fit, and to more easily differ between the classic cls_bpf attachment and the fd-based one. For the ingress and egress tcx points, the device holds a cache-friendly array with program pointers which is separated from control plane (slow-path) data. Earlier versions of this work used priority to determine ordering and expression of dependencies similar as with classic tc, but it was challenged that for something more future-proof a better user experience is required. Hence this resulted in the design and development of the generic attach/detach/query API for multi-progs. See prior patch with its discussion on the API design. tcx is the first user and later we plan to integrate also others, for example, one candidate is multi-prog support for XDP which would benefit and have the same 'look and feel' from API perspective. The goal with tcx is to have maximum compatibility to existing tc BPF programs, so they don't need to be rewritten specifically. Compatibility to call into classic tcf_classify() is also provided in order to allow successive migration or both to cleanly co-exist where needed given its all one logical tc layer and the tcx plus classic tc cls/act build one logical overall processing pipeline. tcx supports the simplified return codes TCX_NEXT which is non-terminating (go to next program) and terminating ones with TCX_PASS, TCX_DROP, TCX_REDIRECT. The fd-based API is behind a static key, so that when unused the code is also not entered. The struct tcx_entry's program array is currently static, but could be made dynamic if necessary at a point in future. The a/b pair swap design has been chosen so that for detachment there are no allocations which otherwise could fail. The work has been tested with tc-testing selftest suite which all passes, as well as the tc BPF tests from the BPF CI, and also with Cilium's L4LB. Thanks also to Nikolay Aleksandrov and Martin Lau for in-depth early reviews of this work.

* net/core: Enable socket busy polling on -RTKurt Kanzenbach2023-05-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Busy polling is currently not allowed on PREEMPT_RT, because it disables preemption while invoking the NAPI callback. It is not possible to acquire sleeping locks with disabled preemption. For details see commit 20ab39d13e2e ("net/core: disable NET_RX_BUSY_POLL on PREEMPT_RT"). However, strict cyclic and/or low latency network applications may prefer busy polling e.g., using AF_XDP instead of interrupt driven communication. The preempt_disable() is used in order to prevent the poll_owner and NAPI owner to be preempted while owning the resource to ensure progress. Netpoll performs busy polling in order to acquire the lock. NAPI is locked by setting the NAPIF_STATE_SCHED flag. There is no busy polling if the flag is set and the "owner" is preempted. Worst case is that the task owning NAPI gets preempted and NAPI processing stalls. This is can be prevented by properly prioritising the tasks within the system. Allow RX_BUSY_POLL on PREEMPT_RT if NETPOLL is disabled. Don't disable preemption on PREEMPT_RT within the busy poll loop. Tested on x86 hardware with v6.1-RT and v6.3-RT on Intel i225 (igc) with AF_XDP/ZC sockets configured to run in busy polling mode.

* net/handshake: Create a NETLINK service for handling handshake requestsChuck Lever2023-04-191-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a kernel consumer needs a transport layer security session, it first needs a handshake to negotiate and establish a session. This negotiation can be done in user space via one of the several existing library implementations, or it can be done in the kernel. No in-kernel handshake implementations yet exist. In their absence, we add a netlink service that can: a. Notify a user space daemon that a handshake is needed. b. Once notified, the daemon calls the kernel back via this netlink service to get the handshake parameters, including an open socket on which to establish the session. c. Once the handshake is complete, the daemon reports the session status and other information via a second netlink operation. This operation marks that it is safe for the kernel to use the open socket and the security session established there. The notification service uses a multicast group. Each handshake mechanism (eg, tlshd) adopts its own group number so that the handshake services are completely independent of one another. The kernel can then tell via netlink_has_listeners() whether a handshake service is active and prepared to handle a handshake request. A new netlink operation, ACCEPT, acts like accept(2) in that it instantiates a file descriptor in the user space daemon's fd table. If this operation is successful, the reply carries the fd number, which can be treated as an open and ready file descriptor. While user space is performing the handshake, the kernel keeps its muddy paws off the open socket. A second new netlink operation, DONE, indicates that the user space daemon is finished with the socket and it is safe for the kernel to use again. The operation also indicates whether a session was established successfully. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
* net: introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGSEric Dumazet2023-03-271-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, MAX_SKB_FRAGS value is 17. For standard tcp sendmsg() traffic, no big deal because tcp_sendmsg() attempts order-3 allocations, stuffing 32768 bytes per frag. But with zero copy, we use order-0 pages. For BIG TCP to show its full potential, we add a config option to be able to fit up to 45 segments per skb. This is also needed for BIG TCP rx zerocopy, as zerocopy currently does not support skbs with frag list. We have used MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45 value for years at Google before we deployed 4K MTU, with no adverse effect, other than a recent issue in mlx4, fixed in commit 26782aad00cc ("net/mlx4: MLX4_TX_BOUNCE_BUFFER_SIZE depends on MAX_SKB_FRAGS") Back then, goal was to be able to receive full size (64KB) GRO packets without the frag_list overhead. Note that /proc/sys/net/core/max_skb_frags can also be used to limit the number of fragments TCP can use in tx packets. By default we keep the old/legacy value of 17 until we get more coverage for the updated values. Sizes of struct skb_shared_info on 64bit arches MAX_SKB_FRAGS | sizeof(struct skb_shared_info): ============================================== 17 320 21 320+64 = 384 25 320+128 = 448 29 320+192 = 512 33 320+256 = 576 37 320+320 = 640 41 320+384 = 704 45 320+448 = 768 This inflation might cause problems for drivers assuming they could pack both the incoming packet (for MTU=1500) and skb_shared_info in half a page, using build_skb(). v3: fix build error when CONFIG_NET=n v2: fix two build errors assuming MAX_SKB_FRAGS was "unsigned long" Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reviewed-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <razor@blackwall.org> Reviewed-by: Jason Xing <kerneljasonxing@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230323162842.1935061-1-eric.dumazet@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

We can't acquire sleeping locks with disabled preemption which would be required while __napi_poll() invokes the callback of the driver. A threaded interrupt performing the NAPI-poll can be preempted on PREEMPT_RT. A RT thread on another CPU may observe NAPIF_STATE_SCHED bit set and busy-spin until it is cleared or its spin time runs out. Given it is the task with the highest priority it will never observe the NEED_RESCHED bit set. In this case the time is better spent by simply sleeping.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether. As most PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining networks tend to use standalone routers. These almost certainly run Linux, but not a modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack. NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the www.linuxwimax.org site had already shut down earlier. WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks ("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the only driver using the kernel's wimax stack. Move all files into drivers/staging/wimax, including the uapi header files and documentation, to make it easier to remove it when it gets to that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the basic packet trap infrastructure that allows device drivers to register their supported packet traps and trap groups with devlink. Each driver is expected to provide basic information about each supported trap, such as name and ID, but also the supported metadata types that will accompany each packet trapped via the trap. The currently supported metadata type is just the input port, but more will be added in the future. For example, output port and traffic class. Trap groups allow users to set the action of all member traps. In addition, users can retrieve per-group statistics in case per-trap statistics are too narrow. In the future, the trap group object can be extended with more attributes, such as policer settings which will limit the amount of traffic generated by member traps towards the CPU. Beside registering their packet traps with devlink, drivers are also expected to report trapped packets to devlink along with relevant metadata. devlink will maintain packets and bytes statistics for each packet trap and will potentially report the trapped packet with its metadata to user space via drop monitor netlink channel. The interface towards the drivers is simple and allows devlink to set the action of the trap. Currently, only two actions are supported: 'trap' and 'drop'. When set to 'trap', the device is expected to provide the sole copy of the packet to the driver which will pass it to devlink. When set to 'drop', the device is expected to drop the packet and not send a copy to the driver. In the future, more actions can be added, such as 'mirror'.

* net: ipv4: move tcp_fastopen server side code to SipHash libraryArd Biesheuvel2019-06-171-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using a bare block cipher in non-crypto code is almost always a bad idea, not only for security reasons (and we've seen some examples of this in the kernel in the past), but also for performance reasons. In the TCP fastopen case, we call into the bare AES block cipher one or two times (depending on whether the connection is IPv4 or IPv6). On most systems, this results in a call chain such as crypto_cipher_encrypt_one(ctx, dst, src) crypto_cipher_crt(tfm)->cit_encrypt_one(crypto_cipher_tfm(tfm), ...); aesni_encrypt kernel_fpu_begin(); aesni_enc(ctx, dst, src); // asm routine kernel_fpu_end(); It is highly unlikely that the use of special AES instructions has a benefit in this case, especially since we are doing the above twice for IPv6 connections, instead of using a transform which can process the entire input in one go. We could switch to the cbcmac(aes) shash, which would at least get rid of the duplicated overhead in *some* cases (i.e., today, only arm64 has an accelerated implementation of cbcmac(aes), while x86 will end up using the generic cbcmac template wrapping the AES-NI cipher, which basically ends up doing exactly the above). However, in the given context, it makes more sense to use a light-weight MAC algorithm that is more suitable for the purpose at hand, such as SipHash. Since the output size of SipHash already matches our chosen value for TCP_FASTOPEN_COOKIE_SIZE, and given that it accepts arbitrary input sizes, this greatly simplifies the code as well. NOTE: Server farms backing a single server IP for load balancing purposes and sharing a single fastopen key will be adversely affected by this change unless all systems in the pool receive their kernel upgrades at the same time.

* sk_buff: add skb extension infrastructureFlorian Westphal2018-12-191-0/+3

The third (planned future) user is Multipath TCP which is still out-of-tree. MPTCP needs to map logical mptcp sequence numbers to the tcp sequence numbers used by individual subflows. This DSS mapping is read/written from tcp option space on receive and written to tcp option space on transmitted tcp packets that are part of and MPTCP connection. Extending skb_shared_info or adding a private data field to skb fclones doesn't work for incoming skb, so a different DSS propagation method would be required for the receive side. mptcp has same requirements as secpath/bridge netfilter: 1. extension memory is released when the sk_buff is free'd. 2. data is shared after cloning an skb (clone inherits extension) 3. adding extension to an skb will COW the extension buffer if needed. The "MPTCP upstreaming" effort adds SKB_EXT_MPTCP extension to store the mapping for tx and rx processing. Two new members are added to sk_buff: 1. 'active_extensions' byte (filling a hole), telling which extensions are available for this skb. This has two purposes. a) avoids the need to initialize the pointer. b) allows to "delete" an extension by clearing its bit value in ->active_extensions. While it would be possible to store the active_extensions byte in the extension struct instead of sk_buff, there is one problem with this: When an extension has to be disabled, we can always clear the bit in skb->active_extensions. But in case it would be stored in the extension buffer itself, we might have to COW it first, if we are dealing with a cloned skb. On kmalloc failure we would be unable to turn an extension off. 2. extension pointer, located at the end of the sk_buff. If the active_extensions byte is 0, the pointer is undefined, it is not initialized on skb allocation. This adds extra code to skb clone and free paths (to deal with refcount/free of extension area) but this replaces similar code that manages skb->nf_bridge and skb->sp structs in the followup patches of the series. It is possible to add support for extensions that are not preseved on clones/copies. To do this, it would be needed to define a bitmask of all extensions that need copy/cow semantics, and change __skb_ext_copy() to check ->active_extensions & SKB_EXT_PRESERVE_ON_CLONE, then just set ->active_extensions to 0 on the new clone. This isn't done here because all extensions that get added here need the copy/cow semantics. v2: Allocate entire extension space using kmem_cache. Upside is that this allows better tracking of used memory, downside is that we will allocate more space than strictly needed in most cases (its unlikely that all extensions are active/needed at same time for same skb). The allocated memory (except the small extension header) is not cleared, so no additonal overhead aside from memory usage. Avoid atomic_dec_and_test operation on skb_ext_put() by using similar trick as kfree_skbmem() does with fclone_ref: If recount is 1, there is no concurrent user and we can free right away.

* bpf, sockmap: convert to generic sk_msg interfaceDaniel Borkmann2018-10-151-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a generic sk_msg layer, and convert current sockmap and later kTLS over to make use of it. While sk_buff handles network packet representation from netdevice up to socket, sk_msg handles data representation from application to socket layer. This means that sk_msg framework spans across ULP users in the kernel, and enables features such as introspection or filtering of data with the help of BPF programs that operate on this data structure. Latter becomes in particular useful for kTLS where data encryption is deferred into the kernel, and as such enabling the kernel to perform L7 introspection and policy based on BPF for TLS connections where the record is being encrypted after BPF has run and came to a verdict. In order to get there, first step is to transform open coding of scatter-gather list handling into a common core framework that subsystems can use. The code itself has been split and refactored into three bigger pieces: i) the generic sk_msg API which deals with managing the scatter gather ring, providing helpers for walking and mangling, transferring application data from user space into it, and preparing it for BPF pre/post-processing, ii) the plain sock map itself where sockets can be attached to or detached from; these bits are independent of i) which can now be used also without sock map, and iii) the integration with plain TCP as one protocol to be used for processing L7 application data (later this could e.g. also be extended to other protocols like UDP). The semantics are the same with the old sock map code and therefore no change of user facing behavior or APIs. While pursuing this work it also helped finding a number of bugs in the old sockmap code that we've fixed already in earlier commits. The test_sockmap kselftest suite passes through fine as well.

Notice that _binary_net_bpfilter_bpfilter_umh_start - end is placed into .init.rodata section, so it's freed as soon as __init function of bpfilter.ko is finished. As part of __init the bpfilter.ko does first request/reply action via two unix pipe provided by fork_usermode_blob() helper to make sure that umh is healthy. If not it will kill it via pid. Later bpfilter_process_sockopt() will be called from bpfilter hooks in get/setsockopt() to pass iptable commands into umh via bpfilter.ko If admin does 'rmmod bpfilter' the __exit code bpfilter.ko will kill umh as well.
