mainlining shenanigans
cc52d9140a
While testing Cilium with /unreleased/ Linus' tree under BPF-based NodePort
implementation, I noticed a strange BPF SNAT engine behavior from time to
time. In some cases it would do the correct SNAT/DNAT service translation,
but at a random point in time it would just stop and perform an unexpected
translation after SYN, SYN/ACK and stack would send a RST back. While initially
assuming that there is some sort of a race condition in BPF code, adding
trace_printk()s for debugging purposes at some point seemed to have resolved
the issue auto-magically.
Digging deeper on this Heisenbug and reducing the trace_printk() calls to
an absolute minimum, it turns out that a single call would suffice to
trigger / not trigger the seen RST issue, even though the logic of the
program itself remains unchanged. Turns out the single call changed verifier
pruning behavior to get everything to work. Reconstructing a minimal test
case, the incorrect JIT dump looked as follows:
# bpftool p d j i 11346
0xffffffffc0cba96c:
[...]
21: movzbq 0x30(%rdi),%rax
26: cmp $0xd,%rax
2a: je 0x000000000000003a
2c: xor %edx,%edx
2e: movabs $0xffff89cc74e85800,%rsi
38: jmp 0x0000000000000049
3a: mov $0x2,%edx
3f: movabs $0xffff89cc74e85800,%rsi
49: mov -0x224(%rbp),%eax
4f: cmp $0x20,%eax
52: ja 0x0000000000000062
54: add $0x1,%eax
57: mov %eax,-0x224(%rbp)
5d: jmpq 0xffffffffffff6911
62: mov $0x1,%eax
[...]
Hence, unexpectedly, JIT emitted a direct jump even though retpoline based
one would have been needed since in line 2c and 3a we have different slot
keys in BPF reg r3. Verifier log of the test case reveals what happened:
0: (b7) r0 = 14
1: (73) *(u8 *)(r1 +48) = r0
2: (71) r0 = *(u8 *)(r1 +48)
3: (15) if r0 == 0xd goto pc+4
R0_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=255,var_off=(0x0; 0xff)) R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0
4: (b7) r3 = 0
5: (18) r2 = 0xffff89cc74d54a00
7: (05) goto pc+3
11: (85) call bpf_tail_call#12
12: (b7) r0 = 1
13: (95) exit
from 3 to 8: R0_w=inv13 R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0
8: (b7) r3 = 2
9: (18) r2 = 0xffff89cc74d54a00
11: safe
processed 13 insns (limit 1000000) [...]
Second branch is pruned by verifier since considered safe, but issue is that
record_func_key() couldn't have seen the index in line 3a and therefore
decided that emitting a direct jump at this location was okay.
Fix this by reusing our backtracking logic for precise scalar verification
in order to prevent pruning on the slot key. This means verifier will track
content of r3 all the way backwards and only prune if both scalars were
unknown in state equivalence check and therefore poisoned in the first place
in record_func_key(). The range is [x,x] in record_func_key() case since
the slot always would have to be constant immediate. Correct verification
after fix:
0: (b7) r0 = 14
1: (73) *(u8 *)(r1 +48) = r0
2: (71) r0 = *(u8 *)(r1 +48)
3: (15) if r0 == 0xd goto pc+4
R0_w=invP(id=0,umax_value=255,var_off=(0x0; 0xff)) R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0
4: (b7) r3 = 0
5: (18) r2 = 0x0
7: (05) goto pc+3

And correct corresponding JIT dump:

Also explicitly adding explicit env->allow_ptr_leaks to fixup_bpf_calls() since
backtracking is enabled under former (direct jumps as well, but use different
test). In case of only tracking different map pointers as in

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
