[PATCH bpf-next v2 0/2] prevent bpf_reserve_hdr_opt() from growing skb larger than MTU

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Amery Hung <amery.hung@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This series prevents sockops users from accidentally causing packet
drops. This can happen when a BPF_SOCK_OPS_HDR_OPT_LEN_CB program
reserves different option lengths in tcp_sendmsg().

Initially, sockops BPF_SOCK_OPS_HDR_OPT_LEN_CB program will be called to
reserve a space in tcp_send_mss(), which will return the MSS for TSO.
Then, BPF_SOCK_OPS_HDR_OPT_LEN_CB will be called in __tcp_transmit_skb()
again to calculate the actual tcp_option_size and skb_push() the total
header size.

skb->gso_size is restored from TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_gso_size, which is
derived from tcp_send_mss() where we first call HDR_OPT_LEN. If the
reserved opt size is smaller than the actual header size, the len of the
skb can exceed the MTU. As a result, ip(6)_fragment will drop the
packet if skb->ignore_df is not set.

To prevent this accidental packet drop, we need to make sure the
second call to the BPF_SOCK_OPS_HDR_OPT_LEN_CB program reserves space
not more than the first time. Since this cannot be done during
verification time, we add a runtime sanity check to have
bpf_reserve_hdr_opt return an error instead of causing packet drops later.

We also add a selftests to verify the sanity check. If users accidentally
reserve a small size, bpf_reserve_hdr_opt() should return an appropriate
error value and no packet should be dropped.

Changelog:
  v1 -> v2:
    - I accidentally missed the eBPF prog file in the previous patch
    submission, sorry for the convenience.
