From: Menglong Dong <imagedong@xxxxxxxxxxx> The description of 'dst_port' in 'struct bpf_sock' is not accurated. In fact, 'dst_port' is not in network byte order, it is 'partly' in network byte order. We can see it in bpf_sock_convert_ctx_access(): > case offsetof(struct bpf_sock, dst_port): > *insn++ = BPF_LDX_MEM( > BPF_FIELD_SIZEOF(struct sock_common, skc_dport), > si->dst_reg, si->src_reg, > bpf_target_off(struct sock_common, skc_dport, > sizeof_field(struct sock_common, > skc_dport), > target_size)); It simply passes 'sock_common->skc_dport' to 'bpf_sock->dst_port', which makes that the low 16-bits of 'dst_port' is equal to 'skc_port' and is in network byte order, but the high 16-bites of 'dst_port' is 0. And the actual port is 'bpf_ntohs((__u16)dst_port)', and 'bpf_ntohl(dst_port)' is totally not the right port. This is different form 'remote_port' in 'struct bpf_sock_ops' or 'struct __sk_buff': > case offsetof(struct __sk_buff, remote_port): > BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof_field(struct sock_common, skc_dport) != 2); > > *insn++ = BPF_LDX_MEM(BPF_FIELD_SIZEOF(struct sk_buff, sk), > si->dst_reg, si->src_reg, > offsetof(struct sk_buff, sk)); > *insn++ = BPF_LDX_MEM(BPF_H, si->dst_reg, si->dst_reg, > bpf_target_off(struct sock_common, > skc_dport, > 2, target_size)); > #ifndef __BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD > *insn++ = BPF_ALU32_IMM(BPF_LSH, si->dst_reg, 16); > #endif We can see that it will left move 16-bits in little endian, which makes the whole 'remote_port' is in network byte order, and the actual port is bpf_ntohl(remote_port). Note this in the document of 'dst_port'. ( Maybe this should be unified in the code? ) Signed-off-by: Menglong Dong <imagedong@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/uapi/linux/bpf.h | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h b/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h index b0383d371b9a..891a182a749a 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h @@ -5500,7 +5500,11 @@ struct bpf_sock { __u32 src_ip4; __u32 src_ip6[4]; __u32 src_port; /* host byte order */ - __u32 dst_port; /* network byte order */ + __u32 dst_port; /* low 16-bits are in network byte order, + * and high 16-bits are filled by 0. + * So the real port in host byte order is + * bpf_ntohs((__u16)dst_port). + */ __u32 dst_ip4; __u32 dst_ip6[4]; __u32 state; -- 2.34.1
