Re: [PATCH bpf-next v3 00/17] Introduce eBPF support for HID devices

Hi Benjamin,

I tested this iteration of the set, and I faced couple of problems with it.

1) There were some conflicts as I could not figure out the correct kernel commit on which to apply the series on. I applied this on top of last weeks bpf-next (see below) with some local merge fixes.

commit 2af7e566a8616c278e1d7287ce86cd3900bed943 (bpf-next/master, bpf-next/for-next)
Author: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@xxxxxxxxxx>

    net/mlx5e: Fix build warning, detected write beyond size of field

2) hid_is_valid_access() causes some trouble and it rejects pretty much every BPF program which tries to use ctx->retval. This appears to be because prog->expected_attach_type is not populated, I had to apply below local tweak to overcome this problem:

diff --git a/kernel/bpf/hid.c b/kernel/bpf/hid.c
index 30a62e8e0f0a..bf64411e6e9b 100644
--- a/kernel/bpf/hid.c
+++ b/kernel/bpf/hid.c
@@ -180,8 +180,7 @@ static bool hid_is_valid_access(int off, int size,
        case offsetof(struct hid_bpf_ctx, retval):
                if (size != size_default)
                        return false;
-               return (prog->expected_attach_type == BPF_HID_USER_EVENT ||
-                       prog->expected_attach_type == BPF_HID_DRIVER_EVENT);
+               return true;
        default:
                if (size != size_default)
                        return false;

Proper fix would probably be to actually populate the expected_attach_type, but I could not figure out quickly where this should be done, or whether it is actually done on some other base commit.

With those, for the whole series:

Hi,

This is a followup of my v1 at [0] and v2 at [1].

The short summary of the previous cover letter and discussions is that
HID could benefit from BPF for the following use cases:

- simple fixup of report descriptor:
   benefits are faster development time and testing, with the produced
   bpf program being shipped in the kernel directly (the shipping part
   is *not* addressed here).

- Universal Stylus Interface:
   allows a user-space program to define its own kernel interface

- Surface Dial:
   somehow similar to the previous one except that userspace can decide
   to change the shape of the exported device

- firewall:
   still partly missing there, there is not yet interception of hidraw
   calls, but it's coming in a followup series, I promise

- tracing:
   well, tracing.


I think I addressed the comments from the previous version, but there are
a few things I'd like to note here:

- I did not take the various rev-by and tested-by (thanks a lot for those)
   because the uapi changed significantly in v3, so I am not very confident
   in taking those rev-by blindly

- I mentioned in my discussion with Song that I'll put a summary of the uapi
   in the cover letter, but I ended up adding a (long) file in the Documentation
   directory. So please maybe start by reading 17/17 to have an overview of
   what I want to achieve

- I added in the libbpf and bpf the new type BPF_HID_DRIVER_EVENT, even though
   I don't have a user of it right now in the kernel. I wanted to have them in
   the docs, but we might not want to have them ready here.
   In terms of code, it just means that we can attach such programs types
   but that they will never get triggered.

Anyway, I have been mulling on this for the past 2 weeks, and I think that
maybe sharing this now is better than me just starring at the code over and
over.


Short summary of changes:

v3:
===

- squashed back together most of the libbpf and bpf changes into bigger
   commits that give a better overview of the whole interactions

- reworked the user API to not expose .data as a directly accessible field
   from the context, but instead forces everyone to use hid_bpf_get_data (or
   get/set_bits)

- added BPF_HID_DRIVER_EVENT (see note above)

- addressed the various nitpicks from v2

- added a big Documentation file (and so adding now the doc maintainers to the
   long list of recipients)

v2:
===

- split the series by subsystem (bpf, HID, libbpf, selftests and
   samples)

- Added an extra patch at the beginning to not require CAP_NET_ADMIN for
   BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2 (please shout if this is wrong)

- made the bpf context attached to HID program of dynamic size:
   * the first 1 kB will be able to be addressed directly
   * the rest can be retrieved through bpf_hid_{set|get}_data
     (note that I am definitivey not happy with that API, because there
     is part of it in bits and other in bytes. ouch)

- added an extra patch to prevent non GPL HID bpf programs to be loaded
   of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_HID
   * same here, not really happy but I don't know where to put that check
     in verifier.c

- added a new flag BPF_F_INSERT_HEAD for BPF_LINK_CREATE syscall when in
   used with HID program types.
   * this flag is used for tracing, to be able to load a program before
     any others that might already have been inserted and that might
     change the data stream.

Cheers,
Benjamin
