[PATCH bpf-next v8 12/22] bpf: Support constant scalar arguments for kfuncs

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

 



Allow passing known constant scalars as arguments to kfuncs that do not
represent a size parameter. We use mark_chain_precision for the constant
scalar argument to mark it precise. This makes the search pruning
optimization of verifier more conservative for such kfunc calls, and
each non-distinct argument is considered unequivalent.

We will use this support to then expose a bpf_obj_new function where it
takes the local type ID of a type in program BTF, and returns a
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC to the local type, and allows programs to
allocate their own objects.

Each type ID resolves to a distinct type with a possibly distinct size,
hence the type ID constant matters in terms of program safety and its
precision needs to be checked between old and cur states inside regsafe.
The use of mark_chain_precision enables this.

+2.2.2 __k Annotation
+--------------------
+
+This annotation is only understood for scalar arguments, where it indicates that
+the verifier must check the scalar argument to be a known constant, which does
+not indicate a size parameter, and the value of the constant is relevant to the
+safety of the program.
+
+An example is given below::
+
+        void *bpf_obj_new(u32 local_type_id__k, ...)
+        {
+        ...
+        }
+
+Here, bpf_obj_new uses local_type_id argument to find out the size of that type
+ID in program's BTF and return a sized pointer to it. Each type ID will have a
+distinct size, hence it is crucial to treat each such call as distinct when
+values don't match during verifier state pruning checks.
+
+Hence, whenever a constant scalar argument is accepted by a kfunc which is not a
+size parameter, and the value of the constant matters for program safety, __k
+suffix should be used.
