In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid intentionally writing across neighboring fields. Use flexible arrays instead of zero-element arrays (which look like they are always overflowing) and split the cross-field memcpy() into two halves that can be appropriately bounds-checked by the compiler. We were doing: #define ETH_HLEN 14 #define VLAN_HLEN 4 ... #define MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE (ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN) ... struct mlx5e_tx_wqe *wqe = mlx5_wq_cyc_get_wqe(wq, pi); ... struct mlx5_wqe_eth_seg *eseg = &wqe->eth; struct mlx5_wqe_data_seg *dseg = wqe->data; ... memcpy(eseg->inline_hdr.start, xdptxd->data, MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE); target is wqe->eth.inline_hdr.start (which the compiler sees as being 2 bytes in size), but copying 18, intending to write across start (really vlan_tci, 2 bytes). The remaining 16 bytes get written into wqe->data[0], covering byte_count (4 bytes), lkey (4 bytes), and addr (8 bytes). struct mlx5e_tx_wqe { struct mlx5_wqe_ctrl_seg ctrl; /* 0 16 */ struct mlx5_wqe_eth_seg eth; /* 16 16 */ struct mlx5_wqe_data_seg data[]; /* 32 0 */ /* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */ /* last cacheline: 32 bytes */ }; struct mlx5_wqe_eth_seg { u8 swp_outer_l4_offset; /* 0 1 */ u8 swp_outer_l3_offset; /* 1 1 */ u8 swp_inner_l4_offset; /* 2 1 */ u8 swp_inner_l3_offset; /* 3 1 */ u8 cs_flags; /* 4 1 */ u8 swp_flags; /* 5 1 */ __be16 mss; /* 6 2 */ __be32 flow_table_metadata; /* 8 4 */ union { struct { __be16 sz; /* 12 2 */ u8 start[2]; /* 14 2 */ } inline_hdr; /* 12 4 */ struct { __be16 type; /* 12 2 */ __be16 vlan_tci; /* 14 2 */ } insert; /* 12 4 */ __be32 trailer; /* 12 4 */ }; /* 12 4 */ /* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 9 */ /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */ }; struct mlx5_wqe_data_seg { __be32 byte_count; /* 0 4 */ __be32 lkey; /* 4 4 */ __be64 addr; /* 8 8 */ /* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */ /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */ }; So, split the memcpy() so the compiler can reason about the buffer sizes. "pahole" shows no size nor member offset changes to struct mlx5e_tx_wqe nor struct mlx5e_umr_wqe. "objdump -d" shows no meaningful object code changes (i.e. only source line number induced differences and optimizations). Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, this is a rebase, and I can now address questions from https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/b5f1c558fef468fe8550ebb5e77d36bf1d0971a7.camel@xxxxxxxxxx/ - performance change? none: there is no executable code differences except that the compiler chooses different temporary registers. - why aren't the other cases a problem? The others are dynamically sized copies, and the first phase of the memcpy tightening is only handling the constant expression sizes. The runtime size checking will come next, where those other cases will need to be handled as well. But one thing at a time. :) --- drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h | 6 +++--- drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xdp.c | 4 +++- 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h b/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h index e77c4159713f..5d8e0a712313 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h @@ -225,7 +225,7 @@ static inline int mlx5e_get_max_num_channels(struct mlx5_core_dev *mdev) struct mlx5e_tx_wqe { struct mlx5_wqe_ctrl_seg ctrl; struct mlx5_wqe_eth_seg eth; - struct mlx5_wqe_data_seg data[0]; + struct mlx5_wqe_data_seg data[]; }; struct mlx5e_rx_wqe_ll { @@ -242,8 +242,8 @@ struct mlx5e_umr_wqe { struct mlx5_wqe_umr_ctrl_seg uctrl; struct mlx5_mkey_seg mkc; union { - struct mlx5_mtt inline_mtts[0]; - struct mlx5_klm inline_klms[0]; + DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY(struct mlx5_mtt, inline_mtts); + DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY(struct mlx5_klm, inline_klms); }; }; diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xdp.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xdp.c index 2f0df5cc1a2d..efae2444c26f 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xdp.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xdp.c @@ -341,8 +341,10 @@ mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame(struct mlx5e_xdpsq *sq, struct mlx5e_xmit_data *xdptxd, /* copy the inline part if required */ if (sq->min_inline_mode != MLX5_INLINE_MODE_NONE) { - memcpy(eseg->inline_hdr.start, xdptxd->data, MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE); + memcpy(eseg->inline_hdr.start, xdptxd->data, sizeof(eseg->inline_hdr.start)); eseg->inline_hdr.sz = cpu_to_be16(MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE); + memcpy(dseg, xdptxd->data + sizeof(eseg->inline_hdr.start), + MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE - sizeof(eseg->inline_hdr.start)); dma_len -= MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE; dma_addr += MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE; dseg++; -- 2.30.2
