4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d8b54110ee944de522ccd3531191f39986ec20f9 ] Shubham was recently asking on netdev why in arm64 JIT we don't multiply the index for accessing the tail call map by 8. That led me into testing out arm64 JIT wrt tail calls and it turned out I got a NULL pointer dereference on the tail call. The buggy access is at: prog = array->ptrs[index]; if (prog == NULL) goto out; [...] 00000060: d2800e0a mov x10, #0x70 // #112 00000064: f86a682a ldr x10, [x1,x10] 00000068: f862694b ldr x11, [x10,x2] 0000006c: b40000ab cbz x11, 0x00000080 [...] The code triggering the crash is f862694b. x1 at the time contains the address of the bpf array, x10 offsetof(struct bpf_array, ptrs). Meaning, above we load the pointer to the program at map slot 0 into x10. x10 can then be NULL if the slot is not occupied, which we later on try to access with a user given offset in x2 that is the map index. Fix this by emitting the following instead: [...] 00000060: d2800e0a mov x10, #0x70 // #112 00000064: 8b0a002a add x10, x1, x10 00000068: d37df04b lsl x11, x2, #3 0000006c: f86b694b ldr x11, [x10,x11] 00000070: b40000ab cbz x11, 0x00000084 [...] This basically adds the offset to ptrs to the base address of the bpf array we got and we later on access the map with an index * 8 offset relative to that. The tail call map itself is basically one large area with meta data at the head followed by the array of prog pointers. This makes tail calls working again, tested on Cavium ThunderX ARMv8.
