Currently, signed load instructions into arena memory are unsupported.
The compiler is free to generate these, and on GCC-14 we see a
corresponding error when it happens. The hurdle in supporting them is
deciding which unused opcode to use to mark them for the JIT's own
consumption. After much thinking, it appears 0xc0 / BPF_NOSPEC can be
combined with load instructions to identify signed arena loads. Use
this to recognize and JIT them appropriately, and remove the verifier
side limitation on the program if the JIT supports them.

Now that we can create a dynptr to skb metadata, make reads to the metadata
area possible with bpf_dynptr_read() or through a bpf_dynptr_slice(), and
make writes to the metadata area possible with bpf_dynptr_write() or
through a bpf_dynptr_slice_rdwr().
Note that for cloned skbs which share data with the original, we limit the
skb metadata dynptr to be read-only since we don't unclone on a
bpf_dynptr_write to metadata.

In the past %pK was preferable to %p as it would not leak raw pointer
values into the kernel log.
Since commit ad67b74d24 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p")
the regular %p has been improved to avoid this issue.
Furthermore, restricted pointers ("%pK") were never meant to be used
through printk(). They can still unintentionally leak raw pointers or
acquire sleeping locks in atomic contexts.
Switch to the regular pointer formatting which is safer and
easier to reason about.

Add a new SKB drop reason (SKB_DROP_REASON_PFMEMALLOC) to track packets
dropped due to memory pressure. In production environments, we've observed
memory exhaustion reported by memory layer stack traces, but these drops
were not properly tracked in the SKB drop reason infrastructure.
While most network code paths now properly report pfmemalloc drops, some
protocol-specific socket implementations still use sk_filter() without
drop reason tracking:
- Bluetooth L2CAP sockets
- CAIF sockets
- IUCV sockets
- Netlink sockets
- SCTP sockets
- Unix domain sockets
These remaining cases represent less common paths and could be converted
in a follow-up patch if needed. The current implementation provides
significantly improved observability into memory pressure events in the
network stack, especially for key protocols like TCP and UDP, helping to
diagnose problems in production environments.

This changes the semantics of BPF_NOSPEC (previously a v4-only barrier)
to always emit a speculation barrier that works against both Spectre v1
AND v4. If mitigation is not needed on an architecture, the backend
should set bpf_jit_bypass_spec_v4/v1().
As of now, this commit only has the user-visible implication that unpriv
BPF's performance on PowerPC is reduced. This is the case because we
have to emit additional v1 barrier instructions for BPF_NOSPEC now.
This commit is required for a future commit to allow us to rely on
BPF_NOSPEC for Spectre v1 mitigation. As of this commit, the feature
that nospec acts as a v1 barrier is unused.
Commit f5e81d1117 ("bpf: Introduce BPF nospec instruction for
mitigating Spectre v4") noted that mitigation instructions for v1 and v4
might be different on some archs. While this would potentially offer
improved performance on PowerPC, it was dismissed after the following
considerations:
* Only having one barrier simplifies the verifier and allows us to
easily rely on v4-induced barriers for reducing the complexity of
v1-induced speculative path verification.
* For the architectures that implemented BPF_NOSPEC, only PowerPC has
distinct instructions for v1 and v4. Even there, some insns may be
shared between the barriers for v1 and v4 (e.g., 'ori 31,31,0' and
'sync'). If this is still found to impact performance in an
unacceptable way, BPF_NOSPEC can be split into BPF_NOSPEC_V1 and
BPF_NOSPEC_V4 later. As an optimization, we can already skip v1/v4
insns from being emitted for PowerPC with this setup if
bypass_spec_v1/v4 is set.
Vulnerability-status for BPF_NOSPEC-based Spectre mitigations (v4 as of
this commit, v1 in the future) is therefore:
* x86 (32-bit and 64-bit), ARM64, and PowerPC (64-bit): Mitigated - This
patch implements BPF_NOSPEC for these architectures. The previous
v4-only version was supported since commit f5e81d1117 ("bpf:
Introduce BPF nospec instruction for mitigating Spectre v4") and
commit b7540d6250 ("powerpc/bpf: Emit stf barrier instruction
sequences for BPF_NOSPEC").
* LoongArch: Not Vulnerable - Commit a6f6a95f25 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix
jit to skip speculation barrier opcode") is the only other past commit
related to BPF_NOSPEC and indicates that the insn is not required
there.
* MIPS: Vulnerable (if unprivileged BPF is enabled) -
Commit a6f6a95f2580 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix jit to skip speculation
barrier opcode") indicates that it is not vulnerable, but this
contradicts the kernel and Debian documentation. Therefore, I assume
that there exist vulnerable MIPS CPUs (but maybe not from Loongson?).
In the future, BPF_NOSPEC could be implemented for MIPS based on the
GCC speculation_barrier [1]. For now, we rely on unprivileged BPF
being disabled by default.
* Other: Unknown - To the best of my knowledge there is no definitive
information available that indicates that any other arch is
vulnerable. They are therefore left untouched (BPF_NOSPEC is not
implemented, but bypass_spec_v1/v4 is also not set).
I did the following testing to ensure the insn encoding is correct:
* ARM64:
* 'dsb nsh; isb' was successfully tested with the BPF CI in [2]
* 'sb' locally using QEMU v7.2.15 -cpu max (emitted sb insn is
executed for example with './test_progs -t verifier_array_access')
* PowerPC: The following configs were tested locally with ppc64le QEMU
v8.2 '-machine pseries -cpu POWER9':
* STF_BARRIER_EIEIO + CONFIG_PPC_BOOK32_64
* STF_BARRIER_SYNC_ORI (forced on) + CONFIG_PPC_BOOK32_64
* STF_BARRIER_FALLBACK (forced on) + CONFIG_PPC_BOOK32_64
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_EIEIO
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_SYNC_ORI (forced on)
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_FALLBACK (forced on)
* CONFIG_PPC_E500 (forced on) + STF_BARRIER_NONE (forced on)
Most of those cobinations should not occur in practice, but I was not
able to get an PPC e6500 rootfs (for testing PPC_E500 without forcing
it on). In any case, this should ensure that there are no unexpected
conflicts between the insns when combined like this. Individual v1/v4
barriers were already emitted elsewhere.
Hari's ack is for the PowerPC changes only.

Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release
semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags:
#define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100
#define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110
A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm'
field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100).
Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with
the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110).
Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support
BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and
store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an
exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not
supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the
kernel test robot).
An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to
a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends.
Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned
load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if
BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set).
As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF
instruction (assuming little-endian):
db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))
opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ
Similarly, a 16-bit BPF store-release:
cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00 store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2)
opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL
In arch/{arm64,s390,x86}/net/bpf_jit_comp.c, have
bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) return false for the new
instructions, until the corresponding JIT compiler supports them in
arena.

Implement support in the verifier for replacing may_goto implementation
from a counter-based approach to one which samples time on the local CPU
to have a bigger loop bound.
We implement it by maintaining 16-bytes per-stack frame, and using 8
bytes for maintaining the count for amortizing time sampling, and 8
bytes for the starting timestamp. To minimize overhead, we need to avoid
spilling and filling of registers around this sequence, so we push this
cost into the time sampling function 'arch_bpf_timed_may_goto'. This is
a JIT-specific wrapper around bpf_check_timed_may_goto which returns us
the count to store into the stack through BPF_REG_AX. All caller-saved
registers (r0-r5) are guaranteed to remain untouched.
The loop can be broken by returning count as 0, otherwise we dispatch
into the function when the count drops to 0, and the runtime chooses to
refresh it (by returning count as BPF_MAX_TIMED_LOOPS) or returning 0
and aborting the loop on next iteration.
Since the check for 0 is done right after loading the count from the
stack, all subsequent cond_break sequences should immediately break as
well, of the same loop or subsequent loops in the program.
We pass in the stack_depth of the count (and thus the timestamp, by
adding 8 to it) to the arch_bpf_timed_may_goto call so that it can be
passed in to bpf_check_timed_may_goto as an argument after r1 is saved,
by adding the offset to r10/fp. This adjustment will be arch specific,
and the next patch will introduce support for x86.
Note that depending on loop complexity, time spent in the loop can be
more than the current limit (250 ms), but imposing an upper bound on
program runtime is an orthogonal problem which will be addressed when
program cancellations are supported.
The current time afforded by cond_break may not be enough for cases
where BPF programs want to implement locking algorithms inline, and use
cond_break as a promise to the verifier that they will eventually
terminate.
Below are some benchmarking numbers on the time taken per-iteration for
an empty loop that counts the number of iterations until cond_break
fires. For comparison, we compare it against bpf_for/bpf_repeat which is
another way to achieve the same number of spins (BPF_MAX_LOOPS). The
hardware used for benchmarking was a Sapphire Rapids Intel server with
performance governor enabled, mitigations were enabled.
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
| Loop type | Iterations | Time (ms) | Time/iter (ns) |
+-----------------------------|--------------+--------------+------------------+
| may_goto | 8388608 | 3 | 0.36 |
| timed_may_goto (count=65535)| 589674932 | 250 | 0.42 |
| bpf_for | 8388608 | 10 | 1.19 |
+-----------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------------+
This gives a good approximation at low overhead while staying close to
the current implementation.

Test gen_prologue and gen_epilogue that generate kfuncs that have not
been seen in the main program.
The main bpf program and return value checks are identical to
pro_epilogue.c introduced in commit 47e69431b5 ("selftests/bpf: Test
gen_prologue and gen_epilogue"). However, now when bpf_testmod_st_ops
detects a program name with prefix "test_kfunc_", it generates slightly
different prologue and epilogue: They still add 1000 to args->a in
prologue, add 10000 to args->a and set r0 to 2 * args->a in epilogue,
but involve kfuncs.
At high level, the alternative version of prologue and epilogue look
like this:
cgrp = bpf_cgroup_from_id(0);
if (cgrp)
bpf_cgroup_release(cgrp);
else
/* Perform what original bpf_testmod_st_ops prologue or
* epilogue does
*/
Since 0 is never a valid cgroup id, the original prologue or epilogue
logic will be performed. As a result, the __retval check should expect
the exact same return value.

The subsequent patch will implement BPF TX timestamping. It will
call the sockops BPF program without holding the sock lock.
This breaks the current assumption that all sock ops programs will
hold the sock lock. The sock's fields of the uapi's bpf_sock_ops
requires this assumption.
To address this, a new "u8 is_locked_tcp_sock;" field is added. This
patch sets it in the current sock_ops callbacks. The "is_fullsock"
test is then replaced by the "is_locked_tcp_sock" test during
sock_ops_convert_ctx_access().
The new TX timestamping callbacks added in the subsequent patch will
not have this set. This will prevent unsafe access from the new
timestamping callbacks.
Potentially, we could allow read-only access. However, this would
require identifying which callback is read-safe-only and also requires
additional BPF instruction rewrites in the covert_ctx. Since the BPF
program can always read everything from a socket (e.g., by using
bpf_core_cast), this patch keeps it simple and disables all read
and write access to any socket fields through the bpf_sock_ops
UAPI from the new TX timestamping callback.
Moreover, note that some of the fields in bpf_sock_ops are specific
to tcp_sock, and sock_ops currently only supports tcp_sock. In
the future, UDP timestamping will be added, which will also break
this assumption. The same idea used in this patch will be reused.
Considering that the current sock_ops only supports tcp_sock, the
variable is named is_locked_"tcp"_sock.

In lots of places, bpf_prog pointer is used only for tracing or other
stuff that doesn't modify the structure itself. Same for net_device.
Address at least some of them and add `const` attributes there. The
object code didn't change, but that may prevent unwanted data
modifications and also allow more helpers to have const arguments.

Private stack will be allocated with percpu allocator in jit time.
To avoid complexity at runtime, only one copy of private stack is
available per cpu per prog. So runtime recursion check is necessary
to avoid stack corruption.
Current private stack only supports kprobe/perf_event/tp/raw_tp
which has recursion check in the kernel, and prog types that use
bpf trampoline recursion check. For trampoline related prog types,
currently only tracing progs have recursion checking.
To avoid complexity, all async_cb subprogs use normal kernel stack
including those subprogs used by both main prog subtree and async_cb
subtree. Any prog having tail call also uses kernel stack.
To avoid jit penalty with private stack support, a subprog stack
size threshold is set such that only if the stack size is no less
than the threshold, private stack is supported. The current threshold
is 64 bytes. This avoids jit penality if the stack usage is small.
A useless 'continue' is also removed from a loop in func
check_max_stack_depth().

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
- Introduce '__attribute__((bpf_fastcall))' for helpers and kfuncs with
corresponding support in LLVM.
It is similar to existing 'no_caller_saved_registers' attribute in
GCC/LLVM with a provision for backward compatibility. It allows
compilers generate more efficient BPF code assuming the verifier or
JITs will inline or partially inline a helper/kfunc with such
attribute. bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx, bpf_rdonly_cast,
bpf_get_smp_processor_id are the first set of such helpers.
- Harden and extend ELF build ID parsing logic.
When called from sleepable context the relevants parts of ELF file
will be read to find and fetch .note.gnu.build-id information. Also
harden the logic to avoid TOCTOU, overflow, out-of-bounds problems.
- Improvements and fixes for sched-ext:
- Allow passing BPF iterators as kfunc arguments
- Make the pointer returned from iter_next method trusted
- Fix x86 JIT convergence issue due to growing/shrinking conditional
jumps in variable length encoding
- BPF_LSM related:
- Introduce few VFS kfuncs and consolidate them in
fs/bpf_fs_kfuncs.c
- Enforce correct range of return values from certain LSM hooks
- Disallow attaching to other LSM hooks
- Prerequisite work for upcoming Qdisc in BPF:

This patch adds a .gen_epilogue to the bpf_verifier_ops. It is similar
to the existing .gen_prologue. Instead of allowing a subsystem
to run code at the beginning of a bpf prog, it allows the subsystem
to run code just before the bpf prog exit.
One of the use case is to allow the upcoming bpf qdisc to ensure that
the skb->dev is the same as the qdisc->dev_queue->dev. The bpf qdisc
struct_ops implementation could either fix it up or drop the skb.
Another use case could be in bpf_tcp_ca.c to enforce snd_cwnd
has sane value (e.g. non zero).
The epilogue can do the useful thing (like checking skb->dev) if it
can access the bpf prog's ctx. Unlike prologue, r1 may not hold the
ctx pointer. This patch saves the r1 in the stack if the .gen_epilogue
has returned some instructions in the "epilogue_buf".
The existing .gen_prologue is done in convert_ctx_accesses().
The new .gen_epilogue is done in the convert_ctx_accesses() also.
When it sees the (BPF_JMP | BPF_EXIT) instruction, it will be patched
with the earlier generated "epilogue_buf". The epilogue patching is
only done for the main prog.
Only one epilogue will be patched to the main program. When the
bpf prog has multiple BPF_EXIT instructions, a BPF_JA is used
to goto the earlier patched epilogue. Majority of the archs
support (BPF_JMP32 | BPF_JA): x86, arm, s390, risv64, loongarch,
powerpc and arc. This patch keeps it simple and always
use (BPF_JMP32 | BPF_JA). A new macro BPF_JMP32_A is added to
generate the (BPF_JMP32 | BPF_JA) insn.

Every NIC driver utilizing XDP should invoke xdp_do_flush() after
processing all packages. With the introduction of the bpf_net_context
logic the flush lists (for dev, CPU-map and xsk) are lazy initialized
only if used. However xdp_do_flush() tries to flush all three of them so
all three lists are always initialized and the likely empty lists are
"iterated".
Without the usage of XDP but with CONFIG_DEBUG_NET the lists are also
initialized due to xdp_do_check_flushed().
Jakub suggest to utilize the hints in bpf_net_context and avoid invoking
the flush function. This will also avoiding initializing the lists which
are otherwise unused.
Introduce bpf_net_ctx_get_all_used_flush_lists() to return the
individual list if not-empty. Use the logic in xdp_do_flush() and
xdp_do_check_flushed(). Remove the not needed .*_check_flush().

Building with W=1 in some configurations produces a false positive
warning for kallsyms:
kernel/kallsyms.c: In function '__sprint_symbol.isra':
kernel/kallsyms.c:503:17: error: 'strcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
503 | strcpy(buffer, name);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This originally showed up while building with -O3, but later started
happening in other configurations as well, depending on inlining
decisions. The underlying issue is that the local 'name' variable is
always initialized to the be the same as 'buffer' in the called functions
that fill the buffer, which gcc notices while inlining, though it could
see that the address check always skips the copy.
The calling conventions here are rather unusual, as all of the internal
lookup functions (bpf_address_lookup, ftrace_mod_address_lookup,
ftrace_func_address_lookup, module_address_lookup and
kallsyms_lookup_buildid) already use the provided buffer and either return
the address of that buffer to indicate success, or NULL for failure,
but the callers are written to also expect an arbitrary other buffer
to be returned.
Rework the calling conventions to return the length of the filled buffer
instead of its address, which is simpler and easier to follow as well
as avoiding the warning. Leave only the kallsyms_lookup() calling conventions
unchanged, since that is called from 16 different functions and
adapting this would be a much bigger change.

The XDP redirect process is two staged:
- bpf_prog_run_xdp() is invoked to run a eBPF program which inspects the
packet and makes decisions. While doing that, the per-CPU variable
bpf_redirect_info is used.
- Afterwards xdp_do_redirect() is invoked and accesses bpf_redirect_info
and it may also access other per-CPU variables like xskmap_flush_list.
At the very end of the NAPI callback, xdp_do_flush() is invoked which
does not access bpf_redirect_info but will touch the individual per-CPU
lists.
The per-CPU variables are only used in the NAPI callback hence disabling
bottom halves is the only protection mechanism. Users from preemptible
context (like cpu_map_kthread_run()) explicitly disable bottom halves
for protections reasons.
Without locking in local_bh_disable() on PREEMPT_RT this data structure
requires explicit locking.
PREEMPT_RT has forced-threaded interrupts enabled and every
NAPI-callback runs in a thread. If each thread has its own data
structure then locking can be avoided.
Create a struct bpf_net_context which contains struct bpf_redirect_info.
Define the variable on stack, use bpf_net_ctx_set() to save a pointer to
it, bpf_net_ctx_clear() removes it again.
The bpf_net_ctx_set() may nest. For instance a function can be used from
within NET_RX_SOFTIRQ/ net_rx_action which uses bpf_net_ctx_set() and
NET_TX_SOFTIRQ which does not. Therefore only the first invocations
updates the pointer.
Use bpf_net_ctx_get_ri() as a wrapper to retrieve the current struct
bpf_redirect_info. The returned data structure is zero initialized to
ensure nothing is leaked from stack. This is done on first usage of the
struct. bpf_net_ctx_set() sets bpf_redirect_info::kern_flags to 0 to
note that initialisation is required. First invocation of
bpf_net_ctx_get_ri() will memset() the data structure and update
bpf_redirect_info::kern_flags.
bpf_redirect_info::nh is excluded from memset because it is only used
once BPF_F_NEIGH is set which also sets the nh member. The kern_flags is
moved past nh to exclude it from memset.
The pointer to bpf_net_context is saved task's task_struct. Using
always the bpf_net_context approach has the advantage that there is
almost zero differences between PREEMPT_RT and non-PREEMPT_RT builds.

The sysctl core is preparing to only expose instances of struct ctl_table
as "const". This will also affect the ctl_table argument of sysctl handlers,
for which bpf_sysctl_kern::table is also used.
As the function prototype of all sysctl handlers throughout the tree
needs to stay consistent that change will be done in one commit.
To reduce the size of that final commit, switch this utility type which
is not bound by "typedef proc_handler" to "const struct ctl_table".
No functional change.

Inline the calls to bpf_get_smp_processor_id() in the riscv bpf jit.
RISCV saves the pointer to the CPU's task_struct in the TP (thread
pointer) register. This makes it trivial to get the CPU's processor id.
As thread_info is the first member of task_struct, we can read the
processor id from TP + offsetof(struct thread_info, cpu).

Support atomics in bpf_arena that can be JITed as a single x86 instruction.
Instructions that are JITed as loops are not supported at the moment,
since they require more complex extable and loop logic.
JITs can choose to do smarter things with bpf_jit_supports_insn().
Like arm64 may decide to support all bpf atomics instructions
when emit_lse_atomic is available and none in ll_sc mode.
bpf_jit_supports_percpu_insn(), bpf_jit_supports_ptr_xchg() and
other such callbacks can be replaced with bpf_jit_supports_insn()
in the future.

Add a new BPF instruction for resolving absolute addresses of per-CPU
data from their per-CPU offsets. This instruction is internal-only and
users are not allowed to use them directly. They will only be used for
internal inlining optimizations for now between BPF verifier and BPF JITs.
We use a special BPF_MOV | BPF_ALU64 | BPF_X form with insn->off field
set to BPF_ADDR_PERCPU = -1. I used negative offset value to distinguish
them from positive ones used by user-exposed instructions.
Such instruction performs a resolution of a per-CPU offset stored in
a register to a valid kernel address which can be dereferenced. It is
useful in any use case where absolute address of a per-CPU data has to
be resolved (e.g., in inlining bpf_map_lookup_elem()).
BPF disassembler is also taught to recognize them to support dumping
final BPF assembly code (non-JIT'ed version).
Add arch-specific way for BPF JITs to mark support for this instructions.
This patch also adds support for these instructions in x86-64 BPF JIT.

This patch improves the run-time calculation for program stats by
capturing the duration as soon as possible after the program returns.
Previously, the duration included u64_stats_t operations. While the
instrumentation overhead is part of the total time spent when stats are
enabled, distinguishing between the program's native execution time and
the time spent due to instrumentation is crucial for accurate
performance analysis.
By making this change, the patch facilitates more precise optimization
of BPF programs, enabling users to understand their performance in
environments without stats enabled.
I used a virtualized environment to measure the run-time over one minute
for a basic raw_tracepoint/sys_enter program, which just increments a
local counter. Although the virtualization introduced some performance
degradation that could affect the results, I observed approximately a
16% decrease in average run-time reported by stats with this change
(310 -> 260 nsec).

LLVM generates bpf_addr_space_cast instruction while translating
pointers between native (zero) address space and
__attribute__((address_space(N))).
The addr_space=1 is reserved as bpf_arena address space.
rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 0, 1) is processed by the verifier and
converted to normal 32-bit move: wX = wY
rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 1, 0) has to be converted by JIT:
aux_reg = upper_32_bits of arena->user_vm_start
aux_reg <<= 32
wX = wY // clear upper 32 bits of dst register
if (wX) // if not zero add upper bits of user_vm_start
wX |= aux_reg
JIT can do it more efficiently:
mov dst_reg32, src_reg32 // 32-bit move
shl dst_reg, 32
or dst_reg, user_vm_start
rol dst_reg, 32
xor r11, r11
test dst_reg32, dst_reg32 // check if lower 32-bit are zero
cmove r11, dst_reg // if so, set dst_reg to zero

Add support for [LDX | STX | ST], PROBE_MEM32, [B | H | W | DW] instructions.
They are similar to PROBE_MEM instructions with the following differences:
- PROBE_MEM has to check that the address is in the kernel range with
src_reg + insn->off >= TASK_SIZE_MAX + PAGE_SIZE check
- PROBE_MEM doesn't support store
- PROBE_MEM32 relies on the verifier to clear upper 32-bit in the register
- PROBE_MEM32 adds 64-bit kern_vm_start address (which is stored in %r12 in the prologue)
Due to bpf_arena constructions such %r12 + %reg + off16 access is guaranteed
to be within arena virtual range, so no address check at run-time.
- PROBE_MEM32 allows STX and ST. If they fault the store is a nop.
When LDX faults the destination register is zeroed.

Currently tracing is supposed not to allow for bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}()
helper calls. This is to prevent deadlock for the following cases:
- there is a prog (prog-A) calling bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
- there is a tracing program (prog-B), e.g., fentry, attached
to bpf_spin_lock() and/or bpf_spin_unlock().
- prog-B calls bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
For such a case, when prog-A calls bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}(),
a deadlock will happen.
The related source codes are below in kernel/bpf/helpers.c:
notrace BPF_CALL_1(bpf_spin_lock, struct bpf_spin_lock *, lock)
notrace BPF_CALL_1(bpf_spin_unlock, struct bpf_spin_lock *, lock)
notrace is supposed to prevent fentry prog from attaching to
bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
But actually this is not the case and fentry prog can successfully
attached to bpf_spin_lock(). Siddharth Chintamaneni reported
the issue in [1]. The following is the macro definition for
above BPF_CALL_1:
#define BPF_CALL_x(x, name, ...) \
static __always_inline \
u64 ____##name(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__)); \
typedef u64 (*btf_##name)(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__)); \
u64 name(__BPF_REG(x, __BPF_DECL_REGS, __BPF_N, __VA_ARGS__)); \
u64 name(__BPF_REG(x, __BPF_DECL_REGS, __BPF_N, __VA_ARGS__)) \
{ \
return ((btf_##name)____##name)(__BPF_MAP(x,__BPF_CAST,__BPF_N,__VA_ARGS__));\
} \
static __always_inline \
u64 ____##name(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__))
#define BPF_CALL_1(name, ...) BPF_CALL_x(1, name, __VA_ARGS__)
The notrace attribute is actually applied to the static always_inline function
____bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}(). The actual callback function
bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}() is not marked with notrace, hence
allowing fentry prog to attach to two helpers, and this
may cause the above mentioned deadlock. Siddharth Chintamaneni
actually has a reproducer in [2].
To fix the issue, a new macro NOTRACE_BPF_CALL_1 is introduced which
will add notrace attribute to the original function instead of
the hidden always_inline function and this fixed the problem.

The motivation of inlining bpf_kptr_xchg() comes from the performance
profiling of bpf memory allocator benchmark. The benchmark uses
bpf_kptr_xchg() to stash the allocated objects and to pop the stashed
objects for free. After inling bpf_kptr_xchg(), the performance for
object free on 8-CPUs VM increases about 2%~10%. The inline also has
downside: both the kasan and kcsan checks on the pointer will be
unavailable.
bpf_kptr_xchg() can be inlined by converting the calling of
bpf_kptr_xchg() into an atomic_xchg() instruction. But the conversion
depends on two conditions:
1) JIT backend supports atomic_xchg() on pointer-sized word
2) For the specific arch, the implementation of xchg is the same as
atomic_xchg() on pointer-sized words.
It seems most 64-bit JIT backends satisfies these two conditions. But
as a precaution, defining a weak function bpf_jit_supports_ptr_xchg()
to state whether such conversion is safe and only supporting inline for
64-bit host.
For x86-64, it supports BPF_XCHG atomic operation and both xchg() and
atomic_xchg() use arch_xchg() to implement the exchange, so enabling the
inline of bpf_kptr_xchg() on x86-64 first.
