In kernel, it is common to check "skb->sk && sk_fullsock(skb->sk)"
before accessing the fields in sock. For example, in __netdev_pick_tx:
static u16 __netdev_pick_tx(struct net_device *dev, struct sk_buff *skb,
struct net_device *sb_dev)
{
/* ... */
struct sock *sk = skb->sk;
if (queue_index != new_index && sk &&
sk_fullsock(sk) &&
rcu_access_pointer(sk->sk_dst_cache))
sk_tx_queue_set(sk, new_index);
/* ... */
return queue_index;
}
This patch adds a "struct bpf_sock *sk" pointer to the "struct __sk_buff"
where a few of the convert_ctx_access() in filter.c has already been
accessing the skb->sk sock_common's fields,
e.g. sock_ops_convert_ctx_access().
"__sk_buff->sk" is a PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON_OR_NULL in the verifier.
Some of the fileds in "bpf_sock" will not be directly
accessible through the "__sk_buff->sk" pointer. It is limited
by the new "bpf_sock_common_is_valid_access()".
e.g. The existing "type", "protocol", "mark" and "priority" in bpf_sock
are not allowed.
The newly added "struct bpf_sock *bpf_sk_fullsock(struct bpf_sock *sk)"
can be used to get a sk with all accessible fields in "bpf_sock".
This helper is added to both cg_skb and sched_(cls|act).
int cg_skb_foo(struct __sk_buff *skb) {
struct bpf_sock *sk;
sk = skb->sk;
if (!sk)
return 1;
sk = bpf_sk_fullsock(sk);
if (!sk)
return 1;
if (sk->family != AF_INET6 || sk->protocol != IPPROTO_TCP)
return 1;
/* some_traffic_shaping(); */
return 1;
}
(1) The sk is read only
(2) There is no new "struct bpf_sock_common" introduced.
(3) Future kernel sock's members could be added to bpf_sock only
instead of repeatedly adding at multiple places like currently
in bpf_sock_ops_md, bpf_sock_addr_md, sk_reuseport_md...etc.
(4) After "sk = skb->sk", the reg holding sk is in type
PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON_OR_NULL.
(5) After bpf_sk_fullsock(), the return type will be in type
PTR_TO_SOCKET_OR_NULL which is the same as the return type of
bpf_sk_lookup_xxx().
However, bpf_sk_fullsock() does not take refcnt. The
acquire_reference_state() is only depending on the return type now.
To avoid it, a new is_acquire_function() is checked before calling
acquire_reference_state().
(6) The WARN_ON in "release_reference_state()" is no longer an
internal verifier bug.
When reg->id is not found in state->refs[], it means the
bpf_prog does something wrong like
"bpf_sk_release(bpf_sk_fullsock(skb->sk))" where reference has
never been acquired by calling "bpf_sk_fullsock(skb->sk)".
A -EINVAL and a verbose are done instead of WARN_ON. A test is
added to the test_verifier in a later patch.
Since the WARN_ON in "release_reference_state()" is no longer
needed, "__release_reference_state()" is folded into
"release_reference_state()" also.
