The GetWriteWatch{} retrieves the addresses of the pages that are written to in a region of virtual memory. This syscall is used in Windows applications and games etc. This syscall is being emulated in pretty slow manner in userspace. Our purpose is to enhance the kernel such that we translate it efficiently in a better way. Currently some out of tree hack patches are being used to efficiently emulate it in some kernels. We intend to replace those with these patches. So the whole gaming on Linux can effectively get benefit from this. It means there would be tons of users of this code. CRIU use case [2] was mentioned by Andrei and Danylo: > Use cases for migrating sparse VMAs are binaries sanitized with ASAN, > MSAN or TSAN [3]. All of these sanitizers produce sparse mappings of > shadow memory [4]. Being able to migrate such binaries allows to highly > reduce the amount of work needed to identify and fix post-migration > crashes, which happen constantly. Andrei's defines the following uses of this code: * it is more granular and allows us to track changed pages more effectively. The current interface can clear dirty bits for the entire process only. In addition, reading info about pages is a separate operation. It means we must freeze the process to read information about all its pages, reset dirty bits, only then we can start dumping pages. The information about pages becomes more and more outdated, while we are processing pages. The new interface solves both these downsides. First, it allows us to read pte bits and clear the soft-dirty bit atomically. It means that CRIU will not need to freeze processes to pre-dump their memory. Second, it clears soft-dirty bits for a specified region of memory. It means CRIU will have actual info about pages to the moment of dumping them. * The new interface has to be much faster because basic page filtering is happening in the kernel. With the old interface, we have to read pagemap for each page. *Implementation Evolution (Short Summary)* From the definition of GetWriteWatch(), we feel like kernel's soft-dirty feature can be used under the hood with some additions like: * reset soft-dirty flag for only a specific region of memory instead of clearing the flag for the entire process * get and clear soft-dirty flag for a specific region atomically So we decided to use ioctl on pagemap file to read or/and reset soft-dirty flag. But using soft-dirty flag, sometimes we get extra pages which weren't even written. They had become soft-dirty because of VMA merging and VM_SOFTDIRTY flag. This breaks the definition of GetWriteWatch(). We were able to by-pass this short coming by ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY until David reported that mprotect etc messes up the soft-dirty flag while ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY [5]. This wasn't happening until [6] got introduced. We discussed if we can revert these patches. But we could not reach to any conclusion. So at this point, I made couple of tries to solve this whole VM_SOFTDIRTY issue by correcting the soft-dirty implementation: * [7] Correct the bug fixed wrongly back in 2014. It had potential to cause regression. We left it behind. * [8] Keep a list of soft-dirty part of a VMA across splits and merges. I got the reply don't increase the size of the VMA by 8 bytes. At this point, we left soft-dirty considering it is too much delicate and userfaultfd [9] seemed like the only way forward. From there onward, we have been basing soft-dirty emulation on userfaultfd wp feature where kernel resolves the faults itself when WP_ASYNC feature is used. It was straight forward to add WP_ASYNC feature in userfautlfd. Now we get only those pages dirty or written-to which are really written in reality. (PS There is another WP_UNPOPULATED userfautfd feature is required which is needed to avoid pre-faulting memory before write-protecting [9].) All the different masks were added on the request of CRIU devs to create interface more generic and better.

As kernel already has soft-dirty feature inside which we have given up to use, we are using written-to terminology while using UFFD async WP under the hood. This IOCTL, PAGEMAP_SCAN on pagemap file can be used to get and/or clear the info about page table entries. The following operations are supported in this ioctl: - Get the information if the pages have been written-to (PAGE_IS_WRITTEN), file mapped (PAGE_IS_FILE), present (PAGE_IS_PRESENT) or swapped (PAGE_IS_SWAPPED). - Write-protect the pages (PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) to start finding which pages have been written-to. - Find pages which have been written-to and write protect the pages (atomic PAGE_IS_WRITTEN + PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) It is possible to find and clear soft-dirty pages entirely in userspace. But it isn't efficient: - The mprotect and SIGSEGV handler for bookkeeping - The userfaultfd wp (synchronous) with the handler for bookkeeping Some benchmarks can be seen here[1]. This series adds features that weren't present earlier: - There is no atomic get soft-dirty/Written-to status and clear present in the kernel. - The pages which have been written-to can not be found in accurate way. (Kernel's soft-dirty PTE bit + sof_dirty VMA bit shows more soft-dirty pages than there actually are.) Historically, soft-dirty PTE bit tracking has been used in the CRIU project. The procfs interface is enough for finding the soft-dirty bit status and clearing the soft-dirty bit of all the pages of a process. We have the use case where we need to track the soft-dirty PTE bit for only specific pages on-demand. We need this tracking and clear mechanism of a region of memory while the process is running to emulate the getWriteWatch() syscall of Windows. *(Moved to using UFFD instead of soft-dirtyi feature to find pages which have been written-to from v7 patch series)*: Stop using the soft-dirty flags for finding which pages have been written to. It is too delicate and wrong as it shows more soft-dirty pages than the actual soft-dirty pages. There is no interest in correcting it [2][3] as this is how the feature was written years ago. It shouldn't be updated to changed behaviour. Peter Xu has suggested using the async version of the UFFD WP [4] as it is based inherently on the PTEs. So in this patch series, I've added a new mode to the UFFD which is asynchronous version of the write protect. When this variant of the UFFD WP is used, the page faults are resolved automatically by the kernel. The pages which have been written-to can be found by reading pagemap file (!PM_UFFD_WP). This feature can be used successfully to find which pages have been written to from the time the pages were write protected. This works just like the soft-dirty flag without showing any extra pages which aren't soft-dirty in reality. The information related to pages if the page is file mapped, present and swapped is required for the CRIU project [5][6]. The addition of the required mask, any mask, excluded mask and return masks are also required for the CRIU project [5]. The IOCTL returns the addresses of the pages which match the specific masks. The page addresses are returned in struct page_region in a compact form. The max_pages is needed to support a use case where user only wants to get a specific number of pages. So there is no need to find all the pages of interest in the range when max_pages is specified. The IOCTL returns when the maximum number of the pages are found. The max_pages is optional. If max_pages is specified, it must be equal or greater than the vec_size. This restriction is needed to handle worse case when one page_region only contains info of one page and it cannot be compacted. This is needed to emulate the Windows getWriteWatch() syscall. The patch series include the detailed selftest which can be used as an example for the uffd async wp test and PAGEMAP_IOCTL. It shows the interface usages as well.

Fair enough, and prompted by this I talk a bit more about the motiviations and benefits of a Keys abstraction for attestation here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/64961c3baf8ce_142af829436@dwillia2-xfh.jf.intel… > > Now multiple > > confidential computing vendors trying to develop similar flows with > > differentiated formats where that differentiation need not leak over the > > ABI boundary. > > > > <Just my personal opinion below> > I agree with this statement in the high level but it is also somehow > surprising for me after all the discussion happened around this topic. > Honestly, I feel like there are multiple versions of "Intel" working in > different directions.

Per above comment about firmly wearing my Linux hat I am coming at this purely from the perspective of what do we do now as a community that continues to see these implementations proliferate and grow more features. Common specs are great, but I agree with you, it is too late for that, but I hope that as Linux asserts "this is what it should look like" it starts to influence future IP innovation, and attestation service providers, to acommodate the kernel's ABI momentum. > What I see is that Intel has GETQUOTE TDVMCALL interface in its spec and > again Intel does not really want to provide support for it in linux.

Perhaps the strawman mockup makes it more clear: https://lore.kernel.org/all/64961c3baf8ce_142af829436@dwillia2-xfh.jf.intel… > So while I like the suggested direction, I am not sure how much it is > possible to come up with a common ABI even with just only for 2 vendors > (AMD and Intel) without doing spec changes which is a multi year effort > imho. I agree, hardware spec changes are out of scope for this effort, but Keys might require some additional flows to be built up in the kernel that could be previously handled in userspace. I.e. the "bottom half" that I reference in the mockup. This is something we went through with using "encrypted-keys" for nvdimm. Instead of an ioctl to inject a secret key over the user kernel boundary a key server need to store a serialized version of the encrypted key blob and pass that into the kernel.

[PATCH v2 0/2] arm64/signal: Fix handling of TPIDR2

by Mark Brown

The restoring of TPIDR2 signal context has been broken since it was merged, fix this and add a test case covering it. This is a result of TPIDR2 context management following a different flow to any of the other state that we provide and the fact that we don't expose TPIDR (which follows the same pattern) to signals.

[PATCH bpf-next v3 0/2] Fix missing synack in BPF cgroup_skb filters

by Kui-Feng Lee

TCP SYN/ACK packets of connections from processes/sockets outside a cgroup on the same host are not received by the cgroup's installed cgroup_skb filters. There were two BPF cgroup_skb programs attached to a cgroup named "my_cgroup". SEC("cgroup_skb/ingress") int ingress(struct __sk_buff *skb) { /* .... process skb ... */ return 1; } SEC("cgroup_skb/egress") int egress(struct __sk_buff *skb) { /* .... process skb ... */ return 1; } We discovered that when running the command "nc -6 -l 8000" in "my_group" and connecting to it from outside of "my_cgroup" with the command "nc -6 localhost 8000", the egress filter did not detect the SYN/ACK packet. However, we did observe the SYN/ACK packet at the ingress when connecting from a socket in "my_cgroup" to a socket outside of it. We came across BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_INET_EGRESS(). This macro is responsible for calling BPF programs that are attached to the egress hook of a cgroup and it skips programs if the sending socket is not the owner of the skb. Specifically, in our situation, the SYN/ACK skb is owned by a struct request_sock instance, but the sending socket is the listener socket we use to receive incoming connections. The request_sock is created to manage an incoming connection. It has been determined that checking the owner of a skb against the sending socket is not required. Removing this check will allow the filters to receive SYN/ACK packets. To ensure that cgroup_skb filters can receive all signaling packets, including SYN, SYN/ACK, ACK, FIN, and FIN/ACK. A new self-test has been added as well. Changes from v2: - Remove redundant blank lines. Changes from v1: - Check the number of observed packets instead of just sleeping. - Use ASSERT_XXX() instead of CHECK()/ [v1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230612191641.441774-1-kuifeng@meta.com/ [v2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230617052756.640916-2-kuifeng@meta.com/ Kui-Feng Lee (2): net: bpf: Always call BPF cgroup filters for egress. selftests/bpf: Verify that the cgroup_skb filters receive expected packets. include/linux/bpf-cgroup.h | 2 +- tools/testing/selftests/bpf/cgroup_helpers.c | 12 + tools/testing/selftests/bpf/cgroup_helpers.h | 1 + tools/testing/selftests/bpf/cgroup_tcp_skb.h | 35 ++ .../selftests/bpf/prog_tests/cgroup_tcp_skb.c | 399 ++++++++++++++++++ .../selftests/bpf/progs/cgroup_tcp_skb.c | 382 +++++++++++++++++ 6 files changed, 830 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/bpf/cgroup_tcp_skb.h create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/cgroup_tcp_skb.c create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/cgroup_tcp_skb.c -- 2.34.1

[PATCH net-next 0/9] mptcp: expose more info and small improvements

by Matthieu Baerts

Patch 1-3/9 track and expose some aggregated data counters at the MPTCP level: the number of retransmissions and the bytes that have been transferred. The first patch prepares the work by moving where snd_una is updated for fallback sockets while the last patch adds some tests to cover the new code. Patch 4-6/9 introduce a new getsockopt for SOL_MPTCP: MPTCP_FULL_INFO. This new socket option allows to combine info from MPTCP_INFO, MPTCP_TCPINFO and MPTCP_SUBFLOW_ADDRS socket options into one. It can be needed to have all info in one because the path-manager can close and re-create subflows between getsockopt() and fooling the accounting. The first patch introduces a unique subflow ID to easily detect when subflows are being re-created with the same 5-tuple while the last patch adds some tests to cover the new code. Please note that patch 5/9 ("mptcp: introduce MPTCP_FULL_INFO getsockopt") can reveal a bug that were there for a bit of time, see [1]. A fix has recently been fixed to netdev for the -net tree: "mptcp: ensure listener is unhashed before updating the sk status", see [2]. There is no conflicts between the two patches but it might be better to apply this series after the one for -net and after having merged "net" into "net-next". Patch 7/9 is similar to commit 47867f0a7e83 ("selftests: mptcp: join: skip check if MIB counter not supported") recently applied in the -net tree but here it adapts the new code that is only in net-next (and it fixes a merge conflict resolution which didn't have any impact). Patch 8 and 9/9 are two simple refactoring. One to consolidate the transition to TCP_CLOSE in mptcp_do_fastclose() and avoid duplicated code. The other one reduces the scope of an argument passed to mptcp_pm_alloc_anno_list() function.

This syscall is used in Windows applications and games etc. This syscall is being emulated in pretty slow manner in userspace. Our purpose is to enhance the kernel such that we translate it efficiently in a better way. Currently some out of tree hack patches are being used to efficiently emulate it in some kernels. We intend to replace those with these patches. So the whole gaming on Linux can effectively get benefit from this. It means there would be tons of users of this code. CRIU use case [2] was mentioned by Andrei and Danylo: > Use cases for migrating sparse VMAs are binaries sanitized with ASAN, > MSAN or TSAN [3]. All of these sanitizers produce sparse mappings of > shadow memory [4]. Being able to migrate such binaries allows to highly > reduce the amount of work needed to identify and fix post-migration > crashes, which happen constantly. Andrei's defines the following uses of this code: * it is more granular and allows us to track changed pages more effectively. The current interface can clear dirty bits for the entire process only. In addition, reading info about pages is a separate operation. It means we must freeze the process to read information about all its pages, reset dirty bits, only then we can start dumping pages. The information about pages becomes more and more outdated, while we are processing pages. The new interface solves both these downsides. First, it allows us to read pte bits and clear the soft-dirty bit atomically. It means that CRIU will not need to freeze processes to pre-dump their memory. Second, it clears soft-dirty bits for a specified region of memory. It means CRIU will have actual info about pages to the moment of dumping them. * The new interface has to be much faster because basic page filtering is happening in the kernel. With the old interface, we have to read pagemap for each page. *Implementation Evolution (Short Summary)* From the definition of GetWriteWatch(), we feel like kernel's soft-dirty feature can be used under the hood with some additions like: * reset soft-dirty flag for only a specific region of memory instead of clearing the flag for the entire process * get and clear soft-dirty flag for a specific region atomically So we decided to use ioctl on pagemap file to read or/and reset soft-dirty flag. But using soft-dirty flag, sometimes we get extra pages which weren't even written. They had become soft-dirty because of VMA merging and VM_SOFTDIRTY flag. This breaks the definition of GetWriteWatch(). We were able to by-pass this short coming by ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY until David reported that mprotect etc messes up the soft-dirty flag while ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY [5]. This wasn't happening until [6] got introduced. We discussed if we can revert these patches. But we could not reach to any conclusion. So at this point, I made couple of tries to solve this whole VM_SOFTDIRTY issue by correcting the soft-dirty implementation: * [7] Correct the bug fixed wrongly back in 2014. It had potential to cause regression. We left it behind. * [8] Keep a list of soft-dirty part of a VMA across splits and merges. I got the reply don't increase the size of the VMA by 8 bytes. At this point, we left soft-dirty considering it is too much delicate and userfaultfd [9] seemed like the only way forward. From there onward, we have been basing soft-dirty emulation on userfaultfd wp feature where kernel resolves the faults itself when WP_ASYNC feature is used. It was straight forward to add WP_ASYNC feature in userfautlfd. Now we get only those pages dirty or written-to which are really written in reality. (PS There is another WP_UNPOPULATED userfautfd feature is required which is needed to avoid pre-faulting memory before write-protecting [9].) All the different masks were added on the request of CRIU devs to create interface more generic and better.

As kernel already has soft-dirty feature inside which we have given up to use, we are using written-to terminology while using UFFD async WP under the hood. This IOCTL, PAGEMAP_SCAN on pagemap file can be used to get and/or clear the info about page table entries. The following operations are supported in this ioctl: - Get the information if the pages have been written-to (PAGE_IS_WRITTEN), file mapped (PAGE_IS_FILE), present (PAGE_IS_PRESENT) or swapped (PAGE_IS_SWAPPED). - Write-protect the pages (PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) to start finding which pages have been written-to. - Find pages which have been written-to and write protect the pages (atomic PAGE_IS_WRITTEN + PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) It is possible to find and clear soft-dirty pages entirely in userspace. But it isn't efficient: - The mprotect and SIGSEGV handler for bookkeeping - The userfaultfd wp (synchronous) with the handler for bookkeeping Some benchmarks can be seen here[1]. This series adds features that weren't present earlier: - There is no atomic get soft-dirty/Written-to status and clear present in the kernel. - The pages which have been written-to can not be found in accurate way. (Kernel's soft-dirty PTE bit + sof_dirty VMA bit shows more soft-dirty pages than there actually are.) Historically, soft-dirty PTE bit tracking has been used in the CRIU project. The procfs interface is enough for finding the soft-dirty bit status and clearing the soft-dirty bit of all the pages of a process. We have the use case where we need to track the soft-dirty PTE bit for only specific pages on-demand. We need this tracking and clear mechanism of a region of memory while the process is running to emulate the getWriteWatch() syscall of Windows. *(Moved to using UFFD instead of soft-dirtyi feature to find pages which have been written-to from v7 patch series)*: Stop using the soft-dirty flags for finding which pages have been written to. It is too delicate and wrong as it shows more soft-dirty pages than the actual soft-dirty pages. There is no interest in correcting it [2][3] as this is how the feature was written years ago. It shouldn't be updated to changed behaviour. Peter Xu has suggested using the async version of the UFFD WP [4] as it is based inherently on the PTEs. So in this patch series, I've added a new mode to the UFFD which is asynchronous version of the write protect. When this variant of the UFFD WP is used, the page faults are resolved automatically by the kernel. The pages which have been written-to can be found by reading pagemap file (!PM_UFFD_WP). This feature can be used successfully to find which pages have been written to from the time the pages were write protected. This works just like the soft-dirty flag without showing any extra pages which aren't soft-dirty in reality. The information related to pages if the page is file mapped, present and swapped is required for the CRIU project [5][6]. The addition of the required mask, any mask, excluded mask and return masks are also required for the CRIU project [5]. The IOCTL returns the addresses of the pages which match the specific masks. The page addresses are returned in struct page_region in a compact form. The max_pages is needed to support a use case where user only wants to get a specific number of pages. So there is no need to find all the pages of interest in the range when max_pages is specified. The IOCTL returns when the maximum number of the pages are found. The max_pages is optional. If max_pages is specified, it must be equal or greater than the vec_size. This restriction is needed to handle worse case when one page_region only contains info of one page and it cannot be compacted. This is needed to emulate the Windows getWriteWatch() syscall. The patch series include the detailed selftest which can be used as an example for the uffd async wp test and PAGEMAP_IOCTL. It shows the interface usages as well.
