Re: [PATCH bpf-next v3 1/6] bpf: Introduce pseudo_btf_id

On Wed, Sep 16, 2020 at 3:39 PM Hao Luo haoluo@google.com wrote:

Pseudo_btf_id is a type of ld_imm insn that associates a btf_id to a ksym so that further dereferences on the ksym can use the BTF info to validate accesses. Internally, when seeing a pseudo_btf_id ld insn, the verifier reads the btf_id stored in the insn[0]'s imm field and marks the dst_reg as PTR_TO_BTF_ID. The btf_id points to a VAR_KIND, which is encoded in btf_vminux by pahole. If the VAR is not of a struct type, the dst reg will be marked as PTR_TO_MEM instead of PTR_TO_BTF_ID and the mem_size is resolved to the size of the VAR's type.

From the VAR btf_id, the verifier can also read the address of the ksym's corresponding kernel var from kallsyms and use that to fill dst_reg.

Therefore, the proper functionality of pseudo_btf_id depends on (1) kallsyms and (2) the encoding of kernel global VARs in pahole, which should be available since pahole v1.18.

Looks good, few minor nits if you are going to post another version anyways. Assuming BPF offload change I mentioned is ok:

I'm not familiar with BPF offload stuff, so just flagging a change here: previously offloaded BPF programs, when passed to offload's verifier prep routine would already have ldimm64 processes, now they won't. This might not be an issue and not an expectation we want, but it would be nice if someone who knows something about offload stuff confirms that this is ok.
