Commit f6b1b3bf0d5f681631a293cfe1ca934b81716f1e upstream.
One of the ugly leftovers from the early eBPF days is that div/mod operations based on registers have a hard-coded src_reg == 0 test in the interpreter as well as in JIT code generators that would return from the BPF program with exit code 0. This was basically adopted from cBPF interpreter for historical reasons.
There are multiple reasons why this is very suboptimal and prone to bugs. To name one: the return code mapping for such abnormal program exit of 0 does not always match with a suitable program type's exit code mapping. For example, '0' in tc means action 'ok' where the packet gets passed further up the stack, which is just undesirable for such cases (e.g. when implementing policy) and also does not match with other program types.
While trying to work out an exception handling scheme, I also noticed that programs crafted like the following will currently pass the verifier:
0: (bf) r6 = r1 1: (85) call pc+8 caller: R6=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0,call_-1 callee: frame1: R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0,call_1 10: (b4) (u32) r2 = (u32) 0 11: (b4) (u32) r3 = (u32) 1 12: (3c) (u32) r3 /= (u32) r2 13: (61) r0 = *(u32 *)(r1 +76) 14: (95) exit returning from callee: frame1: R0_w=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) R1=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R2_w=inv0 R3_w=inv(id=0,umax_value=4294967295,var_off=(0x0; 0xffffffff)) R10=fp0,call_1 to caller at 2: R0_w=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) R6=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0,call_-1
from 14 to 2: R0=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=0,imm=0) R6=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0,call_-1 2: (bf) r1 = r6 3: (61) r1 = *(u32 *)(r1 +80) 4: (bf) r2 = r0 5: (07) r2 += 8 6: (2d) if r2 > r1 goto pc+1 R0=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=8,imm=0) R1=pkt_end(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R2=pkt(id=0,off=8,r=8,imm=0) R6=ctx(id=0,off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0,call_-1 7: (71) r0 = *(u8 *)(r0 +0) 8: (b7) r0 = 1 9: (95) exit
from 6 to 8: safe processed 16 insns (limit 131072), stack depth 0+0
Basically what happens is that in the subprog we make use of a div/mod by 0 exception and in the 'normal' subprog's exit path we just return skb->data back to the main prog. This has the implication that the verifier thinks we always get a pkt pointer in R0 while we still have the implicit 'return 0' from the div as an alternative unconditional return path earlier. Thus, R0 then contains 0, meaning back in the parent prog we get the address range of [0x0, skb->data_end] as read and writeable. Similar can be crafted with other pointer register types.
Since i) BPF_ABS/IND is not allowed in programs that contain BPF to BPF calls (and generally it's also disadvised to use in native eBPF context), ii) unknown opcodes don't return zero anymore, iii) we don't return an exception code in dead branches, the only last missing case affected and to fix is the div/mod handling.
What we would really need is some infrastructure to propagate exceptions all the way to the original prog unwinding the current stack and returning that code to the caller of the BPF program. In user space such exception handling for similar runtimes is typically implemented with setjmp(3) and longjmp(3) as one possibility which is not available in the kernel, though (kgdb used to implement it in kernel long time ago). I implemented a PoC exception handling mechanism into the BPF interpreter with porting setjmp()/longjmp() into x86_64 and adding a new internal BPF_ABRT opcode that can use a program specific exception code for all exception cases we have (e.g. div/mod by 0, unknown opcodes, etc). While this seems to work in the constrained BPF environment (meaning, here, we don't need to deal with state e.g. from memory allocations that we would need to undo before going into exception state), it still has various drawbacks: i) we would need to implement the setjmp()/longjmp() for every arch supported in the kernel and for x86_64, arm64, sparc64 JITs currently supporting calls, ii) it has unconditional additional cost on main program entry to store CPU register state in initial setjmp() call, and we would need some way to pass the jmp_buf down into ___bpf_prog_run() for main prog and all subprogs, but also storing on stack is not really nice (other option would be per-cpu storage for this, but it also has the drawback that we need to disable preemption for every BPF program types). All in all this approach would add a lot of complexity.
Another poor-man's solution would be to have some sort of additional shared register or scratch buffer to hold state for exceptions, and test that after every call return to chain returns and pass R0 all the way down to BPF prog caller. This is also problematic in various ways: i) an additional register doesn't map well into JITs, and some other scratch space could only be on per-cpu storage, which, again has the side-effect that this only works when we disable preemption, or somewhere in the input context which is not available everywhere either, and ii) this adds significant runtime overhead by putting conditionals after each and every call, as well as implementation complexity.
Yet another option is to teach verifier that div/mod can return an integer, which however is also complex to implement as verifier would need to walk such fake 'mov r0,<code>; exit;' sequeuence and there would still be no guarantee for having propagation of this further down to the BPF caller as proper exception code. For parent prog, it is also is not distinguishable from a normal return of a constant scalar value.
The approach taken here is a completely different one with little complexity and no additional overhead involved in that we make use of the fact that a div/mod by 0 is undefined behavior. Instead of bailing out, we adapt the same behavior as on some major archs like ARMv8 [0] into eBPF as well: X div 0 results in 0, and X mod 0 results in X. aarch64 and aarch32 ISA do not generate any traps or otherwise aborts of program execution for unsigned divides. I verified this also with a test program compiled by gcc and clang, and the behavior matches with the spec. Going forward we adapt the eBPF verifier to emit such rewrites once div/mod by register was seen. cBPF is not touched and will keep existing 'return 0' semantics. Given the options, it seems the most suitable from all of them, also since major archs have similar schemes in place. Given this is all in the realm of undefined behavior, we still have the option to adapt if deemed necessary and this way we would also have the option of more flexibility from LLVM code generation side (which is then fully visible to verifier). Thus, this patch i) fixes the panic seen in above program and ii) doesn't bypass the verifier observations.
