   *** DEADLOCK ***
  ======================================================

The bug is introduced by Commit f371b304f12e ("bpf/tracing: allow
user space to query prog array on the same tp") where copy_to_user,
which requires mm-&gt;mmap_sem, is called inside bpf_event_mutex lock.
At the same time, during perf_event file descriptor close,
mm-&gt;mmap_sem is held first and then subsequent
perf_event_detach_bpf_prog needs bpf_event_mutex lock.
Such a senario caused a deadlock.

As suggested by Daniel, moving copy_to_user out of the
bpf_event_mutex lock should fix the problem.

<title>bpf: Check attach type at prog load time</title>

== The problem ==

There are use-cases when a program of some type can be attached to
multiple attach points and those attach points must have different
permissions to access context or to call helpers.

E.g. context structure may have fields for both IPv4 and IPv6 but it
doesn't make sense to read from / write to IPv6 field when attach point
is somewhere in IPv4 stack.

Same applies to BPF-helpers: it may make sense to call some helper from
some attach point, but not from other for same prog type.

== The solution ==

Introduce `expected_attach_type` field in in `struct bpf_attr` for
`BPF_PROG_LOAD` command. If scenario described in "The problem" section
is the case for some prog type, the field will be checked twice:

1) At load time prog type is checked to see if attach type for it must
   be known to validate program permissions correctly. Prog will be
   rejected with EINVAL if it's the case and `expected_attach_type` is
   not specified or has invalid value.

2) At attach time `attach_type` is compared with `expected_attach_type`,
   if prog type requires to have one, and, if they differ, attach will
   be rejected with EINVAL.

The `expected_attach_type` is now available as part of `struct bpf_prog`
in both `bpf_verifier_ops-&gt;is_valid_access()` and
`bpf_verifier_ops-&gt;get_func_proto()` () and can be used to check context
accesses and calls to helpers correspondingly.

Initially the idea was discussed by Alexei Starovoitov &lt;ast@fb.com&gt; and
Daniel Borkmann &lt;daniel@iogearbox.net&gt; here:

<title>bpf: introduce BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT</title>

<content type='text'>
Introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT bpf program type to access
kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their raw form.

&gt;From bpf program point of view the access to the arguments look like:
struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args {
       __u64 args[0];
};

int bpf_prog(struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args *ctx)
{
  // program can read args[N] where N depends on tracepoint
  // and statically verified at program load+attach time
}

kprobe+bpf infrastructure allows programs access function arguments.
This feature allows programs access raw tracepoint arguments.

Similar to proposed 'dynamic ftrace events' there are no abi guarantees
to what the tracepoints arguments are and what their meaning is.
The program needs to type cast args properly and use bpf_probe_read()
helper to access struct fields when argument is a pointer.

For every tracepoint __bpf_trace_##call function is prepared.
In assembler it looks like:
(gdb) disassemble __bpf_trace_xdp_exception
Dump of assembler code for function __bpf_trace_xdp_exception:
   0xffffffff81132080 &lt;+0&gt;:     mov    %ecx,%ecx
   0xffffffff81132082 &lt;+2&gt;:     jmpq   0xffffffff811231f0 &lt;bpf_trace_run3&gt;

where

TRACE_EVENT(xdp_exception,
        TP_PROTO(const struct net_device *dev,
                 const struct bpf_prog *xdp, u32 act),

The above assembler snippet is casting 32-bit 'act' field into 'u64'
to pass into bpf_trace_run3(), while 'dev' and 'xdp' args are passed as-is.
All of ~500 of __bpf_trace_*() functions are only 5-10 byte long
and in total this approach adds 7k bytes to .text.

This approach gives the lowest possible overhead
while calling trace_xdp_exception() from kernel C code and
transitioning into bpf land.
Since tracepoint+bpf are used at speeds of 1M+ events per second
this is valuable optimization.

The new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN sys_bpf command is introduced
that returns anon_inode FD of 'bpf-raw-tracepoint' object.

The user space looks like:
// load bpf prog with BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT type
prog_fd = bpf_prog_load(...);
// receive anon_inode fd for given bpf_raw_tracepoint with prog attached
raw_tp_fd = bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd);

Ctrl-C of tracing daemon or cmdline tool that uses this feature
will automatically detach bpf program, unload it and
unregister tracepoint probe.

On the kernel side the __bpf_raw_tp_map section of pointers to
tracepoint definition and to __bpf_trace_*() probe function is used
to find a tracepoint with "xdp_exception" name and
corresponding __bpf_trace_xdp_exception() probe function
which are passed to tracepoint_probe_register() to connect probe
with tracepoint.

Addition of bpf_raw_tracepoint doesn't interfere with ftrace and perf
tracepoint mechanisms. perf_event_open() can be used in parallel
on the same tracepoint.
Multiple bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd) are permitted.
Each with its own bpf program. The kernel will execute
all tracepoint probes and all attached bpf programs.

In the future bpf_raw_tracepoints can be extended with
query/introspection logic.

Fun set of conflict resolutions here...

For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel
adds.  Trivially resolved.

In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the
function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in
'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed.

In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the
'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that
added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied
over here.

The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating
the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst
a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code.

The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial,
the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and
here are their notes:

====================

    Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc
    branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started
    being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial
    merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch
    and the for-next branch.  This merge resolves those conflicts and
    provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can
    be based.

    Conflicts:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524
            (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and
            commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support)
            add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the
            init/de-init functions used by mlx5.  To support the new
            representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch
            needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list
            added by the representors patch needed to be modified to
            match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup
            patch.
    Updates:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function
            prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function
            names as changed by cleanup patch
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/ib_rep.c - Update init/de-init
            stage list to match new order from cleanup patch

Commit 4bebdc7a85aa ("bpf: add helper bpf_perf_prog_read_value")
added helper bpf_perf_prog_read_value so that perf_event type program
can read event counter and enabled/running time.
This commit, however, introduced a bug which allows this helper
for tracepoint type programs. This is incorrect as bpf_perf_prog_read_value
needs to access perf_event through its bpf_perf_event_data_kern type context,
which is not available for tracepoint type program.

This patch fixed the issue by separating bpf_func_proto between tracepoint
and perf_event type programs and removed bpf_perf_prog_read_value
from tracepoint func prototype.

This commit adds new field "addr" to bpf_perf_event_data which could be
read and used by bpf programs attached to perf events. The value of the
field is copied from bpf_perf_event_data_kern.addr and contains the
address value recorded by specifying sample_type with PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR
when calling perf_event_open.

syzkaller tried to perform a prog query in perf_event_query_prog_array()
where struct perf_event_query_bpf had an ids_len of 1,073,741,353 and
thus causing a warning due to failed kcalloc() allocation out of the
bpf_prog_array_copy_to_user() helper. Given we cannot attach more than
64 programs to a perf event, there's no point in allowing huge ids_len.
Therefore, allow a buffer that would fix the maximum number of ids and
also add a __GFP_NOWARN to the temporary ids buffer.

<title>bpf: change fake_ip for bpf_trace_printk helper</title>

<id>eefa864a81501161c05b35f14197677c937e5b9a</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, for bpf_trace_printk helper, fake ip address 0x1
is used with comments saying that fake ip will not be printed.
This is indeed true for 4.12 and earlier version, but for
4.13 and later version, the ip address will be printed if
it cannot be resolved with kallsym. Running samples/bpf/tracex5
program and you will have the following in the debugfs
trace_pipe output:
  ...
  &lt;...&gt;-1819  [003] ....   443.497877: 0x00000001: mmap
  &lt;...&gt;-1819  [003] ....   443.498289: 0x00000001: syscall=102 (one of get/set uid/pid/gid)
  ...

The kernel commit changed this behavior is:

      tracing: Show address when function names are not found
  ...

This patch changed the comment and also altered the fake ip
address to 0x0 as users may think 0x1 has some special meaning
while it doesn't. The new output:
  ...
  &lt;...&gt;-1799  [002] ....    25.953576: 0: mmap
  &lt;...&gt;-1799  [002] ....    25.953865: 0: read(fd=0, buf=00000000053936b5, size=512)

<title>error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobe</title>

Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used
by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it
freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g.
livepatch, ftrace etc.
So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes.

Some differences has been made:

- "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures.
- BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to
  ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too.
- CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this
  feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports
  error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc.

Compare instruction pointer with original one on the
stack instead using per-cpu bpf_kprobe_override flag.

This patch also consolidates reset_current_kprobe() and
preempt_enable_no_resched() blocks. Those can be done
in one place.
