* net: filter: move common defines into bpf_common.hAlexei Starovoitov2014-10-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | userspace programs that use eBPF instruction macros need to include two files: uapi/linux/filter.h and uapi/linux/bpf.h Move common macro definitions that are shared between classic BPF and eBPF into uapi/linux/bpf_common.h, so that user app can include only one bpf.h file Cc: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* bpf: verifier (add ability to receive verification log)Alexei Starovoitov2014-09-261-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | add optional attributes for BPF_PROG_LOAD syscall: union bpf_attr { struct { ... __u32 log_level; /* verbosity level of eBPF verifier */ __u32 log_size; /* size of user buffer */ __aligned_u64 log_buf; /* user supplied 'char *buffer' */ }; }; when log_level > 0 the verifier will return its verification log in the user supplied buffer 'log_buf' which can be used by program author to analyze why verifier rejected given program. 'Understanding eBPF verifier messages' section of Documentation/networking/filter.txt provides several examples of these messages, like the program: BPF_ST_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_10, -8, 0), BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_2, BPF_REG_10), BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_2, -8), BPF_LD_MAP_FD(BPF_REG_1, 0), BPF_CALL_FUNC(BPF_FUNC_map_lookup_elem), BPF_JMP_IMM(BPF_JEQ, BPF_REG_0, 0, 1), BPF_ST_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_0, 4, 0), BPF_EXIT_INSN(), will be rejected with the following multi-line message in log_buf: 0: (7a) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = 0 1: (bf) r2 = r10 2: (07) r2 += -8 3: (b7) r1 = 0 4: (85) call 1 5: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+1 R0=map_ptr R10=fp 6: (7a) *(u64 *)(r0 +4) = 0 misaligned access off 4 size 8 The format of the output can change at any time as verifier evolves.

* bpf: expand BPF syscall with program load/unloadAlexei Starovoitov2014-09-261-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | eBPF programs are similar to kernel modules. They are loaded by the user process and automatically unloaded when process exits. Each eBPF program is a safe run-to-completion set of instructions. eBPF verifier statically determines that the program terminates and is safe to execute. The following syscall wrapper can be used to load the program: int bpf_prog_load(enum bpf_prog_type prog_type, const struct bpf_insn *insns, int insn_cnt, const char *license) { union bpf_attr attr = { .prog_type = prog_type, .insns = ptr_to_u64(insns), .insn_cnt = insn_cnt, .license = ptr_to_u64(license), }; return bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, &attr, sizeof(attr)); } where 'insns' is an array of eBPF instructions and 'license' is a string that must be GPL compatible to call helper functions marked gpl_only Upon succesful load the syscall returns prog_fd. Use close(prog_fd) to unload the program. User space tests and examples follow in the later patches Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* bpf: add lookup/update/delete/iterate methods to BPF mapsAlexei Starovoitov2014-09-261-0/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'maps' is a generic storage of different types for sharing data between kernel and userspace. The maps are accessed from user space via BPF syscall, which has commands: - create a map with given type and attributes fd = bpf(BPF_MAP_CREATE, union bpf_attr *attr, u32 size) returns fd or negative error - lookup key in a given map referenced by fd err = bpf(BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM, union bpf_attr *attr, u32 size) using attr->map_fd, attr->key, attr->value returns zero and stores found elem into value or negative error - create or update key/value pair in a given map err = bpf(BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM, union bpf_attr *attr, u32 size) using attr->map_fd, attr->key, attr->value returns zero or negative error - find and delete element by key in a given map err = bpf(BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM, union bpf_attr *attr, u32 size) using attr->map_fd, attr->key - iterate map elements (based on input key return next_key) err = bpf(BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY, union bpf_attr *attr, u32 size) using attr->map_fd, attr->key, attr->next_key - close(fd) deletes the map Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* bpf: introduce BPF syscall and mapsAlexei Starovoitov2014-09-261-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | BPF syscall is a multiplexor for a range of different operations on eBPF. This patch introduces syscall with single command to create a map. Next patch adds commands to access maps. 'maps' is a generic storage of different types for sharing data between kernel and userspace. Userspace example: /* this syscall wrapper creates a map with given type and attributes * and returns map_fd on success. * use close(map_fd) to delete the map */ int bpf_create_map(enum bpf_map_type map_type, int key_size, int value_size, int max_entries) { union bpf_attr attr = { .map_type = map_type, .key_size = key_size, .value_size = value_size, .max_entries = max_entries }; return bpf(BPF_MAP_CREATE, &attr, sizeof(attr)); } 'union bpf_attr' is backwards compatible with future extensions.

* net: filter: split filter.h and expose eBPF to user spaceAlexei Starovoitov2014-09-091-0/+65
allow user space to generate eBPF programs uapi/linux/bpf.h: eBPF instruction set definition linux/filter.h: the rest This patch only moves macro definitions, but practically it freezes existing eBPF instruction set, though new instructions can still be added in the future. These eBPF definitions cannot go into uapi/linux/filter.h, since the names may conflict with existing applications.
