bpf: Check the helper function is valid in get_helper_proto

2025-10-02T11:44:08Z

[ Upstream commit e4414b01c1cd9887bbde92f946c1ba94e40d6d64 ] kernel test robot reported verifier bug [1] where the helper func pointer could be NULL due to disabled config option. As Alexei suggested we could check on that in get_helper_proto directly. Marking tail_call helper func with BPF_PTR_POISON, because it is unused by design.

bpf: Tell memcg to use allow_spinning=false path in bpf_timer_init()

2025-09-19T14:35:44Z

[ Upstream commit 6d78b4473cdb08b74662355a9e8510bde09c511e ] Currently, calling bpf_map_kmalloc_node() from __bpf_async_init() can cause various locking issues; see the following stack trace (edited for style) as one example: ...

The above was reproduced on bpf-next (b338cf849ec8) by modifying ./tools/sched_ext/scx_flatcg.bpf.c to call bpf_timer_init() during ops.runnable(), and hacking the memcg accounting code a bit to make a bpf_timer_init() call more likely to raise an MEMCG_MAX event. We have also run into other similar variants (both internally and on bpf-next), including double-acquiring cgroup_file_kn_lock, the same worker_pool::lock, etc. As suggested by Shakeel, fix this by using __GFP_HIGH instead of GFP_ATOMIC in __bpf_async_init(), so that e.g. if try_charge_memcg() raises an MEMCG_MAX event, we call __memcg_memory_event() with @allow_spinning=false and avoid calling cgroup_file_notify() there.

bpf: Allow fall back to interpreter for programs with stack size <= 512

2025-09-19T14:35:44Z

[ Upstream commit df0cb5cb50bd54d3cd4d0d83417ceec6a66404aa ] OpenWRT users reported regression on ARMv6 devices after updating to latest HEAD, where tcpdump filter: tcpdump "not ether host 3c37121a2b3c and not ether host 184ecbca2a3a \ and not ether host 14130b4d3f47 and not ether host f0f61cf440b7 \ and not ether host a84b4dedf471 and not ether host d022be17e1d7 \ and not ether host 5c497967208b and not ether host 706655784d5b" fails with warning: "Kernel filter failed: No error information" when using config: # CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not set CONFIG_BPF_JIT_DEFAULT_ON=y The issue arises because commits: 1. "bpf: Fix array bounds error with may_goto" changed default runtime to __bpf_prog_ret0_warn when jit_requested = 1 2. "bpf: Avoid __bpf_prog_ret0_warn when jit fails" returns error when jit_requested = 1 but jit fails This change restores interpreter fallback capability for BPF programs with stack size <= 512 bytes when jit fails.

bpf: Fix out-of-bounds dynptr write in bpf_crypto_crypt

2025-09-19T14:35:44Z

[ Upstream commit f9bb6ffa7f5ad0f8ee0f53fc4a10655872ee4a14 ] Stanislav reported that in bpf_crypto_crypt() the destination dynptr's size is not validated to be at least as large as the source dynptr's size before calling into the crypto backend with 'len = src_len'. This can result in an OOB write when the destination is smaller than the source. Concretely, in mentioned function, psrc and pdst are both linear buffers fetched from each dynptr: psrc = __bpf_dynptr_data(src, src_len); [...] pdst = __bpf_dynptr_data_rw(dst, dst_len); [...] err = decrypt ? ctx->type->decrypt(ctx->tfm, psrc, pdst, src_len, piv) : ctx->type->encrypt(ctx->tfm, psrc, pdst, src_len, piv); The crypto backend expects pdst to be large enough with a src_len length that can be written. Add an additional src_len > dst_len check and bail out if it's the case. Note that these kfuncs are accessible under root privileges only.

bpf: Fix oob access in cgroup local storage

2025-09-09T16:58:01Z

[ Upstream commit abad3d0bad72a52137e0c350c59542d75ae4f513 ] Lonial reported that an out-of-bounds access in cgroup local storage can be crafted via tail calls. Given two programs each utilizing a cgroup local storage with a different value size, and one program doing a tail call into the other. The verifier will validate each of the indivial programs just fine. However, in the runtime context the bpf_cg_run_ctx holds an bpf_prog_array_item which contains the BPF program as well as any cgroup local storage flavor the program uses. Helpers such as bpf_get_local_storage() pick this up from the runtime context: ctx = container_of(current->bpf_ctx, struct bpf_cg_run_ctx, run_ctx); storage = ctx->prog_item->cgroup_storage[stype]; if (stype == BPF_CGROUP_STORAGE_SHARED) ptr = &READ_ONCE(storage->buf)->data[0]; else ptr = this_cpu_ptr(storage->percpu_buf); For the second program which was called from the originally attached one, this means bpf_get_local_storage() will pick up the former program's map, not its own. With mismatching sizes, this can result in an unintended out-of-bounds access. To fix this issue, we need to extend bpf_map_owner with an array of storage_cookie[] to match on i) the exact maps from the original program if the second program was using bpf_get_local_storage(), or ii) allow the tail call combination if the second program was not using any of the cgroup local storage maps.

2025-09-09T16:58:01Z

[ Upstream commit fd1c98f0ef5cbcec842209776505d9e70d8fcd53 ] Given this is only relevant for BPF tail call maps, it is adding up space and penalizing other map types. We also need to extend this with further objects to track / compare to. Therefore, lets move this out into a separate structure and dynamically allocate it only for BPF tail call maps.

bpf: Make reg_not_null() true for CONST_PTR_TO_MAP

2025-08-20T16:30:39Z

[ Upstream commit 5534e58f2e9bd72b253d033ee0af6e68eb8ac96b ] When reg->type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, it can not be null. However the verifier explores the branches under rX == 0 in check_cond_jmp_op() even if reg->type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, because it was not checked for in reg_not_null(). Fix this by adding CONST_PTR_TO_MAP to the set of types that are considered non nullable in reg_not_null(). An old "unpriv: cmp map pointer with zero" selftest fails with this change, because now early out correctly triggers in check_cond_jmp_op(), making the verification to pass. In practice verifier may allow pointer to null comparison in unpriv, since in many cases the relevant branch and comparison op are removed as dead code. So change the expected test result to __success_unpriv.

bpf: Forget ranges when refining tnum after JSET

2025-08-20T16:30:32Z

[ Upstream commit 6279846b9b2532e1b04559ef8bd0dec049f29383 ] Syzbot reported a kernel warning due to a range invariant violation on the following BPF program. 0: call bpf_get_netns_cookie 1: if r0 == 0 goto 2: if r0 & Oxffffffff goto The issue is on the path where we fall through both jumps. That path is unreachable at runtime: after insn 1, we know r0 != 0, but with the sign extension on the jset, we would only fallthrough insn 2 if r0 == 0. Unfortunately, is_branch_taken() isn't currently able to figure this out, so the verifier walks all branches. The verifier then refines the register bounds using the second condition and we end up with inconsistent bounds on this unreachable path: 1: if r0 == 0 goto r0: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0xffffffffffffffff) 2: if r0 & 0xffffffff goto r0 before reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0) r0 after reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0] var_off=(0, 0) Improving the range refinement for JSET to cover all cases is tricky. We also don't expect many users to rely on JSET given LLVM doesn't generate those instructions. So instead of improving the range refinement for JSETs, Eduard suggested we forget the ranges whenever we're narrowing tnums after a JSET. This patch implements that approach.
