Subject: [PATCH v5 bpf-next 2/4] bpf: Consider all mem_types compatible for map_{key,value} args
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2022 09:07:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221020160721.4030492-2-davemarchevsky@fb.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221020160721.4030492-1-davemarchevsky@fb.com>
After the previous patch, which added PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC type
map_key_value_types, the only difference between map_key_value_types and
mem_types sets is PTR_TO_BUF and PTR_TO_MEM, which are in the latter set
but not the former.
Helpers which expect ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY or ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE
already effectively expect a valid blob of arbitrary memory that isn't
necessarily explicitly associated with a map. When validating a
PTR_TO_MAP_{KEY,VALUE} arg, the verifier expects meta->map_ptr to have
already been set, either by an earlier ARG_CONST_MAP_PTR arg, or custom
logic like that in process_timer_func or process_kptr_func.
So let's get rid of map_key_value_types and just use mem_types for those
args.
This has the effect of adding PTR_TO_BUF and PTR_TO_MEM to the set of
compatible types for ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY and ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE.
PTR_TO_BUF is used by various bpf_iter implementations to represent a
chunk of valid r/w memory in ctx args for iter prog.
PTR_TO_MEM is used by networking, tracing, and ringbuf helpers to
represent a chunk of valid memory. The PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC
type added in previous commmit is specific to ringbuf helpers.
Presence or absence of MEM_ALLOC doesn't change the validity of using
PTR_TO_MEM as a map_{key,val} input.

v1 -> v5: lore.kernel.org/bpf/20220912101106.2765921-2-davemarchevsky@fb.com
* This patch was dropped in v2 as I had no concrete usecase for
PTR_TO_BUF and PTR_TO_MEM w/o MEM_ALLOC. Andrii encouraged me to
re-add the patch as we both share desire to eventually cleanup all
these separate "valid chunk of memory" types. Starting to treat them
similarly is a good step in that direction.
* A usecase for PTR_TO_BUF is now demonstrated in patch 4 of this
series.
* PTR_TO_MEM w/o MEM_ALLOC is returned by bpf_{this,per}_cpu_ptr
helpers via RET_PTR_TO_MEM_OR_BTF_ID, but in both cases the return
type is also tagged MEM_RDONLY, which map helpers don't currently
accept (see patch 4 summary). So no selftest for this specific
case is added in the series, but by logic in this patch summary
there's no reason to treat it differently.
