[PATCH] bpf: Ensure BPF programs testing skb context initialization

[PATCH] bpf: Ensure BPF programs testing skb context initialization

[Michal Switala]

This commit addresses an issue where a netdevice was found to be uninitialized.
To mitigate this case, the change ensures that BPF programs designed to test
skb context initialization thoroughly verify the availability of a fully
initialized context before execution.The root cause of a NULL ctx stems from
the initialization process in bpf_ctx_init(). This function returns NULL if
the user initializes the bpf_attr variables ctx_in and ctx_out with invalid
pointers or sets them to NULL. These variables are directly controlled by user
input, and if both are NULL, the context cannot be initialized, resulting in a
NULL ctx.

Something doesn't add up.
This syzbot report is about:

dev_map_enqueue+0x31/0x3e0 kernel/bpf/devmap.c:539
__xdp_do_redirect_frame net/core/filter.c:4397 [inline]
bpf_prog_test_run_xdp

while you're fixing bpf_prog_test_run_skb ?

Re: [PATCH] bpf: Ensure BPF programs testing skb context initialization

[Michal Switala]

Hi,

The reproducer calls the methods bpf_prog_test_run_xdp and
bpf_prog_test_run_skb. Both lead to the invocation of dev_map_enqueue, in the
case of the former, the backtrace is recorded in its entirety, whereas for the
latter it is not. I think the bug might be incorrectly reported on syzkaller, as
during GDB debugging, the problem occurred in functions called from
bpf_prog_test_run_skb. I also ran testing of my patch on syzkaller and the tests
passed.

Regards
Michal

The syzbot report is triggering from the bpf_prog_test_run_xdp. I agree with 
Alexei that fixing the bpf_prog_test_run_skb does not make sense. At least I 
don't see how dev_map_enqueue can be used from bpf_prog_test_run_skb.

It looks very similar to 
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/000000000000f6531b061494e696@google.com/. It has 
been fixed in commit 5bcf0dcbf906 ("xdp: use flags field to disambiguate 
broadcast redirect")

I tried the C repro. I can reproduce in the bpf tree also which should have the 
fix. I cannot reproduce in the bpf-next though.

Cc Toke who knows more details here.

Me neither.

Hmm, yeah, it does look kinda similar. Do you mean that the C repro from
this new report triggers the crash for you on the current -bpf tree?

I was able to repro in bpf tree ~two days ago but not now. The bpf tree has been 
fast forwarded and has the 6.10 changes. I just tried linux-stable/linux-6.9.y 
which has the fix in the commit 5bcf0dcbf906. The syzbot report (against the 
36534d3c5453) also has that fix.

In particular, the syzbot repro I tried:
