2026-08-20x86/bpf: Make arch_bpf_trampoline_size allocate from EXECMEM_MODULE_DATAMike Rapoport (Microsoft)1-3/+5
Jiri Olsa reports slowdown of tracing_multi benchmark that allocates huge number of trampolines [1]. The slowdown caused by extra protection changes in execmem_alloc_rw() and execmem_free(). With ROX caches enabled, all execmem allocations except EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA are ROX after the allocation. execmem_alloc_rw() temporarily sets them to W+NX and execmem_free() resets them back to ROX. The only user of bpf_jit_alloc_exec_rw() is x86::arch_bpf_trampoline_size() that only needs a temporary writable buffer in the modules address space. On x86 executable memory and module data are constrained to the same address range, so x86::arch_bpf_trampoline_size() can directly use execmem_alloc(EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA) Replace the call to bpf_jit_alloc_exec_rw() with a call to execmem_alloc(EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA) in x86::arch_bpf_trampoline_size() and drop bpf_jit_alloc_exec_rw() helper.

2026-08-14bpf, x86: Fix per-CPU address resolution into an extended registerVineet Gupta1-1/+1
The destination of the per-CPU address MOV is encoded in ModRM.reg, which is extended by REX.R, but the REX prefix is built with add_1mod(), which sets REX.B. REX.B extends ModRM.rm and SIB.base, and this instruction addresses memory as disp32 with no base, so the bit has no effect at all and the high register bit is simply lost. Every is_ereg() destination therefore resolves to the wrong register, picking whichever one shares the low three bits: R5 -> RAX R7 -> RBP R8 -> RSI R9 -> RDI With BPF_REG_5, whose reg2hex is 0, the emitted 65 49 03 04 25 <off> add %gs:<off>,%rax adds the per-CPU offset to RAX rather than R8. The destination keeps the unadjusted address and RAX is clobbered, so the program goes on to dereference a pointer that was never made per-CPU: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000607e386a8894 RIP: bpf_prog_707837aafd2aa9ae_update_percpu_data+0x93/0xc9 Call Trace: __bpf_prog_test_run_raw_tp+0x2dc/0x7d0 __flush_smp_call_function_queue+0x1e9/0xc80 Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt R5 is the mildest of the four, aliasing a scratch register and faulting at the store. R7 aliases RBP and would corrupt the frame pointer, R8 and R9 alias the argument registers. Use add_2mod() so the register goes through REX.R, matching how add_2reg() places it in ModRM.reg and how emit_priv_frame_ptr() hardcodes 0x4c for the same instruction with R9. Encodings for the non-extended registers are unchanged. Problem showed up when trying to resurrect BPF_GCC CI (selftests built with BPF_GCC). This has gone unnoticed because clang reloads the address into R1 before each per-CPU access, so the destination is never an extended register. GCC keeps several per-CPU addresses live at once, and test_progs-bpf_gcc panics the kernel in global_percpu_data/init, where the address of a .percpu variable ends up in R5.

2026-08-12bpf, x86: Clear fetch destination on faulting arena atomicDaniel Borkmann1-8/+27
populate_extable() encodes "there is no destination register to clear" as DONT_CLEAR in the DST_REG field of the exception table metadata, and later ex_handler_bpf() then reuses that very value to derive the direction it reports the fault with is_write = (reg == DONT_CLEAR). The two coincide for a plain load or store, but not for a RMW carrying BPF_FETCH. Such an atomic writes memory, so it has to be reported as a WRITE, and it also reads the old value into a register, src_reg for BPF_ADD | BPF_FETCH and BPF_XCHG, r0 for BPF_CMPXCHG, so that register has to be cleared on fault. A single DONT_CLEAR cannot say both, and the store branch picks it unconditionally: [...] } else { arena_reg = reg2pt_regs[dst_reg]; fixup_reg = DONT_CLEAR; } [...] The reported direction is therefore right, but on a fault over an unmapped arena page the fetch destination keeps whatever it held before the atomic, where every other BPF_PROBE_* access delivers 0. Give the metadata its own ARENA_WRITE bit so that the reported direction no longer depends on whether there is a register to clear, and fill DST_REG in from bpf_atomic_load_reg(). BPF_{AND,OR,XOR} | BPF_FETCH need no handling here, bpf_jit_supports_insn() already rejects those in the arena.

2026-08-08bpf, x86: Fix stack-passed arguments for indirect trampolinesTejun Heo1-7/+8
save_args() reads stack-passed arguments relative to rbp assuming two return addresses sit between the saved rbp and the arguments, which holds when the trampoline is entered through the fentry call from a traced function. An indirect trampoline is called through a function pointer, so only the caller's return address is on the stack and the arguments start at rbp + 16, not rbp + 24. Every stack-passed argument of a struct_ops callback with more than six argument slots is read one slot off. This has gone unnoticed because no in-tree struct_ops member passes arguments on the stack. The jmp-entry form already accounts for having a single return address; treat BPF_TRAMP_F_INDIRECT the same way.

2026-08-08bpf, x86: Convert struct_ops arena arguments in the trampolineTejun Heo1-6/+51
Implement the struct_ops arena argument conversion on x86. save_args() receives the arena base from bpf_tramp_arena_base() and consults the btf_func_model argument flags as it copies each native argument into the BPF ctx, routing a marked argument through RAX: movl %esrc, %eax /* truncate and clear the upper 32 bits */ subl $base_lo, %eax movq %rax, ctx_slot A nullable argument tests the full 64-bit kernel pointer first: movq %rsrc, %rax testq %rax, %rax jz 1f subl $base_lo, %eax 1: movq %rax, ctx_slot The 32-bit subtraction is sufficient since (u32)(kaddr - base) == (u32)kaddr - (u32)base, and it clears the upper half as the JITs require of arena pointer registers. Stack-passed arguments already reload through RAX, so only the subtraction (and the NULL test) is inserted there. Keep arena and nullable classification in btf_func_model. bpf_tramp_arena_base() returns a base only for a single-program struct_ops indirect trampoline; other trampolines pass zero and perform no conversion. The size probe reruns the same emission with the same model and nodes, so the image size matches by construction. With both the kfunc and struct_ops directions implemented, flip bpf_jit_supports_arena_args() on for x86.

2026-08-08bpf, x86: JIT __arena kfunc argument rebasingTejun Heo1-0/+50
Implement arena argument rebasing for kfunc calls on x86. R12 already holds kern_vm_start whenever the prog has an arena, so each tagged argument costs two instructions emitted right before the call: movl %eN, %eN /* truncate, clear the upper 32 bits */ addq %r12, %rN A nullable argument tests the truncated value and jumps over the add: movl %eN, %eN testl %eN, %eN jz 1f addq %r12, %rN 1: addq carries a REX prefix for every argument register and is always three bytes, so the jz displacement is constant. The sequence is native code generated after constant blinding has run on the BPF instruction stream, so blinding never sees the rebase and needs no special handling. bpf_jit_supports_arena_args() is not flipped yet; that happens when the struct_ops trampoline side is in place as well.

2026-08-07bpf, x86: Fix exception table metadata for arena load-acquireDaniel Borkmann1-1/+6
A load-acquire from an arena pointer is converted to BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC and gets an exception table entry, but the entry is filled in as if it were a store, since populate_extable() decides based on instruction class alone and a load-acquire is of BPF_STX class: if (BPF_CLASS(insn->code) == BPF_LDX) { arena_reg = reg2pt_regs[src_reg]; fixup_reg = reg2pt_regs[dst_reg]; } else { arena_reg = reg2pt_regs[dst_reg]; fixup_reg = DONT_CLEAR; } For a load-acquire dst_reg holds the loaded value and src_reg holds the address, so both assignments in the else branch are wrong. On a fault over an unmapped arena page ex_handler_bpf() then: - computes the reported address from the value register instead of the address register - reports the access as a WRITE, since it derives the direction from fixup_reg == DONT_CLEAR - leaves dst_reg untouched, so the program continues with a stale value instead of the 0 that BPF_PROBE_* loads deliver The access itself is emitted correctly, emit_atomic_ld_st_index() uses src_reg as the address, so this is a broken probe contract and a wrong diagnostic rather than a memory safety issue. Use bpf_atomic_is_load_acq() helper so a load-acquire takes the load path.

2026-06-07bpf: Add struct bpf_tramp_node objectJiri Olsa1-27/+27
Adding struct bpf_tramp_node to decouple the link out of the trampoline attachment info. At the moment the object for attaching bpf program to the trampoline is 'struct bpf_tramp_link': struct bpf_tramp_link { struct bpf_link link; struct hlist_node tramp_hlist; u64 cookie; } The link holds the bpf_prog pointer and forces one link - one program binding logic. In following changes we want to attach program to multiple trampolines but we want to keep just one bpf_link object. Splitting struct bpf_tramp_link into: struct bpf_tramp_link { struct bpf_link link; struct bpf_tramp_node node; }; struct bpf_tramp_node { struct bpf_link *link; struct hlist_node tramp_hlist; u64 cookie; }; The 'struct bpf_tramp_link' defines standard single trampoline link and 'struct bpf_tramp_node' is the attachment trampoline object with pointer to the bpf_link object. This will allow us to define link for multiple trampolines, like: struct bpf_tracing_multi_link { struct bpf_link link; ... int nodes_cnt; struct bpf_tracing_multi_node nodes[] __counted_by(nodes_cnt); }; Cc: Hengqi Chen <hengqi.chen@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260606123955.345967-9-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
2026-05-17bpf,x86: Fix exception unwinding with outgoing stack argumentsYonghong Song1-0/+2
When a main program with exception_boundary has outgoing stack arguments (e.g. from calling subprogs with >5 args), bpf_throw() fails to correctly restore callee-saved registers, causing a kernel crash. The x86 JIT allocates the outgoing stack arg area below the callee-saved registers via 'sub rsp, outgoing_rsp' in the prologue. When bpf_throw() unwinds, it captures the main program's sp (which includes this outgoing area) and passes it to the exception callback. The callback gets rsp and rbp, followed by pop_callee_regs, but rsp points into the outgoing arg area rather than the callee-saved registers, so the pops restore garbage values. Returning to the kernel with corrupted callee-saved registers causes a crash. Fix this by adjusting the sp (adding stack_arg_sp_adjust) passed to the exception callback, so it points to the bottom of the callee-saved registers instead of the outgoing arg area. When stack_arg_sp_adjust is 0 (the common case), this is a no-op.

2026-05-13bpf,x86: Implement JIT support for stack argumentsYonghong Song1-6/+143
Add x86_64 JIT support for BPF functions and kfuncs with more than 5 arguments. The extra arguments are passed through a stack area addressed by register r11 (BPF_REG_PARAMS) in BPF bytecode, which the JIT translates to native code. The JIT follows the x86-64 calling convention for both BPF-to-BPF and kfunc calls: - Arg 6 is passed in the R9 register - Args 7+ are passed on the stack Incoming arg 6 (BPF r11+8) is translated to a MOV from R9 rather than a memory load. Incoming args 7+ (BPF r11+16, r11+24, ...) map directly to [rbp + 16], [rbp + 24], ..., matching the x86-64 stack layout after CALL + PUSH RBP, so no offset adjustment is needed. tail_call_reachable is rejected by the verifier and priv_stack is disabled by the JIT when stack args exist, so R9 is always available. When BPF bytecode writes to the arg-6 stack slot (offset -8), the JIT emits a MOV into R9 instead of a memory store. Outgoing args 7+ are placed at [rsp] in a pre-allocated area below callee-saved registers, using: native_off = outgoing_arg_base - outgoing_rsp - bpf_off - 16 The native x86_64 stack layout with stack arguments: high address +-------------------------+ | incoming stack arg N | [rbp + 16 + (N-7)*8] (from caller) | ... | | incoming stack arg 7 | [rbp + 16] +-------------------------+ | return address | [rbp + 8] | saved rbp | [rbp] +-------------------------+ | BPF program stack | (round_up(stack_depth, 8) bytes) +-------------------------+ | callee-saved regs | (r12, rbx, r13, r14, r15 as needed) +-------------------------+ | outgoing arg M | [rsp + (M-7)*8] | ... | | outgoing arg 7 | [rsp] +-------------------------+ rsp low address Acked-by: Puranjay Mohan <puranjay@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song <yonghong.song@linux.dev> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260513045122.2393118-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Now all constants blinding calls are moved into the verifier, except the cbpf and lib/test_bpf.c cases.

2026-04-16bpf: Move constants blinding out of arch-specific JITsXu Kuohai2-65/+11
During the JIT stage, constants blinding rewrites instructions but only rewrites the private instruction copy of the JITed subprog, leaving the global env->prog->insnsi and env->insn_aux_data untouched. This causes a mismatch between subprog instructions and the global state, making it difficult to use the global data in the JIT. To avoid this mismatch, and given that all arch-specific JITs already support constants blinding, move it to the generic verifier code, and switch to rewrite the global env->prog->insnsi with the global states adjusted, as other rewrites in the verifier do. This removes the constants blinding calls in each JIT, which are largely duplicated code across architectures. Since constants blinding is only required for JIT, and there are two JIT entry functions, jit_subprogs() for BPF programs with multiple subprogs and bpf_prog_select_runtime() for programs with no subprogs, move the constants blinding invocation into these two functions. In the verifier path, bpf_patch_insn_data() is used to keep global verifier auxiliary data in sync with patched instructions. A key question is whether this global auxiliary data should be restored on the failure path. Besides instructions, bpf_patch_insn_data() adjusts: - prog->aux->poke_tab - env->insn_array_maps - env->subprog_info - env->insn_aux_data For prog->aux->poke_tab, it is only used by JIT or only meaningful after JIT succeeds, so it does not need to be restored on the failure path. For env->insn_array_maps, when JIT fails, programs using insn arrays are rejected by bpf_insn_array_ready() due to missing JIT addresses. Hence, env->insn_array_maps is only meaningful for JIT and does not need to be restored. For subprog_info, if jit_subprogs fails and CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not enabled, kernel falls back to interpreter. In this case, env->subprog_info is used to determine subprogram stack depth. So it must be restored on failure. For env->insn_aux_data, it is freed by clear_insn_aux_data() at the end of bpf_check(). Before freeing, clear_insn_aux_data() loops over env->insn_aux_data to release jump targets recorded in it. The loop uses env->prog->len as the array length, but this length no longer matches the actual size of the adjusted env->insn_aux_data array after constants blinding. To address it, a simple approach is to keep insn_aux_data as adjusted after failure, since it will be freed shortly, and record its actual size for the loop in clear_insn_aux_data(). But since clear_insn_aux_data() uses the same index to loop over both env->prog->insnsi and env->insn_aux_data, this approach results in incorrect index for the insnsi array. So an alternative approach is adopted: clone the original env->insn_aux_data before blinding and restore it after failure, similar to env->prog. For classic BPF programs, constants blinding works as before since it is still invoked from bpf_prog_select_runtime().

Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>

However, they can have different opcode if we want to replace a "call" insn with a "jmp" insn. Therefore, add the new function parameter "old_t" along with the "new_t", which are used to indicate the old and new poke type. Meanwhile, adjust the implement of bpf_arch_text_poke() for all the archs. "BPF_MOD_NOP" is added to make the code more readable.

2025-11-05bpf, x86: add support for indirect jumpsAnton Protopopov1-0/+3
Add support for a new instruction BPF_JMP|BPF_X|BPF_JA, SRC=0, DST=Rx, off=0, imm=0 which does an indirect jump to a location stored in Rx. The register Rx should have type PTR_TO_INSN. This new type assures that the Rx register contains a value (or a range of values) loaded from a correct jump table – map of type instruction array. For example, for a C switch LLVM will generate the following code: 0: r3 = r1 # "switch (r3)" 1: if r3 > 0x13 goto +0x666 # check r3 boundaries 2: r3 <<= 0x3 # adjust to an index in array of addresses 3: r1 = 0xbeef ll # r1 is PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE, r1->map_ptr=M 5: r1 += r3 # r1 inherits boundaries from r3 6: r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0x0) # r1 now has type INSN_TO_PTR 7: gotox r1 # jit will generate proper code Here the gotox instruction corresponds to one particular map. This is possible however to have a gotox instruction which can be loaded from different maps, e.g. 0: r1 &= 0x1 1: r2 <<= 0x3 2: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_1 4: r3 += r2 5: if r1 == 0x0 goto +0x4 6: r1 <<= 0x3 7: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_2 9: r3 += r1 A: r1 = *(u64 *)(r3 + 0x0) B: gotox r1 # jump to target loaded from M_1 or M_2 During check_cfg stage the verifier will collect all the maps which point to inside the subprog being verified. When building the config, the high 16 bytes of the insn_state are used, so this patch (theoretically) supports jump tables of up to 2^16 slots. During the later stage, in check_indirect_jump, it is checked that the register Rx was loaded from a particular instruction array.

2025-11-05bpf, x86: add new map type: instructions arrayAnton Protopopov1-0/+9
On bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) syscall user-supplied BPF programs are translated by the verifier into "xlated" BPF programs. During this process the original instructions offsets might be adjusted and/or individual instructions might be replaced by new sets of instructions, or deleted. Add a new BPF map type which is aimed to keep track of how, for a given program, the original instructions were relocated during the verification. Also, besides keeping track of the original -> xlated mapping, make x86 JIT to build the xlated -> jitted mapping for every instruction listed in an instruction array. This is required for every future application of instruction arrays: static keys, indirect jumps and indirect calls. A map of the BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY type must be created with a u32 keys and value of size 8. The values have different semantics for userspace and for BPF space. For userspace a value consists of two u32 values – xlated and jitted offsets. For BPF side the value is a real pointer to a jitted instruction. On map creation/initialization, before loading the program, each element of the map should be initialized to point to an instruction offset within the program. Before the program load such maps should be made frozen. After the program verification xlated and jitted offsets can be read via the bpf(2) syscall. If a tracked instruction is removed by the verifier, then the xlated offset is set to (u32)-1 which is considered to be too big for a valid BPF program offset. One such a map can, obviously, be used to track one and only one BPF program. If the verification process was unsuccessful, then the same map can be re-used to verify the program with a different log level. However, if the program was loaded fine, then such a map, being frozen in any case, can't be reused by other programs even after the program release. Example. Consider the following original and xlated programs: Original prog: Xlated prog: 0: r1 = 0x0 0: r1 = 0 1: *(u32 *)(r10 - 0x4) = r1 1: *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1 2: r2 = r10 2: r2 = r10 3: r2 += -0x4 3: r2 += -4 4: r1 = 0x0 ll 4: r1 = map[id:88] 6: call 0x1 6: r1 += 272 7: r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0) 8: if r0 >= 0x1 goto pc+3 9: r0 <<= 3 10: r0 += r1 11: goto pc+1 12: r0 = 0 7: r6 = r0 13: r6 = r0 8: if r6 == 0x0 goto +0x2 14: if r6 == 0x0 goto pc+4 9: call 0x76 15: r0 = 0xffffffff8d2079c0 17: r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +0) 10: *(u64 *)(r6 + 0x0) = r0 18: *(u64 *)(r6 +0) = r0 11: r0 = 0x0 19: r0 = 0x0 12: exit 20: exit An instruction array map, containing, e.g., instructions [0,4,7,12] will be translated by the verifier to [0,4,13,20]. A map with index 5 (the middle of 16-byte instruction) or indexes greater than 12 (outside the program boundaries) would be rejected. The functionality provided by this patch will be extended in consequent patches to implement BPF Static Keys, indirect jumps, and indirect calls.

The failure of this check only results in a security mitigation being applied, slightly affecting performance of the compiled BPF program. It doesn't result in a failed syscall, an thus auditing a failed LSM permission check for it is unwanted. For example with SELinux, it causes a denial to be reported for confined processes running as root, which tends to be flagged as a problem to be fixed in the policy. Yet dontauditing or allowing CAP_SYS_ADMIN to the domain may not be desirable, as it would allow/silence also other checks - either going against the principle of least privilege or making debugging potentially harder. Fix it by changing it from capable() to ns_capable_noaudit(), which instructs the LSMs to not audit the resulting denials.

2025-09-04x86,ibt: Use UDB instead of 0xEAPeter Zijlstra1-3/+3
A while ago [0] FineIBT started using the 0xEA instruction to raise #UD. All existing parts will generate #UD in 64bit mode on that instruction. However; Intel/AMD have not blessed using this instruction, it is on their 'reserved' opcode list for future use. Peter Anvin worked the committees and got use of 0xD6 blessed, it shall be called UDB (per the next SDM or so), and it being a single byte instruction is easy to slip into a single byte immediate -- as is done by this very patch. Reworking the FineIBT code to use UDB wasn't entirely trivial. Notably the FineIBT-BHI1 case ran out of bytes. In order to condense the encoding some it was required to move the hash register from R10D to EAX (thanks hpa!). Per the x86_64 ABI, RAX is used to pass the number of vector registers for vararg function calls -- something that should not happen in the kernel. More so, the kernel is built with -mskip-rax-setup, which should leave RAX completely unused, allowing its re-use. [ For BPF; while the bpf2bpf tail-call uses RAX in its calling convention, that does not use CFI and is unaffected. Only the 'regular' C->BPF transition is covered by CFI. ] The ENDBR poison value is changed from 'OSP NOP3' to 'NOPL -42(%RAX)', this is basically NOP4 but with UDB as its immediate. As such it is still a non-standard NOP value unique to prior ENDBR sites, but now also provides UDB. Per Agner Fog's optimization guide, Jcc is assumed not-taken. That is, the expected path should be the fallthrough case for improved throughput. Since the preamble now relies on the ENDBR poison to provide UDB, the code is changed to write the poison right along with the initial preamble -- this is possible because the ITS mitigation already disabled IBT over rewriting the CFI scheme. The scheme in detail: Preamble: FineIBT FineIBT-BHI1 FineIBT-BHI __cfi_\func: __cfi_\func: __cfi_\func: endbr endbr endbr subl $0x12345678, %eax subl $0x12345678, %eax subl $0x12345678, %eax jne.d32,np \func+3 cmovne %rax, %rdi cs cs call __bhi_args_N jne.d8,np \func+3 \func: \func: \func: nopl -42(%rax) nopl -42(%rax) nopl -42(%rax) Notably there are 7 bytes available after the SUBL; this enables the BHI1 case to fit without the nasty overlapping case it had previously. The !BHI case uses Jcc.d32,np to consume all 7 bytes without the need for an additional NOP, while the BHI case uses CS padding to align the CALL with the end of the preamble such that it returns to \func+0. Caller: FineIBT Paranoid-FineIBT fineibt_caller: fineibt_caller: mov $0x12345678, %eax mov $0x12345678, %eax lea -10(%r11), %r11 cmp -0x11(%r11), %eax nop5 cs lea -0x10(%r11), %r11 retpoline: retpoline: cs call __x86_indirect_thunk_r11 jne fineibt_caller+0xd call *%r11 nop Notably this is before apply_retpolines() which will fix up the retpoline call -- since all parts with IBT also have eIBRS (lets ignore ITS).

In preparation of figuring out the closest program that led to the current point in the kernel, implement a function that scans through the stack trace and finds out the closest BPF program when walking down the stack trace. Special care needs to be taken to skip over kernel and BPF subprog frames. We basically scan until we find a BPF main prog frame. The assumption is that if a program calls into us transitively, we'll hit it along the way. If not, we end up returning NULL. Contextually the function will be used in places where we know the program may have called into us. Due to reliance on arch_bpf_stack_walk(), this function only works on x86 with CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC, arm64, and s390. Remove the warning from arch_bpf_stack_walk as well since we call it outside bpf_throw() context.

Pull x86 ITS mitigation from Dave Hansen: "Mitigate Indirect Target Selection (ITS) issue. I'd describe this one as a good old CPU bug where the behavior is _obviously_ wrong, but since it just results in bad predictions it wasn't wrong enough to notice. Well, the researchers noticed and also realized that thus bug undermined a bunch of existing indirect branch mitigations. Thus the unusually wide impact on this one. Details: ITS is a bug in some Intel CPUs that affects indirect branches including RETs in the first half of a cacheline. Due to ITS such branches may get wrongly predicted to a target of (direct or indirect) branch that is located in the second half of a cacheline. Researchers at VUSec found this behavior and reported to Intel. Affected processors: - Cascade Lake, Cooper Lake, Whiskey Lake V, Coffee Lake R, Comet Lake, Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and Rocket Lake. Scope of impact: - Guest/host isolation: When eIBRS is used for guest/host isolation, the indirect branches in the VMM may still be predicted with targets corresponding to direct branches in the guest. - Intra-mode using cBPF: cBPF can be used to poison the branch history to exploit ITS. Realigning the indirect branches and RETs mitigates this attack vector. - User/kernel: With eIBRS enabled user/kernel isolation is *not* impacted by ITS. - Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB): Due to this bug indirect branches may be predicted with targets corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB. This will be fixed in the microcode.

RETs in the lower half of cacheline may be affected by ITS bug, specifically when the RSB-underflows. Use ITS-safe return thunk for such RETs. RETs that are not patched: - RET in retpoline sequence does not need to be patched, because the sequence itself fills an RSB before RET. - RET in Call Depth Tracking (CDT) thunks __x86_indirect_{call|jump}_thunk and call_depth_return_thunk are not patched because CDT by design prevents RSB-underflow. - RETs in .init section are not reachable after init. - RETs that are explicitly marked safe with ANNOTATE_UNRET_SAFE.

2025-05-09x86/its: Add support for ITS-safe indirect thunkPawan Gupta1-1/+4
Due to ITS, indirect branches in the lower half of a cacheline may be vulnerable to branch target injection attack. Introduce ITS-safe thunks to patch indirect branches in the lower half of cacheline with the thunk. Also thunk any eBPF generated indirect branches in emit_indirect_jump(). Below category of indirect branches are not mitigated: - Indirect branches in the .init section are not mitigated because they are discarded after boot. - Indirect branches that are explicitly marked retpoline-safe. Note that retpoline also mitigates the indirect branches against ITS. This is because the retpoline sequence fills an RSB entry before RET, and it does not suffer from RSB-underflow part of the ITS.

2025-05-06x86/bhi: Do not set BHI_DIS_S in 32-bit modePawan Gupta1-2/+3
With the possibility of intra-mode BHI via cBPF, complete mitigation for BHI is to use IBHF (history fence) instruction with BHI_DIS_S set. Since this new instruction is only available in 64-bit mode, setting BHI_DIS_S in 32-bit mode is only a partial mitigation. Do not set BHI_DIS_S in 32-bit mode so as to avoid reporting misleading mitigated status. With this change IBHF won't be used in 32-bit mode, also remove the CONFIG_X86_64 check from emit_spectre_bhb_barrier().

2025-05-06x86/bpf: Add IBHF call at end of classic BPFDaniel Sneddon1-0/+19
Classic BPF programs can be run by unprivileged users, allowing unprivileged code to execute inside the kernel. Attackers can use this to craft branch history in kernel mode that can influence the target of indirect branches. BHI_DIS_S provides user-kernel isolation of branch history, but cBPF can be used to bypass this protection by crafting branch history in kernel mode. To stop intra-mode attacks via cBPF programs, Intel created a new instruction Indirect Branch History Fence (IBHF). IBHF prevents the predicted targets of subsequent indirect branches from being influenced by branch history prior to the IBHF. IBHF is only effective while BHI_DIS_S is enabled. Add the IBHF instruction to cBPF jitted code's exit path. Add the new fence when the hardware mitigation is enabled (i.e., X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_HW is set) or after the software sequence (X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_LOOP) is being used in a virtual machine. Note that X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_HW and X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_LOOP are mutually exclusive, so the JIT compiler will only emit the new fence, not the SW sequence, when X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_HW is set. Hardware that enumerates BHI_NO basically has BHI_DIS_S protections always enabled, regardless of the value of BHI_DIS_S. Since BHI_DIS_S doesn't protect against intra-mode attacks, enumerate BHI bug on BHI_NO hardware as well.

2025-05-06x86/bpf: Call branch history clearing sequence on exitDaniel Sneddon1-0/+31
Classic BPF programs have been identified as potential vectors for intra-mode Branch Target Injection (BTI) attacks. Classic BPF programs can be run by unprivileged users. They allow unprivileged code to execute inside the kernel. Attackers can use unprivileged cBPF to craft branch history in kernel mode that can influence the target of indirect branches. Introduce a branch history buffer (BHB) clearing sequence during the JIT compilation of classic BPF programs. The clearing sequence is the same as is used in previous mitigations to protect syscalls. Since eBPF programs already have their own mitigations in place, only insert the call on classic programs that aren't run by privileged users.

2025-03-15bpf, x86: Support load-acquire and store-release instructionsPeilin Ye1-17/+82
Recently we introduced BPF load-acquire (BPF_LOAD_ACQ) and store-release (BPF_STORE_REL) instructions. For x86-64, simply implement them as regular BPF_LDX/BPF_STX loads and stores. The verifier always rejects misaligned load-acquires/store-releases (even if BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set), so emitted MOV* instructions are guaranteed to be atomic. Arena accesses are supported. 8- and 16-bit load-acquires are zero-extending (i.e., MOVZBQ, MOVZWQ). Rename emit_atomic{,_index}() to emit_atomic_rmw{,_index}() to make it clear that they only handle read-modify-write atomics, and extend their @atomic_op parameter from u8 to u32, since we are starting to use more than the lowest 8 bits of the 'imm' field.

2025-03-15bpf: Introduce load-acquire and store-release instructionsPeilin Ye1-0/+4
Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags: #define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100 #define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110 A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm' field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100). Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110). Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the kernel test robot). An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends. Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set). As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF instruction (assuming little-endian): db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0)) opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ Similarly, a 16-bit BPF store-release: cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00 store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2) opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL In arch/{arm64,s390,x86}/net/bpf_jit_comp.c, have bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) return false for the new instructions, until the corresponding JIT compiler supports them in arena.
