-Subject: [PATCH] bpf: fix branch offset adjustment on backjumps after patching
- ctx expansion
-
-When ctx access is used, the kernel often needs to expand/rewrite
-instructions, so after that patching, branch offsets have to be
-adjusted for both forward and backward jumps in the new eBPF program,
-but for backward jumps it fails to account the delta. Meaning, for
-example, if the expansion happens exactly on the insn that sits at
-the jump target, it doesn't fix up the back jump offset.
-
-Analysis on what the check in adjust_branches() is currently doing:
-
- /* adjust offset of jmps if necessary */
- if (i < pos && i + insn->off + 1 > pos)
- insn->off += delta;
- else if (i > pos && i + insn->off + 1 < pos)
- insn->off -= delta;
-
-First condition (forward jumps):
-
- Before: After:
-
- insns[0] insns[0]
- insns[1] <--- i/insn insns[1] <--- i/insn
- insns[2] <--- pos insns[P] <--- pos
- insns[3] insns[P] `------| delta
- insns[4] <--- target_X insns[P] `-----|
- insns[5] insns[3]
- insns[4] <--- target_X
- insns[5]
-
-First case is if we cross pos-boundary and the jump instruction was
-before pos. This is handeled correctly. I.e. if i == pos, then this
-would mean our jump that we currently check was the patchlet itself
-that we just injected. Since such patchlets are self-contained and
-have no awareness of any insns before or after the patched one, the
-delta is correctly not adjusted. Also, for the second condition in
-case of i + insn->off + 1 == pos, means we jump to that newly patched
-instruction, so no offset adjustment are needed. That part is correct.
-
-Second condition (backward jumps):
-
- Before: After:
-
- insns[0] insns[0]
- insns[1] <--- target_X insns[1] <--- target_X
- insns[2] <--- pos <-- target_Y insns[P] <--- pos <-- target_Y
- insns[3] insns[P] `------| delta
- insns[4] <--- i/insn insns[P] `-----|
- insns[5] insns[3]
- insns[4] <--- i/insn
- insns[5]
-
-Second interesting case is where we cross pos-boundary and the jump
-instruction was after pos. Backward jump with i == pos would be
-impossible and pose a bug somewhere in the patchlet, so the first
-condition checking i > pos is okay only by itself. However, i +
-insn->off + 1 < pos does not always work as intended to trigger the
-adjustment. It works when jump targets would be far off where the
-delta wouldn't matter. But, for example, where the fixed insn->off
-before pointed to pos (target_Y), it now points to pos + delta, so
-that additional room needs to be taken into account for the check.
-This means that i) both tests here need to be adjusted into pos + delta,
-and ii) for the second condition, the test needs to be <= as pos
-itself can be a target in the backjump, too.
