Sun Jian says: ==================== bpf: Fix generic devmap egress skb sharing Generic XDP devmap multi redirect can leave cloned skbs sharing packet data. When a devmap egress program mutates packet data, another destination sharing the same data may observe that mutation. Fix this by making cloned skbs private before running the generic devmap egress program. The private copy is made in dev_map_generic_redirect() so dev_map_bpf_prog_run_skb() can keep returning the XDP action directly. Add selftest coverage for the last-destination case, where the final destination runs on the original skb while earlier destinations use cloned skbs. The test records the source MAC observed by an earlier destination and checks that it is neither the sentinel value left in the result map nor the MAC written by the final destination. --- v5: - Move the skb_copy() check back to dev_map_generic_redirect() to keep dev_map_bpf_prog_run_skb() returning only the XDP action. - Preserve mac_len after skb_copy(). - Use __be64 temporary values when updating mac_map from userspace. - Initialize rx_mac with a sentinel in the last-destination test instead of relying on -ENOENT for ARRAY map lookups. - Adjust the last-destination test topology so the checked earlier destination is not the ingress/source veth. - Split the last-destination check into two assertions: one for store_mac_1 updating rx_mac and one for detecting last-destination rewrite leakage. v4: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260611080850.536996-1-sun.jian.kdev@gmail.com/T/#mf830f03d362f33e0941d1b0e425169698fce76e5 - Preserve mac_len after skb_copy(). - Separate errno return from XDP action output in dev_map_bpf_prog_run_skb(). - Zero-initialize net_config in the new selftest. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260611043317.512843-1-sun.jian.kdev@gmail.com/ - Split the kernel fix and selftest into separate patches. - Move the private-copy logic into dev_map_bpf_prog_run_skb(). - Use deterministic DEVMAP_HASH keys in the last-destination selftest. - Fix the Fixes tag. v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/08c35c70-a59e-4e0e-91db-22b5ec30b611@linux.dev/ - Move the private-copy step into dev_map_generic_redirect() so the last-destination path is covered as well. - Use skb_copy() instead of skb_unshare() to keep caller ownership unchanged on allocation failure. - Add a generic XDP last-destination selftest case. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/CABFUUZFimdrZdq=NWi+N-0sJZWvMwY=f4iF6-3TVMS8=m07Zmw@mail.gmail.com/ ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260612114032.244616-1-sun.jian.kdev@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
