* Makefile: Ugly hack to get a "plain" Markdown version of READMEStefano Brivio2022-08-201-3/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Distribution packages reasonably expect to have a human-readable Markdown version of the README under /usr/share/doc/, but all we have right now is a heavily web-oriented version. Introduce a ugly hack to strip web-oriented parts from the current README and install it. It should probably work the other way around: a human-readable README could be used as a source for the web page. But cgit needs a file that's in the tree, not something that can be built, and https://passt.top/ is based on cgit. It should eventually be doable to work around this in cgit, instead.

* valgrind needs futexDavid Gibson2022-07-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Some versions of valgrind (such as the version on my Fedora laptop - valgrind-3.19.0-3.fc36.x86_64) use futexes. But futex is currently not allowed in the seccomp filter, even with the extra calls added for valgrind builds. Add it, to avoid spurious valgrind failures.

* passt: Allow exit_group() system call in seccomp profilesStefano Brivio2022-07-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | We handle SIGQUIT and SIGTERM calling exit(), which is usually implemented with the exit_group() system call. If we don't allow exit_group(), we'll get a SIGSYS while handling SIGQUIT and SIGTERM, which means a misleading non-zero exit code.

* Clean up passt.pid fileDavid Gibson2022-07-141-1/+2
| | | | | | | | If the tests are interrupted at the right point a passt.pid file can be left over. Clean it up with "make clean" and add it to .gitignore so it doesn't get accidentally committed. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Add cleaner line-by-line reading primitivesDavid Gibson2022-07-061-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two places in passt need to read files line by line (one parsing resolv.conf, the other parsing /proc/net/*. They can't use fgets() because in glibc that can allocate memory. Instead they use an implementation line_read() in util.c. This has some problems: * It has two completely separate modes of operation, one buffering and one not, the relation between these and how they're activated is subtle and confusing * At least in non-buffered mode, it will mishandle an empty line, folding them onto the start of the next non-empty line * In non-buffered mode it will use lseek() which prevents using this on non-regular files (we don't need that at present, but it's a surprising limitation) * It has a lot of difficult to read pointer mangling Add a new cleaner implementation of allocation-free line-by-line reading in lineread.c. This one always buffers, using a state structure to keep track of what we need. This is larger than I'd like, but it turns out handling all the edge cases of line-by-line reading in C is surprisingly hard. This just adds the code, subsequent patches will change the existing users of line_read() to the new implementation. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Makefile: Don't create extraneous -.s fileDavid Gibson2022-06-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | In order to probe availability of certain features the Makefile test compiles a handful of tiny snippets, feeding those in from stdin. However in one case - the one for -fstack-protector - it forgets to redirect the output to stdout, meaning it creates a stray '-.s' file when make is invoked (even make clean).

* Makefile: Tweak $(RM) usageDavid Gibson2022-06-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | The use of rm commands in the clean and uninstall targets adds an explicit leading - to ignore errors. However the built-in RM variable in make is actually "rm -f" which already ignores errors, so the - isn't neccessary. Also replace ${RM} with $(RM) which is the more conventional form in Makefiles.

* Makefile: Use $(BIN) and $(MANPAGES) variable to simplify several targetsDavid Gibson2022-06-181-14/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several places which explicitly list the various generated binaries, even though a $(BIN) variable already lists them. There are several more places that list all the manpage files, introduce a $(MANPAGES) variable to remove that repetition as well. Tweak the generation of pasta.1 as a link to passt.1 so it's not just made as a side effect of the pasta target.

* Makefile: Avoid using wildcard sourcesDavid Gibson2022-06-181-15/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The passt/pasta Makefile makes fairly heavy use of GNU make's $(wildcard) function to locate the sources and headers to build. Using wildcards for the things to compile is usually a bad idea though: if somehow you end up with a .c or .h file in your tree you didn't expect it can misbuild in an exceedingly confusing way. In particular this can sometimes happen if switching between releases / branches where files have been added or removed without 100% cleaning the tree. It also makes life a bit complicated if building multiple different binaries in the same tree: we already have some rather awkward $(filter-out) constructions to avoid including qrap.c in the passt build. Replace use of $(wildcard) with the more idiomatic approach of defining variables listing all the relevant source files then using that throughout. In the rule for seccomp.h there was also a bare "*.c" which caused make to always rebuild that target. Fix that as well. Similarly, seccomp.sh uses a wildcard to locate the sources, which is unwise for the same reasons. Make it take the sources to examine on the command line instead, and have the Makefile pass them in from the same variables. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Makefile: Suppress unusedStructMember Cppcheck warning in dhcp.cStefano Brivio2022-06-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New from Cppcheck 2.8: all the fields of struct msg that are not directly manipulated are now reported as unused, which is kind of correct as those fields are used as a blob "copied" from request to response and not as separate fields. However, keeping the message composition explicit is probably desirable, and adding inline suppressions makes the whole thing rather unreadable, so just suppress unusedStructMember warnings for dhcp.c, while also adding a suppression for unmatched suppressions to keep earlier versions of Cppcheck happy.

* passt, pasta: Run-time selection of AVX2 buildStefano Brivio2022-02-281-10/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Build-time selection of AVX2 flags and routines is not practical for distributions, but limiting AVX2 usage to checksum routines with specific run-time detection doesn't allow for easy performance gains from auto-vectorisation of batched packet handling routines. For x86_64, build non-AVX2 and AVX2 binaries, and implement a simple wrapper replacing the current executable with the AVX2 build if it's available, and if AVX2 is supported by the current CPU.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcpi_bytes_acked and tcpi_min_rtt are only available on recent kernel versions: provide fall-back paths (incurring some grade of performance penalty). Support for getrandom() was introduced in Linux 3.17 and glibc 2.25: provide an alternate mechanism for that as well, reading from /dev/random. Also check if NETLINK_GET_STRICT_CHK is defined before using it: it's not strictly needed, we'll filter out irrelevant results from netlink anyway. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some distributions, on ppc64, ulimit -s returns 'unlimited': add a reasonable default, and also make sure ulimit is invoked using the default shell, which should ensure ulimit is actually implemented. Also note that AUDIT_ARCH doesn't follow closely the naming reported by 'uname -m': convert for i386 and ppc as needed. While at it, move inclusion of seccomp.h after util.h, the former is less generic (cosmetic/clang-tidy only). Older kernel headers might lack a definition for AUDIT_ARCH_PPC64LE: define that explicitly if it's not available. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* checksum: Introduce AVX2 implementation, unify helpersStefano Brivio2021-07-261-2/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide an AVX2-based function using compiler intrinsics for TCP/IP-style checksums. The load/unpack/add idea and implementation is largely based on code from BESS (the Berkeley Extensible Software Switch) licensed as 3-Clause BSD, with a number of modifications to further decrease pipeline stalls and to minimise cache pollution. This speeds up considerably data paths from sockets to tap interfaces, decreasing overhead for checksum computation, with 16-64KiB packet buffers, from approximately 11% to 7%. The rest is just syscalls at this point. While at it, provide convenience targets in the Makefile for avx2, avx2_debug, and debug targets -- these simply add target-specific CFLAGS to the build.

* passt: Add PASTA mode, major reworkStefano Brivio2021-07-171-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PASTA (Pack A Subtle Tap Abstraction) provides quasi-native host connectivity to an otherwise disconnected, unprivileged network and user namespace, similarly to slirp4netns. Given that the implementation is largely overlapping with PASST, no separate binary is built: 'pasta' (and 'passt4netns' for clarity) both link to 'passt', and the mode of operation is selected depending on how the binary is invoked. Usage example: $ unshare -rUn # echo $$ 1871759 $ ./pasta 1871759 # From another terminal # udhcpc -i pasta0 2>/dev/null # ping -c1 pasta.pizza PING pasta.pizza (64.190.62.111) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 64.190.62.111 (64.190.62.111): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=34.6 ms --- pasta.pizza ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 34.575/34.575/34.575/0.000 ms # ping -c1 spaghetti.pizza PING spaghetti.pizza(2606:4700:3034::6815:147a (2606:4700:3034::6815:147a)) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 2606:4700:3034::6815:147a (2606:4700:3034::6815:147a): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=29.0 ms --- spaghetti.pizza ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 28.967/28.967/28.967/0.000 ms This entails a major rework, especially with regard to the storage of tracked connections and to the semantics of epoll(7) references. Indexing TCP and UDP bindings merely by socket proved to be inflexible and unsuitable to handle different connection flows: pasta also provides Layer-2 to Layer-2 socket mapping between init and a separate namespace for local connections, using a pair of splice() system calls for TCP, and a recvmmsg()/sendmmsg() pair for UDP local bindings. For instance, building on the previous example: # ip link set dev lo up # iperf3 -s $ iperf3 -c ::1 -Z -w 32M -l 1024k -P2 | tail -n4 [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 52.3 GBytes 44.9 Gbits/sec 283 sender [SUM] 0.00-10.43 sec 52.3 GBytes 43.1 Gbits/sec receiver iperf Done. epoll(7) references now include a generic part in order to demultiplex data to the relevant protocol handler, using 24 bits for the socket number, and an opaque portion reserved for usage by the single protocol handlers, in order to track sockets back to corresponding connections and bindings. A number of fixes pertaining to TCP state machine and congestion window handling are also included here. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It might be impractical to pass options to qrap when using libvirt, because the <emulator/> tag expects a path to an executable, without further arguments.

* passt: New design and implementation with native Layer 4 socketsStefano Brivio2021-02-161-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a reimplementation, partially building on the earlier draft, that uses L4 sockets (SOCK_DGRAM, SOCK_STREAM) instead of SOCK_RAW, providing L4-L2 translation functionality without requiring any security capability. Conceptually, this follows the design presented at: https://gitlab.com/abologna/kubevirt-and-kvm/-/blob/master/Networking.md The most significant novelty here comes from TCP and UDP translation layers. In particular, the TCP state and translation logic follows the intent of being minimalistic, without reimplementing a full TCP stack in either direction, and synchronising as much as possible the TCP dynamic and flows between guest and host kernel. Another important introduction concerns addressing, port translation and forwarding. The Layer 4 implementations now attempt to bind on all unbound ports, in order to forward connections in a transparent way. While at it: - the qemu 'tap' back-end can't be used as-is by qrap anymore, because of explicit checks now introduced in qemu to ensure that the corresponding file descriptor is actually a tap device. For this reason, qrap now operates on a 'socket' back-end type, accounting for and building the additional header reporting frame length - provide a demo script that sets up namespaces, addresses and routes, and starts the daemon. A virtual machine started in the network namespace, wrapped by qrap, will now directly interface with passt and communicate using Layer 4 sockets provided by the host kernel.
