* tap, tcp, udp, icmp: Cut down on some oversized buffersStefano Brivio2022-03-291-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | The existing sizes provide no measurable differences in throughput and packet rates at this point. They were probably needed as batched implementations were not complete, but they can be decreased quite a bit now. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* treewide: Packet abstraction with mandatory boundary checksStefano Brivio2022-03-291-163/+168
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a packet abstraction providing boundary and size checks based on packet descriptors: packets stored in a buffer can be queued into a pool (without storage of its own), and data can be retrieved referring to an index in the pool, specifying offset and length. Checks ensure data is not read outside the boundaries of buffer and descriptors, and that packets added to a pool are within the buffer range with valid offset and indices. This implies a wider rework: usage of the "queueing" part of the abstraction mostly affects tap_handler_{passt,pasta}() functions and their callees, while the "fetching" part affects all the guest or tap facing implementations: TCP, UDP, ICMP, ARP, NDP, DHCP and DHCPv6 handlers.

* tcp: Rework timers to use timerfd instead of periodic bitmap scanStefano Brivio2022-03-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With a lot of concurrent connections, the bitmap scan approach is not really sustainable. Switch to per-connection timerfd timers, set based on events and on two new flags, ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE and ACK_TO_TAP_DUE. Timers are added to the common epoll list, and implement the existing timeouts. While at it, drop the CONN_ prefix from flag names, otherwise they get quite long, and fix the logic to decide if a connection has a local, possibly unreachable endpoint: we shouldn't go through the rest of tcp_conn_from_tap() if we reset the connection due to a successful bind(2), and we'll get EACCES if the port number is low.

* passt, pasta: Namespace-based sandboxing, defer seccomp policy applicationStefano Brivio2022-02-211-31/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To reach (at least) a conceptually equivalent security level as implemented by --enable-sandbox in slirp4netns, we need to create a new mount namespace and pivot_root() into a new (empty) mountpoint, so that passt and pasta can't access any filesystem resource after initialisation. While at it, also detach IPC, PID (only for passt, to prevent vulnerabilities based on the knowledge of a target PID), and UTS namespaces. With this approach, if we apply the seccomp filters right after the configuration step, the number of allowed syscalls grows further. To prevent this, defer the application of seccomp policies after the initialisation phase, before the main loop, that's where we expect bad things to happen, potentially. This way, we get back to 22 allowed syscalls for passt and 34 for pasta, on x86_64. While at it, move #syscalls notes to specific code paths wherever it conceptually makes sense. We have to open all the file handles we'll ever need before sandboxing: - the packet capture file can only be opened once, drop instance numbers from the default path and use the (pre-sandbox) PID instead - /proc/net/tcp{,v6} and /proc/net/udp{,v6}, for automatic detection of bound ports in pasta mode, are now opened only once, before sandboxing, and their handles are stored in the execution context - the UNIX domain socket for passt is also bound only once, before sandboxing: to reject clients after the first one, instead of closing the listening socket, keep it open, accept and immediately discard new connection if we already have a valid one Clarify the (unchanged) behaviour for --netns-only in the man page. To actually make passt and pasta processes run in a separate PID namespace, we need to unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) before forking to background (if configured to do so). Introduce a small daemon() implementation, __daemon(), that additionally saves the PID file before forking. While running in foreground, the process itself can't move to a new PID namespace (a process can't change the notion of its own PID): mention that in the man page. For some reason, fork() in a detached PID namespace causes SIGTERM and SIGQUIT to be ignored, even if the handler is still reported as SIG_DFL: add a signal handler that just exits. We can now drop most of the pasta_child_handler() implementation, that took care of terminating all processes running in the same namespace, if pasta started a shell: the shell itself is now the init process in that namespace, and all children will terminate once the init process exits. Issuing 'echo $$' in a detached PID namespace won't return the actual namespace PID as seen from the init namespace: adapt demo and test setup scripts to reflect that.

* passt: Address new clang-tidy warnings from LLVM 13.0.1Stefano Brivio2022-01-301-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | clang-tidy from LLVM 13.0.1 reports some new warnings from these checkers: - altera-unroll-loops, altera-id-dependent-backward-branch: ignore for the moment being, add a TODO item - bugprone-easily-swappable-parameters: ignore, nothing to do about those - readability-function-cognitive-complexity: ignore for the moment being, add a TODO item - altera-struct-pack-align: ignore, alignment is forced in protocol headers - concurrency-mt-unsafe: ignore for the moment being, add a TODO item Fix bugprone-implicit-widening-of-multiplication-result warnings, though, that's doable and they seem to make sense.

* passt, tap: Daemonise once socket is ready without waiting for connectionStefano Brivio2022-01-281-17/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing behaviour is not really practical: an automated agent in charge of starting both qemu and passt would need to fork itself to start passt, because passt won't fork to background until qemu connects, and the agent needs to unblock to start qemu. Instead of waiting for a connection to daemonise, do it right away as soon as a socket is available: that can be considered an initialised state already.

* seccomp: Add a number of alternate and per-arch syscallsStefano Brivio2022-01-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Depending on the C library, but not necessarily in all the functions we use, statx() might be used instead of stat(), getdents() instead of getdents64(), readlinkat() instead of readlink(), openat() instead of open(). On aarch64, it's clone() and not fork(), and dup3() instead of dup2() -- just allow the existing alternative instead of dealing with per-arch selections. Since glibc commit 9a7565403758 ("posix: Consolidate fork implementation"), we need to allow set_robust_list() for fork()/clone(), even in a single-threaded context. On some architectures, epoll_pwait() is provided instead of epoll_wait(), but never both. Same with newfstat() and fstat(), sigreturn() and rt_sigreturn(), getdents64() and getdents(), readlink() and readlinkat(), unlink() and unlinkat(), whereas pipe() might not be available, but pipe2() always is, exclusively or not. Seen on Fedora 34: newfstatat() is used on top of fstat(). syslog() is an actual system call on some glibc/arch combinations, instead of a connect()/send() implementation. On ppc64 and ppc64le, _llseek(), recv(), send() and getuid() are used. For ppc64 only: ugetrlimit() for the getrlimit() implementation, plus sigreturn() and fcntl64(). On s390x, additionally, we need to allow socketcall() (on top of socket()), and sigreturn() also for passt (not just for pasta). Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, messages would be passed to protocol handlers in a single batch only if they happened to be dequeued in a row.

* icmp: Work around possible failure on bind() due to e.g. broken SELinux policyStefano Brivio2021-07-261-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we can't bind() ping sockets, the echo identifier sent out from the socket won't be the original one seen from the tap. Binding a ping socket doesn't require any security capability, but it might still fail due to a broken SELinux policy, see for example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1848929 Track the ICMP echo identifier as part of the epoll reference for the socket and replace it in the reply on mismatch.

* tap: Don't override address observed from guest with our own notion of itStefano Brivio2021-07-261-15/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | If a tap protocol handler doesn't consume the full batch of packets in one go, we already overrode the destination address in the packet buffer with the address which is configured at start. If we re-enter the tap handler, we shouldn't use the address from the packet buffers anymore to set the observed address of the guest: that's not the address observed from the guest, it's the configured one now.

* checksum: Introduce AVX2 implementation, unify helpersStefano Brivio2021-07-261-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Brivio2021-07-171-15/+575
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

* udp: Connection tracking for ephemeral, local ports, and related fixesStefano Brivio2021-04-291-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As we support UDP forwarding for packets that are sent to local ports, we actually need some kind of connection tracking for UDP. While at it, this commit introduces a number of vaguely related fixes for issues observed while trying this out. In detail: - implement an explicit, albeit minimalistic, connection tracking for UDP, to allow usage of ephemeral ports by the guest and by the host at the same time, by binding them dynamically as needed, and to allow mapping address changes for packets with a loopback address as destination - set the guest MAC address whenever we receive a packet from tap instead of waiting for an ARP request, and set it to broadcast on start, otherwise DHCPv6 might not work if all DHCPv6 requests time out before the guest starts talking IPv4 - split context IPv6 address into address we assign, global or site address seen on tap, and link-local address seen on tap, and make sure we use the addresses we've seen as destination (link-local choice depends on source address). Similarly, for IPv4, split into address we assign and address we observe, and use the address we observe as destination - introduce a clock_gettime() syscall right after epoll_wait() wakes up, so that we can remove all the other ones and pass the current timestamp to tap and socket handlers -- this is additionally needed by UDP to time out bindings to ephemeral ports and mappings between loopback address and a local address - rename sock_l4_add() to sock_l4(), no semantic changes intended - include <arpa/inet.h> in passt.c before kernel headers so that we can use <netinet/in.h> macros to check IPv6 address types, and remove a duplicate <linux/ip.h> inclusion Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* passt: Spare some syscalls, add some optimisations from profilingStefano Brivio2021-04-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid a bunch of syscalls on forwarding paths by: - storing minimum and maximum file descriptor numbers for each protocol, fall back to SO_PROTOCOL query only on overlaps - allocating a larger receive buffer -- this can result in more coalesced packets than sendmmsg() can take (UIO_MAXIOV, i.e. 1024), so make sure we don't exceed that within a single call to protocol tap handlers - nesting the handling loop in tap_handler() in the receive loop, so that we have better chances of filling our receive buffer in fewer calls - skipping the recvfrom() in the UDP handler on EPOLLERR -- there's nothing to be done in that case and while at it: - restore the 20ms timer interval for periodic (TCP) events, I accidentally changed that to 100ms in an earlier commit - attempt using SO_ZEROCOPY for UDP -- if it's not available, sendmmsg() will succeed anyway - fix the handling of the status code from sendmmsg(), if it fails, we'll try to discard the first message, hence return 1 from the UDP handler Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* passt: New design and implementation with native Layer 4 socketsStefano Brivio2021-02-161-0/+136
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.
