* util: Introduce hton*_constant() in place of #ifdefsDavid Gibson2023-01-231-26/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | We have several places where we have fairly ugly #ifdefs on __BYTE_ORDER where we need network order values in a constant expression (so we can't use htons() or htonl()). We can do this more cleanly by using a single __BYTE_ORDER ifdef to define htons_constant() and htonl_constant() macros, then using those in all the other places.

* udp: Pre-populate msg_names with local addressDavid Gibson2023-01-131-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | udp_splice_namebuf is now used only for spliced sending, and so it is only ever populated with the localhost address, either IPv4 or IPv6. So, replace the awkward initialization in udp_sock_handler_splice() with statically initialized versions for IPv4 and IPv6. We then just need to update the port number in udp_sock_handler_splice().

* util, pasta: Add do_clone() wrapper around __clone2() and clone()Stefano Brivio2022-11-161-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Spotted in Debian's buildd logs: on ia64, clone(2) is not available: the glibc wrapper is named __clone2() and it takes, additionally, the size of the stack area passed by the caller. Add a do_clone() wrapper handling the different cases, and also taking care of pointing the child's stack in the middle of the allocated area: on PA-RISC (hppa), handled by clone(), the stack grows up, and on ia64 the stack grows down, but the register backing store grows up -- and I think it might be actually used here.

* Use typing to reduce chances of IPv4 endianness errorsDavid Gibson2022-11-041-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We recently corrected some errors handling the endianness of IPv4 addresses. These are very easy errors to make since although we mostly store them in network endianness, we sometimes need to manipulate them in host endianness. To reduce the chances of making such mistakes again, change to always using a (struct in_addr) instead of a bare in_addr_t or uint32_t to store network endian addresses. This makes it harder to accidentally do arithmetic or comparisons on such addresses as if they were host endian. We introduce a number of IN4_IS_ADDR_*() helpers to make it easier to directly work with struct in_addr values. This has the additional benefit of making the IPv4 and IPv6 paths more visually similar. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* util: Set NS_FN_STACK_SIZE to one eighth of ulimit-reported maximum stack size2022_10_22.b68da10Stefano Brivio2022-10-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ...instead of one fourth. On the main() -> conf() -> nl_sock_init() call path, LTO from gcc 12 on (at least) x86_64 decides to inline... everything: nl_sock_init() is effectively part of main(), after commit 3e2eb4337bc0 ("conf: Bind inbound ports with CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE before isolate_user()"). This means we exceed the maximum stack size, and we get SIGSEGV, under any condition, at start time, as reported by Andrea on a recent build for CentOS Stream 9. The calculation of NS_FN_STACK_SIZE, which is the stack size we reserve for clones, was previously obtained by dividing the maximum stack size by two, to avoid an explicit check on architecture (on PA-RISC, also known as hppa, the stack grows up, so we point the clone to the middle of this area), and then further divided by two to allow for any additional usage in the caller. Well, if there are essentially no function calls anymore, this is not enough. Divide it by eight, which is anyway much more than possibly needed by any clone()d callee. I think this is robust, so it's a fix in some sense. Strictly speaking, though, we have no formal guarantees that this isn't either too little or too much. What we should do, eventually: check cloned() callees, there are just thirteen of them at the moment. Note down any stack usage (they are mostly small helpers), bonus points for an automated way at build time, quadruple that or so, to allow for extreme clumsiness, and use as NS_FN_STACK_SIZE. Perhaps introduce a specific condition for hppa.

* Replace FWRITE with a functionDavid Gibson2022-10-151-12/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a few places we use the FWRITE() macro to open a file, replace it's contents with a given string and close it again. There's no real reason this needs to be a macro rather than just a function though. Turn it into a function 'write_file()' and make some ancillary cleanups while we're there: - Add a return code so the caller can handle giving a useful error message - Handle the case of short write()s (unlikely, but possible) - Add O_TRUNC, to make sure we replace the existing contents entirely Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* Don't create 'tap' socket for ports that are bound to loopback onlyStefano Brivio2022-10-151-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user specifies an explicit loopback address for a port binding, we're going to use that address for the 'tap' socket, and the same exact address for the 'spliced' socket (because those are, by definition, only bound to loopback addresses). This means that the second binding will fail, and, unexpectedly, the port is forwarded, but via tap device, which means the source address in the namespace won't be a loopback address. Make it explicit under which conditions we're creating which kind of socket, by refactoring tcp_sock_init() into two separate functions for IPv4 and IPv6 and gathering those conditions at the beginning. Also, don't create spliced sockets if the user specifies explicitly a non-loopback address, those are harmless but not desired either.

* udp: Replace pragma to ignore bogus stringop-overread warning with workaroundStefano Brivio2022-09-291-23/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c318ffcb4c93 ("udp: Ignore bogus -Wstringop-overread for write() from gcc 12.1") uses a gcc pragma to ignore a bogus warning, which started appearing on gcc 12.1 (aarch64 and x86_64) due to: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=103483 ...but gcc 12.2 has the same issue. Not just that: if LTO is enabled, the pragma itself is ignored (this wasn't the case with gcc 12.1), because of: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=80922 Drop the pragma, and assign a frame (in the networking sense) pointer from the offset of the Ethernet header in the buffer, then pass it to write() and pcap(), so that gcc doesn't obsess anymore with the fact that an Ethernet header is 14 bytes and we're sending more than that.

* Consolidate determination of UID/GID to run asDavid Gibson2022-09-131-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the logic to work out what UID and GID we will run as is spread across conf(). If --runas is specified it's handled in conf_runas(), otherwise it's handled by check_root(), which depends on initialization of the uid and gid variables by either conf() itself or conf_runas(). Make this clearer by putting all the UID and GID logic into a single conf_ugid() function. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Split checking for root from dropping root privilegeDavid Gibson2022-09-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check_root() both checks to see if we are root (in the init namespace), and if we are drops to an unprivileged user. To make future cleanups simpler, split the checking for root (now in check_root()) from the actual dropping of privilege (now in drop_root()). Note that this does slightly alter semantics. Previously we would only setuid() if we were originally root (in the init namespace). Now we will always setuid() and setgid(), though it won't actually change anything if we weren't privileged to begin with. This also means that we will now always attempt to switch to the user specified with --runas, even if we aren't (init namespace) root to begin with. Obviously this will fail with an error if we weren't privileged to start with. --help and the man page are updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* Clarify semantics of c->v4 and c->v6 variablesDavid Gibson2022-07-301-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The v4 and v6 fields of the context structure can be confusing, because they change meaning part way through the code: Before conf_ip(), they are booleans which indicate whether the -4 or -6 options have been given. After conf_ip() they are DISABLED|ENABLED|PROBE enums which indicate whether the IP version is available (which means both that it was allowed on the command line and we were able to configure it). The PROBE variant of the enum is only used locally within conf_ip() and since recent changes there it no longer has a real purpose different from ENABLED. Simplify this all by making the context fields always just a boolean indicating the availability of the IP version. They both default to 1, but can be set to 0 by either command line options or configuration failures. We use some local variables in conf() for tracking the state of the command line options on their own.

* conf: Add --runas option, changing to given UID and GID if started as rootStefano Brivio2022-05-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some systems, user and group "nobody" might not be available. The new --runas option allows to override the default "nobody" choice if started as root. Now that we allow this, drop the initgroups() call that was used to add any additional groups for the given user, as that might now grant unnecessarily broad permissions. For instance, several distributions have a "kvm" group to allow regular user access to /dev/kvm, and we don't need that in passt or pasta. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* treewide: Packet abstraction with mandatory boundary checksStefano Brivio2022-03-291-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

An example is given by the ESTABLISHED_SOCK_FIN_SENT and FIN_WAIT_1_SOCK_FIN abominations: we don't actually care about which side started closing the connection to handle closing of connection halves.

* passt, pasta: Namespace-based sandboxing, defer seccomp policy applicationStefano Brivio2022-02-211-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* tcp, udp: Allow binding ports in init namespace to both tap and loopbackStefano Brivio2021-07-261-2/+8
| | | | | | | | Traffic with loopback source address will be forwarded to the direct loopback connection in the namespace, and the tap interface is used for the rest. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* checksum: Introduce AVX2 implementation, unify helpersStefano Brivio2021-07-261-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* udp: Introduce recvmmsg()/sendmmsg(), zero-copy path from socketStefano Brivio2021-07-211-0/+59
| | | | | | | | | | Packets are received directly onto pre-cooked, static buffers for IPv4 (with partial checksum pre-calculation) and IPv6 frames, with pre-filled Ethernet addresses and, partially, IP headers, and sent out from the same buffers with sendmmsg(), for both passt and pasta (non-local traffic only) modes.
