Daniel Borkmann 09772d92cd bpf: avoid retpoline for lookup/update/delete calls on maps
While some of the BPF map lookup helpers provide a ->map_gen_lookup()
callback for inlining the map lookup altogether it is not available
for every map, so the remaining ones have to call bpf_map_lookup_elem()
helper which does a dispatch to map->ops->map_lookup_elem(). In
times of retpolines, this will control and trap speculative execution
rather than letting it do its work for the indirect call and will
therefore cause a slowdown. Likewise, bpf_map_update_elem() and
bpf_map_delete_elem() do not have an inlined version and need to call
into their map->ops->map_update_elem() resp. map->ops->map_delete_elem()
handlers.

Before:

  # bpftool prog dump xlated id 1
    0: (bf) r2 = r10
    1: (07) r2 += -8
    2: (7a) *(u64 *)(r2 +0) = 0
    3: (18) r1 = map[id:1]
    5: (85) call __htab_map_lookup_elem#232656
    6: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+4
    7: (71) r1 = *(u8 *)(r0 +35)
    8: (55) if r1 != 0x0 goto pc+1
    9: (72) *(u8 *)(r0 +35) = 1
   10: (07) r0 += 56
   11: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+4
   12: (bf) r2 = r0
   13: (18) r1 = map[id:1]
   15: (85) call bpf_map_delete_elem#215008  <-- indirect call via
   16: (95) exit                                 helper

After:

  # bpftool prog dump xlated id 1
    0: (bf) r2 = r10
    1: (07) r2 += -8
    2: (7a) *(u64 *)(r2 +0) = 0
    3: (18) r1 = map[id:1]
    5: (85) call __htab_map_lookup_elem#233328
    6: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+4
    7: (71) r1 = *(u8 *)(r0 +35)
    8: (55) if r1 != 0x0 goto pc+1
    9: (72) *(u8 *)(r0 +35) = 1
   10: (07) r0 += 56
   11: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+4
   12: (bf) r2 = r0
   13: (18) r1 = map[id:1]
   15: (85) call htab_lru_map_delete_elem#238240  <-- direct call
   16: (95) exit

In all three lookup/update/delete cases however we can use the actual
address of the map callback directly if we find that there's only a
single path with a map pointer leading to the helper call, meaning
when the map pointer has not been poisoned from verifier side.
Example code can be seen above for the delete case.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
