Daniel Borkmann 6b1bb01bcc bpf: fix cb access in socket filter programs on tail calls
Commit ff936a04e5f2 ("bpf: fix cb access in socket filter programs")
added a fix for socket filter programs such that in i) AF_PACKET the
20 bytes of skb->cb[] area gets zeroed before use in order to not leak
data, and ii) socket filter programs attached to TCP/UDP sockets need
to save/restore these 20 bytes since they are also used by protocol
layers at that time.

The problem is that bpf_prog_run_save_cb() and bpf_prog_run_clear_cb()
only look at the actual attached program to determine whether to zero
or save/restore the skb->cb[] parts. There can be cases where the
actual attached program does not access the skb->cb[], but the program
tail calls into another program which does access this area. In such
a case, the zero or save/restore is currently not performed.

Since the programs we tail call into are unknown at verification time
and can dynamically change, we need to assume that whenever the attached
program performs a tail call, that later programs could access the
skb->cb[], and therefore we need to always set cb_access to 1.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
