Merge branch 'bpf-support-for-sockets'
David Ahern says: ==================== net: Add bpf support for sockets The recently added VRF support in Linux leverages the bind-to-device API for programs to specify an L3 domain for a socket. While SO_BINDTODEVICE has been around for ages, not every ipv4/ipv6 capable program has support for it. Even for those programs that do support it, the API requires processes to be started as root (CAP_NET_RAW) which is not desirable from a general security perspective. This patch set leverages Daniel Mack's work to attach bpf programs to a cgroup to provide a capability to set sk_bound_dev_if for all AF_INET{6} sockets opened by a process in a cgroup when the sockets are allocated. For example: 1. configure vrf (e.g., using ifupdown2) auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp vrf mgmt auto mgmt iface mgmt vrf-table auto 2. configure cgroup mount -t cgroup2 none /tmp/cgroupv2 mkdir /tmp/cgroupv2/mgmt test_cgrp2_sock /tmp/cgroupv2/mgmt 15 3. set shell into cgroup (e.g., can be done at login using pam) echo $$ >> /tmp/cgroupv2/mgmt/cgroup.procs At this point all commands run in the shell (e.g, apt) have sockets automatically bound to the VRF (see output of ss -ap 'dev == <vrf>'), including processes not running as root. This capability enables running any program in a VRF context and is key to deploying Management VRF, a fundamental configuration for networking gear, with any Linux OS installation. This patchset also exports the socket family, type and protocol as read-only allowing bpf filters to deny a process in a cgroup the ability to open specific types of AF_INET or AF_INET6 sockets. v7 - comments from Alexei v6 - add export of socket family, type and protocol ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
