Subject[PATCH bpf-next v3 00/17] Introduce eBPF support for HID devices
Date
Hi,

This is a followup of my v1 at [0] and v2 at [1].

The short summary of the previous cover letter and discussions is that
HID could benefit from BPF for the following use cases:

- simple fixup of report descriptor:
benefits are faster development time and testing, with the produced
bpf program being shipped in the kernel directly (the shipping part
is *not* addressed here).

- Universal Stylus Interface:
allows a user-space program to define its own kernel interface

- Surface Dial:
somehow similar to the previous one except that userspace can decide
to change the shape of the exported device

- firewall:
still partly missing there, there is not yet interception of hidraw
calls, but it's coming in a followup series, I promise

- tracing:
well, tracing.


I think I addressed the comments from the previous version, but there are
a few things I'd like to note here:

- I did not take the various rev-by and tested-by (thanks a lot for those)
because the uapi changed significantly in v3, so I am not very confident
in taking those rev-by blindly

- I mentioned in my discussion with Song that I'll put a summary of the uapi
in the cover letter, but I ended up adding a (long) file in the Documentation
directory. So please maybe start by reading 17/17 to have an overview of
what I want to achieve

- I added in the libbpf and bpf the new type BPF_HID_DRIVER_EVENT, even though
I don't have a user of it right now in the kernel. I wanted to have them in
the docs, but we might not want to have them ready here.
In terms of code, it just means that we can attach such programs types
but that they will never get triggered.

Anyway, I have been mulling on this for the past 2 weeks, and I think that
maybe sharing this now is better than me just starring at the code over and
over.


Short summary of changes:

v3:
===

- squashed back together most of the libbpf and bpf changes into bigger
commits that give a better overview of the whole interactions

- reworked the user API to not expose .data as a directly accessible field
from the context, but instead forces everyone to use hid_bpf_get_data (or
get/set_bits)

- added BPF_HID_DRIVER_EVENT (see note above)

- addressed the various nitpicks from v2

- added a big Documentation file (and so adding now the doc maintainers to the
long list of recipients)

v2:
===

- split the series by subsystem (bpf, HID, libbpf, selftests and
samples)

- Added an extra patch at the beginning to not require CAP_NET_ADMIN for
BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2 (please shout if this is wrong)

- made the bpf context attached to HID program of dynamic size:
* the first 1 kB will be able to be addressed directly
* the rest can be retrieved through bpf_hid_{set|get}_data
(note that I am definitivey not happy with that API, because there
is part of it in bits and other in bytes. ouch)

- added an extra patch to prevent non GPL HID bpf programs to be loaded
of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_HID
* same here, not really happy but I don't know where to put that check
in verifier.c

- added a new flag BPF_F_INSERT_HEAD for BPF_LINK_CREATE syscall when in
used with HID program types.
* this flag is used for tracing, to be able to load a program before
any others that might already have been inserted and that might
change the data stream.

Cheers,
Benjamin
