Syzbot found an issue [1]: fq_codel_drop() try to drop a flow whitout any

The root cause, as the [2] says, is because that bpf_prog_test_run_skb()
run a bpf prog which redirects empty skbs.
So we should determine whether the length of the packet modified by bpf
prog or others like bpf_prog_test is valid before forwarding it directly.

v3: modify debug print
v2: need move checking to convert___skb_to_skb and add debug info
v1: should not check len in fast path

From another recent report [0], I don't think this change is fixing the report
from syzbot. It probably makes sense to revert this patch.

afaict, This '!skb->len' test is done after
if (is_l2)
__skb_push(skb, hh_len);

Hence, skb->len is not zero in convert___skb_to_skb(). The proper place to test
skb->len is before __skb_push() to ensure there is some network header after the
mac or may as well ensure "data_size_in > ETH_HLEN" at the beginning.

When is_l2==true, __skb_push will result in non-zero skb->len, so we
should be good, right?
The only issue is when we do bpf_redirect into a tunneling device and
do __skb_pull, but that's now fixed by [0].

When is_l2==false, the existing check in convert___skb_to_skb will
make sure there is something in the l3 headers.

So it seems like this patch is still needed. Or am I missing something?

Replied in [0]. I think a small change in [0] will make this patch obsolete.

My thinking is the !skb->len test in this patch does not address all cases, at least not the most common one (the sch_cls prog where is_l2 == true) and then it needs another change in __bpf_redirect_no_mac [0]. Then, instead of breaking the existing test cases, may as well solely depend on the change in __bpf_redirect_no_mac which seems to be the only redirect function that does not have the len check now.


The fix in [0] is applied. If it turns out there are other cases caused by the
skb generated by test_run that needs extra fixes in bpf_redirect_*, it needs to
revisit an earlier !skb->len check mentioned above and the existing test cases
outside of test_progs would have to adjust accordingly.
