bpf: sk_msg program helper bpf_sk_msg_pull_data
Currently, if a bpf sk msg program is run the program can only parse data that the (start,end) pointers already consumed. For sendmsg hooks this is likely the first scatterlist element. For sendpage this will be the range (0,0) because the data is shared with userspace and by default we want to avoid allowing userspace to modify data while (or after) BPF verdict is being decided. To support pulling in additional bytes for parsing use a new helper bpf_sk_msg_pull(start, end, flags) which works similar to cls tc logic. This helper will attempt to point the data start pointer at 'start' bytes offest into msg and data end pointer at 'end' bytes offset into message. After basic sanity checks to ensure 'start' <= 'end' and 'end' <= msg_length there are a few cases we need to handle. First the sendmsg hook has already copied the data from userspace and has exclusive access to it. Therefor, it is not necessesary to copy the data. However, it may be required. After finding the scatterlist element with 'start' offset byte in it there are two cases. One the range (start,end) is entirely contained in the sg element and is already linear. All that is needed is to update the data pointers, no allocate/copy is needed. The other case is (start, end) crosses sg element boundaries. In this case we allocate a block of size 'end - start' and copy the data to linearize it. Next sendpage hook has not copied any data in initial state so that data pointers are (0,0). In this case we handle it similar to the above sendmsg case except the allocation/copy must always happen. Then when sending the data we have possibly three memory regions that need to be sent, (0, start - 1), (start, end), and (end + 1, msg_length). This is required to ensure any writes by the BPF program are correctly transmitted. Lastly this operation will invalidate any previous data checks so BPF programs will have to revalidate pointers after making this BPF call.
