SNI filter sni.lua can't filter chrome browser with reassembled TCP segments?

[vincentmli]

when use chrome browser, the ssl client hello is sent in two TCP segments, and reassembled, it appears sni.lua can't handle TCP reassembled clienthello SNI?

[vincentmli]

the first TCP segments contains handshake and clienthello and up to extension key_share which has 1263 bytes. server_name extension is in the second TCP segments, remove the handshake and clienthello check in sni.lua seems not enough to get server_name, the offset could be incorrect still.

wrapping up our discussion on Matrix.. it might be resolved on kernel 6.9 by this:

@lneto I tried upstream stable kernel 6.10.11 release, same problem

I'm not sure why it's not triggering skb_linearize(), I would need to have a better look at this.. thinking also on a simple hack on Lua side to keep context of the parser.. will try it out later..

is there some issue with skb_linearize() not triggering in kernel or in lunatik?

the issue is probably with my understanding of what should actual happen ;-).. I was expecting the following flow..

do_xdp_generic
netif_receive_generic_xdp
netif_skb_check_for_xdp
skb_linearize

however, I'm not sure why it's not following this.. I need to spend some brain cycles to understand it better =)

I am learning and I like to understand it better too :). if the skb_linearize is triggered as you thought, when XDP pass the packet to Lua, it will be one whole clienthello packet so Lua can parse it correctly? not like two previously individual packet segments ?

[lneto]

perhaps this is the guy we want to use.. https://ebpf-docs.dylanreimerink.nl/linux/helper-function/bpf_xdp_get_buff_len/

also, page 15 from https://lpc.events/event/11/contributions/939/attachments/771/1551/xdp-multi-buff.pdf

I still need to digest.. but I think it should be the path to follow..

[vincentmli]

I think we could call bpf_xdp_get_buff_len(ctx) and print out the length in https.o so we know how many data length there is, right? I guess the end goal is we want to get the data length in https.o that is equal to the total packet length chrome browser sent. if we don't get that large data length, problem is in kernel side, if we get large data length in https.o, problem is in LuaXDP side?

I added bpf_printk to print length, and xdp.frags, I can see the printed length, but none of them exceeded MTU 1460 size, all are small, I need to adjust the https.c so I can clearly tell the printed length is from chrome, now there are some other noisy printout that can confuse me.

I think I need to understand and read more about the xdp frags so I know what I am trying :)

[lneto]

@vincentmli my understanding is that you need

1. MTU bigger or equal than the ETH frame that will carry the TCP frags;
2. load eBPF program in SEC("XDP.frags");
3. make your TCP frag request using chrome;
4. now, bpf_xdp_get_buf_len() should return the total TCP segment length, which should be greater than data_end - data. This means that part of of the frame is linearized, part is not.
5. then, if I got correctly, you can call bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(ctx, 0) to "linearize" it.
6. after that, data_end - data should have the length of the whole TCP segment.

thanks! I will try it, I am following the initial XDP multi buffer support and reading all the discussion involved and hasn't finished yet, it takes time but I am getting better understanding :) vincentmli/BPFire#44

I followed your suggestion to set the MTU to 4096, and adjusted the code below to print true_len, old_data_len, new_data_len, send chrome request, but they are always the same, still no success, I am expecting true_len > old_data_len, but it never occurs

this tcpdump capture from the chrome client, so the clienthello is already segmented by the chrome client due to client MTU, even if BPFire green0 MTU is 4096, the incoming packet is smaller than standard 1500 MTU, so the generic xdp actually never received > 1500 packets, is that the reason ? I tried to set the chrome client MTU to 4096 too, but still it sends smaller packet < 1500. the chrome client is iMac by the way.

and even if I can force chrome client send large than > mtu 1500 packet, this would not work in practice, can't force each user computer to do that :)

I tried a new Linux client with MTU set to 9000, and use hping3 to send > 1500 bytes

it looks to me generic xdp driver already handles linearized skb since the true_len equals old_data_len to 3054 bytes, right? so my understanding is that if chrome (iMac) client does not segment the clienthello, https.o should get linearized skb with true length of clienthello and the sni filter should work. no need to call bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(ctx, 0);, just curious, where you get calling bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(ctx, 0); with offset 0 will linearize skb?

[lneto]

I followed your suggestion to set the MTU to 4096, and adjusted the code below to print true_len, old_data_len, new_data_len, send chrome request, but they are always the same, still no success, I am expecting true_len > old_data_len, but it never occurs

so, none exceeded the "default" MTU size.. my understanding is that wouldn't be non-linear anyway..

[lneto]

and even if I can force chrome client send large than > mtu 1500 packet, this would not work in practice, can't force each user computer to do that :)

my understanding (from the issue description) was that chrome client was already sending TCP frags into a large ETH frame.. if it's not the case, I don't think XDP will be aware of the frags because it runs before the network stack.. in this case, I see two paths:

1. handle frags in our eBPF/Lua program;
2. let the frags go through the network stack and handle this in luanetfilter (who is already linearizing the skb).
