eBPF on Windows

Prerequisites

The following must be installed in order to build this project:

  1. Git (e.g., Git for Windows 64-bit)
  2. Visual Studio 2019, including the "MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 Spectre-mitigated libs (v14.28)" which must be selected as an Individual component in the VS installer
  3. Visual Studio Build Tools 2019
  4. WDK for Windows 10, version 2004
  5. Clang/LLVM for Windows 64-bit

How to build the demo project

  1. git clone -b demo --recurse-submodules https://msazure.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/One/_git/EdgeOS-CoreNetworking-WindowsEbpf
  2. cd EdgeOS-CoreNetworking-WindowsEbpf
  3. cmake -S external\ebpf-verifier -B external\ebpf-verifier\build
  4. Open ebpf-demo.sln
  5. Switch to debug / x64
  6. Build solution

Demo script

Prep

  1. Setup 2 VMs, attacker and defender
  2. On defender, install and setup DNS
  3. On defender, make sure KD is attached and running.
  4. Install Debug VS 2019 VC redist from TBD (or switch everything to Multi-threaded Debug (/MTd) and rebuild)
  5. Copy ebpfcore.sys to %windir%\system32\drivers
  6. Copy ebpfapi.dll and ebpfnetsh.dll to %windir%\system32
  7. sc create EbpfCore type=kernel start=boot binpath=%windir%\system32\drivers\ebpfcore.sys
  8. sc start EbpfCore
  9. netsh add helper %windir%\system32\ebpfnetsh.dll
  10. Install clang
  11. Copy droppacket.c and ebpf.h to a folder (like c:\test)

Demo

On attacker machine

  1. Copy DnsFlood.exe to attacker machine
  2. Run for /L %i in (1,1,4) do start /min DnsFlood <ip of defender>

On defender machine

  1. Start perfomance monitor and add UDPv4 Datagrams/sec
  2. Show that 200K packets per second are being received
  3. Show & explain code of droppacket.c
  4. Compile droppacket.c clang -target bpf -O2 -Wall -c droppacket.c -o droppacket.o
  5. Show eBPF byte code for droppacket.o netsh ebpf show disassembly droppacket.o xdp
  6. Show that the verifier checks the code netsh ebpf show verification droppacket.o xdp
  7. Launch netsh netsh
  8. Switch to ebpf context ebpf
  9. Load eBPF program add program droppacket.o xdp
  10. Show UDP datagrams received drop to under 10 per second
  11. Unload program delete program droppacket.o xdp
  12. Show UDP datagrams received drop to back up to ~200K per second
  13. Modify droppacket.c to be unsafe - Comment out line 20 & 21
  14. Compile droppacket.c clang -target bpf -O2 -Wall -c droppacket.c -o droppacket.o
  15. Show that the verifier rejects the code netsh ebpf show verification droppacket.o xdp
  16. Show that loading the program fails netsh ebpf add program droppacket.o xdp
