bpf: Use memmove() to load bytes from an skb and an xdp_buff
bpf_dynptr_read() on an skb or xdp dynptr ends in bpf_skb_load_bytes() or bpf_xdp_load_bytes(). The destination can be a slice of the same packet, so it can overlap the source, which memcpy() does not allow. On x86 with FSRM memcpy() copies forward, so a destination above the source gets the first bytes repeated: p = bpf_dynptr_slice_rdwr(&ptr, 8, NULL, 64); bpf_dynptr_read(p, 64, &ptr, 0, 0); leaves bytes 8-71 of the packet as bytes 0-7 repeated, not bytes 0-63. Reproduced with BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN on both an xdp and a tc program. Use memmove(), as the store side does since commit 1db084f42884 ("bpf: Use memmove() to store bytes in an skb") and commit ab08863c58b1 ("bpf: Use memmove() to store bytes in an xdp_buff"). A read that spans xdp frags still goes through bpf_xdp_copy_buf() and is not changed here. bpf_skb_load_bytes_relative() has the same pattern and is reachable from tc and sk_filter programs, so use memmove() there as well. Reproduced with BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN on a tc program: loading into a slice at offset 8 gave wrong bytes before the change and correct bytes after.
