The kernel repository has a .mailmap file to remap author names and
email addresses to their desired format in Git logs (for details, see
gitmailmap documentation [0]). Alas, this is only visible for author
information when looking at the logs locally, as GitHub does not support
mailmaps at the moment [1].
This commit adds a .mailmap file for libbpf, automatically generated
from the kernel's version. The script to generate the .mailmap is added,
too: it works by grepping email addresses from authors in the
repository, and collecting all lines ending with this address in the
kernel's .mailmap - in other words, all lines where this address is used
as a pattern for a remapping.
To keep the .mailmap up-to-date, add a call to the script to
sync-kernel.sh.

In bpf_objec_load_prog(), there's no guarantee that obj->btf is non-NULL
when passing it to btf__fd(), and this function does not perform any
check before dereferencing its argument (as bpf_object__btf_fd() used to
do). As a consequence, we get segmentation fault errors in bpftool (for
example) when trying to load programs that come without BTF information.
v2: Keep btf__fd() in the fix instead of reverting to bpf_object__btf_fd().

When syncing with the kernel, the script generates a cover letter for
the latest changes using "git format-patch". Unless specified otherwise,
it uses a signature (as in, email footer signature) which defaults to
the Git version in use, and ends up in the commit logs. This doesn't
bring any useful information in there: let's get rid of this version
number.

Adding or removing room space _below_ layers 2 or 3, as the description
mentions, is ambiguous. This was written with a mental image of the
packet with layer 2 at the top, layer 3 under it, and so on. But it has
led users to believe that it was on lower layers (before the beginning
of the L2 and L3 headers respectively).
Let's make it more explicit, and specify between which layers the room
space is adjusted.

Move commands to existing sections, or add markers for new sections when
no surrounding existing section is relevant. This is to avoid having
logs outside of subsection for the “vmtest” step of the GitHub action.
Two changes come with this patch:
- Test groups report their exit status individually for the final
summary, by appending it to /exitstatus in the VM. “Test groups” are
test_maps, test_verifier, test_progs, and test_progs-no_alu32.
- For these separate reports to make sense, allow the CI action to carry
on even after one of the groups fails, by adding "&& true" to the
commands in order to neutralise the effect of the "set -e".
We recently introduced a summary for the results of the different groups
of tests for the CI, displayed after the machine is shut down. There are
currently two groups, "bpftool" and "vm_tests". We want to split the
latter into different subgroups. For that, we will make each group of
tests that runs in the VM print its exit status to the /exitstatus file.
In preparation for this, let's update the format of this /exitstatus
file. Instead of containing just an integer, it now contains a line with
a group name, a colon, and the integer result. This is easy enough to
parse on the other end.
We also drop the associative array, and iterate on /exitstatus instead
to produce the summary: this way, the order of the checks is preserved.
The bpftool checks work as expected when the CI runs, except that they
do not set any error status code for the script on error, which means
that the failures are lost among the logs and not reported in a clear
way to the reviewers.
This commit aims at fixing the issue. We could simply exit with a
non-zero error status when the bpftool checks, but that would prevent
the other tests from running. Instead, we propose to store the result of
the bpftool checks in a bash array. This array can later be reused to
print a summary of the different groups of tests, at the end of the CI
run, to help the reviewers understand where the failure happened without
having to manually unfold all the sections on the GitHub interface.
Currently, there are only two groups: the bpftool checks and the "VM
tests". The latter may later be split into test_maps, test_progs,
test_progs-no_alu32, etc. by teaching each of them to append their exit
status code to the "exitstatus" file.
Fixes: 88649fe655 ("ci: run script to test bpftool types/options sync")
For displaying a coloured title for the shutdown section in the logs,
instead of having the colour control codes directly written in run.sh,
we can pass the section title as an argument to "travis_fold()" and have
it format and print it for us.
This is cleaner, and slightly more in-line with what we do in the CI
files of the vmtest repository.
The sync-kernel.sh script has two consecutive tests for $BPF_BRANCH
being provided by the user (and so the second one can currently never
fail). Looking at the error message displayed in each case, we want to
keep the second one. Let's remove the first check.

Introduce a macro LIBBPF_DEPRECATED_SINCE(major, minor, message) to prepare
the deprecation of two API functions. This macro marks functions as deprecated
when libbpf's version reaches the values passed as an argument.
As part of this change libbpf_version.h header is added with recorded major
(LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION) and minor (LIBBPF_MINOR_VERSION) libbpf version macros.
They are now part of libbpf public API and can be relied upon by user code.
libbpf_version.h is installed system-wide along other libbpf public headers.
Due to this new build-time auto-generated header, in-kernel applications
relying on libbpf (resolve_btfids, bpftool, bpf_preload) are updated to
include libbpf's output directory as part of a list of include search paths.
Better fix would be to use libbpf's make_install target to install public API
headers, but that clean up is left out as a future improvement. The build
changes were tested by building kernel (with KBUILD_OUTPUT and O= specified
explicitly), bpftool, libbpf, selftests/bpf, and resolve_btfids builds. No
problems were detected.
Note that because of the constraints of the C preprocessor we have to write
a few lines of macro magic for each version used to prepare deprecation (0.6
for now).
Also, use LIBBPF_DEPRECATED_SINCE() to schedule deprecation of
btf__get_from_id() and btf__load(), which are replaced by
btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() and btf__load_into_kernel(), respectively,
starting from future libbpf v0.6. This is part of libbpf 1.0 effort ([0]).

When new eBPF program, map, or attach types are added to the kernel,
bpftool needs to be updated in order to support the related features.
These updates should add the new types to the code itself, but also to
the help messages, documentation, and bash completion. Given that it is
easy to omit one of those, a script has been created to attempt to
validate that all parts have been consistently updated.
This new script for bpftool is hosted in the kernel repository, amongst
the BPF selftests. But it is not called from the Makefile, and not run
along with the other selftests. If it was, all patches updating the BPF
UAPI would require the relevant changes in bpftool at the same time, _in
the same patches_, which is not desirable.
To ensure that bpftool's parts remain in sync, let's run this script
from the CI. This patch adds a new section to the run.sh script, focused
on bpftool, and calling the new test_bpftool_synctypes.py.
Variable "err" is initialised to -EINVAL so that this error code is
returned when something goes wrong in libbpf_find_prog_btf_id().
However, a recent change in the function made use of the variable in
such a way that it is set to 0 if retrieving linear information on the
program is successful, and this 0 value remains if we error out on
failures at later stages.
Let's fix this by setting err to -EINVAL later in the function.

There are two functions in libbpf that support passing a log_level
parameter for the verifier for loading programs:
bpf_object__load_xattr() and bpf_prog_load_xattr(). Both accept an
attribute object containing the log_level, and apply it to the programs
to load.
It turns out that to effectively load the programs, the latter function
eventually relies on the former. This was not taken into account when
adding support for log_level in bpf_object__load_xattr(), and the
log_level passed to bpf_prog_load_xattr() later gets overwritten with a
zero value, thus disabling verifier logs for the program in all cases:
bpf_prog_load_xattr() // prog->log_level = attr1->log_level;
-> bpf_object__load() // attr2->log_level = 0;
-> bpf_object__load_xattr() // <pass prog and attr2>
-> bpf_object__load_progs() // prog->log_level = attr2->log_level;
Fix this by OR-ing the log_level in bpf_object__load_progs(), instead of
overwriting it.
v2: Fix commit log description (confusion on function names in v1).

libbpf was recently made aware of the log_level attribute for programs,
used to specify the level of information expected to be dumped by the
verifier. Function bpf_prog_load_xattr() got support for this log_level
parameter.
But some applications using libbpf rely on another function to load
programs, bpf_object__load(), which does accept any parameter for log
level. Create an API function based on bpf_object__load(), but accepting
an "attr" object as a parameter. Then add a log_level field to that
object, so that applications calling the new bpf_object__load_xattr()
can pick the desired log level.
v3:
- Rewrite commit log.
v2:
- We are in a new cycle, bump libbpf extraversion number.
