bpf_object__relocate_core() allocates a CO-RE candidate cache before
processing relocation records. Two instruction offset validation
failures return -EINVAL directly instead of going through the common
cleanup path.
These checks were moved into bpf_object__relocate_core() when
bpf_core_apply_relo() was split, preserving direct returns that were
safe in the previous helper but now bypass cleanup.
Route both failures through the out path so the candidate cache and
target BTF override are released.

BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG is an attribute on a declaration: with kind_flag=0
the tag name is the argument of a btf_decl_tag(), and with kind_flag=1
it encodes a complete __attribute__.
When doing btf_dump, render both forms at every declaration btf_dump
emits - a record, a record member and a typedef:
struct foo { ... } __attribute__((bar));
struct foo { int a __attribute__((bar)); };
typedef struct { ... } __attribute__((bar)) foo_t;
A decl tag is a standalone type pointing at its target. Build an
index of decl tags in btf_dump_resize(). Keep it as a flat array
sorted by (target ID, tag ID). This allows for a stable emission order
in btf_dump_emit_decl_tags().
btf_dump_emit_decl_tags() binary searches for where the target's
entries would begin and walks tags while the target matches. A record
shares its target with its members, so the component_idx is matched
there.
A record attribute goes after the closing brace, where
__attribute__((packed)) already goes. A member attribute goes after
the bit-field width: clang rejects one between the declarator and the
':'. A typedef takes it after the declarator, so a typedef of an
anonymous record can carry two groups at once, one binding to the
record and one to the typedef.
This closes a generic gap in btf_dump, which silently dropped every
decl tag it was given.

Clang puts an extern variable that ends up with a section, an extern
map in .maps or an arena global in .addr_space.<N>, into the BTF
DATASEC of that section, next to the object's own definitions and
with offset 0. Unlike .kconfig and .ksyms, that section is a real
allocated ELF section whenever the same object also defines a
variable in it. The static linker handles such externs incorrectly in
two ways.
The output symbol of an unresolved extern gets the destination
section's index and offset instead of staying SHN_UNDEF with a zero
value. For ephemeral sections both are 0, so this only shows up for
allocated sections, where the extern turns into a size-zero NOTYPE
definition. Linking the output again then fails with "conflicting
non-weak symbol" against a strong definition of that variable, or,
against a weak one, keeps the bogus symbol and resolves every
reference to offset 0 of the section. And if the section of the
object with the extern doesn't start at offset 0 of the output
section, the output symbol fails linker_sanity_check_elf_symtab() on
the next link with "invalid extern symbol" before any of that.
When the extern is resolved by a later object in the same link, the
DATASEC entry appended for the extern keeps its placeholder offset,
as linker_append_btf() only updates the size of an existing entry.
The ELF symbol and the BTF secinfo then disagree and skeleton
generation fails with:
Error: Something is wrong for .addr_space.1's variable #1: need offset 0, already at 8.
Keep unresolved externs SHN_UNDEF with a zero value in the output
symbol table, and once an extern is resolved take the offset of its
DATASEC entry from the ELF symbol, which already accounts for weak
vs. strong resolution.

The existing BPF_PROG_STREAM_READ_BY_FD command only supports polling a
program stream through repeated bpf() calls. It cannot block for new data
or integrate with poll-based event loops.
Add BPF_PROG_STREAM_OPEN to return a read-only, close-on-exec file
descriptor for a selected program stream. Reads block by default and
BPF_F_STREAM_NONBLOCK, the only accepted flag, provides non-blocking
behavior. poll reports readable data and reports hangup once the program
has been freed. Like pipes and sockets, the descriptor is not seekable and
lseek fails with ESPIPE.
A stream descriptor deliberately does not retain the program. Move each
stream into a separately refcounted allocation so program teardown can mark
it dead and wake descriptor users while outstanding descriptors drain
buffered data safely. Readers sample the dead flag before looking for data,
so EOF is reported only when the stream was already dead before it was
found empty; data published right before teardown is never skipped.
Only programs loaded through BPF_PROG_LOAD get streams. Classic BPF
filters, JIT subprograms and shim programs never write to one, and
kernel-side writers already resolve a subprogram to its main program, so
those programs no longer carry stream state.
Readiness needs its own counter. Stream capacity is charged before
allocation and before an element is published to the stream log, so using
that reservation as the read and poll condition can report readable data
while no element exists: a blocking reader retries instead of sleeping and
a lone non-blocking reader can see POLLIN followed by EAGAIN. Publish bytes
with release ordering after adding elements to the lockless log, use
acquire loads before consuming them or reporting readiness, limit each read
to its readable snapshot and subtract only bytes actually copied. This
keeps the aggregate count correct even when concurrent publishers update it
out of publication order. With several readers on one stream, readiness
remains advisory, as it is for pipes. The capacity counter is kept solely
for enforcing the stream size limit.
Wakeups are always deferred through irq_work. Stream writers run in
whatever context the program runs in: NMI context for perf_event programs,
sections with interrupts disabled inside bpf_spin_lock or rqspinlock
critical sections since bpf_stream_vprintk() is KF_SPINLOCK_SAFE, and
tracing programs attached anywhere in the kernel, including inside the wait
queue and epoll code itself. Waking waiters directly from there can
deadlock, and no cheap context check covers every case: on PREEMPT_RT,
spinlock_t sections do not disable interrupts, so in_nmi() or
irqs_disabled() cannot tell such a program apart from a benign one. Queue
an irq_work item instead, as bpf_ringbuf does.
Queue it only when a publication turns an empty stream readable. Readers
block and pollers wait only after finding the stream empty, and the
readable count never drops below zero because each read is bounded by its
snapshot, so the first publication after such an observation is the one
that makes the count positive, and it is the one that queues the wakeup.
Publications into a stream that already holds data raise no interrupt, so
a program that prints while nobody drains its stream pays for a single
irq_work until the stream is emptied again. This matches bpf_ringbuf, which
notifies only once the consumer has caught up. Blocking readers and
level-triggered pollers re-check the readable count before waiting, so they
cannot miss data, and edge-triggered epoll consumers drain until EAGAIN
before waiting again, as epoll(7) requires.
Synchronize pending work before releasing the final stream reference so
the callback cannot outlive the stream, but only when the work was ever
queued: irq_work_sync() waits for an RCU grace period on PREEMPT_RT and on
architectures without an irq_work interrupt.

CO-RE relocation of an ldimm64 instruction operates on two instruction
slots. A malformed BPF ELF can end a function after the first slot and
attach a CO-RE relocation to it. libbpf allocates the instruction array
according to the function symbol size, so the shared relocation code would
then access beyond the allocation.
Reject a terminal ldimm64 in libbpf's relocation loop, where the program
length is available, before resolving or applying the relocation. Both
resolved and unresolved relocations validate the absent second slot, and
unresolved relocation poisoning would additionally write past the array.
The in-kernel caller is protected by the verifier's early instruction-stream

CO-RE relocation records can name any instruction offset. When a
relocation cannot be resolved, bpf_core_patch_insn() currently poisons its
target before checking whether that instruction is a valid relocation
target. Malformed metadata can therefore replace jumps, calls, exits,
register-source arithmetic, or non-immediate loads instead of failing at
the relocation step.
Handle poisoning only after the instruction has passed the same class and
operand-form checks used for a resolved relocation. Route invalid forms
through the existing diagnostic and return a hard error. Keep poisoning
supported instructions, including both halves of a plain ldimm64, so an
unresolved relocation in dead code remains valid.
Extend bpf_core_poison_insn() to poison both halves of ldimm64, and return
its status directly from each validated instruction case. This avoids
routing the success path through a common label and leaves the helper free
to report errors.
The shared relocation code applies this restriction to both libbpf and
in-kernel CO-RE.

Add BTF_KIND_LOC_PARAM, BTF_KIND_LOC_PROTO and BTF_KIND_LOCSEC
to help represent location information for functions.
BTF_KIND_LOC_PARAM is used to represent how we retrieve data at a
location; either via register(s), or register+offset, a dereference
of a register+offset or a constant value.
BTF_KIND_LOC_PROTO represents location information about a location
with multiple BTF_KIND_LOC_PARAMs.
And finally BTF_KIND_LOCSEC is a set of location sites, each
of which has
- a BTF_KIND_FUNC function associated with the inline site
- a location prototype specifying where to find the function
parameters
- an address offset relative to the kernel base address
This can be used to support representing
- a fully-inlined function at potentially multiple inline sites
with potentially different parameter availability
- a partially-inlined function where some _LOC_PROTOs represent
inlined sites as above and others have normal _FUNC representations
Also BTF_KIND_LOCSEC struct btf_loc will have two type id
references; one for the associated func, the other for the loc_proto.
Accordingly increase the number of m_offs references in btf_field_desc

pointer is NULL.
- Functions have different offsets in different progs, so create a copy

them with addresses at load and the prog must be the only user of
the map. The map of the section itself is left as-is.
- Progs without callx cannot call them and the kernel doesn't look for

BPF programs that manage their own objects have no way to run their own
logic once an RCU grace period has elapsed. bpf_obj_drop() defers a
free, but returning an index to an allocator or unpinning a resource
once readers are done has no equivalent. sched_ext's BPF library works
around this today by pushing freed nodes onto a list and having a
userspace thread call membarrier(MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL) and then run a
BPF program to reclaim them.
Add:
int bpf_call_rcu(struct bpf_rcu_head *rh, void *map,
int (*callback)(struct bpf_map *map, void *key,
void *value));
@rh is a struct bpf_rcu_head embedded in a value of @map, so the
callback runs as callback(map, key, value) for the element it lives in
and needs no cookie. A head can only be armed once, which bounds
outstanding work by the number of elements.
struct bpf_rcu_head holds the callback state inline rather than a
pointer to it, as bpf_timer, bpf_wq and bpf_task_work do, because there
is nothing to cancel and so nothing that has to outlive the map value.
That avoids an allocation and a state machine on the arming path at the
cost of 48 bytes per element.
An RCU callback cannot be cancelled, so everything it touches has to
stay alive until it runs:
- The callback is the program's text, so arming takes a program
reference as bpf_timer, bpf_wq and bpf_task_work do, dropped once
the callback returns. bpf_prog_inc_not_zero() also fails the arm
with -EBADF once the program is dying.
- The map is held by that reference through used_maps. An inner map
is not, so bpf_rcu_head is rejected in one.
- The field is only accepted in BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY, whose elements
are never freed individually. A hash element can be deleted and
recycled while a callback is queued on it.
- The head is disarmed before the callback runs so it can be armed
again from there, which takes a new program reference before the
running callback drops its own. Arming therefore fails with -EPERM
once the map is held by neither a process nor bpffs.
bpf_iter hands a program a writable pointer to the live element, which
would let it overwrite a queued head, so bpf_iter_attach_map() rejects
maps carrying one.
The callback is verified non-sleepable even when the caller is
sleepable, and RCU invokes it with BH disabled.

Add the TCP header option callbacks to the bpf_tcp_ops struct_ops type:
parse_hdr - parse the options of an incoming skb on an established
connection
hdr_opt_len - reserve space in the TCP header for bpf options
write_hdr_opt - write the reserved bpf options
These mirror the BPF_SOCK_OPS_PARSE_HDR_OPT_CB, _HDR_OPT_LEN_CB and
_WRITE_HDR_OPT_CB legacy sockops callbacks, but are exposed as struct_ops
members so a program can implement them with normal function signatures
and per-member helper sets.
The reserved header window is shared between the legacy sockops and
bpf_tcp_ops paths. tcp_{syn,synack,established}_options() first run the
legacy BPF_SOCK_OPS_HDR_OPT_LEN_CB and then call hdr_opt_len, so both
sources accumulate into opts->bpf_opt_len; at write time the legacy
options are emitted first and bpf_tcp_ops writes after them.
API design
bpf_tcp_ops overloads the sock_ops header-option helpers rather than
introducing a new API: bpf_reserve_hdr_opt(), bpf_store_hdr_opt() and
bpf_load_hdr_opt() are exposed per-member (reserve for hdr_opt_len,
store/load for write_hdr_opt, load for parse_hdr) and share the existing
kernel option-walking core via _bpf_sock_ops{store,load}hdr_opt(), with
the bpf_tcp_ops wrappers synthesizing a temporary bpf_sock_ops_kern from
the program ctx. This keeps a port from the legacy
BPF_SOCK_OPS*_HDR_OPT_CB callbacks mechanical (same helper calls) and
adds no new UAPI helper/kfunc surface.
An alternative considered was to drop the option helpers entirely: have
hdr_opt_len reserve space purely through its return value, and introduce
a dedicated TCP-header-option dynptr used for both reading and writing.
That is a cleaner, more self-contained interface, but it is a larger
change and does not reuse the legacy helpers, making a port from sockops
less mechanical. It can be pursued as a follow-up; the helper-based
interface here keeps this series focused on moving the hooks to
struct_ops.
The hdr_opt_len fast path in tcp_established_options() is gated by
cgroup_bpf_enabled(CGROUP_TCP_SOCK_OPS). Note this is a global,
per-attach-type static branch: it is enabled whenever any bpf_tcp_ops is
attached, even one that does not implement hdr_opt_len or that is attached
to a different cgroup. In those cases the block still runs but
bpf_tcp_ops_hdr_opt_len() no-ops via the per-member check in the dispatch
macro. A per-member/per-cgroup gate could be added later if the extra
fast-path work proves measurable.

This patch adds necessary infrastructure to attach a struct_ops
map to a cgroup. The initial need was to support migrating
the legacy BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS to a struct_ops.
Recently, there are other struct_ops use cases that
need to attach struct_ops to a cgroup. For example,
the recent BPF OOM and memcg discussion in LSFMMBPF 2026.
The motivation is to create a consistent expectation
for attaching struct_ops to cgroup instead of each subsystem
creating its own infrastructure. This logic includes
hierarchy expectation, ordering expectation,
attachment API, and rcu gp.
There is already an existing implementation for attaching
multiple bpf progs to a cgroup. There are also tools
built around it for querying. Attaching a struct_ops map
(which is a group of bpf programs) could also adhere to
a similar API and potentially reuse most of the existing
implementation.
A couple of ideas have been tried. One of them
is to use mprog.c. In terms of the amount of changes,
I eventually came to the same conclusion as in
commit 120933984460 ("bpf: Implement mprog API on top of existing cgroup progs").
I then shifted the focus to reusing the current
{update,compute,activate,purge}_effective_progs() which has
the main logic that implements the mprog API.
Since then, I tried to add a 'struct cgroup *cgroup' member
to the existing 'struct bpf_struct_ops_link' and link_create
will create a 'struct bpf_struct_ops_link' object to be stored
in the pl->link. This turns out to have more changes on
both cgroup.c and bpf_struct_ops.c than I like.
This patch directly reuses the 'struct bpf_cgroup_link' which
cgroup.c already understands. Add 'struct bpf_map *map'
to 'struct bpf_cgroup_link'. In the future, as more subsystems
are extended by struct_ops, we may consider to make
'struct bpf_map *map' as a primary citizen of a link
like 'struct bpf_prog *prog' and directly add
'struct bpf_map *map' to the generic 'struct bpf_link'.
The pl->link could be the traditional 'prog' link or the
new 'map' link. The places that need to handle them differently
have already been refactored into the new prog_list_*() added in
the earlier patch. In those new prog_list_*(), this patch will
check "pl->link && pl->link->map", learn that it is a 'map' link
and handle it correctly.
The bpf_prog_array also needs to handle that its item can store
the traditional 'prog' or it can store a struct_ops map.
The places that need to handle them differently have also
been refactored into the new bpf_cgroup_array_*() added
in the earlier patch. The two differences are:
- different sentinel (dummy_bpf_prog in prog vs cfi_stub in struct_ops)
- the array for struct_ops may need to go through different
rcu gp.
The bpf_cgroup_array_*() functions use the cgroup_bpf_attach_type (ie atype)
to distinguish the array is storing prog or storing struct_ops map.
This patch also implements a separate struct bpf_link_ops
"cgroup_struct_ops_link_ops" to have a separate link_ops implementation
that only handles the cgroup's struct_ops link.
Questions:
- Although this patch did not change it, it is not obvious to me how
the replace_effective_progs() and purge_effective_progs() handle
cases when there are existing BPF_F_PREORDER progs attached
in the hlist.
Misc notes:
- CGROUP_TCP_SOCK_OPS is added to the 'enum cgroup_bpf_attach_type'.
The actual implementation of the tcp_bpf_ops (a struct_ops)
will be added in the next patch.
- free_after_mult_rcu_gp is added to 'struct bpf_struct_ops' such that
the bpf_prog_array can have a mix of sleepable and
non-sleepable prog in a struct_ops. This can tell
how the bpf_prog_array should be freed.
- For a struct_ops that supports cgroup attachment, it does not need to
implement its own reg/unreg function. reg/unreg to a cgroup is
done by the common infrastructure added in this patch.
- The cgroup's struct_ops link only supports BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI.
This is enforced internally in cgroup_bpf_struct_ops_attach.
This should be consistent with the current prog's link
behavior in cgroup_bpf_link_attach.
In the future, we may allow each subsystem to choose differently.
- A cgroup_atype member is added to 'struct bpf_struct_ops'.
When a subsystem struct_ops needs to support cgroup attachment,
it needs to add a value to 'enum cgroup_bpf_attach_type'
and then assign it to the newly added cgroup_atype member
in the bpf_struct_ops.
- During LINK_CREATE in syscall, the patch uses the same
BPF_STRUCT_OPS (in attr->link_create.attach_type).
The bpf_struct_ops_link_create learns the map and
from the map it learns the st_ops. If the st_ops->cgroup_atype
is not 0, it will create a cgroup's link.
- When a subsystem registers a struct_ops that supports cgroup
attachment, the struct_ops infrastructure will also ask the
cgroup infrastructure to remember a few things. This is done
by calling cgroup_bpf_struct_ops_register().

A local struct_ops type can contain a bitfield absent from the
corresponding kernel BTF type. bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops() checks
whether data for an absent local member is zero.
For a bitfield, member->offset contains the bit offset and field width.
bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops() used the encoded value to calculate the
member data pointer before rejecting the bitfield. The zero-data check
could therefore read outside st_ops->data and crash libbpf.
Reject local bitfields before calculating the member data pointer. Keep
the existing rejection for bitfields in the kernel type.

When changing BPF program flags, applications often need to just add or
remove a single flag, without touching the existing ones. When using the
bpf_program__set_flags() function, this requires reading the existing
flags and doing bitwise manipulations before resetting the result, which
is slightly awkward to do, and easy to forget.
Add two new convenience helpers, bpf_program__add_flags() and
bpf_program__clear_flags(), which wraps bpf_program__set_flags() in the
bitwise operations required to modify flags without clobbering the
existing ones.

Add explicit padding before launch_time so xsk_tx_metadata has the same
layout on 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
On several architectures (csky, i386, nios2, m65k, openrisc, sh), the old
native 32-bit layout put launch_time at offset 12 and had a natural size of
20 bytes. Using sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) as tx_metadata_len was already
rejected because the length must be a multiple of eight, so the
straightforward use of the interface was broken on those ABIs. Userspace
could still register a padded length of 24 bytes, though; mixing the old and
new layouts then silently reads launch_time from the wrong offset and
misprograms packet launch times. This intentionally replaces that
incompatible layout because the affected architectures are unlikely to
have any notable users. (x86_64 and arm64 have the most users and are _not_
affected)

The libbpf section definition modifiers for XDP frags support and
sleepable programs stores the flags bits only in the private section
definition cookie from object open to load time. This has the
unfortunate consequence that API consumers cannot see (or manipulate)
the flag between object open and program load.
In particular, libxdp has special handling of frags-enabled programs to
make them compatible with the dispatcher. This doesn't work on XDP
programs that enable frags through the 'xdp.frags' section definition
because the flag is not visible through bpf_program__flags()[0].
Fix this by changing how libbpf loads the program flags from section
definitions: instead of using the private section definition cookie, add
a setup function to the default section definitions that stores the
flags for sleepable and XDP frags programs in the prog_flags field of
struct bpf_program.
Exposing the flags this way means that any use of
bpf_program__set_flags() will override the flags unless the caller takes
care of updating flags in a non-destructive way. This is unavoidable
with the set-only API, and any user setting flags unconditionally is
already broken in the sense that they will also override any other
current and future flags.
In addition, prog_flags survives program type changes through
bpf_program__set_type(). It is the responsibility of the caller to
ensure the flags are cleared if they are incompatible with the new
program type.

ringbuf_process_ring() walks the records between the consumer and the
producer with an ordering comparison:
while (cons_pos < prod_pos) {
cons_pos and prod_pos mirror the kernel's ring positions and are
unsigned long here too, so on 32-bit they wrap at 2^32 bytes of traffic.
When producer_pos has wrapped and consumer_pos has not, prod_pos is the
smaller of the two, the loop body never runs and no record is consumed.
Since consumer_pos only advances inside that loop, it never wraps either
and the consumer stops delivering samples for good, with no error
returned to the caller: ring_buffer__poll() keeps reporting zero
records while the kernel side fills up and starts dropping.
Compare the distance instead. The consumer never runs ahead of the
producer, so prod_pos - cons_pos is the amount of unconsumed data and
stays correct across the wrap.
64-bit hosts are unaffected in practice: the counters would need 16 EiB
to wrap. This is the userspace counterpart of the kernel-side walk fixed
in "bpf: Fix pending_pos walk on 32-bit ring position wrap"; a 32-bit

Enhance bpftool to generate skeletons that properly handle global percpu
variables. The generated skeleton now includes a dedicated structure for
percpu data, allowing users to initialize and access percpu variables more
efficiently.
For global percpu variables, the skeleton now includes a nested
structure, e.g.:
struct test_global_percpu_data {
struct bpf_object_skeleton *skeleton;
struct bpf_object *obj;
struct {
struct bpf_map *percpu;
} maps;
// ...
struct test_global_percpu_data__percpu {
int data;
char run;
struct {
char set;
int i;
int nums[7];
} struct_data;
int nums[7];
} *percpu;
// ...
};
* The "struct test_global_percpu_data__percpu *percpu" points to
initialized data, which is actually "maps.percpu->mmaped".
* Before loading the skeleton, updating the
"struct test_global_percpu_data__percpu *percpu" modifies the initial
value of the corresponding global percpu variables.
* After loading the skeleton, "maps.percpu->mmaped" has been marked as
read-only in libbpf. If users want to update the global percpu
variables, they have to update the "maps.percpu" map instead.
* For lightweight skeleton, "lskel->percpu" will be protected by
"mprotect(p, sz, PROT_READ)".
* For subskeleton, those variables of global percpu data will be
skipped.

BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN resolves a VLAN egress. The reverse is also
useful: an XDP program receiving a VLAN-tagged frame on a physical
device wants the lookup to behave as if the packet had arrived on the
corresponding VLAN subinterface, so iif-based policy routing and VRF
table selection use the right ingress.
Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT. When set, params->h_vlan_proto and
params->h_vlan_TCI are read as an input VLAN tag and the matching VLAN
device of params->ifindex is resolved with __vlan_find_dev_deep_rcu().
The device must be up and in the same network namespace as
params->ifindex (a VLAN device can be moved to another netns while
registered on its parent; receive would deliver into that other
namespace, which a lookup here cannot represent). If params->ifindex
is itself a VLAN device, its inner (QinQ) subinterface is matched.
For a bond or team, a tag on a port matches no device and returns
NOT_FWDED; pass the master's ifindex.
The lookup then runs with the resolved device as the ingress;
params->ifindex itself is not modified on the input side. When the
resolved device is enslaved to a VRF, both the full lookup (via the
l3mdev rule) and BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT (via l3mdev_fib_table_rcu())
select the VRF's table from the resolved ingress. That follows from
feeding the resolved device to the flow as the ingress
(fl4.flowi4_iif = dev->ifindex), which is what makes l3mdev resolve
the VRF master from the subinterface rather than from
params->ifindex.
The two failure classes get different treatment on purpose. A
h_vlan_proto other than 802.1Q/802.1ad is API misuse and returns
-EINVAL, since it would otherwise reach the WARN in vlan_proto_idx()
with a program-controlled value. An unmatched VID, a device that is
down, or one in another namespace is a data outcome and returns
BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NOT_FWDED, matching the DIRECT path when
fib_get_table() finds no table and mirroring real ingress, where the
receive path drops such frames. A VID of 0 (a priority tag) is looked
up literally and normally fails the same way; receive instead
processes such frames untagged, so callers should not set the flag for
priority tags. Proceeding on the physical device for any of these
would be fail-open for the policy-routing cases above.
The h_vlan fields share a union with tbid, so the flag cannot be
combined with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_TBID. It describes ingress, so it also
cannot be combined with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT. Both combinations
return -EINVAL; restricting now keeps a later relaxation backward
compatible. Combining with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN is allowed: the tag is
consumed on the ingress side and the egress tag is written on
success.
Under !CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q the __vlan_find_dev_deep_rcu() stub returns
NULL, so every lookup with a valid proto returns NOT_FWDED, which is
correct since no VLAN device can exist.

bpf_fib_lookup() returns the FIB-resolved egress ifindex straight
from the fib result. When the egress is a VLAN device, the returned
ifindex is the VLAN netdev's, which has no XDP xmit handler; XDP
programs that want to forward the frame (e.g. xdp-forward) must
instead target the underlying physical device and push the VLAN tag
themselves. Today the program has no way to learn either the
underlying ifindex or the VLAN tag without maintaining its own
VLAN-to-ifindex map in userspace and refreshing it on netlink
events.
Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN. When the caller sets this flag and the fib
result is a VLAN device whose immediate parent is a real (non-VLAN)
device in the same network namespace, populate the existing output
fields params->h_vlan_proto and params->h_vlan_TCI from the VLAN
device and replace params->ifindex with the parent's ifindex.
params->h_vlan_TCI carries the VID only, with PCP and DEI bits zero; a
consumer wanting to set egress priority writes PCP itself.
params->smac is the VLAN device's own address, which can differ from
the parent's.
Only the immediate parent is resolved, via vlan_dev_priv(dev)->real_dev
and not vlan_dev_real_dev(), which walks to the bottom of a stack. When
the immediate parent is not a real device in the same namespace, the
lookup returns BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_VLAN_FAILURE and leaves params->ifindex
at the input. This covers a stacked VLAN (QinQ), where the immediate
parent is itself a VLAN device and one h_vlan_proto/h_vlan_TCI pair
cannot describe two tags, and a parent in another network namespace (a
VLAN device can be moved while its parent stays), whose ifindex would
be meaningless in the caller's namespace. A program that wants the
VLAN device's own ifindex re-issues the lookup, with a re-initialized
params, without BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN, so the unreducible case stays
distinct from a physical egress. That distinction matters for XDP: a
program cannot xmit on a VLAN device, so a success carrying the VLAN
ifindex would make it redirect to a device with no ndo_xdp_xmit and
drop the frame at xdp_do_flush(). The swap and the vlan fields are
written only on the reduce path; other output fields keep their
existing behaviour, so a frag-needed result still reports the route
mtu in params->mtu_result.
BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN is only useful to XDP, which cannot redirect to a
VLAN device. A tc program can redirect to the VLAN device directly, so
bpf_skb_fib_lookup() rejects the flag with -EINVAL; bpf_xdp_fib_lookup()
accepts it. When the flag is not set, behaviour is unchanged:
h_vlan_proto and h_vlan_TCI are zeroed and ifindex is left at the FIB
result.
The new block is compiled only under CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q since
vlan_dev_priv() is not defined otherwise; without that config
is_vlan_dev() is constant false and the flag is accepted but never
acts. That is safe because no VLAN device can exist there, so every
egress is already physical.
This lets an XDP redirect target the physical device and learn the
tag to push in a single lookup, which xdp-forward's optional VLAN
mode (xdp-project/xdp-tools#504) wants from the kernel side.
The helper's input semantics are unchanged; the reverse direction
(supplying a tag as lookup input) is added in the following patch.
