e64e125ef6 vfs: use UAPI types for new struct delegation definition
Using libc types and headers from the UAPI headers is problematic as it
introduces a dependency on a full C toolchain.

Use the fixed-width integer types provided by the UAPI headers instead.

Fixes: 4be9e04ebf75 ("vfs: add needed headers for new struct delegation definition")

9dd6fda504 libbpf: Move arena globals to the end of the arena
Arena globals are currently placed at the beginning of the arena
by libbpf. This is convenient, but prevents users from reserving
guard pages in the beginning of the arena to identify NULL pointer
dereferences. Adjust the load logic to place the globals at the
end of the arena instead.

Also modify bpftool to set the arena pointer in the program's BPF
skeleton to point to the globals. Users now call bpf_map__initial_value()
to find the beginning of the arena mapping and use the arena pointer
in the skeleton to determine which part of the mapping holds the
arena globals and which part is free.

2c7fe6ec5d libbpf: Turn relo_core->sym_off unsigned
The symbols' relocation offsets in BPF are stored in an int field,
but cannot actually be negative. When in the next patch libbpf relocates
globals to the end of the arena, it is also possible to have valid
offsets > 2GiB that are used to calculate the final relo offsets.
Avoid accidentally interpreting large offsets as negative by turning
the sym_off field unsigned.

1a41b12b4f bpf: Support associating BPF program with struct_ops
Add a new BPF command BPF_PROG_ASSOC_STRUCT_OPS to allow associating
a BPF program with a struct_ops map. This command takes a file
descriptor of a struct_ops map and a BPF program and set
prog->aux->st_ops_assoc to the kdata of the struct_ops map.

The command does not accept a struct_ops program nor a non-struct_ops
map. Programs of a struct_ops map is automatically associated with the
map during map update. If a program is shared between two struct_ops
maps, prog->aux->st_ops_assoc will be poisoned to indicate that the
associated struct_ops is ambiguous. The pointer, once poisoned, cannot
be reset since we have lost track of associated struct_ops. For other
program types, the associated struct_ops map, once set, cannot be
changed later. This restriction may be lifted in the future if there is
a use case.

A kernel helper bpf_prog_get_assoc_struct_ops() can be used to retrieve
the associated struct_ops pointer. The returned pointer, if not NULL, is
guaranteed to be valid and point to a fully updated struct_ops struct.
For struct_ops program reused in multiple struct_ops map, the return
will be NULL.

prog->aux->st_ops_assoc is protected by bumping the refcount for
non-struct_ops programs and RCU for struct_ops programs. Since it would
be inefficient to track programs associated with a struct_ops map, every
non-struct_ops program will bump the refcount of the map to make sure
st_ops_assoc stays valid. For a struct_ops program, it is protected by
RCU as map_free will wait for an RCU grace period before disassociating
the program with the map. The helper must be called in BPF program
context or RCU read-side critical section.

struct_ops implementers should note that the struct_ops returned may not
be initialized nor attached yet. The struct_ops implementer will be
responsible for tracking and checking the state of the associated
struct_ops map if the use case expects an initialized or attached
struct_ops.

8ffe064aed libbpf: Add debug messaging in dedup equivalence/identity matching
We have seen a number of issues like [1]; failures to deduplicate
key kernel data structures like task_struct.  These are often hard
to debug from pahole even with verbose output, especially when
identity/equivalence checks fail deep in a nested struct comparison.

Here we add debug messages of the form

libbpf: STRUCT 'task_struct' size=2560 vlen=194 cand_id[54222] canon_id[102820] shallow-equal but not equiv for field#23 'sched_class': 0

These will be emitted during dedup from pahole when --verbose/-V
is specified.  This greatly helps identify exactly where dedup
failures are experienced.

cd173d0ea3 net: Extend NAPI threaded polling to allow kthread based busy polling
Add a new state NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL to the NAPI state enum to
enable and disable threaded busy polling.

When threaded busy polling is enabled for a NAPI, enable
NAPI_STATE_THREADED also.

When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to
signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts.

Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the
NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread
go to sleep.

3fe0a72123 bpf: Introduce SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM.
If a socket has sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem flagged, the socket opts out
of the global protocol memory accounting.

This is easily controlled by net.core.bypass_prot_mem sysctl, but it
lacks flexibility.

Let's support flagging (and clearing) sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem via
bpf_setsockopt() at the BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE hook.

  int val = 1;

  bpf_setsockopt(ctx, SOL_SOCKET, SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM,
                 &val, sizeof(val));

As with net.core.bypass_prot_mem, this is inherited to child sockets,
and BPF always takes precedence over sysctl at socket(2) and accept(2).

SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM is only supported at BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE
and not supported on other hooks for some reasons:

  1. UDP charges memory under sk->sk_receive_queue.lock instead
     of lock_sock()

  2. Modifying the flag after skb is charged to sk requires such
     adjustment during bpf_setsockopt() and complicates the logic
     unnecessarily

We can support other hooks later if a real use case justifies that.

Most changes are inline and hard to trace, but a microbenchmark on
__sk_mem_raise_allocated() during neper/tcp_stream showed that more
samples completed faster with sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem == 1.  This will
be more visible under tcp_mem pressure (but it's not a fair comparison).

  # bpftrace -e 'kprobe:__sk_mem_raise_allocated { @start[tid] = nsecs; }
    kretprobe:__sk_mem_raise_allocated /@start[tid]/
    { @end[tid] = nsecs - @start[tid]; @times = hist(@end[tid]); delete(@start[tid]); }'
  # tcp_stream -6 -F 1000 -N -T 256

370271441c libbpf: Fix BTF dedup to support recursive typedef definitions
Handle recursive typedefs in BTF deduplication

Pahole fails to encode BTF for some Go projects (e.g. Kubernetes and
Podman) due to recursive type definitions that create reference loops
not representable in C. These recursive typedefs trigger a failure in
the BTF deduplication algorithm.

This patch extends btf_dedup_ref_type() to properly handle potential
recursion for BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF, similar to how recursion is already
handled for BTF_KIND_STRUCT. This allows pahole to successfully
generate BTF for Go binaries using recursive types without impacting
existing C-based workflows.

8d178bd7b6 perf: Support deferred user unwind
Add support for deferred userspace unwind to perf.

Where perf currently relies on in-place stack unwinding; from NMI
context and all that. This moves the userspace part of the unwind to
right before the return-to-userspace.

This has two distinct benefits, the biggest is that it moves the
unwind to a faultable context. It becomes possible to fault in debug
info (.eh_frame, SFrame etc.) that might not otherwise be readily
available. And secondly, it de-duplicates the user callchain where
multiple samples happen during the same kernel entry.

To facilitate this the perf interface is extended with a new record
type:

  PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED

and two new attribute flags:

  perf_event_attr::defer_callchain - to request the user unwind be deferred
  perf_event_attr::defer_output    - to request PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records

The existing PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE callchain section gets a new
context type:

  PERF_CONTEXT_USER_DEFERRED

After which will come a single entry, denoting the 'cookie' of the
deferred callchain that should be attached here, matching the 'cookie'
field of the above mentioned PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED.

The 'defer_callchain' flag is expected on all events with
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The 'defer_output' flag is expect on the event
responsible for collecting side-band events (like mmap, comm etc.).
Setting 'defer_output' on multiple events will get you duplicated
PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records.

Based on earlier patches by Josh and Steven.

Note that this also allows userland to request a FL_DELEG type lease on

limitation of FL_LEASE leases).

These commands accept a new "struct delegation" argument that contains a

a00b10df8c bpf: add _impl suffix for bpf_stream_vprintk() kfunc
Rename bpf_stream_vprintk() to bpf_stream_vprintk_impl().

This makes bpf_stream_vprintk() follow the already established "_impl"
suffix-based naming convention for kfuncs with the bpf_prog_aux
argument provided by the verifier implicitly. This convention will be
taken advantage of with the upcoming KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS feature to
preserve backwards compatibility to BPF programs.

24a89cb35d libbpf: support llvm-generated indirect jumps
For v4 instruction set LLVM is allowed to generate indirect jumps for
switch statements and for 'goto *rX' assembly. Every such a jump will
be accompanied by necessary metadata, e.g. (`llvm-objdump -Sr ...`):

       0:       r2 = 0x0 ll
                0000000000000030:  R_BPF_64_64  BPF.JT.0.0

Here BPF.JT.1.0 is a symbol residing in the .jumptables section:

    Symbol table:
       4: 0000000000000000   240 OBJECT  GLOBAL DEFAULT     4 BPF.JT.0.0

The -bpf-min-jump-table-entries llvm option may be used to control the
minimal size of a switch which will be converted to an indirect jumps.

9d159773c5 bpf, x86: add new map type: instructions array
On bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) syscall user-supplied BPF programs are
translated by the verifier into "xlated" BPF programs. During this
process the original instructions offsets might be adjusted and/or
individual instructions might be replaced by new sets of instructions,
or deleted.

Add a new BPF map type which is aimed to keep track of how, for a
given program, the original instructions were relocated during the
verification. Also, besides keeping track of the original -> xlated
mapping, make x86 JIT to build the xlated -> jitted mapping for every
instruction listed in an instruction array. This is required for every
future application of instruction arrays: static keys, indirect jumps
and indirect calls.

A map of the BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY type must be created with a u32
keys and value of size 8. The values have different semantics for
userspace and for BPF space. For userspace a value consists of two
u32 values – xlated and jitted offsets. For BPF side the value is
a real pointer to a jitted instruction.

On map creation/initialization, before loading the program, each
element of the map should be initialized to point to an instruction
offset within the program. Before the program load such maps should
be made frozen. After the program verification xlated and jitted
offsets can be read via the bpf(2) syscall.

If a tracked instruction is removed by the verifier, then the xlated
offset is set to (u32)-1 which is considered to be too big for a valid
BPF program offset.

One such a map can, obviously, be used to track one and only one BPF
program.  If the verification process was unsuccessful, then the same
map can be re-used to verify the program with a different log level.
However, if the program was loaded fine, then such a map, being
frozen in any case, can't be reused by other programs even after the
program release.

Example. Consider the following original and xlated programs:

    Original prog:                      Xlated prog:

     0:  r1 = 0x0                        0: r1 = 0
     1:  *(u32 *)(r10 - 0x4) = r1        1: *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1
     2:  r2 = r10                        2: r2 = r10
     3:  r2 += -0x4                      3: r2 += -4
     4:  r1 = 0x0 ll                     4: r1 = map[id:88]
     6:  call 0x1                        6: r1 += 272
                                         7: r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0)
                                         8: if r0 >= 0x1 goto pc+3
                                         9: r0 <<= 3
                                        10: r0 += r1
                                        11: goto pc+1
                                        12: r0 = 0
     7:  r6 = r0                        13: r6 = r0
     8:  if r6 == 0x0 goto +0x2         14: if r6 == 0x0 goto pc+4
     9:  call 0x76                      15: r0 = 0xffffffff8d2079c0
                                        17: r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +0)
    10:  *(u64 *)(r6 + 0x0) = r0        18: *(u64 *)(r6 +0) = r0
    11:  r0 = 0x0                       19: r0 = 0x0
    12:  exit                           20: exit

An instruction array map, containing, e.g., instructions [0,4,7,12]
will be translated by the verifier to [0,4,13,20]. A map with
index 5 (the middle of 16-byte instruction) or indexes greater than 12
(outside the program boundaries) would be rejected.

The functionality provided by this patch will be extended in consequent
patches to implement BPF Static Keys, indirect jumps, and indirect calls.

0e14a12a1d libbpf: Fix parsing of multi-split BTF
When creating multi-split BTF we correctly set the start string offset
to be the size of the base string section plus the base BTF start
string offset; the latter is needed for multi-split BTF since the
offset is non-zero there.

Unfortunately the BTF parsing case needed that logic and it was
missed.

In the elf_sec_data() function, the input parameter 'scn' will be
evaluated. If it is NULL, then it will directly return NULL. Therefore,
the return value of the elf_sec_data() function already takes into
account the case where the input parameter scn is NULL. Therefore,
subsequently, the code only needs to check whether the return value of
the elf_sec_data() function is NULL.

665ad8c7f7 bpf: Add overwrite mode for BPF ring buffer
When the BPF ring buffer is full, a new event cannot be recorded until one
or more old events are consumed to make enough space for it. In cases such
as fault diagnostics, where recent events are more useful than older ones,
this mechanism may lead to critical events being lost.

So add overwrite mode for BPF ring buffer to address it. In this mode, the
new event overwrites the oldest event when the buffer is full.

The basic idea is as follows:

1. producer_pos tracks the next position to record new event. When there
   is enough free space, producer_pos is simply advanced by producer to
   make space for the new event.

2. To avoid waiting for consumer when the buffer is full, a new variable,
   overwrite_pos, is introduced for producer. It points to the oldest event
   committed in the buffer. It is advanced by producer to discard one or more
   oldest events to make space for the new event when the buffer is full.

3. pending_pos tracks the oldest event to be committed. pending_pos is never
   passed by producer_pos, so multiple producers never write to the same
   position at the same time.

The following example diagrams show how it works in a 4096-byte ring buffer.

1. At first, {producer,overwrite,pending,consumer}_pos are all set to 0.

   0       512      1024    1536     2048     2560     3072     3584       4096

   |                                                                       |
   |                                                                       |

producer_pos = 0
overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0

2. Now reserve a 512-byte event A.

   There is enough free space, so A is allocated at offset 0. And producer_pos
   is advanced to 512, the end of A. Since A is not submitted, the BUSY bit is
   set.

   0       512      1024    1536     2048     2560     3072     3584       4096

   |
overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0

3. Reserve event B, size 1024.

   B is allocated at offset 512 with BUSY bit set, and producer_pos is advanced
   to the end of B.

   0       512      1024    1536     2048     2560     3072     3584       4096

4. Reserve event C, size 2048.

   C is allocated at offset 1536, and producer_pos is advanced to 3584.

overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0

5. Submit event A.

   The BUSY bit of A is cleared. B becomes the oldest event to be committed, so
   pending_pos is advanced to 512, the start of B.

6. Submit event B.

   The BUSY bit of B is cleared, and pending_pos is advanced to the start of C,
   which is now the oldest event to be committed.

7. Reserve event D, size 1536 (3 * 512).

   There are 2048 bytes not being written between producer_pos (currently 3584)
   and pending_pos, so D is allocated at offset 3584, and producer_pos is advanced
   by 1536 (from 3584 to 5120).

   Since event D will overwrite all bytes of event A and the first 512 bytes of
   event B, overwrite_pos is advanced to the start of event C, the oldest event
   that is not overwritten.

8. Reserve event E, size 1024.

   Although there are 512 bytes not being written between producer_pos and
   pending_pos, E cannot be reserved, as it would overwrite the first 512
   bytes of event C, which is still being written.

9. Submit event C and D.

   pending_pos is advanced to the end of D.

The performance data for overwrite mode will be provided in a follow-up
patch that adds overwrite-mode benchmarks.

A sample of performance data for non-overwrite mode, collected on an x86_64
CPU and an arm64 CPU, before and after this patch, is shown below. As we can
see, no obvious performance regression occurs.

42995c95b9 bpf: widen dynptr size/offset to 64 bit
Dynptr currently caps size and offset at 24 bits, which isn’t sufficient
for file-backed use cases; even 32 bits can be limiting. Refactor dynptr
helpers/kfuncs to use 64-bit size and offset, ensuring consistency
across the APIs.

This change does not affect internals of xdp, skb or other dynptrs,
which continue to behave as before. Also it does not break binary
compatibility.

The widening enables large-file access support via dynptr, implemented
in the next patches.

Use tabs instead. (This also makes a consequent commit better readable.)

2b940bcde1 libbpf: Fix undefined behavior in {get,put}_unaligned_be32()
These violate aliasing rules and may be miscompiled unless
-fno-strict-aliasing is used.  Replace them with the standard memcpy()
solution.  Note that compilers know how to optimize this properly.

379ac32f2c bpf: Finish constification of 1st parameter of bpf_d_path()
The commit 1b8abbb12128 ("bpf...d_path(): constify path argument")
constified the first parameter of the bpf_d_path(), but failed to
update it in all places. Finish constification.

Otherwise the selftest fail to build:
.../selftests/bpf/bpf_experimental.h:222:12: error: conflicting types for 'bpf_path_d_path'
  222 | extern int bpf_path_d_path(const struct path *path, char *buf, size_t buf__sz) __ksym;
      |            ^
.../selftests/bpf/tools/include/vmlinux.h:153922:12: note: previous declaration is here
 153922 | extern int bpf_path_d_path(struct path *path, char *buf, size_t buf__sz) __weak __ksym;

eca524d5a6 libbpf: Fix missing #pragma in libbpf_utils.c
The recent sha256 patch uses a GCC pragma to suppress compile errors for
a packed struct, but omits a needed pragma (see related link) and thus
still raises errors: (e.g. on GCC 12.3 armhf)

libbpf_utils.c:153:29: error: packed attribute causes inefficient alignment for ‘__val’ [-Werror=attributes]
  153 | struct __packed_u32 { __u32 __val; } __attribute__((packed));
      |                             ^~~~~

Resolve by adding the GCC diagnostic pragma to ignore "-Wattributes".

50d1b8e6b4 libbpf: remove linux/unaligned.h dependency for libbpf_sha256()
linux/unaligned.h include dependency is causing issues for libbpf's
Github mirror due to {get,put}_unaligned_be32() usage.

So get rid of it by implementing custom variants of those macros that
will work both in kernel and Github mirror repos.

Also switch round_up() to roundup(), as the former is not available in
Github mirror (and is just a subtly more specific variant of roundup()
anyways).

ce015f0184 libbpf: remove unused libbpf_strerror_r and STRERR_BUFSIZE
libbpf_strerror_r() is not exposed as public API and neither is it used
inside libbpf itself. Remove it altogether.

Same for STRERR_BUFSIZE, it's just an orphaned leftover constant which
we missed to clean up some time earlier.
