Fix SIGSEGV caused by libbpf trying to find attach type in vmlinux BTF
for freplace programs. It's wrong to search in vmlinux BTF and libbpf
doesn't even mark vmlinux BTF as required for freplace programs. So
trying to search anything in obj->vmlinux_btf might cause NULL
dereference if nothing else in BPF object requires vmlinux BTF.
Instead, error out if freplace (EXT) program doesn't specify
attach_prog_fd during at the load time.

Make sure that entire libbpf code base is initializing bpf_attr and
perf_event_attr with memset(0). Also for bpf_attr make sure we
clear and pass to kernel only relevant parts of bpf_attr. bpf_attr is
a huge union of independent sub-command attributes, so there is no need
to clear and pass entire union bpf_attr, which over time grows quite
a lot and for most commands this growth is completely irrelevant.
Few cases where we were relying on compiler initialization of BPF UAPI

As suggested in [0], make sure that libbpf_print saves and restored
errno and as such guaranteed that no matter what actual print callback
user installs, macros like pr_warn/pr_info/pr_debug are completely
transparent as far as errno goes.
While libbpf code is pretty careful about not clobbering important errno
values accidentally with pr_warn(), it's a trivial change to make sure
that pr_warn can be used anywhere without a risk of clobbering errno.
No functional changes, just future proofing.

Make libbpf adjust RINGBUF map size (rounding it up to closest power-of-2
of page_size) more eagerly: during open phase when initializing the map
and on explicit calls to bpf_map__set_max_entries().
Such approach allows user to check actual size of BPF ringbuf even
before it's created in the kernel, but also it prevents various edge
case scenarios where BPF ringbuf size can get out of sync with what it
would be in kernel. One of them (reported in [0]) is during an attempt
to pin/reuse BPF ringbuf.
Move adjust_ringbuf_sz() helper closer to its first actual use. The
implementation of the helper is unchanged.
Also make detection of whether bpf_object is already loaded more robust
by checking obj->loaded explicitly, given that map->fd can be < 0 even
if bpf_object is already loaded due to ability to disable map creation
with bpf_map__set_autocreate(map, false).

Add SEC("ksyscall")/SEC("ksyscall/<syscall_name>") and corresponding
kretsyscall variants (for return kprobes) to allow users to kprobe
syscall functions in kernel. These special sections allow to ignore
complexities and differences between kernel versions and host
architectures when it comes to syscall wrapper and corresponding
__<arch>_sys_<syscall> vs __se_sys_<syscall> differences, depending on
whether host kernel has CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER (though libbpf
itself doesn't rely on /proc/config.gz for detecting this, see
BPF_KSYSCALL patch for how it's done internally).
Combined with the use of BPF_KSYSCALL() macro, this allows to just
specify intended syscall name and expected input arguments and leave
dealing with all the variations to libbpf.
In addition to SEC("ksyscall+") and SEC("kretsyscall+") add
bpf_program__attach_ksyscall() API which allows to specify syscall name
at runtime and provide associated BPF cookie value.
At the moment SEC("ksyscall") and bpf_program__attach_ksyscall() do not
handle all the calling convention quirks for mmap(), clone() and compat
syscalls. It also only attaches to "native" syscall interfaces. If host
system supports compat syscalls or defines 32-bit syscalls in 64-bit
kernel, such syscall interfaces won't be attached to by libbpf.
These limitations may or may not change in the future. Therefore it is
recommended to use SEC("kprobe") for these syscalls or if working with
compat and 32-bit interfaces is required.

Improve BPF_KPROBE_SYSCALL (and rename it to shorter BPF_KSYSCALL to
match libbpf's SEC("ksyscall") section name, added in next patch) to use
__kconfig variable to determine how to properly fetch syscall arguments.
Instead of relying on hard-coded knowledge of whether kernel's
architecture uses syscall wrapper or not (which only reflects the latest
kernel versions, but is not necessarily true for older kernels and won't
necessarily hold for later kernel versions on some particular host
architecture), determine this at runtime by attempting to create
perf_event (with fallback to kprobe event creation through tracefs on
legacy kernels, just like kprobe attachment code is doing) for kernel
function that would correspond to bpf() syscall on a system that has
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER set (e.g., for x86-64 it would try
'__x64_sys_bpf').
If host kernel uses syscall wrapper, syscall kernel function's first
argument is a pointer to struct pt_regs that then contains syscall
arguments. In such case we need to use bpf_probe_read_kernel() to fetch
actual arguments (which we do through BPF_CORE_READ() macro) from inner
pt_regs.
But if the kernel doesn't use syscall wrapper approach, input
arguments can be read from struct pt_regs directly with no probe reading.
All this feature detection is done without requiring /proc/config.gz
existence and parsing, and BPF-side helper code uses newly added
LINUX_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER virtual __kconfig extern to keep in sync with
user-side feature detection of libbpf.
BPF_KSYSCALL() macro can be used both with SEC("kprobe") programs that
define syscall function explicitly (e.g., SEC("kprobe/__x64_sys_bpf"))
and SEC("ksyscall") program added in the next patch (which are the same
kprobe program with added benefit of libbpf determining correct kernel
function name automatically).
Kretprobe and kretsyscall (added in next patch) programs don't need
BPF_KSYSCALL as they don't provide access to input arguments. Normal
BPF_KRETPROBE is completely sufficient and is recommended.

Libbpf supports single virtual __kconfig extern currently: LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION.
LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION isn't coming from /proc/kconfig.gz and is intead
customly filled out by libbpf.
This patch generalizes this approach to support more such virtual
__kconfig externs. One such extern added in this patch is
LINUX_HAS_BPF_COOKIE which is used for BPF-side USDT supporting code in
usdt.bpf.h instead of using CO-RE-based enum detection approach for
detecting bpf_get_attach_cookie() BPF helper. This allows to remove
otherwise not needed CO-RE dependency and keeps user-space and BPF-side
parts of libbpf's USDT support strictly in sync in terms of their
feature detection.
We'll use similar approach for syscall wrapper detection for
BPF_KSYSCALL() BPF-side macro in follow up patch.
Generally, currently libbpf reserves CONFIG_ prefix for Kconfig values
and LINUX_ for virtual libbpf-backed externs. In the future we might
extend the set of prefixes that are supported. This can be done without
any breaking changes, as currently any __kconfig extern with
unrecognized name is rejected.
For LINUX_xxx externs we support the normal "weak rule": if libbpf
doesn't recognize given LINUX_xxx extern but such extern is marked as
__weak, it is not rejected and defaults to zero. This follows
CONFIG_xxx handling logic and will allow BPF applications to
opportunistically use newer libbpf virtual externs without breaking on
older libbpf versions unnecessarily.

Perform the same virtual address to file offset translation that libbpf
is doing for executable ELF binaries also for shared libraries.
Currently libbpf is making a simplifying and sometimes wrong assumption
that for shared libraries relative virtual addresses inside ELF are
always equal to file offsets.
Unfortunately, this is not always the case with LLVM's lld linker, which
now by default generates quite more complicated ELF segments layout.
E.g., for liburandom_read.so from selftests/bpf, here's an excerpt from
readelf output listing ELF segments (a.k.a. program headers):
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
PHDR 0x000040 0x0000000000000040 0x0000000000000040 0x0001f8 0x0001f8 R 0x8

Compare that to what is generated by GNU ld (or LLVM lld's with extra
-znoseparate-code argument which disables this cleverness in the name of
file size reduction):
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
LOAD 0x000000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x000550 0x000550 R 0x1000

You can see from the first example above that for executable (Flg == "R E")
PT_LOAD segment (LOAD #2), Offset doesn't match VirtAddr columns.
And it does in the second case (GNU ld output).
This is important because all the addresses, including USDT specs,
operate in a virtual address space, while kernel is expecting file
offsets when performing uprobe attach. So such mismatches have to be
properly taken care of and compensated by libbpf, which is what this
patch is fixing.
Also patch clarifies few function and variable names, as well as updates
comments to reflect this important distinction (virtaddr vs file offset)
and to ephasize that shared libraries are not all that different from
executables in this regard.
This patch also changes selftests/bpf Makefile to force urand_read and
liburand_read.so to be built with Clang and LLVM's lld (and explicitly
request this ELF file size optimization through -znoseparate-code linker
parameter) to validate libbpf logic and ensure regressions don't happen
in the future. I've bundled these selftests changes together with libbpf
changes to keep the above description tied with both libbpf and
selftests changes.

Add high-level API wrappers for most common and typical BPF map
operations that works directly on instances of struct bpf_map * (so
you don't have to call bpf_map__fd()) and validate key/value size
expectations.
These helpers require users to specify key (and value, where
appropriate) sizes when performing lookup/update/delete/etc. This forces
user to actually think and validate (for themselves) those. This is
a good thing as user is expected by kernel to implicitly provide correct
key/value buffer sizes and kernel will just read/write necessary amount
of data. If it so happens that user doesn't set up buffers correctly
(which bit people for per-CPU maps especially) kernel either randomly
overwrites stack data or return -EFAULT, depending on user's luck and
circumstances. These high-level APIs are meant to prevent such
unpleasant and hard to debug bugs.
This patch also adds bpf_map_delete_elem_flags() low-level API and
requires passing flags to bpf_map__delete_elem() API for consistency
across all similar APIs, even though currently kernel doesn't expect
any extra flags for BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM operation.

- bpf_map_lookup_elem;
- bpf_map_update_elem;
- bpf_map_delete_elem;
- bpf_map_lookup_and_delete_elem;

Kernel imposes a pretty particular restriction on ringbuf map size. It
has to be a power-of-2 multiple of page size. While generally this isn't
hard for user to satisfy, sometimes it's impossible to do this
declaratively in BPF source code or just plain inconvenient to do at
runtime.
One such example might be BPF libraries that are supposed to work on
different architectures, which might not agree on what the common page
size is.
Let libbpf find the right size for user instead, if it turns out to not
satisfy kernel requirements. If user didn't set size at all, that's most
probably a mistake so don't upsize such zero size to one full page,
though. Also we need to be careful about not overflowing __u32

Add bpf_map__set_autocreate() API that allows user to opt-out from
libbpf automatically creating BPF map during BPF object load.
This is a useful feature when building CO-RE-enabled BPF application
that takes advantage of some new-ish BPF map type (e.g., socket-local
storage) if kernel supports it, but otherwise uses some alternative way
(e.g., extra HASH map). In such case, being able to disable the creation
of a map that kernel doesn't support allows to successfully create and
load BPF object file with all its other maps and programs.
It's still up to user to make sure that no "live" code in any of their BPF
programs are referencing such map instance, which can be achieved by
guarding such code with CO-RE relocation check or by using .rodata
global variables.
If user fails to properly guard such code to turn it into "dead code",
libbpf will helpfully post-process BPF verifier log and will provide
more meaningful error and map name that needs to be guarded properly. As
such, instead of:

In a lot of cases the target of kprobe/kretprobe, tracepoint, raw
tracepoint, etc BPF program might not be known at the compilation time
and will be discovered at runtime. This was always a supported case by
libbpf, with APIs like bpf_program__attach_{kprobe,tracepoint,etc}()
accepting full target definition, regardless of what was defined in
SEC() definition in BPF source code.
Unfortunately, up till now libbpf still enforced users to specify at
least something for the fake target, e.g., SEC("kprobe/whatever"), which
is cumbersome and somewhat misleading.
This patch allows target-less SEC() definitions for basic tracing BPF
program types:
- kprobe/kretprobe;
- multi-kprobe/multi-kretprobe;
- tracepoints;
- raw tracepoints.
Such target-less SEC() definitions are meant to specify declaratively
proper BPF program type only. Attachment of them will have to be handled

Teach libbpf to post-process BPF verifier log on BPF program load

Currently there is one such common situation: an "unguarded" failed BPF

expected to be property guarded in BPF code such that BPF verifier
always eliminates BPF instructions corresponding to such failed CO-RE
relos as dead code. In cases when user failed to take such precautions,
BPF verifier provides the best log it can:
123: (85) call unknown#195896080
invalid func unknown#195896080
Such incomprehensible log error is due to libbpf "poisoning" BPF
instruction that corresponds to failed CO-RE relocation by replacing it
with invalid `call 0xbad2310` instruction (195896080 == 0xbad2310 reads
"bad relo" if you squint hard enough).
Luckily, libbpf has all the necessary information to look up CO-RE
relocation that failed and provide more human-readable description of
what's going on:
5: <invalid CO-RE relocation>
failed to resolve CO-RE relocation <byte_off> [6] struct task_struct___bad.fake_field_subprog (0:2 @ offset 8)
This hopefully makes it much easier to understand what's wrong with
user's BPF program without googling magic constants.
This BPF verifier log fixup is setup to be extensible and is going to be
used for at least one other upcoming feature of libbpf in follow up patches.
Libbpf is parsing lines of BPF verifier log starting from the very end.
Currently it processes up to 10 lines of code looking for familiar
patterns. This avoids wasting lots of CPU processing huge verifier logs
(especially for log_level=2 verbosity level). Actual verification error
should normally be found in last few lines, so this should work
reliably.
If libbpf needs to expand log beyond available log_buf_size, it
truncates the end of the verifier log. Given verifier log normally ends
with something like:
processed 2 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 0 total_states 0 peak_states 0 mark_read 0
... truncating this on program load error isn't too bad (end user can
always increase log size, if it needs to get complete log).

Refactor how CO-RE relocation is formatted. Now it dumps human-readable
representation, currently used by libbpf in either debug or error
message output during CO-RE relocation resolution process, into provided
buffer. This approach allows for better reuse of this functionality
outside of CO-RE relocation resolution, which we'll use in next patch
for providing better error message for BPF verifier rejecting BPF
program due to unguarded failed CO-RE relocation.
It also gets rid of annoying "stitching" of libbpf_print() calls, which
was the only place where we did this.

Previously, libbpf recorded CO-RE relocations with insns_idx resolved
according to finalized subprog locations (which are appended at the end
of entry BPF program) to simplify the job of light skeleton generator.
This is necessary because once subprogs' instructions are appended to
main entry BPF program all the subprog instruction indices are shifted
and that shift is different for each entry (main) BPF program, so it's
generally impossible to map final absolute insn_idx of the finalized BPF
program to their original locations inside subprograms.
This information is now going to be used not only during light skeleton
generation, but also to map absolute instruction index to subprog's
instruction and its corresponding CO-RE relocation. So start recording
these relocations always, not just when obj->gen_loader is set.
This information is going to be freed at the end of bpf_object__load()
step, as before (but this can change in the future if there will be
a need for this information post load step).

Instead of using ELF section names as a joining key between .BTF.ext and
corresponding BPF programs, pre-build .BTF.ext section number to ELF
section index mapping during bpf_object__open() and use it later for
matching .BTF.ext information (func/line info or CO-RE relocations) to
their respective BPF programs and subprograms.
This simplifies corresponding joining logic and let's libbpf do
manipulations with BPF program's ELF sections like dropping leading '?'
character for non-autoloaded programs. Original joining logic in
bpf_object__relocate_core() (see relevant comment that's now removed)
was never elegant, so it's a good improvement regardless. But it also
avoids unnecessary internal assumptions about preserving original ELF
section name as BPF program's section name (which was broken when
SEC("?abc") support was added).

libbpf pretends it knows actual limit of BPF program instructions based
on UAPI headers it compiled with. There is neither any guarantee that
UAPI headers match host kernel, nor BPF verifier actually uses
BPF_MAXINSNS constant anymore. Just drop unhelpful "guess", BPF verifier
will emit actual reason for failure in its logs anyways.

Teach bpf_link_create() to fallback to bpf_raw_tracepoint_open() on
older kernels for programs that are attachable through
BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN. This makes bpf_link_create() more unified and
convenient interface for creating bpf_link-based attachments.
With this approach end users can just use bpf_link_create() for
tp_btf/fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm program attachments without needing to
care about kernel support, as libbpf will handle this transparently. On
the other hand, as newer features (like BPF cookie) are added to
LINK_CREATE interface, they will be readily usable though the same
bpf_link_create() API without any major refactoring from user's
standpoint.
bpf_program__attach_btf_id() is now using bpf_link_create() internally
as well and will take advantaged of this unified interface when BPF
cookie is added for fentry/fexit.
Doing proactive feature detection of LINK_CREATE support for
fentry/tp_btf/etc is quite involved. It requires parsing vmlinux BTF,
determining some stable and guaranteed to be in all kernels versions
target BTF type (either raw tracepoint or fentry target function),
actually attaching this program and thus potentially affecting the
performance of the host kernel briefly, etc. So instead we are taking
much simpler "lazy" approach of falling back to
bpf_raw_tracepoint_open() call only if initial LINK_CREATE command
fails. For modern kernels this will mean zero added overhead, while
older kernels will incur minimal overhead with a single fast-failing
LINK_CREATE call.

Establish SEC("?abc") naming convention (i.e., adding question mark in
front of otherwise normal section name) that allows to set corresponding
program's autoload property to false. This is effectively just
a declarative way to do bpf_program__set_autoload(prog, false).
Having a way to do this declaratively in BPF code itself is useful and
convenient for various scenarios. E.g., for testing, when BPF object
consists of multiple independent BPF programs that each needs to be
tested separately. Opting out all of them by default and then setting
autoload to true for just one of them at a time simplifies testing code
(see next patch for few conversions in BPF selftests taking advantage of
this new feature).
Another real-world use case is in libbpf-tools for cases when different
BPF programs have to be picked depending on particulars of the host
kernel due to various incompatible changes (like kernel function renames
or signature change, or to pick kprobe vs fentry depending on
corresponding kernel support for the latter). Marking all the different
BPF program candidates as non-autoloaded declaratively makes this more
obvious in BPF source code and allows simpler code in user-space code.
When BPF program marked as SEC("?abc") it is otherwise treated just like
SEC("abc") and bpf_program__section_name() reported will be "abc".

Use __weak __hidden for bpf_usdt_xxx() APIs instead of much more
confusing `static inline __noinline`. This was previously impossible due
to libbpf erroring out on CO-RE relocations pointing to eliminated weak
subprogs. Now that previous patch fixed this issue, switch back to
__weak __hidden as it's a more direct way of specifying the desired

During BPF static linking, all the ELF relocations and .BTF.ext
information (including CO-RE relocations) are preserved for __weak
subprograms that were logically overriden by either previous weak
subprogram instance or by corresponding "strong" (non-weak) subprogram.
This is just how native user-space linkers work, nothing new.
But libbpf is over-zealous when processing CO-RE relocation to error out
when CO-RE relocation belonging to such eliminated weak subprogram is
encountered. Instead of erroring out on this expected situation, log
debug-level message and skip the relocation.

During BTF fix up for global variables, global variable can be global
weak and will have STB_WEAK binding in ELF. Support such global
variables in addition to non-weak ones.
This is not the problem when using BPF static linking, as BPF static
linker "fixes up" BTF during generation so that libbpf doesn't have to
do it anymore during bpf_object__open(), which led to this not being
noticed for a while, along with a pretty rare (currently) use of __weak
variables and maps.
