This enables support for attaching freplace programs to multiple attach
points. It does this by amending the UAPI for bpf_link_Create with a target
btf ID that can be used to supply the new attachment point along with the
target program fd. The target must be compatible with the target that was
supplied at program load time.
The implementation reuses the checks that were factored out of
check_attach_btf_id() to ensure compatibility between the BTF types of the
old and new attachment. If these match, a new bpf_tracing_link will be
created for the new attach target, allowing multiple attachments to
co-exist simultaneously.
The code could theoretically support multiple-attach of other types of
tracing programs as well, but since I don't have a use case for any of
those, there is no API support for doing so.

Teach BTF to recognized wrong endianness and transparently convert it
internally to host endianness. Original endianness of BTF will be preserved
and used during btf__get_raw_data() to convert resulting raw data to the same
endianness and a source raw_data. This means that little-endian host can parse
big-endian BTF with no issues, all the type data will be presented to the
client application in native endianness, but when it's time for emitting BTF
to persist it in a file (e.g., after BTF deduplication), original non-native
endianness will be preserved and stored.
It's possible to query original endianness of BTF data with new
btf__endianness() API. It's also possible to override desired output
endianness with btf__set_endianness(), so that if application needs to load,
say, big-endian BTF and store it as little-endian BTF, it's possible to
manually override this. If btf__set_endianness() was used to change
endianness, btf__endianness() will reflect overridden endianness.
Given there are no known use cases for supporting cross-endianness for
.BTF.ext, loading .BTF.ext in non-native endianness is not supported.

for CO-RE relocations, line/func infos, etc. Thus "name_by_offset" terminology
is too specific and might be misleading. Instead, introduce

Add APIs for appending new BTF types at the end of BTF object.
Each BTF kind has either one API of the form btf__add_<kind>(). For types
that have variable amount of additional items (struct/union, enum, func_proto,
datasec), additional API is provided to emit each such item. E.g., for
emitting a struct, one would use the following sequence of API calls:
btf__add_struct(...);
btf__add_field(...);
...
btf__add_field(...);
Each btf__add_field() will ensure that the last BTF type is of STRUCT or
UNION kind and will automatically increment that type's vlen field.
All the strings are provided as C strings (const char *), not a string offset.
This significantly improves usability of BTF writer APIs. All such strings
will be automatically appended to string section or existing string will be
re-used, if such string was already added previously.
Each API attempts to do all the reasonable validations, like enforcing
non-empty names for entities with required names, proper value bounds, various
bit offset restrictions, etc.
Type ID validation is minimal because it's possible to emit a type that refers
to type that will be emitted later, so libbpf has no way to enforce such
cases. User must be careful to properly emit all the necessary types and
specify type IDs that will be valid in the finally generated BTF.
Each of btf__add_<kind>() APIs return new type ID on success or negative
value on error. APIs like btf__add_field() that emit additional items
return zero on success and negative value on error.

A helper is added to support tracing kernel type information in BPF
using the BPF Type Format (BTF). Its signature is
long bpf_snprintf_btf(char *str, u32 str_size, struct btf_ptr *ptr,
u32 btf_ptr_size, u64 flags);
struct btf_ptr * specifies
- a pointer to the data to be traced
- the BTF id of the type of data pointed to
- a flags field is provided for future use; these flags
are not to be confused with the BTF_F_* flags
below that control how the btf_ptr is displayed; the
flags member of the struct btf_ptr may be used to
disambiguate types in kernel versus module BTF, etc;
the main distinction is the flags relate to the type
and information needed in identifying it; not how it
is displayed.
For example a BPF program with a struct sk_buff *skb
could do the following:
static struct btf_ptr b = { };
b.ptr = skb;
b.type_id = __builtin_btf_type_id(struct sk_buff, 1);
bpf_snprintf_btf(str, sizeof(str), &b, sizeof(b), 0, 0);
Default output looks like this:
(struct sk_buff){
.transport_header = (__u16)65535,
.mac_header = (__u16)65535,
.end = (sk_buff_data_t)192,
.head = (unsigned char *)0x000000007524fd8b,
.data = (unsigned char *)0x000000007524fd8b,
.truesize = (unsigned int)768,
.users = (refcount_t){
.refs = (atomic_t){
.counter = (int)1,
},
},
}
Flags modifying display are as follows:
- BTF_F_COMPACT: no formatting around type information
- BTF_F_NONAME: no struct/union member names/types
- BTF_F_PTR_RAW: show raw (unobfuscated) pointer values;
equivalent to %px.
- BTF_F_ZERO: show zero-valued struct/union members;
they are not displayed by default

Allow internal BTF representation to switch from default read-only mode, in
which raw BTF data is a single non-modifiable block of memory with BTF header,
types, and strings layed out sequentially and contiguously in memory, into
a writable representation with types and strings data split out into separate
memory regions, that can be dynamically expanded.
Such writable internal representation is transparent to users of libbpf APIs,
but allows to append new types and strings at the end of BTF, which is
a typical use case when generating BTF programmatically. All the basic
guarantees of BTF types and strings layout is preserved, i.e., user can get
`struct btf_type *` pointer and read it directly. Such btf_type pointers might
be invalidated if BTF is modified, so some care is required in such mixed
read/write scenarios.
Switch from read-only to writable configuration happens automatically the
first time when user attempts to modify BTF by either adding a new type or new
string. It is still possible to get raw BTF data, which is a single piece of
memory that can be persisted in ELF section or into a file as raw BTF. Such
raw data memory is also still owned by BTF and will be freed either when BTF
object is freed or if another modification to BTF happens, as any modification
invalidates BTF raw representation.
This patch adds the first two BTF manipulation APIs: btf__add_str(), which
allows to add arbitrary strings to BTF string section, and btf__find_str()
which allows to find existing string offset, but not add it if it's missing.
All the added strings are automatically deduplicated. This is achieved by
maintaining an additional string lookup index for all unique strings. Such
index is built when BTF is switched to modifiable mode. If at that time BTF
strings section contained duplicate strings, they are not de-duplicated. This
is done specifically to not modify the existing content of BTF (types, their
string offsets, etc), which can cause confusion and is especially important
property if there is struct btf_ext associated with struct btf. By following
this "imperfect deduplication" process, btf_ext is kept consitent and correct.
If deduplication of strings is necessary, it can be forced by doing BTF
deduplication, at which point all the strings will be eagerly deduplicated and
all string offsets both in struct btf and struct btf_ext will be updated.

Refactor implementation of internal BTF type index to not use direct pointers.
Instead it uses offset relative to the start of types data section. This
allows for types data to be reallocatable, enabling implementation of
modifiable BTF.
As now getting type by ID has an extra indirection step, convert all internal
type lookups to a new helper btf_type_id(), that returns non-const pointer to
a type by its ID.

bpf_attr.test, BPF_F_TEST_RUN_ON_CPU. When this flag is set, the program
is triggered on cpu with id bpf_attr.test.cpu. This feature is needed for
BPF programs that handle perf_event and other percpu resources, as the

The previous patch allows the networking bpf prog to use the
bpf_skc_to_*() helpers to get a PTR_TO_BTF_ID socket pointer,
e.g. "struct tcp_sock *". It allows the bpf prog to read all the
fields of the tcp_sock.
This patch changes the bpf_sk_release() and bpf_sk_*cgroup_id()
to take ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_SOCK_COMMON such that they will
work with the pointer returned by the bpf_skc_to_*() helpers
also. For example, the following will work:
sk = bpf_skc_lookup_tcp(skb, tuple, tuplen, BPF_F_CURRENT_NETNS, 0);
if (!sk)
return;
tp = bpf_skc_to_tcp_sock(sk);
if (!tp) {
bpf_sk_release(sk);
return;
}
lsndtime = tp->lsndtime;
/* Pass tp to bpf_sk_release() will also work */
bpf_sk_release(tp);
Since PTR_TO_BTF_ID could be NULL, the helper taking
ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_SOCK_COMMON has to check for NULL at runtime.
A btf_id of "struct sock" may not always mean a fullsock. Regardless
the helper's running context may get a non-fullsock or not,
considering fullsock check/handling is pretty cheap, it is better to
keep the same verifier expectation on helper that takes ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID*
will be able to handle the minisock situation. In the bpf_sk_*cgroup_id()
case, it will try to get a fullsock by using sk_to_full_sk() as its
skb variant bpf_sk"b"_*cgroup_id() has already been doing.
bpf_sk_release can already handle minisock, so nothing special has to
be done.

BPF program title is ambigious and misleading term. It is ELF section name, so
let's just call it that and deprecate bpf_program__title() API in favor of
bpf_program__section_name().
Additionally, using bpf_object__find_program_by_title() is now inherently
dangerous and ambiguous, as multiple BPF program can have the same section
name. So deprecate this API as well and recommend to switch to non-ambiguous
bpf_object__find_program_by_name().

This patch implements general and correct logic for bpf-to-bpf sub-program
calls. Only sub-programs used (called into) from entry-point (main) BPF
program are going to be appended at the end of main BPF program. This ensures
that BPF verifier won't encounter any dead code due to copying unreferenced
sub-program. This change means that each entry-point (main) BPF program might
have a different set of sub-programs appended to it and potentially in
different order. This has implications on how sub-program call relocations
need to be handled, described below.
All relocations are now split into two categores: data references (maps and
global variables) and code references (sub-program calls). This distinction is
important because data references need to be relocated just once per each BPF
program and sub-program. These relocation are agnostic to instruction
locations, because they are not code-relative and they are relocating against
static targets (maps, variables with fixes offsets, etc).
Sub-program RELO_CALL relocations, on the other hand, are highly-dependent on
code position, because they are recorded as instruction-relative offset. So
BPF sub-programs (those that do calls into other sub-programs) can't be
relocated once, they need to be relocated each time such a sub-program is
appended at the end of the main entry-point BPF program. As mentioned above,
each main BPF program might have different subset and differen order of
sub-programs, so call relocations can't be done just once. Splitting data
reference and calls relocations as described above allows to do this
efficiently and cleanly.
bpf_object__find_program_by_name() will now ignore non-entry BPF programs.
Previously one could have looked up '.text' fake BPF program, but the
existence of such BPF program was always an implementation detail and you
can't do much useful with it. Now, though, all non-entry sub-programs get
their own BPF program with name corresponding to a function name, so there is
no more '.text' name for BPF program. This means there is no regression,
effectively, w.r.t. API behavior. But this is important aspect to highlight,
because it's going to be critical once libbpf implements static linking of BPF
programs. Non-entry static BPF programs will be allowed to have conflicting
names, but global and main-entry BPF program names should be unique. Just like
with normal user-space linking process. So it's important to restrict this
aspect right now, keep static and non-entry functions as internal
implementation details, and not have to deal with regressions in behavior
later.
This patch leaves .BTF.ext adjustment as is until next patch.

Fix up CO-RE relocation code to handle relocations against ELF sections
containing multiple BPF programs. This requires lookup of a BPF program by its
section name and instruction index it contains. While it could have been done
as a simple loop, it could run into performance issues pretty quickly, as
number of CO-RE relocations can be quite large in real-world applications, and
each CO-RE relocation incurs BPF program look up now. So instead of simple
loop, implement a binary search by section name + insn offset.
