Previously, re-using pinned DEVMAP maps would always fail, because
get_map_info on a DEVMAP always returns flags with BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG set,
but BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG being set on a map during creation is invalid.
Thus, ignore the BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG flag in the flags returned from
get_map_info when checking for compatibility with an existing DEVMAP.
The same problem is handled in a third-party ebpf library:

This patch provides a setsockopt method to let applications leverage to
adjust how many descs to be handled at most in one send syscall. It
mitigates the situation where the default value (32) that is too small
leads to higher frequency of triggering send syscall.
Considering the prosperity/complexity the applications have, there is no
absolutely ideal suggestion fitting all cases. So keep 32 as its default
value like before.
The patch does the following things:
- Add XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET socket option.
- Set max_tx_budget to 32 by default in the initialization phase as a
per-socket granular control.
- Set the range of max_tx_budget as [32, xs->tx->nentries].
The idea behind this comes out of real workloads in production. We use a
user-level stack with xsk support to accelerate sending packets and
minimize triggering syscalls. When the packets are aggregated, it's not
hard to hit the upper bound (namely, 32). The moment user-space stack
fetches the -EAGAIN error number passed from sendto(), it will loop to try
again until all the expected descs from tx ring are sent out to the driver.
Enlarging the XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET value contributes to less frequency of
sendto() and higher throughput/PPS.
Here is what I did in production, along with some numbers as follows:
For one application I saw lately, I suggested using 128 as max_tx_budget
because I saw two limitations without changing any default configuration:
1) XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, 2) socket sndbuf which is 212992 decided by
net.core.wmem_default. As to XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, the scenario behind
this was I counted how many descs are transmitted to the driver at one
time of sendto() based on [1] patch and then I calculated the
possibility of hitting the upper bound. Finally I chose 128 as a
suitable value because 1) it covers most of the cases, 2) a higher
number would not bring evident results. After twisting the parameters,
a stable improvement of around 4% for both PPS and throughput and less
resources consumption were found to be observed by strace -c -p xxx:
1) %time was decreased by 7.8%
2) error counter was decreased from 18367 to 572

Initial __arena global variable support implementation in libbpf
contains a bug: it remembers struct bpf_map pointer for arena, which is
used later on to process relocations. Recording this pointer is
problematic because map pointers are not stable during ELF relocation
collection phase, as an array of struct bpf_map's can be reallocated,
invalidating all the pointers. Libbpf is dealing with similar issues by
using a stable internal map index, though for BPF arena map specifically
this approach wasn't used due to an oversight.
The resulting behavior is non-deterministic issue which depends on exact
layout of ELF object file, number of actual maps, etc. We didn't hit
this until very recently, when this bug started triggering crash in BPF
CI when validating one of sched-ext BPF programs.
The fix is rather straightforward: we just follow an established pattern
of remembering map index (just like obj->kconfig_map_idx, for example)
instead of `struct bpf_map *`, and resolving index to a pointer at the
point where map information is necessary.
While at it also add debug-level message for arena-related relocation
resolution information, which we already have for all other kinds of
maps.

Add support for a stream API to the kernel and expose related kfuncs to
BPF programs. Two streams are exposed, BPF_STDOUT and BPF_STDERR. These
can be used for printing messages that can be consumed from user space,
thus it's similar in spirit to existing trace_pipe interface.
The kernel will use the BPF_STDERR stream to notify the program of any
errors encountered at runtime. BPF programs themselves may use both
streams for writing debug messages. BPF library-like code may use
BPF_STDERR to print warnings or errors on misuse at runtime.
The implementation of a stream is as follows. Everytime a message is
emitted from the kernel (directly, or through a BPF program), a record
is allocated by bump allocating from per-cpu region backed by a page
obtained using alloc_pages_nolock(). This ensures that we can allocate
memory from any context. The eventual plan is to discard this scheme in
favor of Alexei's kmalloc_nolock() [0].
This record is then locklessly inserted into a list (llist_add()) so
that the printing side doesn't require holding any locks, and works in
any context. Each stream has a maximum capacity of 4MB of text, and each
printed message is accounted against this limit.
Messages from a program are emitted using the bpf_stream_vprintk kfunc,
which takes a stream_id argument in addition to working otherwise
similar to bpf_trace_vprintk.
The bprintf buffer helpers are extracted out to be reused for printing
the string into them before copying it into the stream, so that we can
(with the defined max limit) format a string and know its true length
before performing allocations of the stream element.
For consuming elements from a stream, we expose a bpf(2) syscall command
named BPF_PROG_STREAM_READ_BY_FD, which allows reading data from the
stream of a given prog_fd into a user space buffer. The main logic is
implemented in bpf_stream_read(). The log messages are queued in
bpf_stream::log by the bpf_stream_vprintk kfunc, and then pulled and
ordered correctly in the stream backlog.
For this purpose, we hold a lock around bpf_stream_backlog_peek(), as
llist_del_first() (if we maintained a second lockless list for the
backlog) wouldn't be safe from multiple threads anyway. Then, if we
fail to find something in the backlog log, we splice out everything from
the lockless log, and place it in the backlog log, and then return the
head of the backlog. Once the full length of the element is consumed, we
will pop it and free it.
The lockless list bpf_stream::log is a LIFO stack. Elements obtained
using a llist_del_all() operation are in LIFO order, thus would break
the chronological ordering if printed directly. Hence, this batch of
messages is first reversed. Then, it is stashed into a separate list in
the stream, i.e. the backlog_log. The head of this list is the actual
message that should always be returned to the caller. All of this is
done in bpf_stream_backlog_fill().
From the kernel side, the writing into the stream will be a bit more
involved than the typical printk. First, the kernel typically may print
a collection of messages into the stream, and parallel writers into the
stream may suffer from interleaving of messages. To ensure each group of
messages is visible atomically, we can lift the advantage of using a
lockless list for pushing in messages.
To enable this, we add a bpf_stream_stage() macro, and require kernel
users to use bpf_stream_printk statements for the passed expression to
write into the stream. Underneath the macro, we have a message staging
API, where a bpf_stream_stage object on the stack accumulates the
messages being printed into a local llist_head, and then a commit
operation splices the whole batch into the stream's lockless log list.
This is especially pertinent for rqspinlock deadlock messages printed to
program streams. After this change, we see each deadlock invocation as a
non-interleaving contiguous message without any confusion on the
reader's part, improving their user experience in debugging the fault.
While programs cannot benefit from this staged stream writing API, they
could just as well hold an rqspinlock around their print statements to
serialize messages, hence this is kept kernel-internal for now.
Overall, this infrastructure provides NMI-safe any context printing of
messages to two dedicated streams.
Later patches will add support for printing splats in case of BPF arena
page faults, rqspinlock deadlocks, and cond_break timeouts, and
integration of this facility into bpftool for dumping messages to user
space.

The `name` field in `obj->externs` points into the BTF data at initial
open time. However, some functions may invalidate this after opening and
before loading (e.g. `bpf_map__set_value_size`), which results in
pointers into freed memory and undefined behavior.
The simplest solution is to simply `strdup` these strings, similar to
the `essent_name`, and free them at the same time.
In order to test this path, the `global_map_resize` BPF selftest is
modified slightly to ensure the presence of an extern, which causes this
test to fail prior to the fix. Given there isn't an obvious API or error
to test against, I opted to add this to the existing test as an aspect
of the resizing feature rather than duplicate the test.

In Cilium, we use bpf_csum_diff + bpf_l4_csum_replace to, among other
things, update the L4 checksum after reverse SNATing IPv6 packets. That
use case is however not currently supported and leads to invalid
skb->csum values in some cases. This patch adds support for IPv6 address
changes in bpf_l4_csum_update via a new flag.
When calling bpf_l4_csum_replace in Cilium, it ends up calling
inet_proto_csum_replace_by_diff:
1: void inet_proto_csum_replace_by_diff(__sum16 *sum, struct sk_buff *skb,
2: __wsum diff, bool pseudohdr)
3: {
4: if (skb->ip_summed != CHECKSUM_PARTIAL) {
5: csum_replace_by_diff(sum, diff);
6: if (skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_COMPLETE && pseudohdr)
7: skb->csum = ~csum_sub(diff, skb->csum);
8: } else if (pseudohdr) {
9: *sum = ~csum_fold(csum_add(diff, csum_unfold(*sum)));
10: }
11: }
The bug happens when we're in the CHECKSUM_COMPLETE state. We've just
updated one of the IPv6 addresses. The helper now updates the L4 header
checksum on line 5. Next, it updates skb->csum on line 7. It shouldn't.
For an IPv6 packet, the updates of the IPv6 address and of the L4
checksum will cancel each other. The checksums are set such that
computing a checksum over the packet including its checksum will result
in a sum of 0. So the same is true here when we update the L4 checksum
on line 5. We'll update it as to cancel the previous IPv6 address
update. Hence skb->csum should remain untouched in this case.
The same bug doesn't affect IPv4 packets because, in that case, three
fields are updated: the IPv4 address, the IP checksum, and the L4
checksum. The change to the IPv4 address and one of the checksums still
cancel each other in skb->csum, but we're left with one checksum update
and should therefore update skb->csum accordingly. That's exactly what
inet_proto_csum_replace_by_diff does.
This special case for IPv6 L4 checksums is also described atop
inet_proto_csum_replace16, the function we should be using in this case.
This patch introduces a new bpf_l4_csum_replace flag, BPF_F_IPV6,
to indicate that we're updating the L4 checksum of an IPv6 packet. When
the flag is set, inet_proto_csum_replace_by_diff will skip the
skb->csum update.

Current cgroup prog ordering is appending at attachment time. This is not
ideal. In some cases, users want specific ordering at a particular cgroup
level. To address this, the existing mprog API seems an ideal solution with
supporting BPF_F_BEFORE and BPF_F_AFTER flags.
But there are a few obstacles to directly use kernel mprog interface.
Currently cgroup bpf progs already support prog attach/detach/replace
and link-based attach/detach/replace. For example, in struct
bpf_prog_array_item, the cgroup_storage field needs to be together
with bpf prog. But the mprog API struct bpf_mprog_fp only has bpf_prog
as the member, which makes it difficult to use kernel mprog interface.
In another case, the current cgroup prog detach tries to use the
same flag as in attach. This is different from mprog kernel interface
which uses flags passed from user space.
So to avoid modifying existing behavior, I made the following changes to
support mprog API for cgroup progs:
- The support is for prog list at cgroup level. Cross-level prog list
(a.k.a. effective prog list) is not supported.
- Previously, BPF_F_PREORDER is supported only for prog attach, now
BPF_F_PREORDER is also supported by link-based attach.
- For attach, BPF_F_BEFORE/BPF_F_AFTER/BPF_F_ID/BPF_F_LINK is supported
similar to kernel mprog but with different implementation.
- For detach and replace, use the existing implementation.
- For attach, detach and replace, the revision for a particular prog
list, associated with a particular attach type, will be updated
by increasing count by 1.

The BTF dumper code currently displays arrays of characters as just that -
arrays, with each character formatted individually. Sometimes this is what
makes sense, but it's nice to be able to treat that array as a string.
This change adds a special case to the btf_dump functionality to allow
0-terminated arrays of single-byte integer values to be printed as
character strings. Characters for which isprint() returns false are
printed as hex-escaped values. This is enabled when the new ".emit_strings"
is set to 1 in the btf_dump_type_data_opts structure.
As an example, here's what it looks like to dump the string "hello" using
a few different field values for btf_dump_type_data_opts (.compact = 1):
- .emit_strings = 0, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .emit_strings = 0, .skip_names = 1: ['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .emit_strings = 1, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])"hello"
- .emit_strings = 1, .skip_names = 1: "hello"
Here's the string "h\xff", dumped with .compact = 1 and .skip_names = 1:
- .emit_strings = 0: ['h',-1,]
- .emit_strings = 1: "h\xff"

libbpf handling of split BTF has been written largely with the
assumption that multiple splits are possible, i.e. split BTF on top of
split BTF on top of base BTF. One area where this does not quite work
is string handling in split BTF; the start string offset should be the
base BTF string section length + the base BTF string offset. This
worked in the past because for a single split BTF with base the start
string offset was always 0.

- Fix typos and grammar
- Fix capitalization
- Remove whitespace noise
- Harmonize the definitions of various generations and groups of
PERF_MEM_ ABI values.
- Vertically align all definitions and assignments to the same
column (48), as the first definition (enum perf_type_id),
throughout the entire header.
- And in general make the code and comments to be more in sync
with each other and to be more readable overall.
No change in functionality.

Normalize already synced UAPI headers. For all subsequent syncs this
will be done automatically by the sync script.
Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
It's expected that kernel UAPI headers have #ifndef guards starting with
__LINUX prefix, while in the kernel source code these guards are
actually starting with _UAPI__LINUX. The stripping of _UAPI prefix is
done (among other things) by kernel's scripts/headers_install.sh script.
Given libbpf vendors its own UAPI header under include/uapi subdir, and
those "internal" UAPI headers are sometimes used by libbpf users for
convenience, let's stick to the __LINUX prefix rule and do that during
the sync.

BTF dedup has a strong assumption that compiler with deduplicate identical
types within any given compilation unit (i.e., .c file). This property
is used when establishing equilvalence of two subgraphs of types.
Unfortunately, this property doesn't always holds in practice. We've
seen cases of having truly identical structs, unions, array definitions,
and, most recently, even pointers to the same type being duplicated
within CU.
Previously, we mitigated this on a case-by-case basis, adding a few
simple heuristics for validating that two BTF types (having two
different type IDs) are structurally the same. But this approach scales
poorly, and we can have more weird cases come up in the future.
So let's take a half-step back, and implement a bit more generic
structural equivalence check, recursively. We still limit it to
reasonable depth to avoid long reference loops. Depth-wise limiting of
potentially cyclical graph isn't great, but as I mentioned below doesn't
seem to be detrimental performance-wise. We can always improve this in
the future with per-type visited markers, if necessary.
Performance-wise this doesn't seem too affect vmlinux BTF dedup, which
makes sense because this logic kicks in not so frequently and only if we
already established a canonical candidate type match, but suddenly find
a different (but probably identical) type.

This happens because BPF_CORE_READ (and other macro) declare the

from intermediate types.
Fix this by using __typeof_unqual__, when supported. (And when it
is not supported, the problem shouldn't appear, as older compilers

Recently as a side-effect of
commit ac053946f5c4 ("compiler.h: introduce TYPEOF_UNQUAL() macro")
issues were observed in deduplication between modules and kernel BTF
such that a large number of kernel types were not deduplicated so
were found in module BTF (task_struct, bpf_prog etc). The root cause
appeared to be a failure to dedup struct types, specifically those
with members that were pointers with __percpu annotations.
The issue in dedup is at the point that we are deduplicating structures,
we have not yet deduplicated reference types like pointers. If multiple
copies of a pointer point at the same (deduplicated) integer as in this
case, we do not see them as identical. Special handling already exists
to deal with structures and arrays, so add pointer handling here too.

As shown in [1], it is possible to corrupt a BPF ELF file such that
arbitrary BPF instructions are loaded by libbpf. This can be done by
setting a symbol (BPF program) section offset to a large (unsigned)
number such that <section start + symbol offset> overflows and points
before the section data in the memory.
Consider the situation below where:
- prog_start = sec_start + symbol_offset <-- size_t overflow here
- prog_end = prog_start + prog_size
prog_start sec_start prog_end sec_end
| | | |
v v v v
.....................|################################|............
The report in [1] also provides a corrupted BPF ELF which can be used as
a reproducer:
$ readelf -S crash

$ readelf -s crash
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 8 entries:

...

Here, the handle_tp prog has section offset ffffffffffffffb8, i.e. will
point before the actual memory where section 2 is allocated.

`while (sec_off < sec_sz)` in bpf_object__add_programs, however, it was
removed by commit 6245947c1b3c ("libbpf: Allow gaps in BPF program

This patch introduces a new callback in tcp_tx_timestamp() to correlate
tcp_sendmsg timestamp with timestamps from other tx timestamping
callbacks (e.g., SND/SW/ACK).
Without this patch, BPF program wouldn't know which timestamps belong
to which flow because of no socket lock protection. This new callback
is inserted in tcp_tx_timestamp() to address this issue because
tcp_tx_timestamp() still owns the same socket lock with
tcp_sendmsg_locked() in the meanwhile tcp_tx_timestamp() initializes
the timestamping related fields for the skb, especially tskey. The
tskey is the bridge to do the correlation.
For TCP, BPF program hooks the beginning of tcp_sendmsg_locked() and
then stores the sendmsg timestamp at the bpf_sk_storage, correlating
this timestamp with its tskey that are later used in other sending
timestamping callbacks.

The commit 97c79a38cd45 ("perf core: Per event callchain limit")
introduced a per-event term to allow finer tuning of the depth of
callchains to save space.
It should be applied to the branch stack as well. For example, autoFDO
collections require maximum LBR entries. In the meantime, other
system-wide LBR users may only be interested in the latest a few number
of LBRs. A per-event LBR depth would save the perf output buffer.
The patch simply drops the uninterested branches, but HW still collects
the maximum branches. There may be a model-specific optimization that
can reduce the HW depth for some cases to reduce the overhead further.
But it isn't included in the patch set. Because it's not useful for all
cases. For example, ARCH LBR can utilize the PEBS and XSAVE to collect
LBRs. The depth should have less impact on the collecting overhead.
The model-specific optimization may be implemented later separately.

Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release
semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags:
#define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100
#define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110
A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm'
field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100).
Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with
the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110).
Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support
BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and
store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an
exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not
supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the
kernel test robot).
An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to
a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends.
Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned
load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if
BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set).
As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF
instruction (assuming little-endian):
db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))

Introduce bpf_object__prepare API: additional intermediate preparation
step that performs ELF processing, relocations, prepares final state of
BPF program instructions (accessible with bpf_program__insns()), creates
and (potentially) pins maps, and stops short of loading BPF programs.
We anticipate few use cases for this API, such as:
* Use prepare to initialize bpf_token, without loading freplace
programs, unlocking possibility to lookup BTF of other programs.
* Execute prepare to obtain finalized BPF program instructions without
loading programs, enabling tools like veristat to process one program at
a time, without incurring cost of ELF parsing and processing.

Currently for bpf progs in a cgroup hierarchy, the effective prog array
is computed from bottom cgroup to upper cgroups (post-ordering). For
example, the following cgroup hierarchy
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
have BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI for both cgroup levels.
The effective cgroup array ordering looks like
p3 p4 p1 p2
and at run time, progs will execute based on that order.
But in some cases, it is desirable to have root prog executes earlier than
children progs (pre-ordering). For example,
- prog p1 intends to collect original pkt dest addresses.
- prog p3 will modify original pkt dest addresses to a proxy address for
security reason.
The end result is that prog p1 gets proxy address which is not what it
wants. Putting p1 to every child cgroup is not desirable either as it
will duplicate itself in many child cgroups. And this is exactly a use case
we are encountering in Meta.
To fix this issue, let us introduce a flag BPF_F_PREORDER. If the flag
is specified at attachment time, the prog has higher priority and the
ordering with that flag will be from top to bottom (pre-ordering).
For example, in the above example,
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
Let us say p2 and p4 are marked with BPF_F_PREORDER. The final
effective array ordering will be
p2 p4 p3 p1

In `set_kcfg_value_str`, an untrusted string is accessed with the assumption
that it will be at least two characters long due to the presence of checks for
opening and closing quotes. But the check for the closing quote
(value[len - 1] != '"') misses the fact that it could be checking the opening
quote itself in case of an invalid input that consists of just the opening
quote.
This commit adds an explicit check to make sure the string is at least two

Libbpf has a somewhat obscure feature of automatically adjusting the
"size" of LDX/STX/ST instruction (memory store and load instructions),
based on originally recorded access size (u8, u16, u32, or u64) and the
actual size of the field on target kernel. This is meant to facilitate
using BPF CO-RE on 32-bit architectures (pointers are always 64-bit in
BPF, but host kernel's BTF will have it as 32-bit type), as well as
generally supporting safe type changes (unsigned integer type changes
can be transparently "relocated").
One issue that surfaced only now, 5 years after this logic was
implemented, is how this all works when dealing with fields that are
arrays. This isn't all that easy and straightforward to hit (see
selftests that reproduce this condition), but one of sched_ext BPF
programs did hit it with innocent looking loop.
Long story short, libbpf used to calculate entire array size, instead of
making sure to only calculate array's element size. But it's the element
that is loaded by LDX/STX/ST instructions (1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes), so
that's what libbpf should check. This patch adjusts the logic for
arrays and fixed the issue.

Allow the user to configure needed_{head,tail}room for both netkit
devices. The idea is similar to 163e529200af ("veth: implement
ndo_set_rx_headroom") with the difference that the two parameters
can be specified upon device creation. By default the current behavior
stays as is which is needed_{head,tail}room is 0.
In case of Cilium, for example, the netkit devices are not enslaved
into a bridge or openvswitch device (rather, BPF-based redirection
is used out of tcx), and as such these parameters are not propagated
into the Pod's netns via peer device.
Given Cilium can run in vxlan/geneve tunneling mode (needed_headroom)
and/or be used in combination with WireGuard (needed_{head,tail}room),
allow the Cilium CNI plugin to specify these two upon netkit device
creation.

run-on-arch-action is simply a wrapper around docker. There is no
value in using it in libbpf, as it is not complicated to run
non-native arch docker images directly on github-hosted runners.
Docker relies on qemu-user-static installed on the system to emulate
different architectures.
Recently there were various reports about multi-arch docker builds
failing with seemingly random issues, and it appears to boil down to
qemu [1]. I stumbled on this problem while updating s390x runners [2]
for BPF CI, and setting up more recent version of qemu helped.
This change addresses recent build failures on s390x and ppc64le.

Some versions of kernel were stripping out '.llvm.<hash>' suffix from
kerne symbols (produced by Clang LTO compilation) from function names
reported in available_filter_functions, while kallsyms reported full
original name. This confuses libbpf's multi-kprobe logic of finding all
matching kernel functions for specified user glob pattern by joining
available_filter_functions and kallsyms contents, because joining by
full symbol name won't work for symbols containing '.llvm.<hash>' suffix.
This was eventually fixed by [0] in the kernel, but we'd like to not
regress multi-kprobe experience and add a work around for this bug on
libbpf side, stripping kallsym's name if it matches user pattern and
contains '.llvm.' suffix.

When redirecting the split BTF to the vmlinux base BTF, we need to mark
the distilled base struct/union members of split BTF structs/unions in
id_map with BTF_IS_EMBEDDED. This indicates that these types must match
both name and size later. Therefore, we need to traverse the entire
split BTF, which involves traversing type IDs from nr_dist_base_types to
nr_types. However, the current implementation uses an incorrect
traversal end type ID, so let's correct it.

Jordan reported an issue in Meta production environment where func
try_to_wake_up() is renamed to try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>() by clang
compiler at lto mode. The original 'kprobe/try_to_wake_up' does not
work any more since try_to_wake_up() does not match the actual func
name in /proc/kallsyms.
There are a couple of ways to resolve this issue. For example, in
attach_kprobe(), we could do lookup in /proc/kallsyms so try_to_wake_up()
can be replaced by try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hach>(). Or we can force users
to use bpf_program__attach_kprobe() where they need to lookup
/proc/kallsyms to find out try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hach>(). But these two
approaches requires extra work by either libbpf or user.
Luckily, suggested by Andrii, multi kprobe already supports wildcard ('*')
for symbol matching. In the above example, 'try_to_wake_up*' can match
to try_to_wake_up() or try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>() and this allows
bpf prog works for different kernels as some kernels may have
try_to_wake_up() and some others may have try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>().
The original intention is to kprobe try_to_wake_up() only, so an optional
field unique_match is added to struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts. If the
field is set to true, the number of matched functions must be one.
Otherwise, the attachment will fail. In the above case, multi kprobe
with 'try_to_wake_up*' and unique_match preserves user functionality.

present, indicates that the fd_array is a continuous array of the

If fd_array_cnt is non-zero, then every map in the fd_array will be
bound to the program, as if it was used by the program. This
functionality is similar to the BPF_PROG_BIND_MAP syscall, but such
maps can be used by the verifier during the program load.

Libelf functions do not set errno on failure. Instead, it relies on its
internal _elf_errno value, that can be retrieved via elf_errno (or the
corresponding message via elf_errmsg()). From "man libelf":
If a libelf function encounters an error it will set an internal
error code that can be retrieved with elf_errno. Each thread
maintains its own separate error code. The meaning of each error
code can be determined with elf_errmsg, which returns a string
describing the error.
As a consequence, libbpf should not return -errno when a function from
libelf fails, because an empty value will not be interpreted as an error
and won't prevent the program to stop. This is visible in
bpf_linker__add_file(), for example, where we call a succession of
functions that rely on libelf:
err = err ?: linker_load_obj_file(linker, filename, opts, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_sec_data(linker, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_elf_syms(linker, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_elf_relos(linker, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_btf(linker, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_btf_ext(linker, &obj);
If the object file that we try to process is not, in fact, a correct
object file, linker_load_obj_file() may fail with errno not being set,
and return 0. In this case we attempt to run linker_append_elf_sysms()
and may segfault.
This can happen (and was discovered) with bpftool:
$ bpftool gen object output.o sample_ret0.bpf.c
libbpf: failed to get ELF header for sample_ret0.bpf.c: invalid `Elf' handle
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) bpftool gen object output.o sample_ret0.bpf.c
Fix the issue by returning a non-null error code (-EINVAL) when libelf
functions fail.

Hardware traces, such as instruction traces, can produce a vast amount of
trace data, so being able to reduce tracing to more specific circumstances
can be useful.
The ability to pause or resume tracing when another event happens, can do
that.
Add ability for an event to "pause" or "resume" AUX area tracing.
Add aux_pause bit to perf_event_attr to indicate that, if the event
happens, the associated AUX area tracing should be paused. Ditto
aux_resume. Do not allow aux_pause and aux_resume to be set together.
Add aux_start_paused bit to perf_event_attr to indicate to an AUX area
event that it should start in a "paused" state.
Add aux_paused to struct hw_perf_event for AUX area events to keep track of
the "paused" state. aux_paused is initialized to aux_start_paused.
Add PERF_EF_PAUSE and PERF_EF_RESUME modes for ->stop() and ->start()
callbacks. Call as needed, during __perf_event_output(). Add
aux_in_pause_resume to struct perf_buffer to prevent races with the NMI
handler. Pause/resume in NMI context will miss out if it coincides with
another pause/resume.
To use aux_pause or aux_resume, an event must be in a group with the AUX
area event as the group leader.
Example (requires Intel PT and tools patches also):

Since BPF skeleton inception libbpf has been doing mmap()'ing of global
data ARRAY maps in bpf_object__load_skeleton() API, which is used by
code generated .skel.h files (i.e., by BPF skeletons only).
This is wrong because if BPF object is loaded through generic
bpf_object__load() API, global data maps won't be re-mmap()'ed after
load step, and memory pointers returned from bpf_map__initial_value()
would be wrong and won't reflect the actual memory shared between BPF
program and user space.
bpf_map__initial_value() return result is rarely used after load, so
this went unnoticed for a really long time, until bpftrace project
attempted to load BPF object through generic bpf_object__load() API and
then used BPF subskeleton instantiated from such bpf_object. It turned
out that .data/.rodata/.bss data updates through such subskeleton was
"blackholed", all because libbpf wouldn't re-mmap() those maps during
bpf_object__load() phase.
Long story short, this step should be done by libbpf regardless of BPF
skeleton usage, right after BPF map is created in the kernel. This patch
moves this functionality into bpf_object__populate_internal_map() to
achieve this. And bpf_object__load_skeleton() is now simple and almost
trivial, only propagating these mmap()'ed pointers into user-supplied
skeleton structs.
We also do trivial adjustments to error reporting inside
bpf_object__populate_internal_map() for consistency with the rest of
libbpf's map-handling code.

Libbpf pre-1.0 had a legacy logic of allowing singular non-annotated
(i.e., not having explicit SEC() annotation) function to be treated as
sole entry BPF program (unless there were other explicit entry
programs).
This behavior was dropped during libbpf 1.0 transition period (unless
LIBBPF_STRICT_SEC_NAME flag was unset in libbpf_mode). When 1.0 was
released and all the legacy behavior was removed, the bug slipped
through leaving this legacy behavior around.
Fix this for good, as it actually causes very confusing behavior if BPF
object file only has subprograms, but no entry programs.

sym_is_subprog() is incorrectly rejecting relocations against *weak*
global subprogs. Fix that by realizing that STB_WEAK is also a global

While it seems like verifier doesn't support taking an address of
non-static subprog right now, it's still best to fix support for it on
libbpf side, otherwise users will get a very confusing error during BPF
skeleton generation or static linking due to misinterpreted relocation:
libbpf: prog 'handle_tp': bad map relo against 'foo' in section '.text'
Error: failed to open BPF object file: Relocation failed
It's clearly not a map relocation, but is treated and reported as such
without this fix.

Allow static linking object files of either endianness, checking that input
files have consistent byte-order, and setting output endianness from input.
Linking requires in-memory processing of programs, relocations, sections,
etc. in native endianness, and output conversion to target byte-order. This
is enabled by built-in ELF translation and recent BTF/BTF.ext endianness
functions. Further add local functions for swapping byte-order of sections
containing BPF insns.

Add internal header functions for byte-swapping func, line, and core info

Reduce log level of BTF loading error to INFO if BTF is not required.
Andrii says:
Nowadays the expectation is that the BPF program will have a valid
.BTF section, so even though .BTF is "optional", I think it's fine
to emit a warning for that case (any reasonably recent Clang will
produce valid BTF).
Ihor's patch is fixing the situation with an outdated host kernel
that doesn't understand BTF. libbpf will try to "upload" the
program's BTF, but if that fails and the BPF object doesn't use
any features that require having BTF uploaded, then it's just an
information message to the user, but otherwise can be ignored.

Currently the only opportunity to set sock ops flags dictating
which callbacks fire for a socket is from within a TCP-BPF sockops
program. This is problematic if the connection is already set up
as there is no further chance to specify callbacks for that socket.
Add TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS to bpf_setsockopt() and bpf_getsockopt()
to allow users to specify callbacks later, either via an iterator
over sockets or via a socket-specific program triggered by a
setsockopt() on the socket.
