Generalize BPF program attaching and allow libbpf to auto-detect type (and
extra parameters, where applicable) and attach supported BPF program types
based on program sections. Currently this is supported for:
- kprobe/kretprobe;
- tracepoint;
- raw tracepoint;
- tracing programs (typed raw TP/fentry/fexit).
More types support can be trivially added within this framework.

Add new set of bpf_object__open APIs using new approach to optional
parameters extensibility allowing simpler ABI compatibility approach.
This patch demonstrates an approach to implementing libbpf APIs that
makes it easy to extend existing APIs with extra optional parameters in
such a way, that ABI compatibility is preserved without having to do
symbol versioning and generating lots of boilerplate code to handle it.
To facilitate succinct code for working with options, add OPTS_VALID,
OPTS_HAS, and OPTS_GET macros that hide all the NULL, size, and zero
checks.
Additionally, newly added libbpf APIs are encouraged to follow similar
pattern of having all mandatory parameters as formal function parameters
and always have optional (NULL-able) xxx_opts struct, which should
always have real struct size as a first field and the rest would be
optional parameters added over time, which tune the behavior of existing
API, if specified by user.

Currently libbpf version is specified in 2 places: libbpf.map and

but forget to update another one. In addition, Github projection of
libbpf has to maintain its own version which has to be remembered to be
kept in sync manually, which is very error-prone approach.
This patch makes libbpf.map a source of truth for libbpf version and
uses shell invocation to parse out correct full and major libbpf version
to use during build. Now we need to make sure that once new release
cycle starts, we need to add (initially) empty section to libbpf.map

BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map is often used to send data from BPF program
to user space for additional processing. libbpf already has very low-level API
to read single CPU perf buffer, bpf_perf_event_read_simple(), but it's hard to
use and requires a lot of code to set everything up. This patch adds
perf_buffer abstraction on top of it, abstracting setting up and polling
per-CPU logic into simple and convenient API, similar to what BCC provides.
perf_buffer__new() sets up per-CPU ring buffers and updates corresponding BPF
map entries. It accepts two user-provided callbacks: one for handling raw
samples and one for get notifications of lost samples due to buffer overflow.
perf_buffer__new_raw() is similar, but provides more control over how
perf events are set up (by accepting user-provided perf_event_attr), how
they are handled (perf_event_header pointer is passed directly to
user-provided callback), and on which CPUs ring buffers are created
(it's possible to provide a list of CPUs and corresponding map keys to
update). This API allows advanced users fuller control.
perf_buffer__poll() is used to fetch ring buffer data across all CPUs,
utilizing epoll instance.
perf_buffer__free() does corresponding clean up and unsets FDs from BPF map.
All APIs are not thread-safe. User should ensure proper locking/coordination if
used in multi-threaded set up.

This adds libbpf support for BTF Var and DataSec kinds. Main point
here is that libbpf needs to do some preparatory work before the
whole BTF object can be loaded into the kernel, that is, fixing up
of DataSec size taken from the ELF section size and non-static
variable offset which needs to be taken from the ELF's string section.
Upstream LLVM doesn't fix these up since at time of BTF emission
it is too early in the compilation process thus this information
isn't available yet, hence loader needs to take care of it.
Note, deduplication handling has not been in the scope of this work
and needs to be addressed in a future commit.

This work adds BPF loader support for global data sections
to libbpf. This allows to write BPF programs in more natural
C-like way by being able to define global variables and const
data.
Back at LPC 2018 [0] we presented a first prototype which
implemented support for global data sections by extending BPF
syscall where union bpf_attr would get additional memory/size
pair for each section passed during prog load in order to later
add this base address into the ldimm64 instruction along with
the user provided offset when accessing a variable. Consensus
from LPC was that for proper upstream support, it would be
more desirable to use maps instead of bpf_attr extension as
this would allow for introspection of these sections as well
as potential live updates of their content. This work follows
this path by taking the following steps from loader side:
1) In bpf_object__elf_collect() step we pick up ".data",
".rodata", and ".bss" section information.
2) If present, in bpf_object__init_internal_map() we add
maps to the obj's map array that corresponds to each
of the present sections. Given section size and access
properties can differ, a single entry array map is
created with value size that is corresponding to the
ELF section size of .data, .bss or .rodata. These
internal maps are integrated into the normal map
handling of libbpf such that when user traverses all
obj maps, they can be differentiated from user-created
ones via bpf_map__is_internal(). In later steps when
we actually create these maps in the kernel via
bpf_object__create_maps(), then for .data and .rodata
sections their content is copied into the map through
bpf_map_update_elem(). For .bss this is not necessary
since array map is already zero-initialized by default.
Additionally, for .rodata the map is frozen as read-only
after setup, such that neither from program nor syscall
side writes would be possible.
3) In bpf_program__collect_reloc() step, we record the
corresponding map, insn index, and relocation type for
the global data.
4) And last but not least in the actual relocation step in
bpf_program__relocate(), we mark the ldimm64 instruction
with src_reg = BPF_PSEUDO_MAP_VALUE where in the first
imm field the map's file descriptor is stored as similarly
done as in BPF_PSEUDO_MAP_FD, and in the second imm field
(as ldimm64 is 2-insn wide) we store the access offset
into the section. Given these maps have only single element
ldimm64's off remains zero in both parts.
5) On kernel side, this special marked BPF_PSEUDO_MAP_VALUE
load will then store the actual target address in order
to have a 'map-lookup'-free access. That is, the actual
map value base address + offset. The destination register
in the verifier will then be marked as PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE,
containing the fixed offset as reg->off and backing BPF
map as reg->map_ptr. Meaning, it's treated as any other
normal map value from verification side, only with
efficient, direct value access instead of actual call to
map lookup helper as in the typical case.
Currently, only support for static global variables has been
added, and libbpf rejects non-static global variables from
loading. This can be lifted until we have proper semantics
for how BPF will treat multi-object BPF loads. From BTF side,
libbpf will set the value type id of the types corresponding
to the ".bss", ".data" and ".rodata" names which LLVM will
emit without the object name prefix. The key type will be
left as zero, thus making use of the key-less BTF option in
array maps.

section:

For Cilium use-case in particular, this enables migrating configuration
constants from Cilium daemon's generated header defines into global
data sections such that expensive runtime recompilations with LLVM can
be avoided altogether. Instead, the ELF file becomes effectively a
"template", meaning, it is compiled only once (!) and the Cilium daemon
will then rewrite relevant configuration data from the ELF's .data or
.rodata sections directly instead of recompiling the program. The
updated ELF is then loaded into the kernel and atomically replaces
the existing program in the networking datapath. More info in [0].

This commit adds AF_XDP support to libbpf. The main reason for this is
to facilitate writing applications that use AF_XDP by offering
higher-level APIs that hide many of the details of the AF_XDP
uapi. This is in the same vein as libbpf facilitates XDP adoption by
offering easy-to-use higher level interfaces of XDP
functionality. Hopefully this will facilitate adoption of AF_XDP, make
applications using it simpler and smaller, and finally also make it
possible for applications to benefit from optimizations in the AF_XDP
user space access code. Previously, people just copied and pasted the
code from the sample application into their application, which is not
desirable.
The interface is composed of two parts:
* Low-level access interface to the four rings and the packet
* High-level control plane interface for creating and setting
up umems and af_xdp sockets as well as a simple XDP program.

Add bpf_map__resize() to change max_entries for a map.
Quite often necessary map size is unknown at compile time and can be

Currently the following approach is used to do so:
* bpf_object__open_buffer() to open Elf file from a buffer;
* bpf_object__find_map_by_name() to find relevant map;
* bpf_map__def() to get map attributes and create struct
bpf_create_map_attr from them;
* update max_entries in bpf_create_map_attr;
* bpf_create_map_xattr() to create new map with updated max_entries;
* bpf_map__reuse_fd() to replace the map in bpf_object with newly
created one.
And after all this bpf_object can finally be loaded. The map will have
new size.
It 1) is quite a lot of steps; 2) doesn't take BTF into account.
For "2)" even more steps should be made and some of them require changes
to libbpf (e.g. to get struct btf * from bpf_object).
Instead the whole problem can be solved by introducing simple
bpf_map__resize() API that checks the map and sets new max_entries if
the map is not loaded yet.
So the new steps are:
* bpf_object__open_buffer() to open Elf file from a buffer;
* bpf_object__find_map_by_name() to find relevant map;
* bpf_map__resize() to update max_entries.
That's much simpler and works with BTF.

This patch exposes new API btf__get_raw_data() that allows to get a copy
of raw BTF data out of struct btf. This is useful for external programs
that need to manipulate raw data, e.g., pahole using btf__dedup() to
deduplicate BTF type info and then writing it back to file.

This change splits out previous btf__new functionality of constructing
struct btf and loading it into kernel into two:
- btf__new() just creates and initializes struct btf
- btf__load() attempts to load existing struct btf into kernel
btf__free will still close BTF fd, if it was ever loaded successfully
into kernel.
This change allows users of libbpf to manipulate BTF using its API,
without the need to unnecessarily load it into kernel.
One of the intended use cases is pahole, which will do DWARF to BTF
conversion and then use libbpf to do type deduplication, while then
handling ELF sections overwriting and other concerns on its own.

This patch implements BTF types deduplication algorithm. It allows to
greatly compress typical output of pahole's DWARF-to-BTF conversion or
LLVM's compilation output by detecting and collapsing identical types emitted in
isolation per compilation unit. Algorithm also resolves struct/union forward
declarations into concrete BTF types representing referenced struct/union. If
undesired, this resolution can be disabled through specifying corresponding options.
Algorithm itself and its application to Linux kernel's BTF types is
described in details at:

Currently, to get map key/value type id's, the macro
BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR(<map_name>, <key_type>, <value_type>)
needs to be defined in the bpf program for the
corresponding map.
During program/map loading time,
the local static function bpf_map_find_btf_info()
in libbpf.c is implemented to retrieve the key/value
type ids given the map name.
The patch refactored function bpf_map_find_btf_info()
to create an API btf__get_map_kv_tids() which includes
the bulk of implementation for the original function.
The API btf__get_map_kv_tids() can be used by bcc,
a JIT based bpf compilation system, which uses the
same BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR to record map key/value types.

. btf_ext__reloc_func_info
. btf_ext__reloc_line_info
. btf_ext__func_info_rec_size

Since we have a dedicated netlink attributes for xdp setup on a
particular interface, it is now possible to retrieve the program id that
is currently attached to the interface. The use case is targeted for
sample xdp programs, which will store the program id just after loading
bpf program onto iface. On shutdown, the sample will make sure that it
can unload the program by querying again the iface and verifying that
both program id's matches.

XDP samples are mostly cooperating with eBPF maps through their file
descriptors. In case of a eBPF program that contains multiple maps it
might be tiresome to iterate through them and call bpf_map__fd for each
one. Add a helper mostly based on bpf_object__find_map_by_name, but
instead of returning the struct bpf_map pointer, return map fd.

Similarly to what was done for program types and map types, add a set of
probes to test the availability of the different eBPF helper functions
on the current system.
For each known program type, all known helpers are tested, in order to
establish a compatibility matrix. Output is provided as a set of lists
of available helpers, one per program type.
Sample output:
# bpftool feature probe kernel
...
Scanning eBPF helper functions...
eBPF helpers supported for program type socket_filter:
- bpf_map_lookup_elem
- bpf_map_update_elem
- bpf_map_delete_elem
...
eBPF helpers supported for program type kprobe:
- bpf_map_lookup_elem
- bpf_map_update_elem
- bpf_map_delete_elem
...
# bpftool --json --pretty feature probe kernel
{
...
"helpers": {
"socket_filter_available_helpers": ["bpf_map_lookup_elem", \
"bpf_map_update_elem","bpf_map_delete_elem", ...
],
"kprobe_available_helpers": ["bpf_map_lookup_elem", \
"bpf_map_update_elem","bpf_map_delete_elem", ...
],
...
}
}
v5:
- In libbpf.map, move global symbol to the new LIBBPF_0.0.2 section.
v4:
- Use "enum bpf_func_id" instead of "__u32" in bpf_probe_helper()
declaration for the type of the argument used to pass the id of
the helper to probe.
- Undef BPF_HELPER_MAKE_ENTRY after using it.
v3:
- Do not pass kernel version from bpftool to libbpf probes (kernel
version for testing program with kprobes is retrieved directly from
libbpf).
- Dump one list of available helpers per program type (instead of one
list of compatible program types per helper).
v2:
- Move probes from bpftool to libbpf.
- Test all program types for each helper, print a list of working prog
types for each helper.
- Fall back on include/uapi/linux/bpf.h for names and ids of helpers.
- Remove C-style macros output from this patch.

instead of from bpftool. Do not pass kernel_version as an argument
when calling libbpf probes.
- Use a switch with all enum values for setting specific program
parameters just before probing, so that gcc complains at compile time
(-Wswitch-enum) if new prog types were added to the kernel but libbpf
was not updated.
- Add a comment in libbpf.h about setrlimit() usage to allow many
consecutive probe attempts.

More and more projects use libbpf and one day it'll likely be packaged
and distributed as DSO and that requires ABI versioning so that both
compatible and incompatible changes to ABI can be introduced in a safe
way in the future without breaking executables dynamically linked with a
previous version of the library.
Usual way to do ABI versioning is version script for the linker. Add
such a script for libbpf. All global symbols currently exported via
LIBBPF_API macro are added to the version script libbpf.map.
The version name LIBBPF_0.0.1 is constructed from the name of the
library + version specified by $(LIBBPF_VERSION) in Makefile.
Version script does not duplicate the work done by LIBBPF_API macro, it
rather complements it. The macro is used at compile time and can be used
by compiler to do optimization that can't be done at link time, it is
purely about global symbol visibility. The version script, in turn, is
used at link time and takes care of ABI versioning. Both techniques are
described in details in [1].
Whenever ABI is changed in the future, version script should be changed
appropriately.
