Add support for [LDX | STX | ST], PROBE_MEM32, [B | H | W | DW]
instructions. They are similar to PROBE_MEM instructions with the
following differences:
- PROBE_MEM32 supports store.
- PROBE_MEM32 relies on the verifier to clear upper 32-bit of the
src/dst register
- PROBE_MEM32 adds 64-bit kern_vm_start address (which is stored in S7
in the prologue). Due to bpf_arena constructions such S7 + reg +
off16 access is guaranteed to be within arena virtual range, so no
address check at run-time.
- S11 is a free callee-saved register, so it is used to store kern_vm_start
- PROBE_MEM32 allows STX and ST. If they fault the store is a nop. When
LDX faults the destination register is zeroed.
To support these on riscv, we do tmp = S7 + src/dst reg and then use
tmp2 as the new src/dst register. This allows us to reuse most of the
code for normal [LDX | STX | ST].

Turned out that bpf prog callback addresses, bpf prog addresses
used in bpf_trampoline, and in other cases the 64-bit address
can be represented as sign extended 32-bit value.
According to https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82339
"Skylake has 0.64c throughput for mov r64, imm64, vs. 0.25 for mov r32, imm32."
So use shorter encoding and faster instruction when possible.
Special care is needed in jit_subprogs(), since bpf_pseudo_func()
instruction cannot change its size during the last step of JIT.

On non-SMP systems, there is no "per-CPU" data, it's just global data.
So in such case just don't do this_cpu_off-based per-CPU address adjustment.

====================
Add internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction
Add a new BPF instruction for resolving per-CPU memory addresses.
New instruction is a special form of BPF_ALU64 | BPF_MOV | BPF_X, with
insns->off set to BPF_ADDR_PERCPU (== -1). It resolves provided per-CPU offset
to an absolute address where per-CPU data resides for "this" CPU.
This patch set implements support for it in x86-64 BPF JIT only.
Using the new instruction, we also implement inlining for three cases:
- bpf_get_smp_processor_id(), which allows to avoid unnecessary trivial
function call, saving a bit of performance and also not polluting LBR
records with unnecessary function call/return records;
- PERCPU_ARRAY's bpf_map_lookup_elem() is completely inlined, bringing its
performance to implementing per-CPU data structures using global variables
in BPF (which is an awesome improvement, see benchmarks below);
- PERCPU_HASH's bpf_map_lookup_elem() is partially inlined, just like the
same for non-PERCPU HASH map; this still saves a bit of overhead.
To validate performance benefits, I hacked together a tiny benchmark doing
only bpf_map_lookup_elem() and incrementing the value by 1 for PERCPU_ARRAY
(arr-inc benchmark below) and PERCPU_HASH (hash-inc benchmark below) maps. To
establish a baseline, I also implemented logic similar to PERCPU_ARRAY based
on global variable array using bpf_get_smp_processor_id() to index array for
current CPU (glob-arr-inc benchmark below).
BEFORE
======
glob-arr-inc : 163.685 ± 0.092M/s
arr-inc : 138.096 ± 0.160M/s
hash-inc : 66.855 ± 0.123M/s
AFTER
=====
glob-arr-inc : 173.921 ± 0.039M/s (+6%)
arr-inc : 170.729 ± 0.210M/s (+23.7%)
hash-inc : 68.673 ± 0.070M/s (+2.7%)
As can be seen, PERCPU_HASH gets a modest +2.7% improvement, while global
array-based gets a nice +6% due to inlining of bpf_get_smp_processor_id().
But what's really important is that arr-inc benchmark basically catches up
with glob-arr-inc, resulting in +23.7% improvement. This means that in
practice it won't be necessary to avoid PERCPU_ARRAY anymore if performance is
critical (e.g., high-frequent stats collection, which is often a practical use
for PERCPU_ARRAY today).
v1->v2:
- use BPF_ALU64 | BPF_MOV instruction instead of LDX (Alexei);
- dropped the direct per-CPU memory read instruction, it can always be added
back, if necessary;
- guarded bpf_get_smp_processor_id() behind x86-64 check (Alexei);
- switched all per-cpu addr casts to (unsigned long) to avoid sparse
warnings.

Using new per-CPU BPF instruction, partially inline
bpf_map_lookup_elem() helper for per-CPU hashmap BPF map. Just like for
normal HASH map, we still generate a call into __htab_map_lookup_elem(),
but after that we resolve per-CPU element address using a new
instruction, saving on extra functions calls.

Add a new BPF instruction for resolving absolute addresses of per-CPU
data from their per-CPU offsets. This instruction is internal-only and
users are not allowed to use them directly. They will only be used for
internal inlining optimizations for now between BPF verifier and BPF JITs.
We use a special BPF_MOV | BPF_ALU64 | BPF_X form with insn->off field
set to BPF_ADDR_PERCPU = -1. I used negative offset value to distinguish
them from positive ones used by user-exposed instructions.
Such instruction performs a resolution of a per-CPU offset stored in
a register to a valid kernel address which can be dereferenced. It is
useful in any use case where absolute address of a per-CPU data has to
be resolved (e.g., in inlining bpf_map_lookup_elem()).
BPF disassembler is also taught to recognize them to support dumping
final BPF assembly code (non-JIT'ed version).
Add arch-specific way for BPF JITs to mark support for this instructions.
This patch also adds support for these instructions in x86-64 BPF JIT.

strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.
bpf sym names get looked up and compared/cleaned with various string
apis. This suggests they need to be NUL-terminated (strncpy() suggests
this but does not guarantee it).
| static int compare_symbol_name(const char *name, char *namebuf)
| {
| cleanup_symbol_name(namebuf);
| return strcmp(name, namebuf);
| }
| static void cleanup_symbol_name(char *s)
| {
| ...
| res = strstr(s, ".llvm.");
| ...
| }
Use strscpy() as this method guarantees NUL-termination on the
destination buffer.
This patch also replaces two uses of strncpy() used in log.c. These are
simple replacements as postfix has been zero-initialized on the stack
and has source arguments with a size less than the destination's size.
Note that this patch uses the new 2-argument version of strscpy
introduced in commit e6584c3964f2f ("string: Allow 2-argument strscpy()").

Introduce a test case to evaluate AF_XDP's robustness by pushing hardware
and software ring sizes to their limits. This test ensures AF_XDP's
reliability amidst potential producer/consumer throttling due to maximum
ring utilization. The testing strategy includes:
1. Configuring rings to their maximum allowable sizes.
2. Executing a series of tests across diverse batch sizes to assess
system's behavior under different configurations.

Add a new test case that stresses AF_XDP and the driver by configuring
small hardware and software ring sizes. This verifies that AF_XDP continues
to function properly even with insufficient ring space that could lead
to frequent producer/consumer throttling. The test procedure involves:
1. Set the minimum possible ring configuration(tx 64 and rx 128).
2. Run tests with various batch sizes(1 and 63) to validate the system's
behavior under different configurations.
Update Makefile to include network_helpers.o in the build process for

This commit duplicates the ethtool.h file from the include/uapi/linux
directory in the kernel source to the tools/include/uapi/linux directory.
This action ensures that the ethtool.h file used in the tools directory

but I preferred to move it over as-is for now to avoid disrupting the code.

LLVM generates bpf_addr_space_cast instruction while translating
pointers between native (zero) address space and
__attribute__((address_space(N))). The addr_space=0 is reserved as
bpf_arena address space.
rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 0, 1) is processed by the verifier and
converted to normal 32-bit move: wX = wY.
rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 1, 0) : used to convert a bpf arena pointer to
a pointer in the userspace vma. This has to be converted by the JIT.

This patch improves the run-time calculation for program stats by
capturing the duration as soon as possible after the program returns.
Previously, the duration included u64_stats_t operations. While the
instrumentation overhead is part of the total time spent when stats are
enabled, distinguishing between the program's native execution time and
the time spent due to instrumentation is crucial for accurate
performance analysis.
By making this change, the patch facilitates more precise optimization
of BPF programs, enabling users to understand their performance in
environments without stats enabled.
I used a virtualized environment to measure the run-time over one minute
for a basic raw_tracepoint/sys_enter program, which just increments a
local counter. Although the virtualization introduced some performance
degradation that could affect the results, I observed approximately a
16% decrease in average run-time reported by stats with this change
(310 -> 260 nsec).

When testing send_signal and stacktrace_build_id_nmi using the riscv sbi
pmu driver without the sscofpmf extension or the riscv legacy pmu driver,
then failures as follows are encountered:
test_send_signal_common:FAIL:perf_event_open unexpected perf_event_open: actual -1 < expected 0
#272/3 send_signal/send_signal_nmi:FAIL
test_stacktrace_build_id_nmi:FAIL:perf_event_open err -1 errno 95
#304 stacktrace_build_id_nmi:FAIL
The reason is that the above pmu driver or hardware does not support
sampling events, that is, PERF_PMU_CAP_NO_INTERRUPT is set to pmu
capabilities, and then perf_event_open returns EOPNOTSUPP. Since
PERF_PMU_CAP_NO_INTERRUPT is not only set in the riscv-related pmu driver,
it is better to skip testing when this capability is set.

When generated BPF skeleton header is included in C++ code base, some
compiler setups will emit warning about using language extensions due to
typeof() usage, resulting in something like:
error: extension used [-Werror,-Wlanguage-extension-token]
obj->struct_ops.empty_tcp_ca = (typeof(obj->struct_ops.empty_tcp_ca))
^
It looks like __typeof__() is a preferred way to do typeof() with better
C++ compatibility behavior, so switch to that. With __typeof__() we get
no such warning.

As it turns out, the terms in definition lists in the rST file are
already rendered with bold-ish formatting when generating the man pages;
all double-star sequences we have in the commands for the command
description are unnecessary, and can be removed to make the
documentation easier to read.
The rST files were automatically processed with:
sed -i '/DESCRIPTION/,/OPTIONS/ { /^\*/ s/\*\*//g }' b*.rst

The rST manual pages for bpftool would use a mix of tabs and spaces for
indentation. While this is the norm in C code, this is rather unusual
for rST documents, and over time we've seen many contributors use a
wrong level of indentation for documentation update.
Let's fix bpftool's indentation in docs once and for all:
- Let's use spaces, that are more common in rST files.
- Remove one level of indentation for the synopsis, the command
description, and the "see also" section. As a result, all sections
start with the same indentation level in the generated man page.
- Rewrap the paragraphs after the changes.
There is no content change in this patch, only indentation and
rewrapping changes. The wrapping in the generated source files for the
manual pages is changed, but the pages displayed with "man" remain the
same, apart from the adjusted indentation level on relevant sections.
[ Quentin: rebased on bpf-next, removed indent level for command
description and options, updated synopsis, command summary, and "see
also" sections. ]

When BPF selftests are built in RELEASE=1 mode with -O2 optimization
level, uprobe_multi binary, called from multi-uprobe tests is optimized
to the point that all the thousands of target uprobe_multi_func_XXX
functions are eliminated, breaking tests.
So ensure they are preserved by using weak attribute.
But, actually, compiling uprobe_multi binary with -O2 takes a really
long time, and is quite useless (it's not a benchmark). So in addition
to ensuring that uprobe_multi_func_XXX functions are preserved, opt-out
of -O2 explicitly in Makefile and stick to -O0. This saves a lot of
compilation time.
With -O2, just recompiling uprobe_multi:
$ touch uprobe_multi.c
$ time make RELEASE=1 -j90
make RELEASE=1 -j90 291.66s user 2.54s system 99% cpu 4:55.52 total
With -O0:
$ touch uprobe_multi.c
$ time make RELEASE=1 -j90
make RELEASE=1 -j90 22.40s user 1.91s system 99% cpu 24.355 total
5 minutes vs (still slow, but...) 24 seconds.

cpu 0:
grab bpf_lpm lock

bpf_lpm lock can be the same.
timer_base lock can also be the same due to timer migration.
but rcu krcp lock is always per-cpu, so it cannot be the same lock.
Hence it's a false positive.
To avoid lockdep complaining move kfree_rcu() after spin_unlock.

It is due to the "void *key" (r2) passed to the helper. bpf allows uninit
stack memory access for bpf prog with the right privileges. This patch
uses kmsan_unpoison_memory() to mark the stack as initialized.
This should address different syzbot reports on the uninit "void *key"

====================
bpf: Fix a couple of test failures with LTO kernel
With a LTO kernel built with clang, with one of earlier version of kernel,
I encountered two test failures, ksyms and kprobe_multi_bench_attach/kernel.
Now with latest bpf-next, only kprobe_multi_bench_attach/kernel failed.
But it is possible in the future ksyms selftest may fail again.
Both test failures are due to static variable/function renaming
due to cross-file inlining. For Ksyms failure, the solution is
to strip .llvm.<hash> suffixes for symbols in /proc/kallsyms before
comparing against the ksym in bpf program.
For kprobe_multi_bench_attach/kernel failure, the solution is
to either provide names in /proc/kallsyms to the kernel or
ignore those names who have .llvm.<hash> suffix since the kernel
sym name comparison is against /proc/kallsyms.
Please see each individual patches for details.
Changelogs:
v2 -> v3:
- no need to check config file, directly so strstr with '.llvm.'.
- for kprobe_multi_bench with syms, instead of skipping the syms,
consult /proc/kallyms to find corresponding names.
- add a test with populating addrs to the kernel for kprobe
multi attach.
v1 -> v2:
- Let libbpf handle .llvm.<hash suffixes since it may impact
bpf program ksym.

Get addrs directly from available_filter_functions_addrs and
send to the kernel during kprobe_multi_attach. This avoids
consultation of /proc/kallsyms. But available_filter_functions_addrs
is introduced in 6.5, i.e., it is introduced recently,
so I skip the test if the kernel does not support it.

There are multiple symbols in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/available_filter_functions
are renamed in /proc/kallsyms due to cross file inlining. One example is for
static function __access_remote_vm in mm/memory.c.
In a non-LTO kernel, we have the following call stack:
ptrace_access_vm (global, kernel/ptrace.c)
access_remote_vm (global, mm/memory.c)
__access_remote_vm (static, mm/memory.c)
With LTO kernel, it is possible that access_remote_vm() is inlined by
ptrace_access_vm(). So we end up with the following call stack:
ptrace_access_vm (global, kernel/ptrace.c)
__access_remote_vm (static, mm/memory.c)
The compiler renames __access_remote_vm to __access_remote_vm.llvm.<hash>
to prevent potential name collision.
The kernel bpf_kprobe_multi_link_attach() and ftrace_lookup_symbols() try
to find addresses based on /proc/kallsyms, hence the current test failed
with LTO kenrel.
This patch consulted /proc/kallsyms to find the corresponding entries
for the ksym and this solved the issue.

With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN enabled, with some of previous
version of kernel code base ([1]), I hit the following
error:
test_ksyms:PASS:kallsyms_fopen 0 nsec
test_ksyms:FAIL:ksym_find symbol 'bpf_link_fops' not found
#118 ksyms:FAIL
The reason is that 'bpf_link_fops' is renamed to
bpf_link_fops.llvm.8325593422554671469
Due to cross-file inlining, the static variable 'bpf_link_fops'
in syscall.c is used by a function in another file. To avoid
potential duplicated names, the llvm added suffix
'.llvm.<hash>' ([2]) to 'bpf_link_fops' variable.
Such renaming caused a problem in libbpf if 'bpf_link_fops'
is used in bpf prog as a ksym but 'bpf_link_fops' does not
match any symbol in /proc/kallsyms.
To fix this issue, libbpf needs to understand that suffix '.llvm.<hash>'
is caused by clang lto kernel and to process such symbols properly.
With latest bpf-next code base built with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN,
I cannot reproduce the above failure any more. But such an issue
could happen with other symbols or in the future for bpf_link_fops symbol.
For example, with my current kernel, I got the following from
/proc/kallsyms:
ffffffff84782154 d __func__.net_ratelimit.llvm.6135436931166841955
ffffffff85f0a500 d tk_core.llvm.726630847145216431
ffffffff85fdb960 d __fs_reclaim_map.llvm.10487989720912350772
ffffffff864c7300 d fake_dst_ops.llvm.54750082607048300
I could not easily create a selftest to test newly-added
libbpf functionality with a static C test since I do not know
which symbol is cross-file inlined. But based on my particular kernel,
the following test change can run successfully.

This patch fixed the issue in libbpf such that
the suffix '.llvm.<hash>' will be ignored during comparison of
bpf prog ksym vs. symbols in /proc/kallsyms, this resolved the issue.
Currently, only static variables in /proc/kallsyms are checked
with '.llvm.<hash>' suffix since in bpf programs function ksyms
with '.llvm.<hash>' suffix are most likely kfunc's and unlikely
to be cross-file inlined.
Note that currently kernel does not support gcc build with lto.

The commit 7aae231ac93b ("bpf: tcp: Limit calling some tcp cc functions to CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE")
added CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE guard because pahole was only generating
btf for ftrace-able functions. The ftrace filter had already been
removed from pahole, so the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE guard can be
removed.
The commit 569c484f9995 ("bpf: Limit static tcp-cc functions in the .BTF_ids list to x86")
has added CONFIG_X86 guard because it failed the powerpc arch which
prepended a "." to the local static function, so "cubictcp_init" becomes
".cubictcp_init". "__bpf_kfunc" has been added to kfunc
since then and it uses the __unused compiler attribute.
There is an existing
"__bpf_kfunc static u32 bpf_kfunc_call_test_static_unused_arg(u32 arg, u32 unused)"
test in bpf_testmod.c to cover the static kfunc case.

Following the recent upgrade of one of our BPF programs, we encountered
significant latency spikes affecting other applications running on the same
host. After thorough investigation, we identified that these spikes were
primarily caused by the prolonged duration required to free a
non-preallocated htab with approximately 2 million keys.
Notably, our kernel configuration lacks the presence of CONFIG_PREEMPT. In
scenarios where kernel execution extends excessively, other threads might
be starved of CPU time, resulting in latency issues across the system. To
mitigate this, we've adopted a proactive approach by incorporating
cond_resched() calls within the kernel code. This ensures that during
lengthy kernel operations, the scheduler is invoked periodically to provide
opportunities for other threads to execute.

Andrii Nakryiko says:
====================
bench: fast in-kernel triggering benchmarks
Remove "legacy" triggering benchmarks which rely on syscalls (and thus syscall
overhead is a noticeable part of benchmark, unfortunately). Replace them with
faster versions that rely on triggering BPF programs in-kernel through another
simple "driver" BPF program. See patch #2 with comparison results.
raw_tp/tp/fmodret benchmarks required adding a simple kfunc in kernel to be
able to trigger a simple tracepoint from BPF program (plus it is also allowed
to be replaced by fmod_ret programs). This limits raw_tp/tp/fmodret benchmarks
to new kernels only, but it keeps bench tool itself very portable and most of
other benchmarks will still work on wide variety of kernels without the need
to worry about building and deploying custom kernel module. See patches #5
and #6 for details.
v1->v2:
- move new TP closer to BPF test run code;
- rename/move kfunc and register it for fmod_rets (Alexei);
- limit --trig-batch-iters param to [1, 1000] (Alexei).

Utilize bpf_modify_return_test_tp() kfunc to have a fast way to trigger
tp/raw_tp/fmodret programs from another BPF program, which gives us
comparable batched benchmarks to (batched) kprobe/fentry benchmarks.
We don't switch kprobe/fentry batched benchmarks to this kfunc to make
bench tool usable on older kernels as well.
