Add APIs providing read-only access to bpf_program BPF instructions ([0]).
This is useful for diagnostics purposes, but it also allows a cleaner
support for cloning BPF programs after libbpf did all the FD resolution
and CO-RE relocations, subprog instructions appending, etc. Currently,
cloning BPF program is possible only through hijacking a half-broken
bpf_program__set_prep() API, which doesn't really work well for anything
but most primitive programs. For instance, set_prep() API doesn't allow
adjusting BPF program load parameters which are necessary for loading
fentry/fexit BPF programs (the case where BPF program cloning is
a necessity if doing some sort of mass-attachment functionality).
Given bpf_program__set_prep() API is set to be deprecated, having
a cleaner alternative is a must. libbpf internally already keeps track
of linear array of struct bpf_insn, so it's not hard to expose it. The
only gotcha is that libbpf previously freed instructions array during
bpf_object load time, which would make this API much less useful overall,
because in between bpf_object__open() and bpf_object__load() a lot of
changes to instructions are done by libbpf.
So this patch makes libbpf hold onto prog->insns array even after BPF
program loading. I think this is a small price for added functionality
and improved introspection of BPF program code.
See retsnoop PR ([1]) for how it can be used in practice and code
savings compared to relying on bpf_program__set_prep().

Add btf__type_cnt() and btf__raw_data() APIs and deprecate
btf__get_nr_type() and btf__get_raw_data() since the old APIs
don't follow the libbpf naming convention for getters which
omit 'get' in the name (see [0]). btf__raw_data() is just an
alias to the existing btf__get_raw_data(). btf__type_cnt()
now returns the number of all types of the BTF object
including 'void'.

Map name that's assigned to internal maps (.rodata, .data, .bss, etc)
consist of a small prefix of bpf_object's name and ELF section name as
a suffix. This makes it hard for users to "guess" the name to use for
looking up by name with bpf_object__find_map_by_name() API.
One proposal was to drop object name prefix from the map name and just
use ".rodata", ".data", etc, names. One downside called out was that
when multiple BPF applications are active on the host, it will be hard
to distinguish between multiple instances of .rodata and know which BPF
object (app) they belong to. Having few first characters, while quite
limiting, still can give a bit of a clue, in general.
Note, though, that btf_value_type_id for such global data maps (ARRAY)
points to DATASEC type, which encodes full ELF name, so tools like
bpftool can take advantage of this fact to "recover" full original name
of the map. This is also the reason why for custom .data.* and .rodata.*
maps libbpf uses only their ELF names and doesn't prepend object name at
all.
Another downside of such approach is that it is not backwards compatible
and, among direct use of bpf_object__find_map_by_name() API, will break
any BPF skeleton generated using bpftool that was compiled with older
libbpf version.
Instead of causing all this pain, libbpf will still generate map name
using a combination of object name and ELF section name, but it will
allow looking such maps up by their natural names, which correspond to
their respective ELF section names. This means non-truncated ELF section
names longer than 15 characters are going to be expected and supported.
With such set up, we get the best of both worlds: leave small bits of
a clue about BPF application that instantiated such maps, as well as
making it easy for user apps to lookup such maps at runtime. In this
sense it closes corresponding libbpf 1.0 issue ([0]).
BPF skeletons will continue using full names for lookups.

Add support for having multiple .rodata and .data data sections ([0]).
.rodata/.data are supported like the usual, but now also
.rodata.<whatever> and .data.<whatever> are also supported. Each such
section will get its own backing BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY, just like
.rodata and .data.
Multiple .bss maps are not supported, as the whole '.bss' name is
confusing and might be deprecated soon, as well as user would need to
specify custom ELF section with SEC() attribute anyway, so might as well
stick to just .data.* and .rodata.* convention.
User-visible map name for such new maps is going to be just their ELF
section names.

Remove internal libbpf assumption that there can be only one .rodata,
.data, and .bss map per BPF object. To achieve that, extend and
generalize the scheme that was used for keeping track of relocation ELF
sections. Now each ELF section has a temporary extra index that keeps
track of logical type of ELF section (relocations, data, read-only data,
BSS). Switch relocation to this scheme, as well as .rodata/.data/.bss
handling.
We don't yet allow multiple .rodata, .data, and .bss sections, but no
libbpf internal code makes an assumption that there can be only one of
each and thus they can be explicitly referenced by a single index. Next
patches will actually allow multiple .rodata and .data sections.

Minimize the usage of class-agnostic gelf_xxx() APIs from libelf. These
APIs require copying ELF data structures into local GElf_xxx structs and
have a more cumbersome API. BPF ELF file is defined to be always 64-bit
ELF object, even when intended to be run on 32-bit host architectures,
so there is no need to do class-agnostic conversions everywhere. BPF
static linker implementation within libbpf has been using Elf64-specific
types since initial implementation.
Add two simple helpers, elf_sym_by_idx() and elf_rel_by_idx(), for more
succinct direct access to ELF symbol and relocation records within ELF
data itself and switch all the GElf_xxx usage into Elf64_xxx
equivalents. The only remaining place within libbpf.c that's still using
gelf API is gelf_getclass(), as there doesn't seem to be a direct way to
get underlying ELF bitness.
No functional changes intended.

There isn't a good use case where anyone but libbpf itself needs to call
btf__finalize_data(). It was implemented for internal use and it's not
clear why it was made into public API in the first place. To function, it
requires active ELF data, which is stored inside bpf_object for the
duration of opening phase only. But the only BTF that needs bpf_object's
ELF is that bpf_object's BTF itself, which libbpf fixes up automatically
during bpf_object__open() operation anyways. There is no need for any
additional fix up and no reasonable scenario where it's useful and
appropriate.
Thus, btf__finalize_data() is just an API atavism and is better removed.
So this patch marks it as deprecated immediately (v0.6+) and moves the
code from btf.c into libbpf.c where it's used in the context of
bpf_object opening phase. Such code co-location allows to make code
structure more straightforward and remove bpf_object__section_size() and
bpf_object__variable_offset() internal helpers from libbpf_internal.h,
making them static. Their naming is also adjusted to not create
a wrong illusion that they are some sort of method of bpf_object. They
are internal helpers and are called appropriately.
This is part of libbpf 1.0 effort ([0]).

Patch set [1] introduced BTF_KIND_TAG to allow tagging
declarations for struct/union, struct/union field, var, func
and func arguments and these tags will be encoded into
dwarf. They are also encoded to btf by llvm for the bpf target.
After BTF_KIND_TAG is introduced, we intended to use it
for kernel __user attributes. But kernel __user is actually
a type attribute. Upstream and internal discussion showed
it is not a good idea to mix declaration attribute and
type attribute. So we proposed to introduce btf_type_tag
as a type attribute and existing btf_tag renamed to
btf_decl_tag ([2]).
This patch renamed BTF_KIND_TAG to BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG and some
other declarations with *_tag to *_decl_tag to make it clear
the tag is for declaration. In the future, BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG
might be introduced per [3].

This change updates the BPF syscall loader to relocate BTF_KIND_FUNC
relocations, with support for weak kfunc relocations. The general idea
is to move map_fds to loader map, and also use the data for storing
kfunc BTF fds. Since both reuse the fd_array parameter, they need to be
kept together.
For map_fds, we reserve MAX_USED_MAPS slots in a region, and for kfunc,
we reserve MAX_KFUNC_DESCS. This is done so that insn->off has more
chances of being <= INT16_MAX than treating data map as a sparse array
and adding fd as needed.
When the MAX_KFUNC_DESCS limit is reached, we fall back to the sparse
array model, so that as long as it does remain <= INT16_MAX, we pass an
index relative to the start of fd_array.
We store all ksyms in an array where we try to avoid calling the
bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind helper, and also reuse the BTF fd that was
already stored. This also speeds up the loading process compared to
emitting calls in all cases, in later tests.

Preserve these calls as it allows verifier to succeed in loading the
program if they are determined to be unreachable after dead code
elimination during program load. If not, the verifier will fail at

This patch adds libbpf support for kernel module function call support.
The fd_array parameter is used during BPF program load to pass module
BTFs referenced by the program. insn->off is set to index into this
array, but starts from 1, because insn->off as 0 is reserved for
btf_vmlinux.
We try to use existing insn->off for a module, since the kernel limits
the maximum distinct module BTFs for kfuncs to 256, and also because
index must never exceed the maximum allowed value that can fit in
insn->off (INT16_MAX). In the future, if kernel interprets signed offset
as unsigned for kfunc calls, this limit can be increased to UINT16_MAX.
Also introduce a btf__find_by_name_kind_own helper to start searching
from module BTF's start id when we know that the BTF ID is not present
in vmlinux BTF (in find_ksym_btf_id).

A bunch of BPF maps do not support specifying BTF types for key and value.
This is non-uniform and inconvenient[0]. Currently, libbpf uses a retry
logic which removes BTF type IDs when BPF map creation failed. Instead
of retrying, this commit recognizes those specialized maps and removes
BTF type IDs when creating BPF map.

Implement strict ELF section name handling for BPF programs. It utilizes
`libbpf_set_strict_mode()` framework and adds new flag: LIBBPF_STRICT_SEC_NAME.
If this flag is set, libbpf will enforce exact section name matching for
a lot of program types that previously allowed just partial prefix
match. E.g., if previously SEC("xdp_whatever_i_want") was allowed, now
in strict mode only SEC("xdp") will be accepted, which makes SEC("")
definitions cleaner and more structured. SEC() now won't be used as yet
another way to uniquely encode BPF program identifier (for that
C function name is better and is guaranteed to be unique within
bpf_object). Now SEC() is strictly BPF program type and, depending on
program type, extra load/attach parameter specification.
Libbpf completely supports multiple BPF programs in the same ELF
section, so multiple BPF programs of the same type/specification easily
co-exist together within the same bpf_object scope.
Additionally, a new (for now internal) convention is introduced: section
name that can be a stand-alone exact BPF program type specificator, but
also could have extra parameters after '/' delimiter. An example of such
section is "struct_ops", which can be specified by itself, but also
allows to specify the intended operation to be attached to, e.g.,
"struct_ops/dctcp_init". Note, that "struct_ops_some_op" is not allowed.
Such section definition is specified as "struct_ops+".

Refactor ELF section handler definitions table to use a set of flags and
unified SEC_DEF() macro. This allows for more succinct and table-like
set of definitions, and allows to more easily extend the logic without
adding more verbosity (this is utilized in later patches in the series).
This approach is also making libbpf-internal program pre-load callback
not rely on bpf_sec_def definition, which demonstrates that future
pluggable ELF section handlers will be able to achieve similar level of
integration without libbpf having to expose extra types and APIs.
For starters, update SEC_DEF() definitions and make them more succinct.
Also convert BPF_PROG_SEC() and BPF_APROG_COMPAT() definitions to
a common SEC_DEF() use.

Move closer to not relying on bpf_sec_def internals that won't be part
of public API, when pluggable SEC() handlers will be allowed. Drop
pre-calculated prefix length, and in various helpers don't rely on this
prefix length availability. Also minimize reliance on knowing
bpf_sec_def's prefix for few places where section prefix shortcuts are
supported (e.g., tp vs tracepoint, raw_tp vs raw_tracepoint).
Given checking some string for having a given string-constant prefix is
such a common operation and so annoying to be done with pure C code, add
a small macro helper, str_has_pfx(), and reuse it throughout libbpf.c
where prefix comparison is performed. With __builtin_constant_p() it's
possible to have a convenient helper that checks some string for having
a given prefix, where prefix is either string literal (or compile-time
known string due to compiler optimization) or just a runtime string
pointer, which is quite convenient and saves a lot of typing and string
literal duplication.

Refactor internals of libbpf to allow adding custom SEC() handling logic
easily from outside of libbpf. To that effect, each SEC()-handling
registration sets mandatory program type/expected attach type for
a given prefix and can provide three callbacks called at different
points of BPF program lifetime:
- init callback for right after bpf_program is initialized and
prog_type/expected_attach_type is set. This happens during
bpf_object__open() step, close to the very end of constructing
bpf_object, so all the libbpf APIs for querying and updating
bpf_program properties should be available;
- pre-load callback is called right before BPF_PROG_LOAD command is
called in the kernel. This callbacks has ability to set both
bpf_program properties, as well as program load attributes, overriding
and augmenting the standard libbpf handling of them;
- optional auto-attach callback, which makes a given SEC() handler
support auto-attachment of a BPF program through bpf_program__attach()
API and/or BPF skeletons <skel>__attach() method.
Each callbacks gets a `long cookie` parameter passed in, which is
specified during SEC() handling. This can be used by callbacks to lookup
whatever additional information is necessary.
This is not yet completely ready to be exposed to the outside world,
mainly due to non-public nature of struct bpf_prog_load_params. Instead
of making it part of public API, we'll wait until the planned low-level
libbpf API improvements for BPF_PROG_LOAD and other typical bpf()
syscall APIs, at which point we'll have a public, probably OPTS-based,
way to fully specify BPF program load parameters, which will be used as
an interface for custom pre-load callbacks.
But this change itself is already a good first step to unify the BPF
program hanling logic even within the libbpf itself. As one example, all
the extra per-program type handling (sleepable bit, attach_btf_id
resolution, unsetting optional expected attach type) is now more obvious
and is gathered in one place.

When parsing legacy map definitions, libbpf would error out when
encountering an STT_SECTION symbol. This becomes a problem because some
versions of binutils will produce SECTION symbols for every section when
processing an ELF file, so BPF files run through 'strip' will end up with
such symbols, making libbpf refuse to load them.
There's not really any reason why erroring out is strictly necessary, so
change libbpf to just ignore SECTION symbols when parsing the ELF.

Similarly to recently added legacy kprobe attach interface support
through tracefs, support attaching uprobes using the legacy interface if
host kernel doesn't support newer FD-based interface.
For uprobes event name consists of "libbpf_" prefix, PID, sanitized
binary path and offset within that binary. Structuraly the code is
aligned with kprobe logic refactoring in previous patch. struct
bpf_link_perf is re-used and all the same legacy_probe_name and
legacy_is_retprobe fields are used to ensure proper cleanup on
bpf_link__destroy().
Users should be aware, though, that on old kernels which don't support
FD-based interface for kprobe/uprobe attachment, if the application
crashes before bpf_link__destroy() is called, uprobe legacy
events will be left in tracefs. This is the same limitation as with
legacy kprobe interfaces.

Refactor legacy kprobe handling code to follow the same logic as uprobe
legacy logic added in the next patchs:
- add append_to_file() helper that makes it simpler to work with
tracefs file-based interface for creating and deleting probes;
- move out probe/event name generation outside of the code that
adds/removes it, which simplifies bookkeeping significantly;
- change the probe name format to start with "libbpf_" prefix and
include offset within kernel function;
- switch 'unsigned long' to 'size_t' for specifying kprobe offsets,
which is consistent with how uprobes define that, simplifies
printf()-ing internally, and also avoids unnecessary complications on
architectures where sizeof(long) != sizeof(void *).
This patch also implicitly fixes the problem with invalid open() error
handling present in poke_kprobe_events(), which (the function) this
patch removes.

bpf_object_open_opts.attach_prog_fd makes a pretty strong assumption
that bpf_object contains either only single freplace BPF program or all
of BPF programs in BPF object are freplaces intended to replace
different subprograms of the same target BPF program. This seems both
a bit confusing, too assuming, and limiting.
We've had bpf_program__set_attach_target() API which allows more
fine-grained control over this, on a per-program level. As such, mark
open_opts.attach_prog_fd as deprecated starting from v0.7, so that we
have one more universal way of setting freplace targets. With previous
change to allow NULL attach_func_name argument, and especially combined
with BPF skeleton, arguable bpf_program__set_attach_target() is a more
convenient and explicit API as well.

Allow to use bpf_program__set_attach_target to only set target attach
program FD, while letting libbpf to use target attach function name from
SEC() definition. This might be useful for some scenarios where
bpf_object contains multiple related freplace BPF programs intended to
replace different sub-programs in target BPF program. In such case all
programs will have the same attach_prog_fd, but different
attach_func_name. It's convenient to specify such target function names
declaratively in SEC() definitions, but attach_prog_fd is a dynamic
runtime setting.
To simplify such scenario, allow bpf_program__set_attach_target() to
delay BTF ID resolution till the BPF program load time by providing NULL
attach_func_name. In that case the behavior will be similar to using
bpf_object_open_opts.attach_prog_fd (which is marked deprecated since
v0.7), but has the benefit of allowing more control by user in what is
attached to what. Such setup allows having BPF programs attached to
different target attach_prog_fd with target functions still declaratively
recorded in BPF source code in SEC() definitions.
Selftests changes in the next patch should make this more obvious.

Refactor bpf_object__open() sequencing to perform BPF program type
detection based on SEC() definitions before we get to relocations
collection. This allows to have more information about BPF program by
the time we get to, say, struct_ops relocation gathering. This,
subsequently, simplifies struct_ops logic and removes the need to
perform extra find_sec_def() resolution.
With this patch libbpf will require all struct_ops BPF programs to be
marked with SEC("struct_ops") or SEC("struct_ops/xxx") annotations.
Real-world applications are already doing that through something like
selftests's BPF_STRUCT_OPS() macro. This change streamlines libbpf's
internal handling of SEC() definitions and is in the sprit of
upcoming libbpf-1.0 section strictness changes ([0]).

Store legacy kprobe name in struct bpf_perf_link, instead of creating

When attaching to uprobes through perf subsystem, it's possible to specify
offset of a so-called USDT semaphore, which is just a reference counted u16,
used by kernel to keep track of how many tracers are attached to a given
location. Support for this feature was added in [0], so just wire this through
uprobe_opts. This is important to enable implementing USDT attachment and

Detect kernel support for BPF perf link and prefer it when attaching to
perf_event, tracepoint, kprobe/uprobe. Underlying perf_event FD will be kept
open until BPF link is destroyed, at which point both perf_event FD and BPF
link FD will be closed.
This preserves current behavior in which perf_event FD is open for the
duration of bpf_link's lifetime and user is able to "disconnect" bpf_link from
underlying FD (with bpf_link__disconnect()), so that bpf_link__destroy()
doesn't close underlying perf_event FD.When BPF perf link is used, disconnect
will keep both perf_event and bpf_link FDs open, so it will be up to
(advanced) user to close them. This approach is demonstrated in bpf_cookie.c
selftests, added in this patch set.

Currently weak typeless ksyms have default value zero, when they don't
exist in the kernel. However, weak typed ksyms are rejected by libbpf
if they can not be resolved. This means that if a bpf object contains
the declaration of a nonexistent weak typed ksym, it will be rejected
even if there is no program that references the symbol.
Nonexistent weak typed ksyms can also default to zero just like
typeless ones. This allows programs that access weak typed ksyms to be
accepted by verifier, if the accesses are guarded. For example,
extern const int bpf_link_fops3 __ksym __weak;
/* then in BPF program */
if (&bpf_link_fops3) {
/* use bpf_link_fops3 */
}
If actual use of nonexistent typed ksym is not guarded properly,
verifier would see that register is not PTR_TO_BTF_ID and wouldn't
allow to use it for direct memory reads or passing it to BPF helpers.

Rename function btf__get_from_id() as btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() to
better indicate what the function does. Change the new function so that,
instead of requiring a pointer to the pointer to update and returning
with an error code, it takes a single argument (the id of the BTF

the existing constructors.
The other tools calling the (soon-to-be) deprecated btf__get_from_id()
function will be updated in a future commit.
