Yonghong Song 223f903e9c bpf: Rename BTF_KIND_TAG to BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG
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].

Grant Seltzer d20b41115a libbpf: Rename libbpf documentation index file
This patch renames a documentation libbpf.rst to index.rst. In order
for readthedocs.org to pick this file up and properly build the
documentation site.

It also changes the title type of the ABI subsection in the
naming convention doc. This is so that readthedocs.org doesn't treat this
section as a separate document.

grantseltzer bb57164920 bpf: Reconfigure libbpf docs to remove unversioned API
This removes the libbpf_api.rst file from the kernel documentation.
The intention for this file was to pull documentation from comments
above API functions in libbpf. However, due to limitations of the
kernel documentation system, this API documentation could not be
versioned, which is counterintuative to how users expect to use it.
There is also currently no doc comments, making this a blank page.

Once the kernel comment documentation is actually contributed, it
will still exist in the kernel repository, just in the code itself.

A seperate site is being spun up to generate documentaiton from those
comments in a way in which it can be versioned properly.

This also reconfigures the bpf documentation index page to make it
easier to sync to the previously mentioned documentaiton site.

Grant Seltzer f42cfb469f bpf: Add documentation for libbpf including API autogen
This patch is meant to start the initiative to document libbpf.
It includes .rst files which are text documentation describing building,
API naming convention, as well as an index to generated API documentation.

In this approach the generated API documentation is enabled by the kernels
existing kernel documentation system which uses sphinx. The resulting docs
would then be synced to kernel.org/doc

You can test this by running `make htmldocs` and serving the html in
Documentation/output. Since libbpf does not yet have comments in kernel
doc format, see kernel.org/doc/html/latest/doc-guide/kernel-doc.html for
an example so you can test this.

The advantage of this approach is to use the existing sphinx
infrastructure that the kernel has, and have libbpf docs in
the same place as everything else.

The current plan is to have the libbpf mirror sync the generated docs
and version them based on the libbpf releases which are cut on github.

This patch includes the addition of libbpf_api.rst which pulls comment
documentation from header files in libbpf under tools/lib/bpf/. The comment
docs would be of the standard kernel doc format.

Tiezhu Yang 350a62ca06 bpf: Document the pahole release info related to libbpf in bpf_devel_QA.rst
pahole starts to use libbpf definitions and APIs since v1.13 after the
commit 21507cd3e97b ("pahole: add libbpf as submodule under lib/bpf").
It works well with the git repository because the libbpf submodule will
use "git submodule update --init --recursive" to update.

Unfortunately, the default github release source code does not contain
libbpf submodule source code and this will cause build issues, the tarball
from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/ is same with
github, you can get the source tarball with corresponding libbpf submodule
codes from

https://fedorapeople.org/~acme/dwarves

This change documents the above issues to give more information so that
we can get the tarball from the right place, early discussion is here:

Tiezhu Yang 628add78b0 bpf, docs: Update build procedure for manually compiling LLVM and Clang
The current LLVM and Clang build procedure in samples/bpf/README.rst is
out of date. See below that the links are not accessible any more.

  $ git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git
  Cloning into 'llvm'...
  fatal: unable to access 'http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git/': Maximum (20) redirects followed
  $ git clone --depth 1 http://llvm.org/git/clang.git
  Cloning into 'clang'...
  fatal: unable to access 'http://llvm.org/git/clang.git/': Maximum (20) redirects followed

The LLVM community has adopted new ways to build the compiler. There are
different ways to build LLVM and Clang, the Clang Getting Started page [1]
has one way. As Yonghong said, it is better to copy the build procedure
in Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst to keep consistent.

I verified the procedure and it is proved to be feasible, so we should
update README.rst to reflect the reality. At the same time, update the
related comment in Makefile.

Additionally, as Fangrui said, the dir llvm-project/llvm/build/install is
not used, BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF is the default option [2], so also change
Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst together.

At last, we recommend that developers who want the fastest incremental
builds use the Ninja build system [1], you can find it in your system's
package manager, usually the package is ninja or ninja-build [3], so add
ninja to build dependencies suggested by Nathan.

Qais Yousef 6939f4ef16 trace: bpf: Allow bpf to attach to bare tracepoints
Some subsystems only have bare tracepoints (a tracepoint with no
associated trace event) to avoid the problem of trace events being an
ABI that can't be changed.

>From bpf presepective, bare tracepoints are what it calls
RAW_TRACEPOINT().

Since bpf assumed there's 1:1 mapping, it relied on hooking to
DEFINE_EVENT() macro to create bpf mapping of the tracepoints. Since
bare tracepoints use DECLARE_TRACE() to create the tracepoint, bpf had
no knowledge about their existence.

By teaching bpf_probe.h to parse DECLARE_TRACE() in a similar fashion to
DEFINE_EVENT(), bpf can find and attach to the new raw tracepoints.

Enabling that comes with the contract that changes to raw tracepoints
don't constitute a regression if they break existing bpf programs.
We need the ability to continue to morph and modify these raw
tracepoints without worrying about any ABI.

Update Documentation/bpf/bpf_design_QA.rst to document this contract.

Two minor conflicts:

1) net/ipv4/route.c, adding a new local variable while
   moving another local variable and removing it's
   initial assignment.

2) drivers/net/dsa/microchip/ksz9477.c, overlapping changes.
   One pretty prints the port mode differently, whilst another
   changes the driver to try and obtain the port mode from

Andrey Ignatov 8c061865f5 bpf: Document bpf_inspect drgn tool
It's a follow-up for discussion in [1].

drgn tool bpf_inspect.py was merged to drgn repo in [2]. Document it
in kernel tree to make BPF developers aware that the tool exists and
can help with getting BPF state unavailable via UAPI.

For now it's just one tool but the doc is written in a way that allows
to cover more tools in the future if needed.

Please refer to the doc itself for more details.

The patch was tested by `make htmldocs` and sanity-checking that
resulting html looks good.

v2 -> v3:
  - two sections: "Description" and "Getting started" (Daniel);
  - add examples in "Getting started" section (Daniel);
  - add "Customization" section to show how tool can be customized.

v1 -> v2:
  - better "BPF drgn tools" section (Alexei)

Yonghong Song e42da4c62a docs/bpf: Update bpf development Q/A file
bpf now has its own mailing list bpf@vger.kernel.org.
Update the bpf_devel_QA.rst file to reflect this.

Also llvm has switch to github with llvm and clang
in the same repo https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git.
Update the QA file with newer build instructions.

Stanislav Fomichev a11c397c43 bpf/flow_dissector: add mode to enforce global BPF flow dissector
Always use init_net flow dissector BPF program if it's attached and fall
back to the per-net namespace one. Also, deny installing new programs if
there is already one attached to the root namespace.
Users can still detach their BPF programs, but can't attach any
new ones (-EEXIST).
