Jesper Dangaard Brouer e3d91b0ca5 tools/libbpf: handle issues with bpf ELF objects containing .eh_frames
V3: More generic skipping of relo-section (suggested by Daniel)

If clang >= 4.0.1 is missing the option '-target bpf', it will cause
llc/llvm to create two ELF sections for "Exception Frames", with
section names '.eh_frame' and '.rel.eh_frame'.

The BPF ELF loader library libbpf fails when loading files with these
sections.  The other in-kernel BPF ELF loader in samples/bpf/bpf_load.c,
handle this gracefully. And iproute2 loader also seems to work with these
"eh" sections.

The issue in libbpf is caused by bpf_object__elf_collect() skipping
some sections, and later when performing relocation it will be
pointing to a skipped section, as these sections cannot be found by
bpf_object__find_prog_by_idx() in bpf_object__collect_reloc().

This is a general issue that also occurs for other sections, like
debug sections which are also skipped and can have relo section.

As suggested by Daniel.  To avoid keeping state about all skipped
sections, instead perform a direct qlookup in the ELF object.  Lookup
the section that the relo-section points to and check if it contains
executable machine instructions (denoted by the sh_flags
SHF_EXECINSTR).  Use this check to also skip irrelevant relo-sections.

Note, for samples/bpf/ the '-target bpf' parameter to clang cannot be used
due to incompatibility with asm embedded headers, that some of the samples
include. This is explained in more details by Yonghong Song in bpf_devel_QA.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer 077c066a6c tools/libbpf: improve the pr_debug statements to contain section numbers
While debugging a bpf ELF loading issue, I needed to correlate the
ELF section number with the failed relocation section reference.
Thus, add section numbers/index to the pr_debug.

In debug mode, also print section that were skipped.  This helped
me identify that a section (.eh_frame) was skipped, and this was
the reason the relocation section (.rel.eh_frame) could not find
that section number.

The section numbers corresponds to the readelf tools Section Headers [Nr].

Quentin Monnet 0badd33149 libbpf: complete list of strings for guessing program type
It seems that the type guessing feature for libbpf, based on the name of
the ELF section the program is located in, was inspired from
samples/bpf/prog_load.c, which was not used by any sample for loading
programs of certain types such as TC actions and classifiers, or
LWT-related types. As a consequence, libbpf is not able to guess the
type of such programs and to load them automatically if type is not
provided to the `bpf_load_prog()` function.

Add ELF section names associated to those eBPF program types so that
they can be loaded with e.g. bpftool as well.

Quentin Monnet d77be68955 libbpf: fix string comparison for guessing eBPF program type
libbpf is able to deduce the type of a program from the name of the ELF
section in which it is located. However, the comparison is made on the
first n characters, n being determined with sizeof() applied to the
reference string (e.g. "xdp"). When such section names are supposed to
receive a suffix separated with a slash (e.g. "kprobe/"), using sizeof()
takes the final NUL character of the reference string into account,
which implies that both strings must be equal. Instead, the desired
behaviour would consist in taking the length of the string, *without*
accounting for the ending NUL character, and to make sure the reference
string is a prefix to the ELF section name.

Subtract 1 to the total size of the string for obtaining the length for
the comparison.

Roman Gushchin fe4d44b23f libbpf: prefer global symbols as bpf program name source
Libbpf picks the name of the first symbol in the corresponding
elf section to use as a program name. But without taking symbol's
scope into account it may end's up with some local label
as a program name. E.g.:

$ bpftool prog
1: type 15  name LBB0_10    tag 0390a5136ba23f5c
	loaded_at Dec 07/17:22  uid 0
	xlated 456B  not jited  memlock 4096B

Fix this by preferring global symbols as program name.

For instance:
$ bpftool prog
1: type 15  name bpf_prog1  tag 0390a5136ba23f5c
	loaded_at Dec 07/17:26  uid 0

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Object files with maps sections smaller than expected will have the new
fields initialized to zero.  Object files which have larger than expected
maps sections will be rejected unless all of the unrecognized data is zero.

This change still assumes that each map definition in the maps section
is the same size.

Martin KaFai Lau 88cda1c9da bpf: libbpf: Provide basic API support to specify BPF obj name
This patch extends the libbpf to provide API support to
allow specifying BPF object name.

In tools/lib/bpf/libbpf, the C symbol of the function
and the map is used.  Regarding section name, all maps are
under the same section named "maps".  Hence, section name
is not a good choice for map's name.  To be consistent with
map, bpf_prog also follows and uses its function symbol as
the prog's name.

This patch adds logic to collect function's symbols in libbpf.
There is existing codes to collect the map's symbols and no change
is needed.

The bpf_load_program_name() and bpf_map_create_name() are
added to take the name argument.  For the other bpf_map_create_xxx()
variants, a name argument is directly added to them.

In samples/bpf, bpf_load.c in particular, the symbol is also
used as the map's name and the map symbols has already been
collected in the existing code.  For bpf_prog, bpf_load.c does
not collect the function symbol name.  We can consider to collect
them later if there is a need to continue supporting the bpf_load.c.

John Fastabend 464bc0fd62 bpf: convert sockmap field attach_bpf_fd2 to type
In the initial sockmap API we provided strparser and verdict programs
using a single attach command by extending the attach API with a the
attach_bpf_fd2 field.

However, if we add other programs in the future we will be adding a
field for every new possible type, attach_bpf_fd(3,4,..). This
seems a bit clumsy for an API. So lets push the programs using two
new type fields.

   BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_PARSER
   BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_VERDICT

This has the advantage of having a readable name and can easily be
extended in the future.

Updates to samples and sockmap included here also generalize tests
slightly to support upcoming patch for multiple map support.

Daniel Díaz f15d5e6dba tools lib bpf: Fix double file test in Makefile
The Makefile verifies the same file exists twice:
  test -f ../../../include/uapi/linux/bpf.h -a \
       -f ../../../include/uapi/linux/bpf.h

The purpose of the check is to ensure the diff (immediately after the
test) doesn't fail with these two files:

  tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
  include/uapi/linux/bpf.h

Same recipe for bpf_common:
  test -f ../../../include/uapi/linux/bpf_common.h -a \
       -f ../../../include/uapi/linux/bpf_common.h

This corrects the location of the tests.

Ingo Molnar 8255e1efc1 perf build: Clarify open-coded header version warning message
In this patch we changed the header checks:

  perf build: Clarify header version warning message

Unfortunately the header checks were copied to various places and thus the message got
out of sync. Fix some of them here.

Note that there's still old, misleading messages remaining in:

  tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
  tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: orc_types.h differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true

here objtool copied the perf message, plus:

 tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/Build: || echo "Warning: Intel PT: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true

here the PT code regressed over the original message and only emits a vague warning
instead of specific file names...

All of this should be consolidated into tools/Build/ and used in a consistent
manner.

Jakub Kicinski d777b2ddbe bpf: don't zero out the info struct in bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd()
The buffer passed to bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd() should be initialized
to zeros.  Kernel will enforce that to guarantee we can safely extend
info structures in the future.

Making the bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd() call in libbpf perform the zeroing
is problematic, however, since some members of the info structures
may need to be initialized by the callers (for instance pointers
to buffers to which kernel is to dump translated and jited images).

Remove the zeroing and fix up the in-tree callers before any kernel
has been released with this code.

As Daniel points out this seems to be the intended operation anyway,
since commit 95b9afd398 ("bpf: Test for bpf ID") is itself setting
the buffer pointers before calling bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd().

   - Add 'e' and 'c' hotkeys to expand/collapse call chains for a single
     hist entry in the 'perf report' and 'perf top' TUI (Jiri Olsa)

   - Account thread wait time (off CPU time) separately: sleep, iowait
     and preempt, based on the prev_state of the last event, show the
     breakdown when using "perf sched timehist --state" (Namhyumg Kim)

   - Add more triggers to switch the output file (perf.data.TIMESTAMP).

     Now, in addition to switching to a different output file when
     receiving a SIGUSR2, one can also specify file size and time based
     triggers:

           perf record -a --switch-output=signal

     is equivalent to what we had before:

           perf record -a --switch-output

     While we can also ask for the file to be "sliced" by size, taking
     into account that that will happen only when we get woken up by the
     kernel, i.e. one has to take into account the --mmap-pages (the
     size of the perf mmap ring buffer):

           perf record -a --switch-output=2G

     will break the perf.data output into multiple files limited to 2GB
     of samples, right when generating the output.

     For time based samples, alert() will be used, so to have 1 minute
     limited perf.data output files:

          perf record -a --switch-output=1m

   - Improve 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - 'perf kallsyms' toy tool to look for extended symbol information on
     the running kernel and demonstrate the machine/thread/symbol APIs
     for use in other tools, such as 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de
     Melo)

   - ... plus tons of other changes, see the shortlog and Git log for
     details"
