Toke Høiland-Jørgensen 113e6b7e15 libbpf: Sanitise internal map names so they are not rejected by the kernel
The kernel only accepts map names with alphanumeric characters, underscores
and periods in their name. However, the auto-generated internal map names
used by libbpf takes their prefix from the user-supplied BPF object name,
which has no such restriction. This can lead to "Invalid argument" errors
when trying to load a BPF program using global variables.

Fix this by sanitising the map names, replacing any non-allowed characters
with underscores.

Andrii Nakryiko d7a252708d libbpf: Improve handling of failed CO-RE relocations
Previously, if libbpf failed to resolve CO-RE relocation for some
instructions, it would either return error immediately, or, if
.relaxed_core_relocs option was set, would replace relocatable offset/imm part
of an instruction with a bogus value (-1). Neither approach is good, because
there are many possible scenarios where relocation is expected to fail (e.g.,
when some field knowingly can be missing on specific kernel versions). On the
other hand, replacing offset with invalid one can hide programmer errors, if
this relocation failue wasn't anticipated.

This patch deprecates .relaxed_core_relocs option and changes the approach to
always replacing instruction, for which relocation failed, with invalid BPF
helper call instruction. For cases where this is expected, BPF program should
already ensure that that instruction is unreachable, in which case this
invalid instruction is going to be silently ignored. But if instruction wasn't
guarded, BPF program will be rejected at verification step with verifier log
pointing precisely to the place in assembly where the problem is.

Alexei Starovoitov 2db6eab18b libbpf: Add support for program extensions
Add minimal support for program extensions. bpf_object_open_opts() needs to be
called with attach_prog_fd = target_prog_fd and BPF program extension needs to
have in .c file section definition like SEC("freplace/func_to_be_replaced").
libbpf will search for "func_to_be_replaced" in the target_prog_fd's BTF and
will pass it in attach_btf_id to the kernel. This approach works for tests, but
more compex use case may need to request function name (and attach_btf_id that
kernel sees) to be more dynamic. Such API will be added in future patches.

KP Singh a6ed02cac6 libbpf: Load btf_vmlinux only once per object.
As more programs (TRACING, STRUCT_OPS, and upcoming LSM) use vmlinux
BTF information, loading the BTF vmlinux information for every program
in an object is sub-optimal. The fix was originally proposed in:

   https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/CAEf4BzZodr3LKJuM7QwD38BiEH02Cc1UbtnGpVkCJ00Mf+V_Qg@mail.gmail.com/

The btf_vmlinux is populated in the object if any of the programs in
the object requires it just before the programs are loaded and freed
after the programs finish loading.

Andrii Nakryiko 9173cac3b6 libbpf: Support .text sub-calls relocations
The LLVM patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D72197 makes LLVM emit function call
relocations within the same section. This includes a default .text section,
which contains any BPF sub-programs. This wasn't the case before and so libbpf
was able to get a way with slightly simpler handling of subprogram call
relocations.

This patch adds support for .text section relocations. It needs to ensure
correct order of relocations, so does two passes:
- first, relocate .text instructions, if there are any relocations in it;
- then process all the other programs and copy over patched .text instructions
for all sub-program calls.

v1->v2:
- break early once .text program is processed.

Andrii Nakryiko 1d1a3bcffe libbpf: Poison kernel-only integer types
It's been a recurring issue with types like u32 slipping into libbpf source
code accidentally. This is not detected during builds inside kernel source
tree, but becomes a compilation error in libbpf's Github repo. Libbpf is
supposed to use only __{s,u}{8,16,32,64} typedefs, so poison {s,u}{8,16,32,64}
explicitly in every .c file. Doing that in a bit more centralized way, e.g.,
inside libbpf_internal.h breaks selftests, which are both using kernel u32 and
libbpf_internal.h.

This patch also fixes a new u32 occurence in libbpf.c, added recently.

Andrii Nakryiko 492ab0205f libbpf: Make bpf_map order and indices stable
Currently, libbpf re-sorts bpf_map structs after all the maps are added and
initialized, which might change their relative order and invalidate any
bpf_map pointer or index taken before that. This is inconvenient and
error-prone. For instance, it can cause .kconfig map index to point to a wrong
map.

Furthermore, libbpf itself doesn't rely on any specific ordering of bpf_maps,
so it's just an unnecessary complication right now. This patch drops sorting
of maps and makes their relative positions fixed. If efficient index is ever
needed, it's better to have a separate array of pointers as a search index,
instead of reordering bpf_map struct in-place. This will be less error-prone
and will allow multiple independent orderings, if necessary (e.g., either by
section index or by name).

Martin KaFai Lau 590a008882 bpf: libbpf: Add STRUCT_OPS support
This patch adds BPF STRUCT_OPS support to libbpf.

The only sec_name convention is SEC(".struct_ops") to identify the
struct_ops implemented in BPF,
e.g. To implement a tcp_congestion_ops:

SEC(".struct_ops")
struct tcp_congestion_ops dctcp = {
	.init           = (void *)dctcp_init,  /* <-- a bpf_prog */
	/* ... some more func prts ... */
	.name           = "bpf_dctcp",
};

Each struct_ops is defined as a global variable under SEC(".struct_ops")
as above.  libbpf creates a map for each variable and the variable name
is the map's name.  Multiple struct_ops is supported under
SEC(".struct_ops").

In the bpf_object__open phase, libbpf will look for the SEC(".struct_ops")
section and find out what is the btf-type the struct_ops is
implementing.  Note that the btf-type here is referring to
a type in the bpf_prog.o's btf.  A "struct bpf_map" is added
by bpf_object__add_map() as other maps do.  It will then
collect (through SHT_REL) where are the bpf progs that the
func ptrs are referring to.  No btf_vmlinux is needed in
the open phase.

In the bpf_object__load phase, the map-fields, which depend
on the btf_vmlinux, are initialized (in bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops()).
It will also set the prog->type, prog->attach_btf_id, and
prog->expected_attach_type.  Thus, the prog's properties do
not rely on its section name.
[ Currently, the bpf_prog's btf-type ==> btf_vmlinux's btf-type matching
  process is as simple as: member-name match + btf-kind match + size match.
  If these matching conditions fail, libbpf will reject.
  The current targeting support is "struct tcp_congestion_ops" which
  most of its members are function pointers.
  The member ordering of the bpf_prog's btf-type can be different from
  the btf_vmlinux's btf-type. ]

Then, all obj->maps are created as usual (in bpf_object__create_maps()).

Once the maps are created and prog's properties are all set,
the libbpf will proceed to load all the progs.

bpf_map__attach_struct_ops() is added to register a struct_ops
map to a kernel subsystem.

Andrii Nakryiko 8ab9da573d libbpf: Support CO-RE relocations for LDX/ST/STX instructions
Clang patch [0] enables emitting relocatable generic ALU/ALU64 instructions
(i.e, shifts and arithmetic operations), as well as generic load/store
instructions. The former ones are already supported by libbpf as is. This
patch adds further support for load/store instructions. Relocatable field
offset is encoded in BPF instruction's 16-bit offset section and are adjusted
by libbpf based on target kernel BTF.

These Clang changes and corresponding libbpf changes allow for more succinct
generated BPF code by encoding relocatable field reads as a single
ST/LDX/STX instruction. It also enables relocatable access to BPF context.
Previously, if context struct (e.g., __sk_buff) was accessed with CO-RE
relocations (e.g., due to preserve_access_index attribute), it would be
rejected by BPF verifier due to modified context pointer dereference. With
Clang patch, such context accesses are both relocatable and have a fixed
offset from the point of view of BPF verifier.

Andrii Nakryiko d69587062c libbpf: Add bpf_link__disconnect() API to preserve underlying BPF resource
There are cases in which BPF resource (program, map, etc) has to outlive
userspace program that "installed" it in the system in the first place.
When BPF program is attached, libbpf returns bpf_link object, which
is supposed to be destroyed after no longer necessary through
bpf_link__destroy() API. Currently, bpf_link destruction causes both automatic
detachment and frees up any resources allocated to for bpf_link in-memory
representation. This is inconvenient for the case described above because of
coupling of detachment and resource freeing.

This patch introduces bpf_link__disconnect() API call, which marks bpf_link as
disconnected from its underlying BPF resouces. This means that when bpf_link
is destroyed later, all its memory resources will be freed, but BPF resource
itself won't be detached.

This design allows to follow strict and resource-leak-free design by default,
while giving easy and straightforward way for user code to opt for keeping BPF
resource attached beyond lifetime of a bpf_link. For some BPF programs (i.e.,
FS-based tracepoints, kprobes, raw tracepoint, etc), user has to make sure to
pin BPF program to prevent kernel to automatically detach it on process exit.
This should typically be achived by pinning BPF program (or map in some cases)
in BPF FS.

the 'permission denied' error they get when trying to load their program

Since the error code is UAPI, we can't change that. Instead, this patch
adds a few heuristics in libbpf and outputs an additional hint if they are
met: If an EPERM is returned on map create or program load, and geteuid()
shows we are root, and the current RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is not infinity, we
output a hint about raising 'ulimit -l' as an additional log line.

Andrii Nakryiko 166750bc1d libbpf: Support libbpf-provided extern variables
Add support for extern variables, provided to BPF program by libbpf. Currently
the following extern variables are supported:
  - LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION; version of a kernel in which BPF program is
    executing, follows KERNEL_VERSION() macro convention, can be 4- and 8-byte
    long;
  - CONFIG_xxx values; a set of values of actual kernel config. Tristate,
    boolean, strings, and integer values are supported.

Set of possible values is determined by declared type of extern variable.
Supported types of variables are:
- Tristate values. Are represented as `enum libbpf_tristate`. Accepted values
  are **strictly** 'y', 'n', or 'm', which are represented as TRI_YES, TRI_NO,
  or TRI_MODULE, respectively.
- Boolean values. Are represented as bool (_Bool) types. Accepted values are
  'y' and 'n' only, turning into true/false values, respectively.
- Single-character values. Can be used both as a substritute for
  bool/tristate, or as a small-range integer:
  - 'y'/'n'/'m' are represented as is, as characters 'y', 'n', or 'm';
  - integers in a range [-128, 127] or [0, 255] (depending on signedness of
    char in target architecture) are recognized and represented with
    respective values of char type.
- Strings. String values are declared as fixed-length char arrays. String of
  up to that length will be accepted and put in first N bytes of char array,
  with the rest of bytes zeroed out. If config string value is longer than
  space alloted, it will be truncated and warning message emitted. Char array
  is always zero terminated. String literals in config have to be enclosed in
  double quotes, just like C-style string literals.
- Integers. 8-, 16-, 32-, and 64-bit integers are supported, both signed and
  unsigned variants. Libbpf enforces parsed config value to be in the
  supported range of corresponding integer type. Integers values in config can
  be:
  - decimal integers, with optional + and - signs;
  - hexadecimal integers, prefixed with 0x or 0X;
  - octal integers, starting with 0.

Config file itself is searched in /boot/config-$(uname -r) location with
fallback to /proc/config.gz, unless config path is specified explicitly
through bpf_object_open_opts' kernel_config_path option. Both gzipped and
plain text formats are supported. Libbpf adds explicit dependency on zlib
because of this, but this shouldn't be a problem, given libelf already depends
on zlib.

All detected extern variables, are put into a separate .extern internal map.
It, similarly to .rodata map, is marked as read-only from BPF program side, as
well as is frozen on load. This allows BPF verifier to track extern values as
constants and perform enhanced branch prediction and dead code elimination.
This can be relied upon for doing kernel version/feature detection and using
potentially unsupported field relocations or BPF helpers in a CO-RE-based BPF
program, while still having a single version of BPF program running on old and
new kernels. Selftests are validating this explicitly for unexisting BPF
helper.

Andrii Nakryiko 13acb508ae libbpf: Postpone BTF ID finding for TRACING programs to load phase
Move BTF ID determination for BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACING programs to a load phase.
Performing it at open step is inconvenient, because it prevents BPF skeleton
generation on older host kernel, which doesn't contain BTF_KIND_FUNCs
information in vmlinux BTF. This is a common set up, though, when, e.g.,
selftests are compiled on older host kernel, but the test program itself is
executed in qemu VM with bleeding edge kernel. Having this BTF searching
performed at load time allows to successfully use bpf_object__open() for
codegen and inspection of BPF object file.

Andrii Nakryiko eba9c5f498 libbpf: Refactor global data map initialization
Refactor global data map initialization to use anonymous mmap()-ed memory
instead of malloc()-ed one. This allows to do a transparent re-mmap()-ing of
already existing memory address to point to BPF map's memory after
bpf_object__load() step (done in follow up patch). This choreographed setup
allows to have a nice and unsurprising way to pre-initialize read-only (and
r/w as well) maps by user and after BPF map creation keep working with
mmap()-ed contents of this map. All in a way that doesn't require user code to
update any pointers: the illusion of working with memory contents is preserved
before and after actual BPF map instantiation.

Reorganize bpf_object__open and bpf_object__load steps such that
bpf_object__open doesn't need root access. This was previously done for
feature probing and BTF sanitization. This doesn't have to happen on open,
though, so move all those steps into the load phase.

This is important, because it makes it possible for tools like bpftool, to
just open BPF object file and inspect their contents: programs, maps, BTF,
etc. For such operations it is prohibitive to require root access. On the
other hand, there is a lot of custom libbpf logic in those steps, so its best
avoided for tools to reimplement all that on their own.

Andrii Nakryiko 1f8e2bcb2c libbpf: Refactor relocation handling
Relocation handling code is convoluted and unnecessarily deeply nested. Split
out per-relocation logic into separate function. Also refactor the logic to be
more a sequence of per-relocation type checks and processing steps, making it
simpler to follow control flow. This makes it easier to further extends it to
new kinds of relocations (e.g., support for extern variables).

This patch also makes relocation's section verification more robust.
Previously relocations against not yet supported externs were silently ignored
because of obj->efile.text_shndx was zero, when all BPF programs had custom
section names and there was no .text section. Also, invalid LDIMM64 relocations
against non-map sections were passed through, if they were pointing to a .text
section (or 0, which is invalid section). All these bugs are fixed within this
refactoring and checks are made more appropriate for each type of relocation.

Andrii Nakryiko a0d7da26ce libbpf: Fix call relocation offset calculation bug
When relocating subprogram call, libbpf doesn't take into account
relo->text_off, which comes from symbol's value. This generally works fine for
subprograms implemented as static functions, but breaks for global functions.

Taking a simplified test_pkt_access.c as an example:

__attribute__ ((noinline))
static int test_pkt_access_subprog1(volatile struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
        return skb->len * 2;
}

__attribute__ ((noinline))
static int test_pkt_access_subprog2(int val, volatile struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
        return skb->len + val;
}

SEC("classifier/test_pkt_access")
int test_pkt_access(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
        if (test_pkt_access_subprog1(skb) != skb->len * 2)
                return TC_ACT_SHOT;
        if (test_pkt_access_subprog2(2, skb) != skb->len + 2)
                return TC_ACT_SHOT;
        return TC_ACT_UNSPEC;
}

When compiled, we get two relocations, pointing to '.text' symbol. .text has
st_value set to 0 (it points to the beginning of .text section):

0000000000000008  000000050000000a R_BPF_64_32            0000000000000000 .text

test_pkt_access_subprog1 and test_pkt_access_subprog2 offsets (targets of two
calls) are encoded within call instruction's imm32 part as -1 and 2,
respectively:

Now, if we compile example with global functions, the setup changes.
Relocations are now against specifically test_pkt_access_subprog1 and
test_pkt_access_subprog2 symbols, with test_pkt_access_subprog2 pointing 24
bytes into its respective section (.text), i.e., 3 instructions in:

Thus the right formula to calculate target call offset after relocation should
take into account relocation's target symbol value (offset within section),
call instruction's imm32 offset, and (subtracting, to get relative instruction
offset) instruction index of call instruction itself. All that is shifted by
number of instructions in main program, given all sub-programs are copied over
after main program.

Convert few selftests relying on bpf-to-bpf calls to use global functions
instead of static ones.

Andrii Nakryiko 7fe74b4362 libbpf: Make global data internal arrays mmap()-able, if possible
Add detection of BPF_F_MMAPABLE flag support for arrays and add it as an extra
flag to internal global data maps, if supported by kernel. This allows users
to memory-map global data and use it without BPF map operations, greatly
simplifying user experience.

Toke Høiland-Jørgensen 1a734efe06 libbpf: Add getter for program size
This adds a new getter for the BPF program size (in bytes). This is useful
for a caller that is trying to predict how much memory will be locked by
loading a BPF object into the kernel.

Toke Høiland-Jørgensen 4f33ddb4e3 libbpf: Propagate EPERM to caller on program load
When loading an eBPF program, libbpf overrides the return code for EPERM
errors instead of returning it to the caller. This makes it hard to figure
out what went wrong on load.

In particular, EPERM is returned when the system rlimit is too low to lock
the memory required for the BPF program. Previously, this was somewhat
obscured because the rlimit error would be hit on map creation (which does
return it correctly). However, since maps can now be reused, object load
can proceed all the way to loading programs without hitting the error;
propagating it even in this case makes it possible for the caller to react
appropriately (and, e.g., attempt to raise the rlimit before retrying).
