This change comes in several parts:

One, the restriction that the CGROUP_STORAGE map can only be used
by one program is removed. This results in the removal of the field
'aux' in struct bpf_cgroup_storage_map, and removal of relevant
code associated with the field, and removal of now-noop functions
bpf_free_cgroup_storage and bpf_cgroup_storage_release.

Second, we permit a key of type u64 as the key to the map.
Providing such a key type indicates that the map should ignore
attach type when comparing map keys. However, for simplicity newly
linked storage will still have the attach type at link time in
its key struct. cgroup_storage_check_btf is adapted to accept
u64 as the type of the key.

Third, because the storages are now shared, the storages cannot
be unconditionally freed on program detach. There could be two
ways to solve this issue:
* A. Reference count the usage of the storages, and free when the
     last program is detached.
* B. Free only when the storage is impossible to be referred to
     again, i.e. when either the cgroup_bpf it is attached to, or
     the map itself, is freed.
Option A has the side effect that, when the user detach and
reattach a program, whether the program gets a fresh storage
depends on whether there is another program attached using that
storage. This could trigger races if the user is multi-threaded,
and since nondeterminism in data races is evil, go with option B.

The both the map and the cgroup_bpf now tracks their associated
storages, and the storage unlink and free are removed from
cgroup_bpf_detach and added to cgroup_bpf_release and
cgroup_storage_map_free. The latter also new holds the cgroup_mutex
to prevent any races with the former.

Fourth, on attach, we reuse the old storage if the key already
exists in the map, via cgroup_storage_lookup. If the storage
does not exist yet, we create a new one, and publish it at the
last step in the attach process. This does not create a race
condition because for the whole attach the cgroup_mutex is held.
We keep track of an array of new storages that was allocated
and if the process fails only the new storages would get freed.

Sometimes it's handy to know when the socket gets freed. In
particular, we'd like to try to use a smarter allocation of
ports for bpf_bind and explore the possibility of limiting
the number of SOCK_DGRAM sockets the process can have.

Implement BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_RELEASE hook that triggers on
inet socket release. It triggers only for userspace sockets
(not in-kernel ones) and therefore has the same semantics as
the existing BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE.

<title>bpf: Add get{peer, sock}name attach types for sock_addr</title>

As stated in 983695fa6765 ("bpf: fix unconnected udp hooks"), the objective
for the existing cgroup connect/sendmsg/recvmsg/bind BPF hooks is to be
transparent to applications. In Cilium we make use of these hooks [0] in
order to enable E-W load balancing for existing Kubernetes service types
for all Cilium managed nodes in the cluster. Those backends can be local
or remote. The main advantage of this approach is that it operates as close
as possible to the socket, and therefore allows to avoid packet-based NAT
given in connect/sendmsg/recvmsg hooks we only need to xlate sock addresses.

This also allows to expose NodePort services on loopback addresses in the
host namespace, for example. As another advantage, this also efficiently
blocks bind requests for applications in the host namespace for exposed
ports. However, one missing item is that we also need to perform reverse
xlation for inet{,6}_getname() hooks such that we can return the service
IP/port tuple back to the application instead of the remote peer address.

The vast majority of applications does not bother about getpeername(), but
in a few occasions we've seen breakage when validating the peer's address
since it returns unexpectedly the backend tuple instead of the service one.
Therefore, this trivial patch allows to customise and adds a getpeername()
as well as getsockname() BPF cgroup hook for both IPv4 and IPv6 in order
to address this situation.

Simple example:

  # ./cilium/cilium service list
  ID   Frontend     Service Type   Backend
  1    1.2.3.4:80   ClusterIP      1 =&gt; 10.0.0.10:80

Before; curl's verbose output example, no getpeername() reverse xlation:

  # curl --verbose 1.2.3.4
  * Rebuilt URL to: 1.2.3.4/
  *   Trying 1.2.3.4...
  * TCP_NODELAY set
  * Connected to 1.2.3.4 (10.0.0.10) port 80 (#0)
  &gt; GET / HTTP/1.1
  &gt; Host: 1.2.3.4
  &gt; User-Agent: curl/7.58.0
  &gt; Accept: */*
  [...]

After; with getpeername() reverse xlation:

  # curl --verbose 1.2.3.4
  * Rebuilt URL to: 1.2.3.4/
  *   Trying 1.2.3.4...
  * TCP_NODELAY set
  * Connected to 1.2.3.4 (1.2.3.4) port 80 (#0)
  &gt; GET / HTTP/1.1
  &gt;  Host: 1.2.3.4
  &gt; User-Agent: curl/7.58.0
  &gt; Accept: */*
  [...]

Originally, I had both under a BPF_CGROUP_INET{4,6}_GETNAME type and exposed
peer to the context similar as in inet{,6}_getname() fashion, but API-wise
this is suboptimal as it always enforces programs having to test for ctx-&gt;peer
which can easily be missed, hence BPF_CGROUP_INET{4,6}_GET{PEER,SOCK}NAME split.
Similarly, the checked return code is on tnum_range(1, 1), but if a use case
comes up in future, it can easily be changed to return an error code instead.
Helper and ctx member access is the same as with connect/sendmsg/etc hooks.

Add ability to fetch bpf_link details through BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD command.
Also enhance show_fdinfo to potentially include bpf_link type-specific
information (similarly to obj_info).

Also introduce enum bpf_link_type stored in bpf_link itself and expose it in
UAPI. bpf_link_tracing also now will store and return bpf_attach_type.

Make bpf_link update support more generic by making it into another
bpf_link_ops methods. This allows generic syscall handling code to be agnostic
to various conditionally compiled features (e.g., the case of
CONFIG_CGROUP_BPF). This also allows to keep link type-specific code to remain
static within respective code base. Refactor existing bpf_cgroup_link code and
take advantage of this.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from  userspace in common code.  This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.

As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

<title>bpf: Implement bpf_prog replacement for an active bpf_cgroup_link</title>

<id>0c991ebc8c69d29b7fc44db17075c5aa5253e2ab</id>
<content type='text'>
Add new operation (LINK_UPDATE), which allows to replace active bpf_prog from
under given bpf_link. Currently this is only supported for bpf_cgroup_link,
but will be extended to other kinds of bpf_links in follow-up patches.

For bpf_cgroup_link, implemented functionality matches existing semantics for
direct bpf_prog attachment (including BPF_F_REPLACE flag). User can either
unconditionally set new bpf_prog regardless of which bpf_prog is currently
active under given bpf_link, or, optionally, can specify expected active
bpf_prog. If active bpf_prog doesn't match expected one, no changes are
performed, old bpf_link stays intact and attached, operation returns
a failure.

cgroup_bpf_replace() operation is resolving race between auto-detachment and
bpf_prog update in the same fashion as it's done for bpf_link detachment,
except in this case update has no way of succeeding because of target cgroup
marked as dying. So in this case error is returned.

<title>bpf: Implement bpf_link-based cgroup BPF program attachment</title>

<id>af6eea57437a830293eab56246b6025cc7d46ee7</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement new sub-command to attach cgroup BPF programs and return FD-based
bpf_link back on success. bpf_link, once attached to cgroup, cannot be
replaced, except by owner having its FD. Cgroup bpf_link supports only
BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI semantics. Both link-based and prog-based BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI
attachments can be freely intermixed.

To prevent bpf_cgroup_link from keeping cgroup alive past the point when no
BPF program can be executed, implement auto-detachment of link. When
cgroup_bpf_release() is called, all attached bpf_links are forced to release
cgroup refcounts, but they leave bpf_link otherwise active and allocated, as
well as still owning underlying bpf_prog. This is because user-space might
still have FDs open and active, so bpf_link as a user-referenced object can't
be freed yet. Once last active FD is closed, bpf_link will be freed and
underlying bpf_prog refcount will be dropped. But cgroup refcount won't be
touched, because cgroup is released already.

The inherent race between bpf_cgroup_link release (from closing last FD) and
cgroup_bpf_release() is resolved by both operations taking cgroup_mutex. So
the only additional check required is when bpf_cgroup_link attempts to detach
itself from cgroup. At that time we need to check whether there is still
cgroup associated with that link. And if not, exit with success, because
bpf_cgroup_link was already successfully detached.

<title>bpf: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member</title>

<id>d7f10df86202273155a9d8f8553bc2ad28e0dd46</id>
<content type='text'>
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2019-12-27

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

We've added 127 non-merge commits during the last 17 day(s) which contain
a total of 110 files changed, 6901 insertions(+), 2721 deletions(-).

There are three merge conflicts. Conflicts and resolution looks as follows:

1) Merge conflict in net/bpf/test_run.c:

There was a tree-wide cleanup c593642c8be0 ("treewide: Use sizeof_field() macro")
which gets in the way with b590cb5f802d ("bpf: Switch to offsetofend in
BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN"):

  &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; HEAD
          if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetof(struct __sk_buff, priority) +
                             sizeof_field(struct __sk_buff, priority),
  =======
          if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetofend(struct __sk_buff, priority),
  &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 7c8dce4b166113743adad131b5a24c4acc12f92c

There are a few occasions that look similar to this. Always take the chunk with
offsetofend(). Note that there is one where the fields differ in here:

  &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; HEAD
          if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetof(struct __sk_buff, tstamp) +
                             sizeof_field(struct __sk_buff, tstamp),
  =======
          if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetofend(struct __sk_buff, gso_segs),
  &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 7c8dce4b166113743adad131b5a24c4acc12f92c

Just take the one with offsetofend() /and/ gso_segs. Latter is correct due to
850a88cc4096 ("bpf: Expose __sk_buff wire_len/gso_segs to BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN").

2) Merge conflict in arch/riscv/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:

(I'm keeping Bjorn in Cc here for a double-check in case I got it wrong.)

  &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; HEAD
          if (is_13b_check(off, insn))
                  return -1;
          emit(rv_blt(tcc, RV_REG_ZERO, off &gt;&gt; 1), ctx);
  =======
          emit_branch(BPF_JSLT, RV_REG_T1, RV_REG_ZERO, off, ctx);
  &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 7c8dce4b166113743adad131b5a24c4acc12f92c

Result should look like:

          emit_branch(BPF_JSLT, tcc, RV_REG_ZERO, off, ctx);

3) Merge conflict in arch/riscv/include/asm/pgtable.h:

  &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; HEAD
  =======
  #define VMALLOC_SIZE     (KERN_VIRT_SIZE &gt;&gt; 1)
  #define VMALLOC_END      (PAGE_OFFSET - 1)
  #define VMALLOC_START    (PAGE_OFFSET - VMALLOC_SIZE)

  #define BPF_JIT_REGION_SIZE     (SZ_128M)
  #define BPF_JIT_REGION_START    (PAGE_OFFSET - BPF_JIT_REGION_SIZE)
  #define BPF_JIT_REGION_END      (VMALLOC_END)

  /*
   * Roughly size the vmemmap space to be large enough to fit enough
   * struct pages to map half the virtual address space. Then
   * position vmemmap directly below the VMALLOC region.
   */
  #define VMEMMAP_SHIFT \
          (CONFIG_VA_BITS - PAGE_SHIFT - 1 + STRUCT_PAGE_MAX_SHIFT)
  #define VMEMMAP_SIZE    BIT(VMEMMAP_SHIFT)
  #define VMEMMAP_END     (VMALLOC_START - 1)
  #define VMEMMAP_START   (VMALLOC_START - VMEMMAP_SIZE)

  #define vmemmap         ((struct page *)VMEMMAP_START)

  &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 7c8dce4b166113743adad131b5a24c4acc12f92c

Only take the BPF_* defines from there and move them higher up in the
same file. Remove the rest from the chunk. The VMALLOC_* etc defines
got moved via 01f52e16b868 ("riscv: define vmemmap before pfn_to_page
calls"). Result:

  [...]
  #define __S101  PAGE_READ_EXEC
  #define __S110  PAGE_SHARED_EXEC
  #define __S111  PAGE_SHARED_EXEC

  #define VMALLOC_SIZE     (KERN_VIRT_SIZE &gt;&gt; 1)
  #define VMALLOC_END      (PAGE_OFFSET - 1)
  #define VMALLOC_START    (PAGE_OFFSET - VMALLOC_SIZE)

  #define BPF_JIT_REGION_SIZE     (SZ_128M)
  #define BPF_JIT_REGION_START    (PAGE_OFFSET - BPF_JIT_REGION_SIZE)
  #define BPF_JIT_REGION_END      (VMALLOC_END)

  /*
   * Roughly size the vmemmap space to be large enough to fit enough
   * struct pages to map half the virtual address space. Then
   * position vmemmap directly below the VMALLOC region.
   */
  #define VMEMMAP_SHIFT \
          (CONFIG_VA_BITS - PAGE_SHIFT - 1 + STRUCT_PAGE_MAX_SHIFT)
  #define VMEMMAP_SIZE    BIT(VMEMMAP_SHIFT)
  #define VMEMMAP_END     (VMALLOC_START - 1)
  #define VMEMMAP_START   (VMALLOC_START - VMEMMAP_SIZE)

  [...]

Let me know if there are any other issues.

Anyway, the main changes are:

1) Extend bpftool to produce a struct (aka "skeleton") tailored and specific
   to a provided BPF object file. This provides an alternative, simplified API
   compared to standard libbpf interaction. Also, add libbpf extern variable
   resolution for .kconfig section to import Kconfig data, from Andrii Nakryiko.

2) Add BPF dispatcher for XDP which is a mechanism to avoid indirect calls by
   generating a branch funnel as discussed back in bpfconf'19 at LSF/MM. Also,
   add various BPF riscv JIT improvements, from Björn Töpel.

3) Extend bpftool to allow matching BPF programs and maps by name,
   from Paul Chaignon.

4) Support for replacing cgroup BPF programs attached with BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI
   flag for allowing updates without service interruption, from Andrey Ignatov.

5) Cleanup and simplification of ring access functions for AF_XDP with a
   bonus of 0-5% performance improvement, from Magnus Karlsson.

6) Enable BPF JITs for x86-64 and arm64 by default. Also, final version of
   audit support for BPF, from Daniel Borkmann and latter with Jiri Olsa.

7) Move and extend test_select_reuseport into BPF program tests under
   BPF selftests, from Jakub Sitnicki.

8) Various BPF sample improvements for xdpsock for customizing parameters
   to set up and benchmark AF_XDP, from Jay Jayatheerthan.

9) Improve libbpf to provide a ulimit hint on permission denied errors.
   Also change XDP sample programs to attach in driver mode by default,
   from Toke Høiland-Jørgensen.

10) Extend BPF test infrastructure to allow changing skb mark from tc BPF
    programs, from Nikita V. Shirokov.

11) Optimize prologue code sequence in BPF arm32 JIT, from Russell King.

12) Fix xdp_redirect_cpu BPF sample to manually attach to tracepoints after
    libbpf conversion, from Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

13) Minor misc improvements from various others.
