The sockmap infrastructure is only aware of TCP sockets at the
moment. In the future we plan to add UDP. In both cases CONFIG_NET
should be built-in.

So lets only build sockmap if CONFIG_INET is enabled.

Cgroup v2 lacks the device controller, provided by cgroup v1.
This patch adds a new eBPF program type, which in combination
of previously added ability to attach multiple eBPF programs
to a cgroup, will provide a similar functionality, but with some
additional flexibility.

This patch introduces a BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_DEVICE program type.
A program takes major and minor device numbers, device type
(block/character) and access type (mknod/read/write) as parameters
and returns an integer which defines if the operation should be
allowed or terminated with -EPERM.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<content type='text'>
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 &amp; 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 &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;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.

The 'cpumap' is primarily used as a backend map for XDP BPF helper
call bpf_redirect_map() and XDP_REDIRECT action, like 'devmap'.

This patch implement the main part of the map.  It is not connected to
the XDP redirect system yet, and no SKB allocation are done yet.

The main concern in this patch is to ensure the datapath can run
without any locking.  This adds complexity to the setup and tear-down
procedure, which assumptions are extra carefully documented in the
code comments.

V2:
 - make sure array isn't larger than NR_CPUS
 - make sure CPUs added is a valid possible CPU

V3: fix nitpicks from Jakub Kicinski &lt;kubakici@wp.pl&gt;

V5:
 - Restrict map allocation to root / CAP_SYS_ADMIN
 - WARN_ON_ONCE if queue is not empty on tear-down
 - Return -EPERM on memlock limit instead of -ENOMEM
 - Error code in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() also handle ptr_ring_cleanup()
 - Moved cpu_map_enqueue() to next patch

V6: all notice by Daniel Borkmann
 - Fix err return code in cpu_map_alloc() introduced in V5
 - Move cpu_possible() check after max_entries boundary check
 - Forbid usage initially in check_map_func_compatibility()

V7:
 - Fix alloc error path spotted by Daniel Borkmann
 - Did stress test adding+removing CPUs from the map concurrently
 - Fixed refcnt issue on cpu_map_entry, kthread started too soon
 - Make sure packets are flushed during tear-down, involved use of
   rcu_barrier() and kthread_run only exit after queue is empty
 - Fix alloc error path in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() for ptr_ring

V8:
 - Nitpicking comments and gramma by Edward Cree
 - Fix missing semi-colon introduced in V7 due to rebasing
 - Move struct bpf_cpu_map_entry members cpu+map_id to tracepoint patch

call bpf_redirect_map() and XDP_REDIRECT action, like 'devmap'.

This patch implement the main part of the map.  It is not connected to
the XDP redirect system yet, and no SKB allocation are done yet.

The main concern in this patch is to ensure the datapath can run
without any locking.  This adds complexity to the setup and tear-down
procedure, which assumptions are extra carefully documented in the
code comments.

V2:
 - make sure array isn't larger than NR_CPUS
 - make sure CPUs added is a valid possible CPU

V3: fix nitpicks from Jakub Kicinski &lt;kubakici@wp.pl&gt;

V5:
 - Restrict map allocation to root / CAP_SYS_ADMIN
 - WARN_ON_ONCE if queue is not empty on tear-down
 - Return -EPERM on memlock limit instead of -ENOMEM
 - Error code in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() also handle ptr_ring_cleanup()
 - Moved cpu_map_enqueue() to next patch

V6: all notice by Daniel Borkmann
 - Fix err return code in cpu_map_alloc() introduced in V5
 - Move cpu_possible() check after max_entries boundary check
 - Forbid usage initially in check_map_func_compatibility()

V7:
 - Fix alloc error path spotted by Daniel Borkmann
 - Did stress test adding+removing CPUs from the map concurrently
 - Fixed refcnt issue on cpu_map_entry, kthread started too soon
 - Make sure packets are flushed during tear-down, involved use of
   rcu_barrier() and kthread_run only exit after queue is empty
 - Fix alloc error path in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() for ptr_ring

V8:
 - Nitpicking comments and gramma by Edward Cree
 - Fix missing semi-colon introduced in V7 due to rebasing
 - Move struct bpf_cpu_map_entry members cpu+map_id to tracepoint patch

Recently we added a new map type called dev map used to forward XDP
packets between ports (6093ec2dc313). This patches introduces a
similar notion for sockets.

A sockmap allows users to add participating sockets to a map. When
sockets are added to the map enough context is stored with the
map entry to use the entry with a new helper

  bpf_sk_redirect_map(map, key, flags)

This helper (analogous to bpf_redirect_map in XDP) is given the map
and an entry in the map. When called from a sockmap program, discussed
below, the skb will be sent on the socket using skb_send_sock().

With the above we need a bpf program to call the helper from that will
then implement the send logic. The initial site implemented in this
series is the recv_sock hook. For this to work we implemented a map
attach command to add attributes to a map. In sockmap we add two
programs a parse program and a verdict program. The parse program
uses strparser to build messages and pass them to the verdict program.
The parse programs use the normal strparser semantics. The verdict
program is of type SK_SKB.

The verdict program returns a verdict SK_DROP, or  SK_REDIRECT for
now. Additional actions may be added later. When SK_REDIRECT is
returned, expected when bpf program uses bpf_sk_redirect_map(), the
sockmap logic will consult per cpu variables set by the helper routine
and pull the sock entry out of the sock map. This pattern follows the
existing redirect logic in cls and xdp programs.

This gives the flow,

 recv_sock -&gt; str_parser (parse_prog) -&gt; verdict_prog -&gt; skb_send_sock
                                                     \
                                                      -&gt; kfree_skb

As an example use case a message based load balancer may use specific
logic in the verdict program to select the sock to send on.

Sample programs are provided in future patches that hopefully illustrate
the user interfaces. Also selftests are in follow-on patches.

A class of programs, run from strparser and soon from a new map type
called sock map, are used with skb as the context but on established
sockets. By creating a specific program type for these we can use
bpf helpers that expect full sockets and get the verifier to ensure
these helpers are not used out of context.

The new type is BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_SKB. This patch introduces the
infrastructure and type.

Device map (devmap) is a BPF map, primarily useful for networking
applications, that uses a key to lookup a reference to a netdevice.

The map provides a clean way for BPF programs to build virtual port
to physical port maps. Additionally, it provides a scoping function
for the redirect action itself allowing multiple optimizations. Future
patches will leverage the map to provide batching at the XDP layer.

Another optimization/feature, that is not yet implemented, would be
to support multiple netdevices per key to support efficient multicast
and broadcast support.
