 And we currently don't have an attach type for NETLINK BPF link.
 Thankfully it's not too late to add it. I see that link_create() in
 kernel/bpf/syscall.c just bypasses attach_type check. We shouldn't
 have done that. Instead we need to add BPF_NETLINK attach type to enum
 bpf_attach_type. And wire all that properly throughout the kernel and
 libbpf itself.

This adds BPF_NETFILTER and uses it.  This breaks uabi but this
wasn't in any non-rc release yet, so it should be fine.

v2: check link_attack prog type in link_create too

<title>bpf: Add table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper</title>

Add ability to specify routing table ID to the `bpf_fib_lookup` BPF
helper.

A new field `tbid` is added to `struct bpf_fib_lookup` used as
parameters to the `bpf_fib_lookup` BPF helper.

When the helper is called with the `BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT` and
`BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_TBID` flags the `tbid` field in `struct bpf_fib_lookup`
will be used as the table ID for the fib lookup.

If the `tbid` does not exist the fib lookup will fail with
`BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NOT_FWDED`.

The `tbid` field becomes a union over the vlan related output fields
in `struct bpf_fib_lookup` and will be zeroed immediately after usage.

This functionality is useful in containerized environments.

For instance, if a CNI wants to dictate the next-hop for traffic leaving
a container it can create a container-specific routing table and perform
a fib lookup against this table in a "host-net-namespace-side" TC program.

This functionality also allows `ip rule` like functionality at the TC
layer, allowing an eBPF program to pick a routing table based on some
aspect of the sk_buff.

As a concrete use case, this feature will be used in Cilium's SRv6 L3VPN
datapath.

When egress traffic leaves a Pod an eBPF program attached by Cilium will
determine which VRF the egress traffic should target, and then perform a
FIB lookup in a specific table representing this VRF's FIB.

<title>bpf: Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands</title>

Current UAPI of BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands of bpf() syscall
forces users to specify pinning location as a string-based absolute or
relative (to current working directory) path. This has various
implications related to security (e.g., symlink-based attacks), forces
BPF FS to be exposed in the file system, which can cause races with
other applications.

One of the feedbacks we got from folks working with containers heavily
was that inability to use purely FD-based location specification was an
unfortunate limitation and hindrance for BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET
commands. This patch closes this oversight, adding path_fd field to
BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET UAPI, following conventions established by
*at() syscalls for dirfd + pathname combinations.

This now allows interesting possibilities like working with detached BPF
FS mount (e.g., to perform multiple pinnings without running a risk of
someone interfering with them), and generally making pinning/getting
more secure and not prone to any races and/or security attacks.

This is demonstrated by a selftest added in subsequent patch that takes
advantage of new mount APIs (fsopen, fsconfig, fsmount) to demonstrate
creating detached BPF FS mount, pinning, and then getting BPF map out of
it, all while never exposing this private instance of BPF FS to outside
worlds.

<id>84601d6ee68ae820dec97450934797046d62db4b</id>
<content type='text'>
Add bpf_link support skeleton.  To keep this reviewable, no bpf program
can be invoked yet, if a program is attached only a c-stub is called and
not the actual bpf program.

Defaults to 'y' if both netfilter and bpf syscall are enabled in kconfig.

Uapi example usage:
	union bpf_attr attr = { };

	attr.link_create.prog_fd = progfd;
	attr.link_create.attach_type = 0; /* unused */
	attr.link_create.netfilter.pf = PF_INET;
	attr.link_create.netfilter.hooknum = NF_INET_LOCAL_IN;
	attr.link_create.netfilter.priority = -128;

	err = bpf(BPF_LINK_CREATE, &amp;attr, sizeof(attr));

... this would attach progfd to ipv4:input hook.

Such hook gets removed automatically if the calling program exits.

BPF_NETFILTER program invocation is added in followup change.

NF_HOOK_OP_BPF enum will eventually be read from nfnetlink_hook, it
allows to tell userspace which program is attached at the given hook
when user runs 'nft hook list' command rather than just the priority
and not-very-helpful 'this hook runs a bpf prog but I can't tell which
one'.

Will also be used to disallow registration of two bpf programs with
same priority in a followup patch.

v4: arm32 cmpxchg only supports 32bit operand
    s/prio/priority/
v3: restrict prog attachment to ip/ip6 for now, lets lift restrictions if
    more use cases pop up (arptables, ebtables, netdev ingress/egress etc).

Will also be used to disallow registration of two bpf programs with
same priority in a followup patch.

v4: arm32 cmpxchg only supports 32bit operand
    s/prio/priority/
v3: restrict prog attachment to ip/ip6 for now, lets lift restrictions if
    more use cases pop up (arptables, ebtables, netdev ingress/egress etc).

<title>bpf: Introduce opaque bpf_refcount struct and add btf_record plumbing</title>

<id>d54730b50bae1f3119bd686d551d66f0fcc387ca</id>
<content type='text'>
A 'struct bpf_refcount' is added to the set of opaque uapi/bpf.h types
meant for use in BPF programs. Similarly to other opaque types like
bpf_spin_lock and bpf_rbtree_node, the verifier needs to know where in
user-defined struct types a bpf_refcount can be located, so necessary
btf_record plumbing is added to enable this. bpf_refcount is sized to
hold a refcount_t.

Similarly to bpf_spin_lock, the offset of a bpf_refcount is cached in
btf_record as refcount_off in addition to being in the field array.
Caching refcount_off makes sense for this field because further patches
in the series will modify functions that take local kptrs (e.g.
bpf_obj_drop) to change their behavior if the type they're operating on
is refcounted. So enabling fast "is this type refcounted?" checks is
desirable.

No such verifier behavior changes are introduced in this patch, just
logic to recognize 'struct bpf_refcount' in btf_record.

<title>bpf: Add log_true_size output field to return necessary log buffer size</title>

Add output-only log_true_size and btf_log_true_size field to
BPF_PROG_LOAD and BPF_BTF_LOAD commands, respectively. It will return
the size of log buffer necessary to fit in all the log contents at
specified log_level. This is very useful for BPF loader libraries like
libbpf to be able to size log buffer correctly, but could be used by
users directly, if necessary, as well.

This patch plumbs all this through the code, taking into account actual
bpf_attr size provided by user to determine if these new fields are
expected by users. And if they are, set them from kernel on return.

We refactory btf_parse() function to accommodate this, moving attr and
uattr handling inside it. The rest is very straightforward code, which
is split from the logging accounting changes in the previous patch to
make it simpler to review logic vs UAPI changes.

By improving the BPF_LINK_UPDATE command of bpf(), it should allow you
to conveniently switch between different struct_ops on a single
bpf_link. This would enable smoother transitions from one struct_ops
to another.

The struct_ops maps passing along with BPF_LINK_UPDATE should have the
BPF_F_LINK flag.

<title>bpf: Create links for BPF struct_ops maps.</title>

Make bpf_link support struct_ops.  Previously, struct_ops were always
used alone without any associated links. Upon updating its value, a
struct_ops would be activated automatically. Yet other BPF program
types required to make a bpf_link with their instances before they
could become active. Now, however, you can create an inactive
struct_ops, and create a link to activate it later.

With bpf_links, struct_ops has a behavior similar to other BPF program
types. You can pin/unpin them from their links and the struct_ops will
be deactivated when its link is removed while previously need someone
to delete the value for it to be deactivated.

bpf_links are responsible for registering their associated
struct_ops. You can only use a struct_ops that has the BPF_F_LINK flag
set to create a bpf_link, while a structs without this flag behaves in
the same manner as before and is registered upon updating its value.

The BPF_LINK_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS serves a dual purpose. Not only is it
used to craft the links for BPF struct_ops programs, but also to
create links for BPF struct_ops them-self.  Since the links of BPF
struct_ops programs are only used to create trampolines internally,
they are never seen in other contexts. Thus, they can be reused for
struct_ops themself.

To maintain a reference to the map supporting this link, we add
bpf_struct_ops_link as an additional type. The pointer of the map is
RCU and won't be necessary until later in the patchset.
