Add the compat handling to sock_common_{get,set}sockopt instead,
keyed of in_compat_syscall().  This allow to remove the now unused
-&gt;compat_{get,set}sockopt methods from struct proto_ops.

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.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2020-05-23

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

We've added 50 non-merge commits during the last 8 day(s) which contain
a total of 109 files changed, 2776 insertions(+), 2887 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Add a new AF_XDP buffer allocation API to the core in order to help
   lowering the bar for drivers adopting AF_XDP support. i40e, ice, ixgbe
   as well as mlx5 have been moved over to the new API and also gained a
   small improvement in performance, from Björn Töpel and Magnus Karlsson.

2) Add getpeername()/getsockname() attach types for BPF sock_addr programs
   in order to allow for e.g. reverse translation of load-balancer backend
   to service address/port tuple from a connected peer, from Daniel Borkmann.

3) Improve the BPF verifier is_branch_taken() logic to evaluate pointers
   being non-NULL, e.g. if after an initial test another non-NULL test on
   that pointer follows in a given path, then it can be pruned right away,
   from John Fastabend.

4) Larger rework of BPF sockmap selftests to make output easier to understand
   and to reduce overall runtime as well as adding new BPF kTLS selftests
   that run in combination with sockmap, also from John Fastabend.

5) Batch of misc updates to BPF selftests including fixing up test_align
   to match verifier output again and moving it under test_progs, allowing
   bpf_iter selftest to compile on machines with older vmlinux.h, and
   updating config options for lirc and v6 segment routing helpers, from
   Stanislav Fomichev, Andrii Nakryiko and Alan Maguire.

6) Conversion of BPF tracing samples outdated internal BPF loader to use
   libbpf API instead, from Daniel T. Lee.

7) Follow-up to BPF kernel test infrastructure in order to fix a flake in
   the XDP selftests, from Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

8) Minor improvements to libbpf's internal hashmap implementation, from
   Ian Rogers.

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.

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.

<title>ipv4,appletalk: move SIOCADDRT and SIOCDELRT handling into -&gt;compat_ioctl</title>

To prepare removing the global routing_ioctl hack start lifting the code
into the ipv4 and appletalk -&gt;compat_ioctl handlers.  Unlike the existing
handler we don't bother copying in the name - there are no compat issues for
char arrays.

<title>bpf: Allow any port in bpf_bind helper</title>

We want to have a tighter control on what ports we bind to in
the BPF_CGROUP_INET{4,6}_CONNECT hooks even if it means
connect() becomes slightly more expensive. The expensive part
comes from the fact that we now need to call inet_csk_get_port()
that verifies that the port is not used and allocates an entry
in the hash table for it.

Since we can't rely on "snum || !bind_address_no_port" to prevent
us from calling POST_BIND hook anymore, let's add another bind flag
to indicate that the call site is BPF program.

v5:
* fix wrong AF_INET (should be AF_INET6) in the bpf program for v6

v3:
* More bpf_bind documentation refinements (Martin KaFai Lau)
* Add UDP tests as well (Martin KaFai Lau)
* Don't start the thread, just do socket+bind+listen (Martin KaFai Lau)

v2:
* Update documentation (Andrey Ignatov)
* Pass BIND_FORCE_ADDRESS_NO_PORT conditionally (Andrey Ignatov)

The intent is to add an additional bind parameter in the next commit.
Instead of adding another argument, let's convert all existing
flag arguments into an extendable bit field.

No functional changes.

<title>net: ipv4: add sysctl for nexthop api compatibility mode</title>

<content type='text'>
Current route nexthop API maintains user space compatibility
with old route API by default. Dumps and netlink notifications
support both new and old API format. In systems which have
moved to the new API, this compatibility mode cancels some
of the performance benefits provided by the new nexthop API.

This patch adds new sysctl nexthop_compat_mode which is on
by default but provides the ability to turn off compatibility
mode allowing systems to run entirely with the new routing
API. Old route API behaviour and support is not modified by this
sysctl.

Uses a single sysctl to cover both ipv4 and ipv6 following
other sysctls. Covers dumps and delete notifications as
suggested by David Ahern.
