<title>bpf: introduce BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag</title>

<id>7f677633379b4abb3281cdbe7e7006f049305c03</id>
<content type='text'>
If BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag is used in BPF_PROG_ATTACH command
to the given cgroup the descendent cgroup will be able to override
effective bpf program that was inherited from this cgroup.
By default it's not passed, therefore override is disallowed.

Examples:
1.
prog X attached to /A with default
prog Y fails to attach to /A/B and /A/B/C
Everything under /A runs prog X

2.
prog X attached to /A with allow_override.
prog Y fails to attach to /A/B with default (non-override)
prog M attached to /A/B with allow_override.
Everything under /A/B runs prog M only.

3.
prog X attached to /A with allow_override.
prog Y fails to attach to /A with default.
The user has to detach first to switch the mode.

In the future this behavior may be extended with a chain of
non-overridable programs.

Also fix the bug where detach from cgroup where nothing is attached
was not throwing error. Return ENOENT in such case.

Add several testcases and adjust libbpf.

<title>bpf: fix samples xdp_tx_iptunnel and tc_l2_redirect with fake KBUILD_MODNAME</title>

<content type='text'>
Fix build errors for samples/bpf xdp_tx_iptunnel and tc_l2_redirect,
when dynamic debugging is enabled (CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG) by defining a
fake KBUILD_MODNAME.

Just like Daniel Borkmann fixed other samples/bpf in commit
96a8eb1eeed2 ("bpf: fix samples to add fake KBUILD_MODNAME").

Fixes: 12d8bb64e3f6 ("bpf: xdp: Add XDP example for head adjustment")

To avoid the following build failure on Alpine Linux 3.4, that has
clang-3.8 with the bpf target:

    HOSTCC  samples/bpf/sock_example.o
  In file included from /usr/include/net/ethernet.h:10:0,
                   from /git/linux/samples/bpf/sock_example.h:7,
                   from /git/linux/samples/bpf/sock_example.c:30:
  /usr/include/netinet/if_ether.h:96:8: error: redefinition of 'struct

   struct ethhdr {

  In file included from /git/linux/samples/bpf/sock_example.c:26:0:

  /git/linux/Makefile:1658: recipe for target 'samples/bpf/' failed

So include net/if_ether.h for the needs of sock_example.h, using the
same include that sock_example.c uses.

This function was declared in libbpf.c and was the only remaining

This declaration was made in samples/bpf/libbpf.c for convenience, but
there's already one in tools/perf/perf-sys.h. Reuse that one.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  $ make -j4 O=../build/v4.9.0-rc8+ samples/bpf/

Also tested the offwaketime resulting from the rebuild, seems to work as
before.

Only one of the examples declare the bpf_insn bpf proggie as a const:

  $ grep 'struct bpf_insn [a-z]' samples/bpf/*.c
  samples/bpf/fds_example.c:	static const struct bpf_insn insns[] = {
  samples/bpf/sock_example.c:	struct bpf_insn prog[] = {
  samples/bpf/test_cgrp2_attach2.c:	struct bpf_insn prog[] = {
  samples/bpf/test_cgrp2_attach.c:	struct bpf_insn prog[] = {
  samples/bpf/test_cgrp2_sock.c:	struct bpf_insn prog[] = {
  $

Which causes this warning:

  [root@f5065a7d6272 linux]# make -j4 O=/tmp/build/linux samples/bpf/
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
     HOSTCC  samples/bpf/fds_example.o
  /git/linux/samples/bpf/fds_example.c: In function 'bpf_prog_create':
  /git/linux/samples/bpf/fds_example.c:63:6: warning: passing argument 2 of 'bpf_load_program' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
        insns, insns_cnt, "GPL", 0,
        ^~~~~
  In file included from /git/linux/samples/bpf/libbpf.h:5:0,
                   from /git/linux/samples/bpf/bpf_load.h:4,
                   from /git/linux/samples/bpf/fds_example.c:15:
  /git/linux/tools/lib/bpf/bpf.h:31:5: note: expected 'struct bpf_insn *' but argument is of type 'const struct bpf_insn *'
   int bpf_load_program(enum bpf_prog_type type, struct bpf_insn *insns,
       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    HOSTCC  samples/bpf/sockex1_user.o

So just ditch that 'const' to reduce build noise, leaving changing the
bpf_load_program() bpf_insn parameter to const to a later patch, if deemed
adequate.

Commit d8c5b17f2bc0 ("samples: bpf: add userspace example for attaching
eBPF programs to cgroups") added these functions to samples/libbpf, but
during this merge all of the samples libbpf functionality is shifting to
tools/lib/bpf. Shift these functions there.

Committer notes:

Use bzero + attr.FIELD = value instead of 'attr = { .FIELD = value, just
like the other wrapper calls to sys_bpf with bpf_attr to make this build
in older toolchais, such as the ones in CentOS 5 and 6.
