[ Upstream commit 6f670d06e47c774bc065aaa84a527a4838f34bd8 ]

Clang doesn't have 'stringop-truncation' group like GCC does, and
complains about it when building samples which use xdp_sample_user
infra:

 samples/bpf/xdp_sample_user.h:48:32: warning: unknown warning group '-Wstringop-truncation', ignored [-Wunknown-warning-option]
 #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wstringop-truncation"
                                ^
[ repeat ]

Those are harmless, but avoidable when guarding it with ifdef.
I could guard push/pop as well, but this would require one more
ifdef cruft around a single line which I don't think is reasonable.

[ Upstream commit e64fbcaa7a666f16329b1c67af15ea501bc84586 ]

Clang (13) doesn't get the jokes about specifying libraries to link in
cclags of individual .o objects:

[ more ]

Specify '-lm' as ldflags for all xdp_sample_user.o users in the main
Makefile and remove it from ccflags of ^ in Makefile.target -- just
like it's done for all other samples. This works with all compilers.

[ Upstream commit 527024f7aeb683ce7ef49b07ef7ce9ecf015288d ]

Remove xdp_samples_user.o rule redefinition which generates Makefile
warning and instead override TPROGS_CFLAGS. This seems to work fine when
building inside selftests/bpf.

That was one big head-scratcher before I found that generic
Makefile.target hid this surprising specialization for for xdp_samples_user.o.

Main change is to use actual locally installed libbpf headers.

Also drop printk macro re-definition (not even used!).

<title>samples/bpf: Install libbpf headers when building</title>

[ Upstream commit 3f7a3318a7c60947e27be372950840a5eab976d0 ]

API headers from libbpf should not be accessed directly from the source
directory. Instead, they should be exported with "make install_headers".
Make sure that samples/bpf/Makefile installs the headers properly when
building.

The object compiled from and exported by libbpf are now placed into a
subdirectory of sample/bpf/ instead of remaining in tools/lib/bpf/. We
attempt to remove this directory on "make clean". However, the "clean"
target re-enters the samples/bpf/ directory from the root of the
repository ("$(MAKE) -C ../../ M=$(CURDIR) clean"), in such a way that
$(srctree) and $(src) are not defined, making it impossible to use
$(LIBBPF_OUTPUT) and $(LIBBPF_DESTDIR) in the recipe. So we only attempt
to clean $(CURDIR)/libbpf, which is the default value.

Add a dependency on libbpf's headers for the $(TRACE_HELPERS).

We also change the output directory for bpftool, to place the generated
objects under samples/bpf/bpftool/ instead of building in bpftool's
directory directly. Doing so, we make sure bpftool reuses the libbpf
library previously compiled and installed.

commit 0daf5cb217a9ca8ae91b8f966ddae322699fb71d upstream.

There's another compilation fail (first here [1]) reported by kernel
test robot for W=1 clang build:

  &gt;&gt; samples/ftrace/ftrace-direct-multi-modify.c:7:6: warning: no previous
  prototype for function 'my_direct_func1' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
     void my_direct_func1(unsigned long ip)

Direct functions in ftrace direct sample modules need to have prototypes
defined. They are already global in order to be visible for the inline
assembly, so there's no problem.

The kernel test robot reported just error for ftrace-direct-multi-modify,
but I got same errors also for the rest of the modules touched by this patch.

tried to fix a bug where sizeof was incorrectly applied to a pointer instead
of the array string was being copied to, to find the destination buffer size,
but ended up using strlen, which is still incorrect. However, on closer look
ifname_buf has no other use, hence directly use optarg.

[ Upstream commit dc14ca4644f48b1cfa93631e35c28bdc011ad109 ]

sample_summary_print() uses accumulated period to calculate and display
per-sec averages. This period gets incremented by sampling interval each
time a new sample is formed, and thus equals to the number of samples
collected multiplied by this interval.

However, the totals are being calculated differently, they receive current
sample statistics already divided by the interval gotten as a difference
between sample timestamps for better precision -- in other words, they are
being incremented by the per-sec values each sample.

This leads to the excessive division of summary per-secs when interval != 1
sec. It is obvious pps couldn't become two times lower just from picking a
different sampling interval value:

This can be easily fixed by treating the divisor not as a period, but rather
as a total number of samples, and thus incrementing it by 1 instead of
interval. As a nice side effect, we can now remove so-named argument from a
couple of functions. Let us also create an "alias" for sample_output::rx_cnt::pps
named 'num' using a union since this field is used to store this number (period
previously) as well, and the resulting counter-intuitive code might've been a
reason for this bug.

[ Upstream commit dc14ca4644f48b1cfa93631e35c28bdc011ad109 ]

sample_summary_print() uses accumulated period to calculate and display
per-sec averages. This period gets incremented by sampling interval each
time a new sample is formed, and thus equals to the number of samples
collected multiplied by this interval.

However, the totals are being calculated differently, they receive current
sample statistics already divided by the interval gotten as a difference
between sample timestamps for better precision -- in other words, they are
being incremented by the per-sec values each sample.

This leads to the excessive division of summary per-secs when interval != 1
sec. It is obvious pps couldn't become two times lower just from picking a
different sampling interval value:

  $ samples/bpf/xdp_redirect_cpu -p xdp_prognum_n1_inverse_qnum -c all
    -s -d 6 -i 1
  &lt; snip &gt;
    Packets received    : 2,197,230,321

[ Upstream commit f76fbbbb5061fe14824ba5807c44bd7400a6b4e1 ]

Use the actual return value instead of always -1 if register_kretprobe()
failed.

E.g. without this patch:

 # insmod samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko func=no_such_func
 insmod: ERROR: could not insert module samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko: Operation not permitted

With this patch:

 # insmod samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko func=no_such_func
 insmod: ERROR: could not insert module samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko: Unknown symbol in module

<title>samples/bpf: Relicense bpf_insn.h as GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause</title>

libbpf and bpftool have been dual-licensed to facilitate inclusion in software
that is not compatible with GPL2-only (ie: Apache2), but the samples are still
GPL2-only.

Given these files are samples, they get naturally copied around. For example,
it is the case for samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h which was copied into the systemd
tree: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/src/shared/linux/bpf_insn.h

Some more context on systemd's needs specifically:

  Most of systemd is (L)GPL2-or-later, which means there is no perceived
  incompatibility with Apache2 software and can thus be linked with
  OpenSSL 3.0. But given this GPL2-only header is included this is currently
  not possible. Dual-licensing this header solves this problem for us as we
  are scoping a move to OpenSSL 3.0, see:

  https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2021-September/046882.html

Dual-license this header as GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause to follow the same
licensing used by libbpf and bpftool:

  1bc38b8ff6cc ("libbpf: relicense libbpf as LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause")
  907b22365115 ("tools: bpftool: dual license all files")
