[ Upstream commit 67cf52cdb6c8fa6365d29106555dacf95c9fd374 ]

When dumping the control flow graphs for programs using the 16-byte long
load instruction, we need to skip the second part of this instruction
when looking for the next instruction to process. Otherwise, we end up
printing "BUG_ld_00" from the kernel disassembler in the CFG.

<title>tools: bpftool: Remove invalid \' json escape</title>

[ Upstream commit c679bbd611c08b0559ffae079330bc4e5574696a ]

RFC8259 ("The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange
Format") only specifies \", \\, \/, \b, \f, \n, \r, and \r as valid
two-character escape sequences. This does not include \', which is not
required in JSON because it exclusively uses double quotes as string
separators.

Solidus (/) may be escaped, but does not have to. Only reverse
solidus (\), double quotes ("), and the control characters have to be
escaped. Therefore, with this fix, bpftool correctly supports all valid
two-character escape sequences (but still does not support characters
that require multi-character escape sequences).

Witout this fix, attempting to load a JSON file generated by bpftool
using Python 3.10.6's default json.load() may fail with the error
"Invalid \escape" if the file contains the invalid escaped single
quote (\').

Use the new type-safe wrappers around bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd().

Split the bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd() call in build_btf_type_table() in
two, since knowing the type helps with the Memory Sanitizer.

Improve map_parse_fd_and_info() type safety by using
struct bpf_map_info * instead of void * for info.

<title>bpftool: profile online CPUs instead of possible</title>

The number of online cpu may be not equal to possible cpu.
"bpftool prog profile" can not create pmu event on possible
but on online cpu.

$ dmidecode -s system-product-name
PowerEdge R620
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible
0-47
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
0-31

Disable cpu dynamically:
$ echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online

If one cpu is offline, perf_event_open will return ENODEV.
To fix this issue:
* check value returned and skip offline cpu.
* close pmu_fd immediately on error path, avoid fd leaking.

<title>bpftool: Always disable stack protection for BPF objects</title>

the bpftool build fails:

When passing compiler variables like CC=$(HOSTCC) to a submake
we must ensure the variable is quoted in order to handle cases
where $(HOSTCC) may be multiple binaries.

For example when using ccache $HOSTCC may be:
"/usr/bin/ccache /usr/bin/gcc"

If we pass CC without quotes like CC=$(HOSTCC) only the first
"/usr/bin/ccache" part will be assigned to the CC variable which
will cause an error due to dropping the "/usr/bin/gcc" part of
the variable in the submake invocation.

This fixes errors such as:
/usr/bin/ccache: invalid option -- 'd'

<title>bpftool: Fix linkage with statically built libllvm</title>

Since the commit eb9d1acf634b ("bpftool: Add LLVM as default library for
disassembling JIT-ed programs") we might link the bpftool program with the
libllvm library. This works fine when a shared libllvm library is available,
but fails if we want to link bpftool with a statically built LLVM:

  [...]
  /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libLLVMSupport.a(CrashRecoveryContext.cpp.o): in function `llvm::CrashRecoveryContextCleanup::~CrashRecoveryContextCleanup()':
  CrashRecoveryContext.cpp:(.text._ZN4llvm27CrashRecoveryContextCleanupD0Ev+0x17): undefined reference to `operator delete(void*, unsigned long)'
  /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libLLVMSupport.a(CrashRecoveryContext.cpp.o): in function `llvm::CrashRecoveryContext::~CrashRecoveryContext()':
  CrashRecoveryContext.cpp:(.text._ZN4llvm20CrashRecoveryContextD2Ev+0xc8): undefined reference to `operator delete(void*, unsigned long)'
  [...]

So in the case of static libllvm we need to explicitly link bpftool with
required libraries, namely, libstdc++ and those provided by the `llvm-config
--system-libs` command. We can distinguish between the shared and static cases
by using the `llvm-config --shared-mode` command.

Since the commit eb9d1acf634b ("bpftool: Add LLVM as default library for
disassembling JIT-ed programs") we might link the bpftool program with the
libllvm library. This works fine when a shared libllvm library is available,
but fails if we want to link bpftool with a statically built LLVM:

  [...]
  /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libLLVMSupport.a(CrashRecoveryContext.cpp.o): in function `llvm::CrashRecoveryContextCleanup::~CrashRecoveryContextCleanup()':

Remove the empty vmlinux.h if bpftool failed to dump btf info.
The empty vmlinux.h can hide real error when reading output
of make.

This is done by adding .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target in related
makefiles.
