[ Upstream commit 64165ddf8ea184631c65e3bbc8d59f6d940590ca ]

Fix bpf_map_lookup_and_delete_elem_flags() to pass the return code through
libbpf_err_errno() as we do similarly in bpf_map_lookup_and_delete_elem().

[ Upstream commit 45f2bebc8079788f62f22d9e8b2819afb1789d7b ]

__BYTE_ORDER is supposed to be defined by a libc, and __BYTE_ORDER__ -
by a compiler. bpf_core_read.h checks __BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN,
which is true if neither are defined, leading to incorrect behavior on
big-endian hosts if libc headers are not included, which is often the
case.

btf_header's str_off+str_len or type_off+type_len can overflow as they
are u32s. This will lead to bypassing the sanity checks during BTF
parsing, resulting in crashes afterwards. Fix by using 64-bit signed
integers for comparison.

<title>libbpf: Fix skel_internal.h to set errno on loader retval &lt; 0</title>

[ Upstream commit e68ac0082787f4e8ee6ae5b19076ec7709ce715b ]

When the loader indicates an internal error (result of a checked bpf
system call), it returns the result in attr.test.retval. However, tests
that rely on ASSERT_OK_PTR on NULL (returned from light skeleton) may
miss that NULL denotes an error if errno is set to 0. This would result
in skel pointer being NULL, while ASSERT_OK_PTR returning 1, leading to
a SEGV on dereference of skel, because libbpf_get_error relies on the
assumption that errno is always set in case of error for ptr == NULL.

In particular, this was observed for the ksyms_module test. When
executed using `./test_progs -t ksyms`, prior tests manipulated errno
and the test didn't crash when it failed at ksyms_module load, while
using `./test_progs -t ksyms_module` crashed due to errno being
untouched.

If libbpf encounters an ELF file that has been stripped of its symbol
table, it will crash in bpf_object__add_programs() when trying to
dereference the obj-&gt;efile.symbols pointer.

Fix this by erroring out of bpf_object__elf_collect() if it is not able
able to find the symbol table.

[ Upstream commit bcfd367c2839f2126c048fe59700ec1b538e2b06 ]

When a BPF object is compiled without BTF info (without -g),
trying to link such objects using bpftool causes a SIGSEGV due to
btf__get_nr_types accessing obj-&gt;btf which is NULL. Fix this by
checking for the NULL pointer, and return error.

Reproducer:
$ cat a.bpf.c
extern int foo(void);
int bar(void) { return foo(); }
$ cat b.bpf.c
int foo(void) { return 0; }
$ clang -O2 -target bpf -c a.bpf.c
$ clang -O2 -target bpf -c b.bpf.c
$ bpftool gen obj out a.bpf.o b.bpf.o
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

After fix:
$ bpftool gen obj out a.bpf.o b.bpf.o
libbpf: failed to find BTF info for object 'a.bpf.o'
Error: failed to link 'a.bpf.o': Unknown error -22 (-22)

Fixes: a46349227cd8 (libbpf: Add linker extern resolution support for functions and global variables)
