[ Upstream commit 966a7509325395c51c5f6d89e7352b0585e4804b ]

Fix the bug in bpf_object__relocate_core() which can lead to finding
invalid matching BPF program when processing CO-RE relocation. IF
matching program is not found, last encountered program will be assumed
to be correct program and thus error detection won't detect the problem.

[ Upstream commit e89d57d938c8fa80c457982154ed6110804814fe ]

During BPF static linking, all the ELF relocations and .BTF.ext
information (including CO-RE relocations) are preserved for __weak
subprograms that were logically overriden by either previous weak
subprogram instance or by corresponding "strong" (non-weak) subprogram.
This is just how native user-space linkers work, nothing new.

But libbpf is over-zealous when processing CO-RE relocation to error out
when CO-RE relocation belonging to such eliminated weak subprogram is
encountered. Instead of erroring out on this expected situation, log
debug-level message and skip the relocation.

<title>libbpf: Fix a bug with checking bpf_probe_read_kernel() support in old kernels</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit d252a4a499a07bec21c65873f605c3a1ef52ffed ]

Background:
Libbpf automatically replaces calls to BPF bpf_probe_read_{kernel,user}
[_str]() helpers with bpf_probe_read[_str](), if libbpf detects that
kernel doesn't support new APIs. Specifically, libbpf invokes the
probe_kern_probe_read_kernel function to load a small eBPF program into
the kernel in which bpf_probe_read_kernel API is invoked and lets the
kernel checks whether the new API is valid. If the loading fails, libbpf
considers the new API invalid and replaces it with the old API.

static int probe_kern_probe_read_kernel(void)
{
	struct bpf_insn insns[] = {
		BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_10),	/* r1 = r10 (fp) */
		BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_1, -8),	/* r1 += -8 */
		BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_2, 8),		/* r2 = 8 */
		BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_3, 0),		/* r3 = 0 */
		BPF_RAW_INSN(BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL, 0, 0, 0, BPF_FUNC_probe_read_kernel),
		BPF_EXIT_INSN(),
	};
	int fd, insn_cnt = ARRAY_SIZE(insns);

	fd = bpf_prog_load(BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE, NULL,
                           "GPL", insns, insn_cnt, NULL);
	return probe_fd(fd);
}

Bug:
On older kernel versions [0], the kernel checks whether the version
number provided in the bpf syscall, matches the LINUX_VERSION_CODE.
If not matched, the bpf syscall fails. eBPF However, the
probe_kern_probe_read_kernel code does not set the kernel version
number provided to the bpf syscall, which causes the loading process
alwasys fails for old versions. It means that libbpf will replace the
new API with the old one even the kernel supports the new one.

Solution:
After a discussion in [1], the solution is using BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT
program type instead of BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE because kernel does not
enfoce version check for tracepoint programs. I test the patch in old
kernels (4.18 and 4.19) and it works well.

<title>libbpf: .text routines are subprograms in strict mode</title>

<id>bc380eb9d04812eda23fd1d2904389012b50d946</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, libbpf considers a single routine in .text to be a program. This
is particularly confusing when it comes to library objects - a single routine
meant to be used as an extern will instead be considered a bpf_program.

This patch hides this compatibility behavior behind the pre-existing
SEC_NAME strict mode flag.

Currently, libbpf considers a single routine in .text to be a program. This
is particularly confusing when it comes to library objects - a single routine
meant to be used as an extern will instead be considered a bpf_program.

This patch hides this compatibility behavior behind the pre-existing
SEC_NAME strict mode flag.

Adding bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts function for attaching
kprobe program to multiple functions.

  struct bpf_link *
  bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts(const struct bpf_program *prog,
                                        const char *pattern,
                                        const struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts *opts);

User can specify functions to attach with 'pattern' argument that
allows wildcards (*?' supported) or provide symbols or addresses
directly through opts argument. These 3 options are mutually
exclusive.

When using symbols or addresses, user can also provide cookie value
for each symbol/address that can be retrieved later in bpf program
with bpf_get_attach_cookie helper.

  struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts {
          size_t sz;
          const char **syms;
          const unsigned long *addrs;
          const __u64 *cookies;
          size_t cnt;
          bool retprobe;
          size_t :0;
  };

Symbols, addresses and cookies are provided through opts object
(syms/addrs/cookies) as array pointers with specified count (cnt).

Each cookie value is paired with provided function address or symbol
with the same array index.

The program can be also attached as return probe if 'retprobe' is set.

For quick usage with NULL opts argument, like:

  bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts(prog, "ksys_*", NULL)

the 'prog' will be attached as kprobe to 'ksys_*' functions.

Also adding new program sections for automatic attachment:

  kprobe.multi/&lt;symbol_pattern&gt;
  kretprobe.multi/&lt;symbol_pattern&gt;

The symbol_pattern is used as 'pattern' argument in
bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts function.
