[ Upstream commit fbdd61c94bcb09b0c0eb0655917bf4193d07aac1 ]

When enable CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT, verifier will reject bpf_timer with
returning -EOPNOTSUPP.

Therefore, skip test cases when errno is EOPNOTSUPP.

<title>bpf: Make reg_not_null() true for CONST_PTR_TO_MAP</title>

[ Upstream commit 5534e58f2e9bd72b253d033ee0af6e68eb8ac96b ]

When reg-&gt;type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, it can not be null. However the
verifier explores the branches under rX == 0 in check_cond_jmp_op()
even if reg-&gt;type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, because it was not checked for
in reg_not_null().

Fix this by adding CONST_PTR_TO_MAP to the set of types that are
considered non nullable in reg_not_null().

An old "unpriv: cmp map pointer with zero" selftest fails with this
change, because now early out correctly triggers in
check_cond_jmp_op(), making the verification to pass.

In practice verifier may allow pointer to null comparison in unpriv,
since in many cases the relevant branch and comparison op are removed
as dead code. So change the expected test result to __success_unpriv.

<title>selftests/bpf: fix implementation of smp_mb()</title>

[ Upstream commit 0769857a07b4451a1dc1c3ad1f1c86a6f4ce136a ]

As BPF doesn't include any barrier instructions, smp_mb() is implemented
by doing a dummy value returning atomic operation. Such an operation
acts a full barrier as enforced by LKMM and also by the work in progress
BPF memory model.

If the returned value is not used, clang[1] can optimize the value
returning atomic instruction in to a normal atomic instruction which
provides no ordering guarantees.

Mark the variable as volatile so the above optimization is never
performed and smp_mb() works as expected.

The below commit that updated BPF_MAP_TYPE_LRU_HASH free target,
also updated tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_lru_map to match.

But that missed one case that passes with 4 cores, but fails at
higher cpu counts.

Update test_lru_sanity3 to also adjust its expectation of target_free.

This time tested with 1, 4, 16, 64 and 384 cpu count.

The below commit that updated BPF_MAP_TYPE_LRU_HASH free target,
also updated tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_lru_map to match.

But that missed one case that passes with 4 cores, but fails at
higher cpu counts.

Update test_lru_sanity3 to also adjust its expectation of target_free.

This time tested with 1, 4, 16, 64 and 384 cpu count.

Fixes: d4adf1c9ee77 ("bpf: Adjust free target to avoid global starvation of LRU map")
