This patch adds ability to filter sockets based on cgroup v2 ID.
Such filter is helpful in ss utility for filtering sockets by
cgroup pathname.

<title>inet_diag: add cgroup id attribute</title>

This patch adds cgroup v2 ID to common inet diag message attributes.
Cgroup v2 ID is kernfs ID (ino or ino+gen). This attribute allows filter
inet diag output by cgroup ID obtained by name_to_handle_at() syscall.
When net_cls or net_prio cgroup is activated this ID is equal to 1 (root
cgroup ID) for newly created sockets.

Some notes about this ID:

1) gets initialized in socket() syscall
2) incoming socket gets ID from listening socket
   (not during accept() syscall)
3) not changed when process get moved to another cgroup
4) can point to deleted cgroup (refcounting)

v2:
  - use CONFIG_SOCK_CGROUP_DATA instead if CONFIG_CGROUPS

v3:
  - fix attr size by using nla_total_size_64bit() (Eric Dumazet)
  - more detailed commit message (Konstantin Khlebnikov)

<title>bpf: inet_diag: Dump bpf_sk_storages in inet_diag_dump()</title>

<id>085c20cacf2b72991ce1c9d99a5e2f1d9e73bb68</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch will dump out the bpf_sk_storages of a sk
if the request has the INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES nlattr.

An array of SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_REQ_MAP_FD can be specified in
INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES to select which bpf_sk_storage to dump.
If no map_fd is specified, all bpf_sk_storages of a sk will be dumped.

bpf_sk_storages can be added to the system at runtime.  It is difficult
to find a proper static value for cb-&gt;min_dump_alloc.

This patch learns the nlattr size required to dump the bpf_sk_storages
of a sk.  If it happens to be the very first nlmsg of a dump and it
cannot fit the needed bpf_sk_storages,  it will try to expand the
skb by "pskb_expand_head()".

Instead of expanding it in inet_sk_diag_fill(), it is expanded at a
sleepable context in __inet_diag_dump() so __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM can
be used.  In __inet_diag_dump(), it will retry as long as the
skb is empty and the cb-&gt;min_dump_alloc becomes larger than before.
cb-&gt;min_dump_alloc is bounded by KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.  The min_dump_alloc
is also changed from 'u16' to 'u32' to accommodate a sk that may have
a few large bpf_sk_storages.

The updated cb-&gt;min_dump_alloc will also be used to allocate the skb in
the next dump.  This logic already exists in netlink_dump().

Here is the sample output of a locally modified 'ss' and it could be made
more readable by using BTF later:

<content type='text'>
The INET_DIAG_REQ_BYTECODE nlattr is currently re-found every time when
the "dump()" is re-started.

In a latter patch, it will also need to parse the new
INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES nlattr to learn the map_fds. Thus, this
patch takes this chance to store the parsed nlattr in cb-&gt;data
during the "start" time of a dump.

By doing this, the "bc" argument also becomes unnecessary
and is removed.  Also, the two copies of the INET_DIAG_REQ_BYTECODE
parsing-audit logic between compat/current version can be
consolidated to one.

<title>inet_diag: fix reporting cgroup classid and fallback to priority</title>

<id>1ec17dbd90f8b638f41ee650558609c1af63dfa0</id>
<content type='text'>
Field idiag_ext in struct inet_diag_req_v2 used as bitmap of requested
extensions has only 8 bits. Thus extensions starting from DCTCPINFO
cannot be requested directly. Some of them included into response
unconditionally or hook into some of lower 8 bits.

Extension INET_DIAG_CLASS_ID has not way to request from the beginning.

This patch bundle it with INET_DIAG_TCLASS (ipv6 tos), fixes space
reservation, and documents behavior for other extensions.

Also this patch adds fallback to reporting socket priority. This filed
is more widely used for traffic classification because ipv4 sockets
automatically maps TOS to priority and default qdisc pfifo_fast knows
about that. But priority could be changed via setsockopt SO_PRIORITY so
INET_DIAG_TOS isn't enough for predicting class.

Also cgroup2 obsoletes net_cls classid (it always zero), but we cannot
reuse this field for reporting cgroup2 id because it is 64-bit (ino+gen).

So, after this patch INET_DIAG_CLASS_ID will report socket priority
for most common setup when net_cls isn't set and/or cgroup2 in use.

Field idiag_ext in struct inet_diag_req_v2 used as bitmap of requested
extensions has only 8 bits. Thus extensions starting from DCTCPINFO
cannot be requested directly. Some of them included into response
unconditionally or hook into some of lower 8 bits.

Extension INET_DIAG_CLASS_ID has not way to request from the beginning.

This patch bundle it with INET_DIAG_TCLASS (ipv6 tos), fixes space
reservation, and documents behavior for other extensions.

Also this patch adds fallback to reporting socket priority. This filed
is more widely used for traffic classification because ipv4 sockets
automatically maps TOS to priority and default qdisc pfifo_fast knows
about that. But priority could be changed via setsockopt SO_PRIORITY so
INET_DIAG_TOS isn't enough for predicting class.

Also cgroup2 obsoletes net_cls classid (it always zero), but we cannot
reuse this field for reporting cgroup2 id because it is 64-bit (ino+gen).

So, after this patch INET_DIAG_CLASS_ID will report socket priority

<title>inet_diag: Add equal-operator for ports</title>

inet_diag currently provides less/greater than or equal operators for
comparing ports when filtering sockets. An equal comparison can be
performed by combining the two existing operators, or a user can for
example request a port range and then do the final filtering in
userspace. However, these approaches both have drawbacks. Implementing
equal using LE/GE causes the size and complexity of a filter to grow
quickly as the number of ports increase, while it on busy machines would
be great if the kernel only returns information about relevant sockets.

This patch introduces source and destination port equal operators.
INET_DIAG_BC_S_EQ is used to match a source port, INET_DIAG_BC_D_EQ a
destination port, and usage is the same as for the existing port
operators.  I.e., the port to match is stored in the no-member of the
next inet_diag_bc_op-struct in the filter.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license</title>

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
