<title>libbpf: Fix BTF dump of pointer-to-array-of-struct</title>

<id>901ee1d750f29a335423eeb9463c3ca461ca18c2</id>
<content type='text'>
The vmlinux.h generated from BTF is invalid when building
drivers/phy/ti/phy-gmii-sel.c with clang:

vmlinux.h:61702:27: error: array type has incomplete element type ‘struct reg_field’
61702 |  const struct reg_field (*regfields)[3];
      |                           ^~~~~~~~~

bpftool generates a forward declaration for this struct regfield, which
compilers aren't happy about. Here's a simplified reproducer:

	struct inner {
		int val;
	};
	struct outer {
		struct inner (*ptr_to_array)[2];
	} A;

After build with clang -&gt; bpftool btf dump c -&gt; clang/gcc:
./def-clang.h:11:23: error: array has incomplete element type 'struct inner'
        struct inner (*ptr_to_array)[2];

Member ptr_to_array of struct outer is a pointer to an array of struct
inner. In the DWARF generated by clang, struct outer appears before
struct inner, so when converting BTF of struct outer into C, bpftool
issues a forward declaration to struct inner. With GCC the DWARF info is
reversed so struct inner gets fully defined.

That forward declaration is not sufficient when compilers handle an
array of the struct, even when it's only used through a pointer. Note
that we can trigger the same issue with an intermediate typedef:

	struct inner {
	        int val;
	};
	typedef struct inner inner2_t[2];
	struct outer {
	        inner2_t *ptr_to_array;
	} A;

Becomes:

	struct inner;
	typedef struct inner inner2_t[2];

And causes:

./def-clang.h:10:30: error: array has incomplete element type 'struct inner'
	typedef struct inner inner2_t[2];

To fix this, clear through_ptr whenever we encounter an intermediate
array, to make the inner struct part of a strong link and force full
declaration.

<title>libbpf: Add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support</title>

The logic follows that of BTF_KIND_INT most of the time. Sanitization
replaces BTF_KIND_FLOATs with equally-sized empty BTF_KIND_STRUCTs on
older kernels, for example, the following:

    [4] FLOAT 'float' size=4

becomes the following:

    [4] STRUCT '(anon)' size=4 vlen=0

With dwarves patch [1] and this patch, the older kernels, which were
failing with the floating-point-related errors, will now start working
correctly.

Ensure that btf_dump can accommodate new BTF types being appended to BTF
instance after struct btf_dump was created. This came up during attemp to
use btf_dump for raw type dumping in selftests, but given changes are not
excessive, it's good to not have any gotchas in API usage, so I decided to
support such use case in general.

pull-request: bpf-next 2020-09-01

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

There are two small conflicts when pulling, resolve as follows:

1) Merge conflict in tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.c between 88a82120282b ("libbpf: Factor
   out common ELF operations and improve logging") in bpf-next and 1e891e513e16
   ("libbpf: Fix map index used in error message") in net-next. Resolve by taking
   the hunk in bpf-next:

        [...]
        scn = elf_sec_by_idx(obj, obj-&gt;efile.btf_maps_shndx);
        data = elf_sec_data(obj, scn);
        if (!scn || !data) {
                pr_warn("elf: failed to get %s map definitions for %s\n",
                        MAPS_ELF_SEC, obj-&gt;path);
                return -EINVAL;
        }
        [...]

2) Merge conflict in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xsk/rx.c between
   9647c57b11e5 ("xsk: i40e: ice: ixgbe: mlx5: Test for dma_need_sync earlier for
   better performance") in bpf-next and e20f0dbf204f ("net/mlx5e: RX, Add a prefetch
   command for small L1_CACHE_BYTES") in net-next. Resolve the two locations by retaining
   net_prefetch() and taking xsk_buff_dma_sync_for_cpu() from bpf-next. Should look like:

        [...]
        xdp_set_data_meta_invalid(xdp);
        xsk_buff_dma_sync_for_cpu(xdp, rq-&gt;xsk_pool);
        net_prefetch(xdp-&gt;data);
        [...]

We've added 133 non-merge commits during the last 14 day(s) which contain
a total of 246 files changed, 13832 insertions(+), 3105 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Initial support for sleepable BPF programs along with bpf_copy_from_user() helper
   for tracing to reliably access user memory, from Alexei Starovoitov.

2) Add BPF infra for writing and parsing TCP header options, from Martin KaFai Lau.

3) bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path', from Jiri Olsa.

4) AF_XDP support for shared umems between devices and queues, from Magnus Karlsson.

5) Initial prep work for full BPF-to-BPF call support in libbpf, from Andrii Nakryiko.

6) Generalize bpf_sk_storage map &amp; add local storage for inodes, from KP Singh.

7) Implement sockmap/hash updates from BPF context, from Lorenz Bauer.

8) BPF xor verification for scalar types &amp; add BPF link iterator, from Yonghong Song.

9) Use target's prog type for BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT prog verification, from Udip Pant.

10) Rework BPF tracing samples to use libbpf loader, from Daniel T. Lee.

11) Fix xdpsock sample to really cycle through all buffers, from Weqaar Janjua.

12) Improve type safety for tun/veth XDP frame handling, from Maciej Żenczykowski.

13) Various smaller cleanups and improvements all over the place.

Most of libbpf source files already include libbpf_internal.h, so it's a good
place to centralize identifier poisoning. So move kernel integer type
poisoning there. And also add reallocarray to a poison list to prevent
accidental use of it. libbpf_reallocarray() should be used universally
instead.

Re-implement glibc's reallocarray() for libbpf internal-only use.
reallocarray(), unfortunately, is not available in all versions of glibc, so
requires extra feature detection and using reallocarray() stub from
&lt;tools/libc_compat.h&gt; and COMPAT_NEED_REALLOCARRAY. All this complicates build
of libbpf unnecessarily and is just a maintenance burden. Instead, it's
trivial to implement libbpf-specific internal version and use it throughout
libbpf.

Which is what this patch does, along with converting some realloc() uses that
should really have been reallocarray() in the first place.
