pull-request: bpf-next 2018-08-07

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

The main changes are:

1) Add cgroup local storage for BPF programs, which provides a fast
   accessible memory for storing various per-cgroup data like number
   of transmitted packets, etc, from Roman.

2) Support bpf_get_socket_cookie() BPF helper in several more program
   types that have a full socket available, from Andrey.

3) Significantly improve the performance of perf events which are
   reported from BPF offload. Also convert a couple of BPF AF_XDP
   samples overto use libbpf, both from Jakub.

4) seg6local LWT provides the End.DT6 action, which allows to
   decapsulate an outer IPv6 header containing a Segment Routing Header.
   Adds this action now to the seg6local BPF interface, from Mathieu.

5) Do not mark dst register as unbounded in MOV64 instruction when
   both src and dst register are the same, from Arthur.

6) Define u_smp_rmb() and u_smp_wmb() to their respective barrier
   instructions on arm64 for the AF_XDP sample code, from Brian.

7) Convert the tcp_client.py and tcp_server.py BPF selftest scripts
   over from Python 2 to Python 3, from Jeremy.

8) Enable BTF build flags to the BPF sample code Makefile, from Taeung.

9) Remove an unnecessary rcu_read_lock() in run_lwt_bpf(), from Taehee.

10) Several improvements to the README.rst from the BPF documentation
    to make it more consistent with RST format, from Tobin.

11) Replace all occurrences of strerror() by calls to strerror_r()
    in libbpf and fix a FORTIFY_SOURCE build error along with it,
    from Thomas.

12) Fix a bug in bpftool's get_btf() function to correctly propagate
    an error via PTR_ERR(), from Yue.

The BTF conflicts were simple overlapping changes.

The virtio_net conflict was an overlap of a fix of statistics counter,
happening alongisde a move over to a bonafide statistics structure
rather than counting value on the stack.

More advanced applications may want to only replace programs without
destroying associated maps.  Allow libbpf users to achieve that.
Instead of always creating all of the maps at load time, expose to
users an API to reconstruct the map object from already existing
map.

The map parameters are read from the kernel and replace the parameters
of the ELF map.  libbpf does not restrict the map replacement, i.e.
the reused map does not have to be compatible with the ELF map
definition.  We relay on the verifier for checking the compatibility
between maps and programs.  The ELF map definition is completely
overwritten by the information read from the kernel, to make sure
libbpf's view of map object corresponds to the actual map.

Similarly to bpf_prog_load() users of bpf_object__open() may need

Add helper to libbpf for recognizing maps which should not have
ifindex set when program is loaded.  These maps only contain
host metadata and therefore are not marked for offload, e.g.
the perf event map.

Use this helper in bpf_prog_load_xattr().

libbpf can guess program type based on ELF section names.  As libbpf
becomes more popular its association between section name strings and
types becomes more of a standard.  Allow libbpf users to use the same
logic for matching strings to types, e.g. when the string originates
from command line.
