The previous libbpf patch allows user to specify "prog_flags" to bpf
program load APIs. To enable high 32-bit randomization for a test, we need
to set BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 in "prog_flags".
To enable such randomization for all tests, we need to make sure all places
are passing BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32. Changing them one by one is not
convenient, also, it would be better if a test could be switched to
"normal" running mode without code change.
Given the program load APIs used across bpf selftests are mostly:
bpf_prog_load: load from file
bpf_load_program: load from raw insns
A test_stub.c is implemented for bpf seltests, it offers two functions for
testing purpose:
bpf_prog_test_load
bpf_test_load_program
The are the same as "bpf_prog_load" and "bpf_load_program", except they
also set BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32. Given *_xattr functions are the APIs to
customize any "prog_flags", it makes little sense to put these two
functions into libbpf.
Then, the following CFLAGS are passed to compilations for host programs:
-Dbpf_prog_load=bpf_prog_test_load
-Dbpf_load_program=bpf_test_load_program
They migrate the used load APIs to the test version, hence enable high
32-bit randomization for these tests without changing source code.
Besides all these, there are several testcases are using
"bpf_prog_load_attr" directly, their call sites are updated to pass
BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32.

- bpf_fill_ld_abs_vlan_push_pop:
Prevent zext happens inside PUSH_CNT loop. This could happen because
of BPF_LD_ABS (32-bit def) + BPF_JMP (64-bit use), or BPF_LD_ABS +
EXIT (64-bit use of R0). So, change BPF_JMP to BPF_JMP32 and redefine
R0 at exit path to cut off the data-flow from inside the loop.
- bpf_fill_jump_around_ld_abs:
Jump range is limited to 16 bit. every ld_abs is replaced by 6 insns,
but on arches like arm, ppc etc, there will be one BPF_ZEXT inserted
to extend the error value of the inlined ld_abs sequence which then
contains 7 insns. so, set the dividend to 7 so the testcase could
work on all arches.
- bpf_fill_scale1/bpf_fill_scale2:
Both contains ~1M BPF_ALU32_IMM which will trigger ~1M insn patcher
call because of hi32 randomization later when BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 is
set for bpf selftests. Insn patcher is not efficient that 1M call to
it will hang computer. So , change to BPF_ALU64_IMM to avoid hi32
randomization.

x86_64 and AArch64 perhaps are two arches that running bpf testsuite
frequently, however the zero extension insertion pass is not enabled for
them because of their hardware support.
It is critical to guarantee the pass correction as it is supposed to be
enabled at default for a couple of other arches, for example PowerPC,
SPARC, arm, NFP etc. Therefore, it would be very useful if there is a way
to test this pass on for example x86_64.
The test methodology employed by this set is "poisoning" useless bits. High
32-bit of a definition is randomized if it is identified as not used by any
later insn. Such randomization is only enabled under testing mode which is
gated by the new bpf prog load flags "BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32".

After previous patches, verifier will mark a insn if it really needs zero
extension on dst_reg.
It is then for back-ends to decide how to use such information to eliminate
unnecessary zero extension code-gen during JIT compilation.
One approach is verifier insert explicit zero extension for those insns
that need zero extension in a generic way, JIT back-ends then do not
generate zero extension for sub-register write at default.
However, only those back-ends which do not have hardware zero extension
want this optimization. Back-ends like x86_64 and AArch64 have hardware
zero extension support that the insertion should be disabled.
This patch introduces new target hook "bpf_jit_needs_zext" which returns
false at default, meaning verifier zero extension insertion is disabled at
default. A back-end could override this hook to return true if it doesn't
have hardware support and want verifier insert zero extension explicitly.
Offload targets do not use this native target hook, instead, they could
get the optimization results using bpf_prog_offload_ops.finalize.
NOTE: arches could have diversified features, it is possible for one arch
to have hardware zero extension support for some sub-register write insns
but not for all. For example, PowerPC, SPARC have zero extended loads, but
not for alu32. So when verifier zero extension insertion enabled, these JIT
back-ends need to peephole insns to remove those zero extension inserted
for insn that actually has hardware zero extension support. The peephole
could be as simple as looking the next insn, if it is a special zero
extension insn then it is safe to eliminate it if the current insn has
hardware zero extension support.

The encoding for this new variant is based on BPF_X format. "imm" field was
0 only, now it could be 1 which means doing zero extension unconditionally
.code = BPF_ALU | BPF_MOV | BPF_X
.dst_reg = DST
.src_reg = SRC
.imm = 1
We use this new form for doing zero extension for which verifier will
guarantee SRC == DST.
Implications on JIT back-ends when doing code-gen for
BPF_ALU | BPF_MOV | BPF_X:
1. No change if hardware already does zero extension unconditionally for
sub-register write.
2. Otherwise, when seeing imm == 1, just generate insns to clear high
32-bit. No need to generate insns for the move because when imm == 1,
dst_reg is the same as src_reg at the moment.
Interpreter doesn't need change as well. It is doing unconditionally zero
extension for mov32 already.
One helper macro BPF_ZEXT_REG is added to help creating zero extension
insn using this new mov32 variant.
One helper function insn_is_zext is added for checking one insn is an
zero extension on dst. This will be widely used by a few JIT back-ends in
later patches in this set.

eBPF ISA specification requires high 32-bit cleared when low 32-bit
sub-register is written. This applies to destination register of ALU32 etc.
JIT back-ends must guarantee this semantic when doing code-gen. x86_64 and
AArch64 ISA has the same semantics, so the corresponding JIT back-end
doesn't need to do extra work.
However, 32-bit arches (arm, x86, nfp etc.) and some other 64-bit arches
(PowerPC, SPARC etc) need to do explicit zero extension to meet this
requirement, otherwise code like the following will fail.
u64_value = (u64) u32_value
... other uses of u64_value
This is because compiler could exploit the semantic described above and
save those zero extensions for extending u32_value to u64_value, these JIT
back-ends are expected to guarantee this through inserting extra zero
extensions which however could be a significant increase on the code size.
Some benchmarks show there could be ~40% sub-register writes out of total
insns, meaning at least ~40% extra code-gen.
One observation is these extra zero extensions are not always necessary.
Take above code snippet for example, it is possible u32_value will never be
casted into a u64, the value of high 32-bit of u32_value then could be
ignored and extra zero extension could be eliminated.
This patch implements this idea, insns defining sub-registers will be
marked when the high 32-bit of the defined sub-register matters. For
those unmarked insns, it is safe to eliminate high 32-bit clearnace for
them.
Algo:
- Split read flags into READ32 and READ64.
- Record index of insn that does sub-register write. Keep the index inside
reg state and update it during verifier insn walking.
- A full register read on a sub-register marks its definition insn as
needing zero extension on dst register.
A new sub-register write overrides the old one.
- When propagating read64 during path pruning, also mark any insn defining
a sub-register that is read in the pruned path as full-register.

Currently, bpf program can already collect stack traces
through kernel function get_perf_callchain()
when certain events happens (e.g., cache miss counter or
cpu clock counter overflows). But such stack traces are
not enough for jitted programs, e.g., hhvm (jited php).
To get real stack trace, jit engine internal data structures
need to be traversed in order to get the real user functions.

it is not a stable interface either.
Instead, hhvm implements a signal handler,
e.g. for SIGALARM, and a set of program locations which
it can dump stack traces. When it receives a signal, it will
dump the stack in next such program location.
This patch implements bpf_send_signal() helper to send
a signal to hhvm in real time, resulting in intended stack traces.
Patch #1 implemented the bpf_send_helper() in the kernel.
Patch #2 synced uapi header bpf.h to tools directory.

This patch set adds BTF-to-C dumping APIs to libbpf, allowing to output
a subset of BTF types as a compilable C type definitions. This is useful by
itself, as raw BTF output is not easy to inspect and comprehend. But it's also
a big part of BPF CO-RE (compile once - run everywhere) initiative aimed at
allowing to write relocatable BPF programs, that won't require on-the-host
kernel headers (and would be able to inspect internal kernel structures, not
exposed through kernel headers).
This patch set consists of three groups of patches and one pre-patch, with the
BTF-to-C dumper API depending on the first two groups.
Pre-patch #1 fixes issue with libbpf_internal.h.
btf__parse_elf() API patches:
- patch #2 adds btf__parse_elf() API to libbpf, allowing to load BTF and/or
BTF.ext from ELF file;
- patch #3 utilizies btf__parse_elf() from bpftool for `btf dump file` command;
- patch #4 switches test_btf.c to use btf__parse_elf() to check for presence
of BTF data in object file.
libbpf's internal hashmap patches:
- patch #5 adds resizeable non-thread safe generic hashmap to libbpf;
- patch #6 adds tests for that hashmap;
- patch #7 migrates btf_dedup()'s dedup_table to use hashmap w/ APPEND.
BTF-to-C dumper API patches:
- patch #8 adds btf_dump APIs with all the logic for laying out type
definitions in correct order and emitting C syntax for them;
- patch #9 adds lots of tests for common and quirky parts of C type system;
- patch #10 adds support for C-syntax btf dumping to bpftool;
- patch #11 updates bpftool documentation to mention C-syntax dump option;
- patch #12 update bash-completion for btf dump sub-command.
v2->v3:
- fix bpftool-btf.rst formatting (Quentin);
- simplify bash autocompletion script (Quentin);
- better error message in btf dump (Quentin);
v1->v2:
- removed unuseful file header (Jakub);
- removed inlines in .c (Jakub);
- added 'format {c|raw}' keyword/option (Jakub);
- re-use i var for iteration in btf_dump_c() (Jakub);
- bumped libbpf version to 0.0.4;
v0->v1:
- fix bug in hashmap__for_each_bucket_entry() not handling empty hashmap;
- removed `btf dump`-specific libbpf logging hook up (Quentin has more generic
patchset);
- change btf__parse_elf() to always load .BTF and return it as a result, with
.BTF.ext being optional and returned through struct btf_ext** arg (Alexei);
- endianness check to use __BYTE_ORDER__ (Alexei);
- bool:1 to __u8:1 in type_aux_state (Alexei);
- added HASHMAP_APPEND strategy to hashmap, changed
hashmap__for_each_key_entry() to also check for key equality during
iteration (multimap iteration for key);
- added new tests for empty hashmap and hashmap as a multimap;
- tried to clarify weak/strong dependency ordering comments (Alexei)
- btf dump test's expected output - support better commenting aproach (Alexei);
- added bash-completion for a new "c" option (Alexei).

BTF contains enough type information to allow generating valid
compilable C header w/ correct layout of structs/unions and all the
typedef/enum definitions. This patch adds a new "object" - btf_dump to
facilitate dumping BTF as valid C. btf_dump__dump_type() is the main API
which takes care of dumping out (through user-provided printf-like
callback function) C definitions for given type ID and it's required
dependencies. This allows for not just dumping out entirety of BTF types,
but also selective filtering based on user-provided criterias w/ minimal
set of dependent types.

There is a need for fast point lookups inside libbpf for multiple use
cases (e.g., name resolution for BTF-to-C conversion, by-name lookups in
BTF for upcoming BPF CO-RE relocation support, etc). This patch
implements simple resizable non-thread safe hashmap using single linked
list chains.
Four different insert strategies are supported:
- HASHMAP_ADD - only add key/value if key doesn't exist yet;
- HASHMAP_SET - add key/value pair if key doesn't exist yet; otherwise,
update value;
- HASHMAP_UPDATE - update value, if key already exists; otherwise, do
nothing and return -ENOENT;
- HASHMAP_APPEND - always add key/value pair, even if key already exists.
This turns hashmap into a multimap by allowing multiple values to be
associated with the same key. Most useful read API for such hashmap is
hashmap__for_each_key_entry() iteration. If hashmap__find() is still
used, it will return last inserted key/value entry (first in a bucket
chain).
For HASHMAP_SET and HASHMAP_UPDATE, old key/value pair is returned, so
that calling code can handle proper memory management, if necessary.

All prune points inside a callee bpf function most likely will have
different callsites. For example, if function foo() is called from
two callsites the half of explored states in all prune points in foo()
will be useless for subsequent walking of one of those callsites.
Fortunately explored_states pruning heuristics keeps the number of states
per prune point small, but walking these states is still a waste of cpu
time when the callsite of the current state is different from the callsite
of the explored state.
To improve pruning logic convert explored_states into hash table and
use simple insn_idx ^ callsite hash to select hash bucket.
This optimization has no effect on programs without bpf2bpf calls
and drastically improves programs with calls.
In the later case it reduces total memory consumption in 1M scale tests
by almost 3 times (peak_states drops from 5752 to 2016).
Care should be taken when comparing the states for equivalency.
Since the same hash bucket can now contain states with different indices
the insn_idx has to be part of verifier_state and compared.
Different hash table sizes and different hash functions were explored,
but the results were not significantly better vs this patch.
They can be improved in the future.
Hit/miss heuristic is not counting index miscompare as a miss.
Otherwise verifier stats become unstable when experimenting
with different hash functions.

Few interesting points to note:
1. Since the VMBUS does not allow a resize operation of the ring size, the
socket buffer size option should be set prior to establishing the

2. Setting the socket option comes with the cost of that much memory being

The point of the pause-on-fail argument is to leave the setup as is after
a test fails to allow a user to debug why it failed. Move the cleanup
after posting the result to the user to make it so.
Random names for the namespaces are not user friendly when trying to
debug a failure. Make them simpler and more direct for the tests. Run
cleanup at the beginning to ensure they are cleaned up if they already
exist.
Remove cleanup_done. There is no harm in doing cleanup twice; just
ignore any errors related to not existing - which is already done.

New userspace on an older kernel can send unknown and unsupported
attributes resulting in an incompelete config which is almost
always wrong for routing (few exceptions are passthrough settings
like the protocol that installed the route).
Set strict_start_type in the policies for IPv4 and IPv6 routes and
rules to detect new, unsupported attributes and fail the route add.

====================
net: Export functions for nexthop code
This set exports ipv4 and ipv6 fib functions for use by the nexthop
code. It also adds new ones to send route notifications if a nexthop
configuration changes.
v2
- repost of patches dropped at the end of the last dev window
added patch 8 which exports nh_update_mtu since it is inline with
the other patches

nexthop code.
