bpf: Allow compiler to inline most of bpf_local_storage_lookup()
In various performance profiles of kernels with BPF programs attached,
bpf_local_storage_lookup() appears as a significant portion of CPU
cycles spent. To enable the compiler generate more optimal code, turn
bpf_local_storage_lookup() into a static inline function, where only the
cache insertion code path is outlined
Notably, outlining cache insertion helps avoid bloating callers by
duplicating setting up calls to raw_spin_{lock,unlock}_irqsave() (on
architectures which do not inline spin_lock/unlock, such as x86), which
would cause the compiler produce worse code by deciding to outline
otherwise inlinable functions. The call overhead is neutral, because we
make 2 calls either way: either calling raw_spin_lock_irqsave() and
raw_spin_unlock_irqsave(); or call __bpf_local_storage_insert_cache(),
which calls raw_spin_lock_irqsave(), followed by a tail-call to
raw_spin_unlock_irqsave() where the compiler can perform TCO and (in
optimized uninstrumented builds) turns it into a plain jump. The call to
__bpf_local_storage_insert_cache() can be elided entirely if
cacheit_lockit is a false constant expression.
Based on results from './benchs/run_bench_local_storage.sh' (21 trials,
reboot between each trial; x86 defconfig + BPF, clang 16) this produces
improvements in throughput and latency in the majority of cases, with an
average (geomean) improvement of 8%:
The on_lookup test in {cgrp,task}_ls_recursion.c is removed
because the bpf_local_storage_lookup is no longer traceable
and adding tracepoint will make the compiler generate worse

that programs compiled against an older version of libbpf (with a smaller
size of the bpf_xdp_query_opts struct) will have its stack corrupted by
libbpf writing out of bounds.
The patch adding the feature_flags field has an early bail out if the

This patch set adds support for directing a packet to any socket bound
to the same umem. This makes it possible to use the XDP program to
select what socket the packet should be received on. The user can
populate the XSKMAP with various sockets and as long as they share the
same umem, the XDP program can pick any one of them.
The implementation is straight-forward. Instead of testing that the
incoming packet is targeting the same device and queue id as the
socket is bound to, just check that the umem the packet was received
on is the same as the socket we want it to be received on. This
guarantees that the redirect is legal as it is already in the correct
umem.
Patch #1 implements the feature and patch #2 adds documentation.

Transfer RCU lock state across subprog calls
David suggested during the discussion in [0] that we should handle RCU
locks in a similar fashion to spin locks where the verifier understands
when a lock held in a caller is released in callee, or lock taken in
callee is released in a caller, or the callee is called within a lock
critical section. This set extends the same semantics to RCU read locks
and adds a few selftests to verify correct behavior. This issue has also
come up for sched-ext programs.
This would now allow static subprog calls to be made without errors
within RCU read sections, for subprogs to release RCU locks of callers
and return to them, or for subprogs to take RCU lock which is later
released in the caller.
selftests/bpf: Add tests for RCU lock transfer between subprogs
Add selftests covering the following cases:
- A static or global subprog called from within a RCU read section works
- A static subprog taking an RCU read lock which is released in caller works
- A static subprog releasing the caller's RCU read lock works
Global subprogs that leave the lock in an imbalanced state will not
work, as they are verified separately, so ensure those cases fail as
well.

Allow transferring an imbalanced RCU lock state between subprog calls
during verification. This allows patterns where a subprog call returns
with an RCU lock held, or a subprog call releases an RCU lock held by
the caller. Currently, the verifier would end up complaining if the RCU
lock is not released when processing an exit from a subprog, which is
non-ideal if its execution is supposed to be enclosed in an RCU read
section of the caller.
Instead, simply only check whether we are processing exit for frame#0
and do not complain on an active RCU lock otherwise. We only need to
update the check when processing BPF_EXIT insn, as copy_verifier_state
is already set up to do the right thing.

====================
Enable static subprog calls in spin lock critical sections
This set allows a BPF program to make a call to a static subprog within
a bpf_spin_lock critical section. This problem has been hit in sched-ext
and ghOSt [0] as well, and is mostly an annoyance which is worked around
by inling the static subprog into the critical section.
In case of sched-ext, there are a lot of other helper/kfunc calls that
need to be allow listed for the support to be complete, but a separate
follow up will deal with that.
Unlike static subprogs, global subprogs cannot be allowed yet as the
verifier will not explore their body when encountering a call
instruction for them. Therefore, we would need an alternative approach
(some sort of function summarization to ensure a lock is never taken
from a global subprog and all its callees).
selftests/bpf: Add test for static subprog call in lock cs
Add selftests for static subprog calls within bpf_spin_lock critical
section, and ensure we still reject global subprog calls. Also test the
case where a subprog call will unlock the caller's held lock, or the
caller will unlock a lock taken by a subprog call, ensuring correct
transfer of lock state across frames on exit.

bpf: Allow calling static subprogs while holding a bpf_spin_lock
Currently, calling any helpers, kfuncs, or subprogs except the graph
data structure (lists, rbtrees) API kfuncs while holding a bpf_spin_lock
is not allowed. One of the original motivations of this decision was to
force the BPF programmer's hand into keeping the bpf_spin_lock critical
section small, and to ensure the execution time of the program does not
increase due to lock waiting times. In addition to this, some of the
helpers and kfuncs may be unsafe to call while holding a bpf_spin_lock.
However, when it comes to subprog calls, atleast for static subprogs,
the verifier is able to explore their instructions during verification.
Therefore, it is similar in effect to having the same code inlined into
the critical section. Hence, not allowing static subprog calls in the
bpf_spin_lock critical section is mostly an annoyance that needs to be
worked around, without providing any tangible benefit.
Unlike static subprog calls, global subprog calls are not safe to permit
within the critical section, as the verifier does not explore them
during verification, therefore whether the same lock will be taken
again, or unlocked, cannot be ascertained.
Therefore, allow calling static subprogs within a bpf_spin_lock critical
section, and only reject it in case the subprog linkage is global.

tracking unbounded scalars. These improvements reduce the surface of

Patches 1-2 (Maxim): Support the case when boundary checks are first
performed after the register was spilled to the stack.
Patches 3-4 (Maxim): Support narrowing fills.
Patches 5-6 (Eduard): Optimization for state pruning in stacksafe() to
mitigate the verification complexity regression.
Eduard: Patch #5 (#14 in v2) changed significantly:
- Logical changes:
- Handling of STACK_{MISC,ZERO} mix turned out to be incorrect:
a mix of MISC and ZERO in old state is not equivalent to e.g.
just MISC is current state, because verifier could have deduced
zero scalars from ZERO slots in old state for some loads.
- There is no reason to limit the change only to cases when
old or current stack is a spill of unbounded scalar,
it is valid to compare any 64-bit scalar spill with fake
register impersonating MISC.
- STACK_ZERO vs spilled zero case was dropped,
after recent changes for zero handling by Andrii and Yonghong
it is hard (impossible?) to conjure all ZERO slots for an spi.
=> the case does not make any difference in veristat results.
- Use global static variable for unbound_reg (Andrii)
- Code shuffling to remove duplication in stacksafe() (Andrii)

selftests/bpf: States pruning checks for scalar vs STACK_MISC
Check that stacksafe() compares spilled scalars with STACK_MISC.
The following combinations are explored:
- old spill of imprecise scalar is equivalent to cur STACK_{MISC,INVALID}
(plus error in unpriv mode);
- old spill of precise scalar is not equivalent to cur STACK_MISC;
- old STACK_MISC is equivalent to cur scalar;
- old STACK_MISC is not equivalent to cur non-scalar.

bpf: Handle scalar spill vs all MISC in stacksafe()
When check_stack_read_fixed_off() reads value from an spi
all stack slots of which are set to STACK_{MISC,INVALID},
the destination register is set to unbound SCALAR_VALUE.
Exploit this fact by allowing stacksafe() to use a fake
unbound scalar register to compare 'mmmm mmmm' stack value
in old state vs spilled 64-bit scalar in current state
and vice versa.
Veristat results after this patch show some gains:
bpf: Preserve boundaries and track scalars on narrowing fill
When the width of a fill is smaller than the width of the preceding
spill, the information about scalar boundaries can still be preserved,
as long as it's coerced to the right width (done by coerce_reg_to_size).
Even further, if the actual value fits into the fill width, the ID can
be preserved as well for further tracking of equal scalars.
Implement the above improvements, which makes narrowing fills behave the
same as narrowing spills and MOVs between registers.
Two tests are adjusted to accommodate for endianness differences and to
take into account that it's now allowed to do a narrowing fill from the
least significant bits.
reg_bounds_sync is added to coerce_reg_to_size to correctly adjust
umin/umax boundaries after the var_off truncation, for example, a 64-bit
value 0xXXXXXXXX00000000, when read as a 32-bit, gets umin = 0, umax =
0xFFFFFFFF, var_off = (0x0; 0xffffffff00000000), which needs to be
synced down to umax = 0, otherwise reg_bounds_sanity_check doesn't pass.
Support the pattern where an unbounded scalar is spilled to the stack,
then boundary checks are performed on the src register, after which the
stack frame slot is refilled into a register.
Before this commit, the verifier didn't treat the src register and the
stack slot as related if the src register was an unbounded scalar. The
register state wasn't copied, the id wasn't preserved, and the stack
slot was marked as STACK_MISC. Subsequent boundary checks on the src
register wouldn't result in updating the boundaries of the spilled
variable on the stack.
After this commit, the verifier will preserve the bond between src and
dst even if src is unbounded, which permits to do boundary checks on src
and refill dst later, still remembering its boundaries. Such a pattern
is sometimes generated by clang when compiling complex long functions.
One test is adjusted to reflect that now unbounded scalars are tracked.

selftests/bpf: Fix bench runner SIGSEGV
Some benchmarks don't have either "consumer" or "producer" sides. For
example, trig-tp and other BPF triggering benchmarks don't have
consumers, as they only do "producing" by calling into syscall or
predefined uproes. As such it's valid for some benchmarks to have zero
consumers or producers. So allows to specify `-c0` explicitly.
This triggers another problem. If benchmark doesn't support either
consumer or producer side, consumer_thread/producer_thread callback will
be NULL, but benchmark runner will attempt to use those NULL callback to
create threads anyways. So instead of crashing with SIGSEGV in case of
misconfigured benchmark, detect the condition and report error.

As discussed on the BPF IETF mailing list (see link), this patch updates
the "Legacy BPF Packet access instructions" section to clarify which
instructions are deprecated (vs which were never defined and so are not
deprecated).
- The original null check was introduced by commit [0], which introduced
a call `kernel_supports(NULL, ...)` in function bump_rlimit_memlock();
- This call was refactored to use `feat_supported(NULL, ...)` in commit [1].
Looking at all places where kernel_supports() is called:
- There is either `obj->...` access before the call;
- Or `obj` comes from `prog->obj` expression, where `prog` comes from
enumeration of programs in `obj`;
- Or `obj` comes from `prog->obj`, where `prog` is a parameter to one
of the API functions:
- bpf_program__attach_kprobe_opts;
- bpf_program__attach_kprobe;
- bpf_program__attach_ksyscall.
Assuming correct API usage, it appears that `obj` can never be null when
passed to kernel_supports(). Silence the Coverity warning by removing
redundant null check.

Changes from v3:
* Rebase to bpf-next and add missing annotation on new kfunc
Changes from v2:
* Only WARN() for vmlinux kfuncs
Changes from v1:
* Move WARN_ON() up a call level
* Also return error when kfunc set is not properly tagged
* Use BTF_KFUNCS_START/END instead of flags
* Rename BTF_SET8_KFUNC to BTF_SET8_KFUNCS

each function inside BTF_KFUNCS sets
3. At runtime, vmlinux or module BTF is made available in sysfs
4. At runtime, bpftool (or similar) can look at provided BTF and
generate appropriate prototypes for functions with "bpf_kfunc" tag

we also WARN(), as initcall machinery does not handle errors.

selftests/bpf: Disable IPv6 for lwt_redirect test
After a recent change in the vmtest runner, this test started failing
sporadically.
Investigation showed that this test was subject to race condition which
got exacerbated after the vm runner change. The symptoms being that the
logic that waited for an ICMPv4 packet is naive and will break if 5 or
more non-ICMPv4 packets make it to tap0.
When ICMPv6 is enabled, the kernel will generate traffic such as ICMPv6
router solicitation...
On a system with good performance, the expected ICMPv4 packet would very
likely make it to the network interface promptly, but on a system with
poor performance, those "guarantees" do not hold true anymore.
Given that the test is IPv4 only, this change disable IPv6 in the test
netns by setting `net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6` to 1.
This essentially leaves "ping" as the sole generator of traffic in the
network namespace.
If this test was to be made IPv6 compatible, the logic in
`wait_for_packet` would need to be modified.
In more details...
At a high level, the test does:
- create a new namespace
- in `setup_redirect_target` set up lo, tap0, and link_err interfaces as
well as add 2 routes that attaches ingress/egress sections of
`test_lwt_redirect.bpf.o` to the xmit path.
- in `send_and_capture_test_packets` send an ICMP packet and read off
the tap interface (using `wait_for_packet`) to check that a ICMP packet
with the right size is read.
`wait_for_packet` will try to read `max_retry` (5) times from the tap0
fd looking for an ICMPv4 packet matching some criteria.
The problem is that when we set up the `tap0` interface, because IPv6 is
enabled by default, traffic such as Router solicitation is sent through
tap0, as in:
If `wait_for_packet` sees 5 non-ICMPv4 packets, it will return 0, which is what we see in:

While this test would at least fail a couple of time every 10 runs, here

This patch disables strict aliasing for these particular tests, by

These work well in both clang and GCC because both compilers do
constant propagation with -O1 and higher optimization, resulting in
`call 1' BPF instructions being generated, which are calls to kernel
helpers.
However, there is a discrepancy on how the -Wunused-variable
warning (activated by -Wall) is handled in these compilers:
- clang will not emit -Wunused-variable warnings for static variables
defined in C header files, be them constant or not constant.
- GCC will not emit -Wunused-variable warnings for _constant_ static
variables defined in header files, but it will emit warnings for
non-constant static variables defined in header files.
There is no reason for these bpf_helpers_def.h pointers to not be
declared constant, and it is actually desirable to do so, since their
values are not to be changed. So this patch modifies bpf_doc.py to
generate prototypes like:
This allows GCC to not error while compiling BPF programs with `-Wall
-Werror', while still being able to detect and error on legitimate
unused variables in the program themselves.
This change doesn't impact the desired constant propagation in neither
Clang nor GCC with -O1 and higher. On the contrary, being declared as
constant may increase the odds they get constant folded when
used/referred to in certain circumstances.

bpf: Use -Wno-error in certain tests when building with GCC
Certain BPF selftests contain code that, albeit being legal C, trigger
warnings in GCC that cannot be disabled. This is the case for example
for the tests
which contain struct type declarations inside function parameter
lists. This is problematic, because:
- The BPF selftests are built with -Werror.
- The Clang and GCC compilers sometimes differ when it comes to handle
warnings. in the handling of warnings. One compiler may emit
warnings for code that the other compiles compiles silently, and one
compiler may offer the possibility to disable certain warnings, while
the other doesn't.
In order to overcome this problem, this patch modifies the
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile in order to:
1. Enable the possibility of specifing per-source-file extra CFLAGS.
This is done by defining a make variable like:
<source-filename>-CFLAGS := <whateverflags>
And then modifying the proper Make rule in order to use these flags
when compiling <source-filename>.
2. Use the mechanism above to add -Wno-error to CFLAGS for the
following selftests:
Note the corresponding -CFLAGS variables for these files are
defined only if the selftests are being built with GCC.
Note that, while compiler pragmas can generally be used to disable
particular warnings per file, this 1) is only possible for warning
that actually can be disabled in the command line, i.e. that have
-Wno-FOO options, and 2) doesn't apply to -Wno-error.

selftests/bpf: Remove "&>" usage in the selftests
In s390, CI reported that the sock_iter_batch selftest
hits this error very often:
2024-01-26T16:56:49.3091804Z Bind /proc/self/ns/net -> /run/netns/sock_iter_batch_netns failed: No such file or directory

2024-01-26T16:56:49.3772213Z test_sock_iter_batch:FAIL:ip netns add sock_iter_batch_netns unexpected error: 256 (errno 0)
It happens very often in s390 but Manu also noticed it happens very
sparsely in other arch also.
It turns out the default dash shell does not recognize "&>"
as a redirection operator, so the command went to the background.
In the sock_iter_batch selftest, the "ip netns delete" went
into background and then race with the following "ip netns add"
command.
This patch replaces the "&> /dev/null" usage with ">/dev/null 2>&1"
and does this redirection in the SYS_NOFAIL macro instead of doing
it individually by its caller. The SYS_NOFAIL callers do not care
about failure, so it is no harm to do this redirection even if
some of the existing callers do not redirect to /dev/null now.
It touches different test files, so I skipped the Fixes tags
in this patch. Some of the changed tests do not use "&>"
but they use the SYS_NOFAIL, so these tests are also
changed to avoid doing its own redirection because
SYS_NOFAIL does it internally now.

docs/bpf: Improve documentation of 64-bit immediate instructions
For 64-bit immediate instruction, 'BPF_IMM | BPF_DW | BPF_LD' and
src_reg=[0-6], the current documentation describes the 64-bit
immediate is constructed by:
imm64 = (next_imm << 32) | imm
But actually imm64 is only used when src_reg=0. For all other
variants (src_reg != 0), 'imm' and 'next_imm' have separate special
encoding requirement and imm64 cannot be easily used to describe
instruction semantics.
This patch clarifies that 64-bit immediate instructions use
two 32-bit immediate values instead of a 64-bit immediate value,
so later describing individual 64-bit immediate instructions
becomes less confusing.

digital PLLs (DPLL) to track CLKIN inputs and three independent low phase
noise fractional output dividers (FOD) that output low phase noise clocks.
FemtoClock3 supports one Time Synchronization (Time Sync) channel to enable
an external processor to control the phase and frequency of the Time Sync
channel and to take phase measurements using the TDC. Intended applications
are synchronization using the precision time protocol (PTP) and
synchronization with 0.5 Hz and 1 Hz signals from GNSS.

the offset to achieve the alignment between PHC and the external signal
