samples/bpf: Fix compilation errors with cf-protection option

[ Upstream commit fdf1c728fac541891ef1aa773bfd42728626769c ]

Currently, compiling the bpf programs will result the compilation errors
with the cf-protection option as follows in arm64 and loongarch64 machine
when using gcc 12.3.1 and clang 17.0.6. This commit fixes the compilation
errors by limited the cf-protection option only used in x86 platform.

samples/bpf: Remove the xdp_sample_pkts utility

The functionality of this utility is covered by the xdpdump utility in
xdp-tools.

There's a slight difference in usage as the xdpdump utility's main focus is
to dump packets before or after they are processed by an existing XDP
program. However, xdpdump also has the --load-xdp-program switch, which
will make it attach its own program if no existing program is loaded. With
this, xdp_sample_pkts usage can be converted as:

xdp_sample_pkts eth0
--> xdpdump --load-xdp-program eth0

To get roughly equivalent behaviour.

samples/bpf: Remove the xdp1 and xdp2 utilities

The functionality of these utilities have been incorporated into the

Equivalent functionality is:

xdp1 eth0
--> xdp-bench drop -p parse-ip -l load-bytes eth0

xdp2 eth0
--> xdp-bench drop -p swap-macs eth0

Note that there's a slight difference in behaviour of those examples: the
swap-macs operation of xdp-bench doesn't use the bpf_xdp_load_bytes()
helper to load the packet data, whereas the xdp2 utility did so
unconditionally. For the parse-ip action the use of bpf_xdp_load_bytes()
can be selected by the '-l load-bytes' switch, with the difference that the
xdp-bench utility will perform two separate calls to the helper, one to
load the ethernet header and another to load the IP header; where the xdp1
utility only performed one call always loading 60 bytes of data.

These utilities have all been ported to xdp-tools as functions of the

samples/bpf: Change _kern suffix to .bpf with syscall tracing program

Currently old compile rule (CLANG-bpf) doesn't contains VMLINUX_H define
flag which is essential for the bpf program that includes "vmlinux.h".
Also old compile rule doesn't directly specify the compile target as bpf,
instead it uses bunch of extra options with clang followed by long chain
of commands. (e.g. clang | opt | llvm-dis | llc)

In Makefile, there is already new compile rule which is more simple and
neat. And it also has -D__VMLINUX_H__ option. By just changing the _kern
suffix to .bpf will inherit the benefit of the new CLANG-BPF compile
target.

Also, this commit adds dummy gnu/stub.h to the samples/bpf directory.
As commit 1c2dd16add7e ("selftests/bpf: get rid of -D__x86_64__") noted,
compiling with 'clang -target bpf' will raise an error with stubs.h
unless workaround (-D__x86_64) is used. This commit solves this problem
by adding dummy stub.h to make /usr/include/features.h to follow the
expected path as the same way selftests/bpf dealt with.

samples/bpf: Do not FORCE-recompile libbpf

In samples/bpf/Makefile, libbpf has a FORCE dependency that force it to
be rebuilt. I read this as a way to keep the library up-to-date, given
that we do not have, in samples/bpf, a list of the source files for
libbpf itself. However, a better approach would be to use the
"$(wildcard ...)" function from make, and to have libbpf depend on all
the .c and .h files in its directory. This is what samples/bpf/Makefile
does for bpftool, and also what the BPF selftests' Makefile does for
libbpf.

Let's update the Makefile to avoid rebuilding libbpf all the time (and
bpftool on top of it).

samples/bpf: Install libbpf headers when building

API headers from libbpf should not be accessed directly from the source
directory. Instead, they should be exported with "make install_headers".
Make sure that samples/bpf/Makefile installs the headers properly when
building.

The object compiled from and exported by libbpf are now placed into a
subdirectory of sample/bpf/ instead of remaining in tools/lib/bpf/. We
attempt to remove this directory on "make clean". However, the "clean"
target re-enters the samples/bpf/ directory from the root of the
repository ("$(MAKE) -C ../../ M=$(CURDIR) clean"), in such a way that
$(srctree) and $(src) are not defined, making it impossible to use
$(LIBBPF_OUTPUT) and $(LIBBPF_DESTDIR) in the recipe. So we only attempt
to clean $(CURDIR)/libbpf, which is the default value.

Add a dependency on libbpf's headers for the $(TRACE_HELPERS).

We also change the output directory for bpftool, to place the generated
objects under samples/bpf/bpftool/ instead of building in bpftool's
directory directly. Doing so, we make sure bpftool reuses the libbpf
library previously compiled and installed.

bpf: Use $(pound) instead of \# in Makefiles

Recent-ish versions of make do no longer consider number signs ("#") as
comment symbols when they are inserted inside of a macro reference or in
a function invocation. In such cases, the symbols should not be escaped.

There are a few occurrences of "\#" in libbpf's and samples' Makefiles.
In the former, the backslash is harmless, because grep associates no
particular meaning to the escaped symbol and reads it as a regular "#".
In samples' Makefile, recent versions of make will pass the backslash
down to the compiler, making the probe fail all the time and resulting
in the display of a warning about "make headers_install" being required,
even after headers have been installed.

A similar issue has been addressed at some other locations by commit
9564a8cf422d ("Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd files for future Make").
Let's address it for libbpf's and samples' Makefiles in the same
fashion, by using a "$(pound)" variable (pulled from
tools/scripts/Makefile.include for libbpf, or re-defined for the
samples).

samples: bpf: Fix vmlinux.h generation for XDP samples

Generate vmlinux.h only from the in-tree vmlinux, and remove enum
declarations that would cause a build failure in case of version
mismatches.

samples: bpf: Fix vmlinux.h generation for XDP samples

Generate vmlinux.h only from the in-tree vmlinux, and remove enum
declarations that would cause a build failure in case of version
mismatches.

There are now two options when building the samples:
1. Compile the kernel to use in-tree vmlinux for vmlinux.h
2. Override VMLINUX_BTF for samples using something like this:
make VMLINUX_BTF=/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux -C samples/bpf

This change was tested with relative builds, e.g. cases like:
* make O=build -C samples/bpf
* make KBUILD_OUTPUT=build -C samples/bpf
* make -C samples/bpf
* cd samples/bpf && make

When a suitable VMLINUX_BTF is not found, the following message is
printed:
/home/kkd/src/linux/samples/bpf/Makefile:333: *** Cannot find a vmlinux
for VMLINUX_BTF at any of " ./vmlinux", build the kernel or set
VMLINUX_BTF variable. Stop.

samples: bpf: Convert xdp_redirect_map_multi to XDP samples helper

Use the libbpf skeleton facility and other utilities provided by XDP
samples helper. Also adapt to change of type of mac address map, so that
no resizing is required.

Add a new flag for sample mask that skips priting the
from_device->to_device heading for each line, as xdp_redirect_map_multi
may have two devices but the flow of data may be bidirectional, so the
output would be confusing.
