Merge branch 'bpf: bpf link iterator'

Dmitrii Dolgov says:

====================

Bpf links seem to be one of the important structures for which no
iterator is provided. Such iterator could be useful in those cases when
generic 'task/file' is not suitable or better performance is needed.

The implementation is mostly copied from prog iterator. This time tests were
executed, although I still had to exclude test_bpf_nf (failed to find BTF info
for global/extern symbol 'bpf_skb_ct_lookup') -- since it's unrelated, I hope
it's a minor issue.

Per suggestion from the previous discussion, there is a new patch for
converting CHECK to corresponding ASSERT_* macro. Such replacement is done only
if the final result would be the same, e.g. CHECK with important-looking custom
formatting strings are still in place -- from what I understand ASSERT_*
doesn't allow to specify such format.

The third small patch fixes what looks like a copy-paste error in the condition
checking.

Merge tag '5.17-net-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core
----

- Defer freeing TCP skbs to the BH handler, whenever possible, or at
least perform the freeing outside of the socket lock section to
decrease cross-CPU allocator work and improve latency.

- Add netdevice refcount tracking to locate sources of netdevice and
net namespace refcount leaks.

- Make Tx watchdog less intrusive - avoid pausing Tx and restarting
all queues from a single CPU removing latency spikes.

- Various small optimizations throughout the stack from Eric Dumazet.

- Make netdev->dev_addr[] constant, force modifications to go via
appropriate helpers to allow us to keep addresses in ordered data
structures.

- Replace unix_table_lock with per-hash locks, improving performance
of bind() calls.

- Extend skb drop tracepoint with a drop reason.

- Allow SO_MARK and SO_PRIORITY setsockopt under CAP_NET_RAW.

BPF
---

- New helpers:
- bpf_find_vma(), find and inspect VMAs for profiling use cases
- bpf_loop(), runtime-bounded loop helper trading some execution
time for much faster (if at all converging) verification
- bpf_strncmp(), improve performance, avoid compiler flakiness
- bpf_get_func_arg(), bpf_get_func_ret(), bpf_get_func_arg_cnt()
for tracing programs, all inlined by the verifier

- Support BPF relocations (CO-RE) in the kernel loader.

- Further the support for BTF_TYPE_TAG annotations.

- Allow access to local storage in sleepable helpers.

- Convert verifier argument types to a composable form with different
attributes which can be shared across types (ro, maybe-null).

- Prepare libbpf for upcoming v1.0 release by cleaning up APIs,
creating new, extensible ones where missing and deprecating those
to be removed.

Protocols
---------

- WiFi (mac80211/cfg80211):
- notify user space about long "come back in N" AP responses,
allow it to react to such temporary rejections

- Bluetooth:
- rework of HCI command execution serialization to use a common
queue and work struct, and improve handling errors reported in
the middle of a batch of commands

parsing pitfalls

- support fastclose option (quick shutdown of the full MPTCP
connection, similar to TCP RST in regular TCP)

- MCTP (Management Component Transport) over serial, as defined by
DMTF spec DSP0253 - "MCTP Serial Transport Binding".

Driver API
----------

- Support timestamping on bond interfaces in active/passive mode.

- Introduce generic phylink link mode validation for drivers which
don't have any quirks and where MAC capability bits fully express
what's supported. Allow PCS layer to participate in the validation.
Convert a number of drivers.

- Add support to set/get size of buffers on the Rx rings and size of
the tx copybreak buffer via ethtool.

- Support offloading TC actions as first-class citizens rather than
only as attributes of filters, improve sharing and device resource
utilization.

Merge branch 'bpf: CO-RE support in the kernel'

Alexei Starovoitov says:

====================

From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

v4->v5:
. Reduce number of memory allocations in candidate cache logic
. Fix couple UAF issues
. Add Andrii's patch to cleanup struct bpf_core_cand
. More thorough tests
. Planned followups:
- support -v in lskel
- move struct bpf_core_spec out of bpf_core_apply_relo_insn to
reduce stack usage
- implement bpf_core_types_are_compat

v3->v4:
. complete refactor of find candidates logic.
Now it has small permanent cache.
. Fix a bug in gen_loader related to attach_kind.
. Fix BTF log size limit.
. More tests.

v2->v3:
. addressed Andrii's feedback in every patch.
New field in union bpf_attr changed from "core_relo" to "core_relos".
. added one more test and checkpatch.pl-ed the set.

v1->v2:
. Refactor uapi to pass 'struct bpf_core_relo' from LLVM into libbpf and further
into the kernel instead of bpf_core_apply_relo() bpf helper. Because of this
change the CO-RE algorithm has an ability to log error and debug events through
the standard bpf verifer log mechanism which was not possible with helper
approach.
. #define RELO_CORE macro was removed and replaced with btf_member_bit_offset() patch.

This set introduces CO-RE support in the kernel.
There are several reasons to add such support:
1. It's a step toward signed BPF programs.
2. It allows golang like languages that struggle to adopt libbpf
to take advantage of CO-RE powers.
3. Currently the field accessed by 'ldx [R1 + 10]' insn is recognized
by the verifier purely based on +10 offset. If R1 points to a union
the verifier picks one of the fields at this offset.
With CO-RE the kernel can disambiguate the field access.

Alexei Starovoitov (16):
libbpf: Replace btf__type_by_id() with btf_type_by_id().
bpf: Rename btf_member accessors.
bpf: Prepare relo_core.c for kernel duty.
bpf: Define enum bpf_core_relo_kind as uapi.
bpf: Pass a set of bpf_core_relo-s to prog_load command.
bpf: Adjust BTF log size limit.
bpf: Add bpf_core_add_cands() and wire it into
bpf_core_apply_relo_insn().
libbpf: Use CO-RE in the kernel in light skeleton.
libbpf: Support init of inner maps in light skeleton.
libbpf: Clean gen_loader's attach kind.
selftests/bpf: Add lskel version of kfunc test.
selftests/bpf: Improve inner_map test coverage.
selftests/bpf: Convert map_ptr_kern test to use light skeleton.
selftests/bpf: Additional test for CO-RE in the kernel.
selftests/bpf: Revert CO-RE removal in test_ksyms_weak.

For example:

Refactor:

- Make all writes to netdev->dev_addr go thru helpers, so that we can
add this address to the address rbtree and handle the updates

- Various TCP cleanups and optimizations including improvements to
CPU cache use

- Simplify the gnet_stats, Qdisc stats' handling and remove
qdisc->running sequence counter

- Driver changes and API updates to address devlink locking
deficiencies"
