pull-request: bpf-next 2017-12-18
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Allow arbitrary function calls from one BPF function to another BPF function.
As of today when writing BPF programs, __always_inline had to be used in
the BPF C programs for all functions, unnecessarily causing LLVM to inflate
code size. Handle this more naturally with support for BPF to BPF calls
such that this __always_inline restriction can be overcome. As a result,
it allows for better optimized code and finally enables to introduce core
BPF libraries in the future that can be reused out of different projects.
x86 and arm64 JIT support was added as well, from Alexei.
2) Add infrastructure for tagging functions as error injectable and allow for
BPF to return arbitrary error values when BPF is attached via kprobes on
those. This way of injecting errors generically eases testing and debugging
without having to recompile or restart the kernel. Tags for opting-in for
this facility are added with BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION(), from Josef.
3) For BPF offload via nfp JIT, add support for bpf_xdp_adjust_head() helper
call for XDP programs. First part of this work adds handling of BPF
capabilities included in the firmware, and the later patches add support
to the nfp verifier part and JIT as well as some small optimizations,
from Jakub.
4) The bpftool now also gets support for basic cgroup BPF operations such
as attaching, detaching and listing current BPF programs. As a requirement
for the attach part, bpftool can now also load object files through
'bpftool prog load'. This reuses libbpf which we have in the kernel tree
as well. bpftool-cgroup man page is added along with it, from Roman.
5) Back then commit e87c6bc385 ("bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for
a single perf event") added support for attaching multiple BPF programs
to a single perf event. Given they are configured through perf's ioctl()
interface, the interface has been extended with a PERF_EVENT_IOC_QUERY_BPF
command in this work in order to return an array of one or multiple BPF
prog ids that are currently attached, from Yonghong.
6) Various minor fixes and cleanups to the bpftool's Makefile as well
as a new 'uninstall' and 'doc-uninstall' target for removing bpftool
itself or prior installed documentation related to it, from Quentin.
7) Add CONFIG_CGROUP_BPF=y to the BPF kernel selftest config file which is
required for the test_dev_cgroup test case to run, from Naresh.
8) Fix reporting of XDP prog_flags for nfp driver, from Jakub.
9) Fix libbpf's exit code from the Makefile when libelf was not found in
the system, also from Jakub.
