As it turns out, the terms in definition lists in the rST file are
already rendered with bold-ish formatting when generating the man pages;
all double-star sequences we have in the commands for the command
description are unnecessary, and can be removed to make the
documentation easier to read.
The rST files were automatically processed with:
sed -i '/DESCRIPTION/,/OPTIONS/ { /^\*/ s/\*\*//g }' b*.rst

The rST manual pages for bpftool would use a mix of tabs and spaces for
indentation. While this is the norm in C code, this is rather unusual
for rST documents, and over time we've seen many contributors use a
wrong level of indentation for documentation update.
Let's fix bpftool's indentation in docs once and for all:
- Let's use spaces, that are more common in rST files.
- Remove one level of indentation for the synopsis, the command
description, and the "see also" section. As a result, all sections
start with the same indentation level in the generated man page.
- Rewrap the paragraphs after the changes.
There is no content change in this patch, only indentation and
rewrapping changes. The wrapping in the generated source files for the
manual pages is changed, but the pages displayed with "man" remain the
same, apart from the adjusted indentation level on relevant sections.
[ Quentin: rebased on bpf-next, removed indent level for command
description and options, updated synopsis, command summary, and "see
also" sections. ]

Add ability to specify a network interface used to resolve XDP hints
kfuncs when loading program through bpftool.
Usage:
bpftool prog load [...] xdpmeta_dev <ifname>
Writing just 'dev <ifname>' instead of 'xdpmeta_dev' is a very probable
mistake that results in not very descriptive errors,
so 'bpftool prog load [...] dev <ifname>' syntax becomes deprecated,
followed by 'bpftool map create [...] dev <ifname>' for consistency.
Now, to offload program, execute:
bpftool prog load [...] offload_dev <ifname>
To offload map:
bpftool map create [...] offload_dev <ifname>
'dev <ifname>' still performs offloading in the commands above, but now
triggers a warning and is excluded from bash completion.
'xdpmeta_dev' and 'offload_dev' are mutually exclusive options, because
'xdpmeta_dev' basically makes a program device-bound without loading it
onto the said device. For now, offloaded programs cannot use XDP hints [0],
but if this changes, using 'offload_dev <ifname>' should cover this case.

We want to support a ringbuf map type where samples are published from
user-space, to be consumed by BPF programs. BPF currently supports a
kernel -> user-space circular ring buffer via the BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF
map type. We'll need to define a new map type for user-space -> kernel,
as none of the helpers exported for BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF will apply
to a user-space producer ring buffer, and we'll want to add one or
more helper functions that would not apply for a kernel-producer
ring buffer.
This patch therefore adds a new BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF map type
definition. The map type is useless in its current form, as there is no
way to access or use it for anything until we one or more BPF helpers. A
follow-on patch will therefore add a new helper function that allows BPF
programs to run callbacks on samples that are published to the ring
buffer.

test_bpftool_synctypes.py helps detecting inconsistencies in bpftool
between the different list of types and options scattered in the
sources, the documentation, and the bash completion. For options that
apply to all bpftool commands, the script had a hardcoded list of
values, and would use them to check whether the man pages are
up-to-date. When writing the script, it felt acceptable to have this
list in order to avoid to open and parse bpftool's main.h every time,
and because the list of global options in bpftool doesn't change so
often.
However, this is prone to omissions, and we recently added a new
-l|--legacy option which was described in common_options.rst, but not
listed in the options summary of each manual page. The script did not
complain, because it keeps comparing the hardcoded list to the (now)
outdated list in the header file.
To address the issue, this commit brings the following changes:
- Options that are common to all bpftool commands (--json, --pretty, and
--debug) are moved to a dedicated file, and used in the definition of
a RST substitution. This substitution is used in the sources of all
the man pages.
- This list of common options is updated, with the addition of the new
-l|--legacy option.
- The script test_bpftool_synctypes.py is updated to compare:
- Options specific to a command, found in C files, for the
interactive help messages, with the same specific options from the
relevant man page for that command.
- Common options, checked just once: the list in main.h is
compared with the new list in substitutions.rst.

Most files in the kernel repository have a SPDX tags. The files that
don't have such a tag (or another license boilerplate) tend to fall
under the GPL-2.0 license. In the past, bpftool's Makefile (for example)
has been marked as GPL-2.0 for that reason, when in fact all bpftool is
dual-licensed.
To prevent a similar confusion from happening with the RST documentation
files for bpftool, let's explicitly mark all files as dual-licensed.

To support the different BPF map or attach types, bpftool must remain

Mixed indentation levels in the lists of options in bpftool's
documentation produces some unexpected results. For the "bpftool" man
page, it prints a warning:
$ make -C bpftool.8
GEN bpftool.8
<stdin>:26: (ERROR/3) Unexpected indentation.
For other pages, there is no warning, but it results in a line break
appearing in the option lists in the generated man pages.
RST paragraphs should have a uniform indentation level. Let's fix it.

All bpftool commands support the options for JSON output and debug from
libbpf. In addition, some commands support additional options
corresponding to specific use cases.
The list of options described in the man pages for the different
commands are not always accurate. The messages for interactive help are
mostly limited to HELP_SPEC_OPTIONS, and are even less representative of
the actual set of options supported for the commands.
Let's update the lists:
- HELP_SPEC_OPTIONS is modified to contain the "default" options (JSON
and debug), and to be extensible (no ending curly bracket).
- All commands use HELP_SPEC_OPTIONS in their help message, and then
complete the list with their specific options.
- The lists of options in the man pages are updated.
- The formatting of the list for bpftool.rst is adjusted to match
formatting for the other man pages. This is for consistency, and also
because it will be helpful in a future patch to automatically check
that the files are synchronised.

The "SEE ALSO" sections of bpftool's manual pages refer to bpf(2),
bpf-helpers(7), then all existing bpftool man pages (save the current
one).
This leads to nearly-identical lists being duplicated in all manual
pages. Ideally, when a new page is created, all lists should be updated
accordingly, but this has led to omissions and inconsistencies multiple
times in the past.
Let's take it out of the RST files and generate the "SEE ALSO" sections
automatically in the Makefile when generating the man pages. The lists
are not really useful in the RST anyway because all other pages are
available in the same directory.
v3:
- Fix conflict with a previous patchset that introduced RST2MAN_OPTS
variable passed to rst2man.
v2:
- Use "echo -n" instead of "printf" in Makefile, to avoid any risk of
passing a format string directly to the command.

There is no support for creating maps of types array-of-map or
hash-of-map in bpftool. This is because the kernel needs an inner_map_fd
to collect metadata on the inner maps to be supported by the new map,
but bpftool does not provide a way to pass this file descriptor.
Add a new optional "inner_map" keyword that can be used to pass a
reference to a map, retrieve a fd to that map, and pass it as the
inner_map_fd.
Add related documentation and bash completion. Note that we can
reference the inner map by its name, meaning we can have several times
the keyword "name" with different meanings (mandatory outer map name,
and possibly a name to use to find the inner_map_fd). The bash
completion will offer it just once, and will not suggest "name" on the
following command:
# bpftool map create /sys/fs/bpf/my_outer_map type hash_of_maps \
inner_map name my_inner_map [TAB]
Fixing that specific case seems too convoluted. Completion will work as
expected, however, if the outer map name comes first and the "inner_map
name ..." is passed second.

Nearly all man pages for bpftool have the same common set of option
flags (--help, --version, --json, --pretty, --debug). The description is
duplicated across all the pages, which is more difficult to maintain if
the description of an option changes. It may also be confusing to sort
out what options are not "common" and should not be copied when creating
new manual pages.
Let's move the description for those common options to a separate file,
which is included with a RST directive when generating the man pages.

To build man pages for bpftool (and for eBPF helper functions), rst2man
can log different levels of information. Let's make it log all levels
to keep the RST files clean.
Doing so, rst2man complains about double colons, used for literal
blocks, that look like underlines for section titles. Let's add the
necessary blank lines.
v2:
- Use "--verbose" instead of "-r 1" (same behaviour but more readable).
- Pass it through a RST2MAN_OPTS variable so we can easily pass other
options too.

Similar to bpf_local_storage for sockets, add local storage for inodes.
The life-cycle of storage is managed with the life-cycle of the inode.
i.e. the storage is destroyed along with the owning inode.
The BPF LSM allocates an __rcu pointer to the bpf_local_storage in the
security blob which are now stackable and can co-exist with other LSMs.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2020-07-04
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
We've added 73 non-merge commits during the last 17 day(s) which contain
a total of 106 files changed, 5233 insertions(+), 1283 deletions(-).
The main changes are:
1) bpftool ability to show PIDs of processes having open file descriptors
for BPF map/program/link/BTF objects, relying on BPF iterator progs
to extract this info efficiently, from Andrii Nakryiko.
2) Addition of BPF iterator progs for dumping TCP and UDP sockets to
seq_files, from Yonghong Song.
3) Support access to BPF map fields in struct bpf_map from programs
through BTF struct access, from Andrey Ignatov.
4) Add a bpf_get_task_stack() helper to be able to dump /proc/*/stack
via seq_file from BPF iterator progs, from Song Liu.
5) Make SO_KEEPALIVE and related options available to bpf_setsockopt()
helper, from Dmitry Yakunin.
6) Optimize BPF sk_storage selection of its caching index, from Martin
KaFai Lau.
7) Removal of redundant synchronize_rcu()s from BPF map destruction which
has been a historic leftover, from Alexei Starovoitov.
8) Several improvements to test_progs to make it easier to create a shell
loop that invokes each test individually which is useful for some CIs,
from Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
9) Fix bpftool prog dump segfault when compiled without skeleton code on
older clang versions, from John Fastabend.
10) Bunch of cleanups and minor improvements, from various others.

This patch implements lookup by name for maps and changes the behavior of
lookups by tag to be consistent with prog subcommands. Similarly to
program subcommands, the show and dump commands will return all maps with
the given name (or tag), whereas other commands will error out if several
maps have the same name (resp. tag).
When a map has BTF info, it is dumped in JSON with available BTF info.
This patch requires that all matched maps have BTF info before switching
the output format to JSON.

libbpf has three levels of priority for output messages: warn, info,
debug. By default, debug output is not printed to the console.
Add a new "--debug" (short name: "-d") option to bpftool to print libbpf
logs for all three levels.
Internally, we simply use the function provided by libbpf to replace the
default printing function by one that prints logs regardless of their
level.
v2:
- Remove the possibility to select the log-levels to use (v1 offered a
combination of "warn", "info" and "debug").
- Rename option and offer a short name: -d|--debug.

Add a new component and command for bpftool, in order to probe the
system to dump a set of eBPF-related parameters so that users can know
what features are available on the system.
Parameters are dumped in plain or JSON output (with -j/-p options).
The current patch introduces probing of one simple parameter:
availability of the bpf() system call. Later commits
will add other probes.
Sample output:
# bpftool feature probe kernel
Scanning system call availability...
bpf() syscall is available
# bpftool --json --pretty feature probe kernel
{
"syscall_config": {
"have_bpf_syscall": true
}
}
The optional "kernel" keyword enforces probing of the current system,
which is the only possible behaviour at this stage. It can be safely
omitted.
The feature comes with the relevant man page, but bash completion will
come in a dedicated commit.
v3:
- Do not probe kernel version. Contrarily to what is written below for
v2, we can have the kernel version retrieved in libbpf instead of
bpftool (in the patch adding probing for program types).
v2:
- Remove C-style macros output from this patch.
- Even though kernel version is no longer needed for testing kprobes
availability, note that we still collect it in this patch so that
bpftool gets able to probe (in next patches) older kernels as well.

not be specified. Support looking up those map types.
Before:
bpftool map create /sys/fs/bpf/q type queue value 4 entries 10 name q
bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/q value 0 1 2 3
bpftool map lookup pinned /sys/fs/bpf/q
Error: did not find key
After:
bpftool map create /sys/fs/bpf/q type queue value 4 entries 10 name q
bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/q value 0 1 2 3
bpftool map lookup pinned /sys/fs/bpf/q
key: value: 00 01 02 03

In order to make life easier for users, bpftool automatically attempts
to mount the BPF virtual file system, if it is not mounted already,
before trying to pin objects in it. Similarly, it attempts to mount
tracefs if necessary before trying to dump the trace pipe to the
console.
While mounting file systems on-the-fly can improve user experience, some
administrators might prefer to avoid that. Let's add an option to block
these mount attempts. Note that it does not prevent automatic mounting
of tracefs by debugfs for the "bpftool prog tracelog" command.

Names used to pin eBPF programs and maps under the eBPF virtual file
system cannot contain a dot character, which is reserved for future
extensions of this file system.
Document this in bpftool man pages to avoid users getting confused if
pinning fails because of a dot.

Add a way of creating maps from user space. The command takes
as parameters most of the attributes of the map creation system
call command. After map is created its pinned to bpffs. This makes
it possible to easily and dynamically (without rebuilding programs)
test various corner cases related to map creation.
Map type names are taken from bpftool's array used for printing.
In general these days we try to make use of libbpf type names, but
there are no map type names in libbpf as of today.
As with most features I add the motivation is testing (offloads) :)

Users of BPF sooner or later discover perf_event_output() helpers
and BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY. Dumping this array type is
not possible, however, we can add simple reading of perf events.
Create a new event_pipe subcommand for maps, this sub command
will only work with BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY maps.
Parts of the code from samples/bpf/trace_output_user.c.

Instead of spelling [hex] BYTES everywhere use DATA as keyword
for generalized value. This will help us keep the messages
concise when longer command are added in the future. It will
also be useful once BTF support comes. We will only have to
change the definition of DATA.

bpftool uses hexadecimal values when it dumps map contents:
# bpftool map dump id 1337
key: ff 13 37 ff value: a1 b2 c3 d4 ff ff ff ff
Found 1 element
In order to lookup or update values with bpftool, the natural reflex is
then to copy and paste the values to the command line, and to try to run
something like:
# bpftool map update id 1337 key ff 13 37 ff \
value 00 00 00 00 00 00 1a 2b
Error: error parsing byte: ff
bpftool complains, because it uses strtoul() with a 0 base to parse the
bytes, and that without a "0x" prefix, the bytes are considered as
decimal values (or even octal if they start with "0").
To feed hexadecimal values instead, one needs to add "0x" prefixes
everywhere necessary:
# bpftool map update id 1337 key 0xff 0x13 0x37 0xff \
value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0x1a 0x2b
To make it easier to use hexadecimal values, add an optional "hex"
keyword to put after "key" or "value" to tell bpftool to consider the
digits as hexadecimal. We can now do:
# bpftool map update id 1337 key hex ff 13 37 ff \
value hex 0 0 0 0 0 0 1a 2b
Without the "hex" keyword, the bytes are still parsed according to
normal integer notation (decimal if no prefix, or hexadecimal or octal
if "0x" or "0" prefix is used, respectively).
The patch also add related documentation and bash completion for the
"hex" keyword.

type BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY, the syntax for the program used as a value
should use the "id|tag|pinned" keywords convention, as used with
