Remove a bunch of high-level bpf_object/bpf_map/bpf_program related
APIs. All the APIs related to private per-object/map/prog state,
program preprocessing callback, and generally everything multi-instance
related is removed in a separate patch.

BPF type compatibility checks (bpf_core_types_are_compat()) are
currently duplicated between kernel and user space. That's a historical
artifact more than intentional doing and can lead to subtle bugs where
one implementation is adjusted but another is forgotten.
That happened with the enum64 work, for example, where the libbpf side
was changed (commit 23b2a3a8f63a ("libbpf: Add enum64 relocation
support")) to use the btf_kind_core_compat() helper function but the
kernel side was not (commit 6089fb325cf7 ("bpf: Add btf enum64
support")).
This patch addresses both the duplication issue, by merging both
implementations and moving them into relo_core.c, and fixes the alluded
to kind check (by giving preference to libbpf's already adjusted logic).
For discussion of the topic, please refer to:

- limited libbpf recursion limit to 32
- changed name to __bpf_core_types_are_compat

Andrii reported a bug with the following information:

2860 enum64_placeholder_id = btf__add_int(btf, "enum64_placeholder", 1, 0);
>>> CID 394804: Control flow issues (NO_EFFECT)
>>> This less-than-zero comparison of an unsigned value is never true. "enum64_placeholder_id < 0U".
2861 if (enum64_placeholder_id < 0)
2862 return enum64_placeholder_id;
2863 ...
Here enum64_placeholder_id declared as '__u32' so enum64_placeholder_id < 0
is always false. Declare enum64_placeholder_id as 'int' in order to capture
the potential error properly.

Fix libbpf's bpf_program__attach_uprobe() logic of determining
function's *file offset* (which is what kernel is actually expecting)
when attaching uprobe/uretprobe by function name. Previously calculation
was determining virtual address offset relative to base load address,
which (offset) is not always the same as file offset (though very
frequently it is which is why this went unnoticed for a while).

When old kernel does not support enum64 but user space btf
contains non-zero enum kflag or enum64, libbpf needs to
do proper sanitization so modified btf can be accepted
by the kernel.
Sanitization for enum kflag can be achieved by clearing
the kflag bit. For enum64, the type is replaced with an
union of integer member types and the integer member size
must be smaller than enum64 size. If such an integer
type cannot be found, a new type is created and used
for union members.

Add high-level API wrappers for most common and typical BPF map
operations that works directly on instances of struct bpf_map * (so
you don't have to call bpf_map__fd()) and validate key/value size
expectations.
These helpers require users to specify key (and value, where
appropriate) sizes when performing lookup/update/delete/etc. This forces
user to actually think and validate (for themselves) those. This is
a good thing as user is expected by kernel to implicitly provide correct
key/value buffer sizes and kernel will just read/write necessary amount
of data. If it so happens that user doesn't set up buffers correctly
(which bit people for per-CPU maps especially) kernel either randomly
overwrites stack data or return -EFAULT, depending on user's luck and
circumstances. These high-level APIs are meant to prevent such
unpleasant and hard to debug bugs.
This patch also adds bpf_map_delete_elem_flags() low-level API and
requires passing flags to bpf_map__delete_elem() API for consistency
across all similar APIs, even though currently kernel doesn't expect
any extra flags for BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM operation.
List of map operations that get these high-level APIs:
- bpf_map_lookup_elem;
- bpf_map_update_elem;
- bpf_map_delete_elem;
- bpf_map_lookup_and_delete_elem;
- bpf_map_get_next_key.

Kernel imposes a pretty particular restriction on ringbuf map size. It
has to be a power-of-2 multiple of page size. While generally this isn't
hard for user to satisfy, sometimes it's impossible to do this
declaratively in BPF source code or just plain inconvenient to do at
runtime.
One such example might be BPF libraries that are supposed to work on
different architectures, which might not agree on what the common page
size is.
Let libbpf find the right size for user instead, if it turns out to not
satisfy kernel requirements. If user didn't set size at all, that's most
probably a mistake so don't upsize such zero size to one full page,
though. Also we need to be careful about not overflowing __u32
max_entries.

Add bpf_map__set_autocreate() API that allows user to opt-out from
libbpf automatically creating BPF map during BPF object load.
This is a useful feature when building CO-RE-enabled BPF application
that takes advantage of some new-ish BPF map type (e.g., socket-local
storage) if kernel supports it, but otherwise uses some alternative way
(e.g., extra HASH map). In such case, being able to disable the creation
of a map that kernel doesn't support allows to successfully create and
load BPF object file with all its other maps and programs.
It's still up to user to make sure that no "live" code in any of their BPF
programs are referencing such map instance, which can be achieved by
guarding such code with CO-RE relocation check or by using .rodata
global variables.
If user fails to properly guard such code to turn it into "dead code",
libbpf will helpfully post-process BPF verifier log and will provide
more meaningful error and map name that needs to be guarded properly. As
such, instead of:
; value = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&missing_map, &zero);
4: (85) call unknown#2001000000
invalid func unknown#2001000000
... user will see:
; value = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&missing_map, &zero);
4: <invalid BPF map reference>
BPF map 'missing_map' is referenced but wasn't created

it is expected that user will specify BTF target programmatically at

not, libbpf will report this as an error.

In a lot of cases the target of kprobe/kretprobe, tracepoint, raw
tracepoint, etc BPF program might not be known at the compilation time
and will be discovered at runtime. This was always a supported case by
libbpf, with APIs like bpf_program__attach_{kprobe,tracepoint,etc}()
accepting full target definition, regardless of what was defined in
SEC() definition in BPF source code.
Unfortunately, up till now libbpf still enforced users to specify at
least something for the fake target, e.g., SEC("kprobe/whatever"), which
is cumbersome and somewhat misleading.
This patch allows target-less SEC() definitions for basic tracing BPF
program types:
- kprobe/kretprobe;
- multi-kprobe/multi-kretprobe;
- tracepoints;
- raw tracepoints.
Such target-less SEC() definitions are meant to specify declaratively
proper BPF program type only. Attachment of them will have to be handled
programmatically using correct APIs. As such, skeleton's auto-attachment
of such BPF programs is skipped and generic bpf_program__attach() will
fail, if attempted, due to the lack of enough target information.

Teach libbpf to post-process BPF verifier log on BPF program load
failure and detect known error patterns to provide user with more
context.
Currently there is one such common situation: an "unguarded" failed BPF
CO-RE relocation. While failing CO-RE relocation is expected, it is
expected to be property guarded in BPF code such that BPF verifier
always eliminates BPF instructions corresponding to such failed CO-RE
relos as dead code. In cases when user failed to take such precautions,
BPF verifier provides the best log it can:
123: (85) call unknown#195896080
invalid func unknown#195896080
Such incomprehensible log error is due to libbpf "poisoning" BPF
instruction that corresponds to failed CO-RE relocation by replacing it
with invalid `call 0xbad2310` instruction (195896080 == 0xbad2310 reads
"bad relo" if you squint hard enough).
Luckily, libbpf has all the necessary information to look up CO-RE
relocation that failed and provide more human-readable description of
what's going on:
5: <invalid CO-RE relocation>
failed to resolve CO-RE relocation <byte_off> [6] struct task_struct___bad.fake_field_subprog (0:2 @ offset 8)
This hopefully makes it much easier to understand what's wrong with
user's BPF program without googling magic constants.
This BPF verifier log fixup is setup to be extensible and is going to be
used for at least one other upcoming feature of libbpf in follow up patches.
Libbpf is parsing lines of BPF verifier log starting from the very end.
Currently it processes up to 10 lines of code looking for familiar
patterns. This avoids wasting lots of CPU processing huge verifier logs
(especially for log_level=2 verbosity level). Actual verification error
should normally be found in last few lines, so this should work
reliably.
If libbpf needs to expand log beyond available log_buf_size, it
truncates the end of the verifier log. Given verifier log normally ends
with something like:
processed 2 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 0 total_states 0 peak_states 0 mark_read 0
... truncating this on program load error isn't too bad (end user can
always increase log size, if it needs to get complete log).

Previously, libbpf recorded CO-RE relocations with insns_idx resolved
according to finalized subprog locations (which are appended at the end
of entry BPF program) to simplify the job of light skeleton generator.
This is necessary because once subprogs' instructions are appended to
main entry BPF program all the subprog instruction indices are shifted
and that shift is different for each entry (main) BPF program, so it's
generally impossible to map final absolute insn_idx of the finalized BPF
program to their original locations inside subprograms.
This information is now going to be used not only during light skeleton
generation, but also to map absolute instruction index to subprog's
instruction and its corresponding CO-RE relocation. So start recording
these relocations always, not just when obj->gen_loader is set.
This information is going to be freed at the end of bpf_object__load()
step, as before (but this can change in the future if there will be
a need for this information post load step).

Instead of using ELF section names as a joining key between .BTF.ext and
corresponding BPF programs, pre-build .BTF.ext section number to ELF
section index mapping during bpf_object__open() and use it later for
matching .BTF.ext information (func/line info or CO-RE relocations) to
their respective BPF programs and subprograms.
This simplifies corresponding joining logic and let's libbpf do
manipulations with BPF program's ELF sections like dropping leading '?'
character for non-autoloaded programs. Original joining logic in
bpf_object__relocate_core() (see relevant comment that's now removed)
was never elegant, so it's a good improvement regardless. But it also
avoids unnecessary internal assumptions about preserving original ELF
section name as BPF program's section name (which was broken when
SEC("?abc") support was added).

Teach bpf_link_create() to fallback to bpf_raw_tracepoint_open() on
older kernels for programs that are attachable through
BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN. This makes bpf_link_create() more unified and
convenient interface for creating bpf_link-based attachments.
With this approach end users can just use bpf_link_create() for
tp_btf/fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm program attachments without needing to
care about kernel support, as libbpf will handle this transparently. On
the other hand, as newer features (like BPF cookie) are added to
LINK_CREATE interface, they will be readily usable though the same
bpf_link_create() API without any major refactoring from user's
standpoint.
bpf_program__attach_btf_id() is now using bpf_link_create() internally
as well and will take advantaged of this unified interface when BPF
cookie is added for fentry/fexit.
Doing proactive feature detection of LINK_CREATE support for
fentry/tp_btf/etc is quite involved. It requires parsing vmlinux BTF,
determining some stable and guaranteed to be in all kernels versions
target BTF type (either raw tracepoint or fentry target function),
actually attaching this program and thus potentially affecting the
performance of the host kernel briefly, etc. So instead we are taking
much simpler "lazy" approach of falling back to
bpf_raw_tracepoint_open() call only if initial LINK_CREATE command
fails. For modern kernels this will mean zero added overhead, while
older kernels will incur minimal overhead with a single fast-failing
LINK_CREATE call.

Establish SEC("?abc") naming convention (i.e., adding question mark in
front of otherwise normal section name) that allows to set corresponding
program's autoload property to false. This is effectively just
a declarative way to do bpf_program__set_autoload(prog, false).
Having a way to do this declaratively in BPF code itself is useful and
convenient for various scenarios. E.g., for testing, when BPF object
consists of multiple independent BPF programs that each needs to be
tested separately. Opting out all of them by default and then setting
autoload to true for just one of them at a time simplifies testing code
(see next patch for few conversions in BPF selftests taking advantage of
this new feature).
Another real-world use case is in libbpf-tools for cases when different
BPF programs have to be picked depending on particulars of the host
kernel due to various incompatible changes (like kernel function renames
or signature change, or to pick kprobe vs fentry depending on
corresponding kernel support for the latter). Marking all the different
BPF program candidates as non-autoloaded declaratively makes this more
obvious in BPF source code and allows simpler code in user-space code.
When BPF program marked as SEC("?abc") it is otherwise treated just like
SEC("abc") and bpf_program__section_name() reported will be "abc".

Background:
Libbpf automatically replaces calls to BPF bpf_probe_read_{kernel,user}
[_str]() helpers with bpf_probe_read[_str](), if libbpf detects that
kernel doesn't support new APIs. Specifically, libbpf invokes the
probe_kern_probe_read_kernel function to load a small eBPF program into
the kernel in which bpf_probe_read_kernel API is invoked and lets the
kernel checks whether the new API is valid. If the loading fails, libbpf
considers the new API invalid and replaces it with the old API.
static int probe_kern_probe_read_kernel(void)
{
struct bpf_insn insns[] = {
BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_10), /* r1 = r10 (fp) */
BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_1, -8), /* r1 += -8 */
BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_2, 8), /* r2 = 8 */
BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_3, 0), /* r3 = 0 */
BPF_RAW_INSN(BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL, 0, 0, 0, BPF_FUNC_probe_read_kernel),
BPF_EXIT_INSN(),
};
int fd, insn_cnt = ARRAY_SIZE(insns);
fd = bpf_prog_load(BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE, NULL,
"GPL", insns, insn_cnt, NULL);
return probe_fd(fd);
}
Bug:
On older kernel versions [0], the kernel checks whether the version
number provided in the bpf syscall, matches the LINUX_VERSION_CODE.
If not matched, the bpf syscall fails. eBPF However, the
probe_kern_probe_read_kernel code does not set the kernel version
number provided to the bpf syscall, which causes the loading process
alwasys fails for old versions. It means that libbpf will replace the
new API with the old one even the kernel supports the new one.
Solution:
After a discussion in [1], the solution is using BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT
program type instead of BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE because kernel does not
enfoce version check for tracepoint programs. I test the patch in old
kernels (4.18 and 4.19) and it works well.

During BPF static linking, all the ELF relocations and .BTF.ext
information (including CO-RE relocations) are preserved for __weak
subprograms that were logically overriden by either previous weak
subprogram instance or by corresponding "strong" (non-weak) subprogram.
This is just how native user-space linkers work, nothing new.
But libbpf is over-zealous when processing CO-RE relocation to error out
when CO-RE relocation belonging to such eliminated weak subprogram is
encountered. Instead of erroring out on this expected situation, log
debug-level message and skip the relocation.

During BTF fix up for global variables, global variable can be global
weak and will have STB_WEAK binding in ELF. Support such global
variables in addition to non-weak ones.
This is not the problem when using BPF static linking, as BPF static
linker "fixes up" BTF during generation so that libbpf doesn't have to
do it anymore during bpf_object__open(), which led to this not being
noticed for a while, along with a pretty rare (currently) use of __weak
variables and maps.

For uprobe auto-attach, the parsing can be simplified for the SEC()
name to a single sscanf(); the return value of the sscanf can then
be used to distinguish between sections that simply specify
"u[ret]probe" (and thus cannot auto-attach), those that specify
"u[ret]probe/binary_path:function+offset" etc.

In the process of doing path resolution for uprobe attach, libraries are
identified by matching a ".so" substring in the binary_path.
This matches a lot of patterns that do not conform to library.so[.version]
format, so instead match a ".so" _suffix_, and if that fails match a
".so." substring for the versioned library case.

Wire up libbpf USDT support APIs without yet implementing all the
nitty-gritty details of USDT discovery, spec parsing, and BPF map
initialization.
User-visible user-space API is simple and is conceptually very similar
to uprobe API.
bpf_program__attach_usdt() API allows to programmatically attach given
BPF program to a USDT, specified through binary path (executable or
shared lib), USDT provider and name. Also, just like in uprobe case, PID
filter is specified (0 - self, -1 - any process, or specific PID).
Optionally, USDT cookie value can be specified. Such single API
invocation will try to discover given USDT in specified binary and will
use (potentially many) BPF uprobes to attach this program in correct
locations.
Just like any bpf_program__attach_xxx() APIs, bpf_link is returned that
represents this attachment. It is a virtual BPF link that doesn't have
direct kernel object, as it can consist of multiple underlying BPF
uprobe links. As such, attachment is not atomic operation and there can
be brief moment when some USDT call sites are attached while others are
still in the process of attaching. This should be taken into
consideration by user. But bpf_program__attach_usdt() guarantees that
in the case of success all USDT call sites are successfully attached, or
all the successfuly attachments will be detached as soon as some USDT
call sites failed to be attached. So, in theory, there could be cases of
failed bpf_program__attach_usdt() call which did trigger few USDT
program invocations. This is unavoidable due to multi-uprobe nature of
USDT and has to be handled by user, if it's important to create an
illusion of atomicity.
USDT BPF programs themselves are marked in BPF source code as either
SEC("usdt"), in which case they won't be auto-attached through
skeleton's <skel>__attach() method, or it can have a full definition,
which follows the spirit of fully-specified uprobes:
SEC("usdt/<path>:<provider>:<name>"). In the latter case skeleton's
attach method will attempt auto-attachment. Similarly, generic
bpf_program__attach() will have enought information to go off of for
parameterless attachment.
USDT BPF programs are actually uprobes, and as such for kernel they are
marked as BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE.
Another part of this patch is USDT-related feature probing:
- BPF cookie support detection from user-space;
- detection of kernel support for auto-refcounting of USDT semaphore.
The latter is optional. If kernel doesn't support such feature and USDT
doesn't rely on USDT semaphores, no error is returned. But if libbpf
detects that USDT requires setting semaphores and kernel doesn't support
this, libbpf errors out with explicit pr_warn() message. Libbpf doesn't
support poking process's memory directly to increment semaphore value,
like BCC does on legacy kernels, due to inherent raciness and danger of
such process memory manipulation. Libbpf let's kernel take care of this
properly or gives up.
Logistically, all the extra USDT-related infrastructure of libbpf is put
into a separate usdt.c file and abstracted behind struct usdt_manager.
Each bpf_object has lazily-initialized usdt_manager pointer, which is
only instantiated if USDT programs are attempted to be attached. Closing
BPF object frees up usdt_manager resources. usdt_manager keeps track of
USDT spec ID assignment and few other small things.
Subsequent patches will fill out remaining missing pieces of USDT
initialization and setup logic.

attach_probe selftest fails on Debian-based distros with `failed to
resolve full path for 'libc.so.6'`. The reason is that these distros
embraced multiarch to the point where even for the "main" architecture
they store libc in /lib/<triple>.
This is configured in /etc/ld.so.conf and in theory it's possible to
replicate the loader's parsing and processing logic in libbpf, however
a much simpler solution is to just enumerate the known library paths.

Now that u[ret]probes can use name-based specification, it makes
sense to add support for auto-attach based on SEC() definition.
The format proposed is
SEC("u[ret]probe/binary:[raw_offset|[function_name[+offset]]")
For example, to trace malloc() in libc:
SEC("uprobe/libc.so.6:malloc")
...or to trace function foo2 in /usr/bin/foo:
SEC("uprobe//usr/bin/foo:foo2")
Auto-attach is done for all tasks (pid -1). prog can be an absolute
path or simply a program/library name; in the latter case, we use
PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH to resolve the full path, falling back to
standard locations (/usr/bin:/usr/sbin or /usr/lib64:/usr/lib) if
the file is not found via environment-variable specified locations.

kprobe attach is name-based, using lookups of kallsyms to translate
a function name to an address. Currently uprobe attach is done
via an offset value as described in [1]. Extend uprobe opts
for attach to include a function name which can then be converted
into a uprobe-friendly offset. The calcualation is done in
several steps:
1. First, determine the symbol address using libelf; this gives us
the offset as reported by objdump
2. If the function is a shared library function - and the binary
provided is a shared library - no further work is required;
the address found is the required address
3. Finally, if the function is local, subtract the base address
associated with the object, retrieved from ELF program headers.
The resultant value is then added to the func_offset value passed
in to specify the uprobe attach address. So specifying a func_offset
of 0 along with a function name "printf" will attach to printf entry.
The modes of operation supported are then
1. to attach to a local function in a binary; function "foo1" in
"/usr/bin/foo"
2. to attach to a shared library function in a shared library -
function "malloc" in libc.

bpf_program__attach_uprobe_opts() requires a binary_path argument
specifying binary to instrument. Supporting simply specifying
"libc.so.6" or "foo" should be possible too.
Library search checks LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then /usr/lib64, /usr/lib.
This allows users to run BPF programs prefixed with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path2/lib while still searching standard locations.
Similarly for non .so files, we check PATH and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.
Path determination will be useful for auto-attach of BPF uprobe programs
using SEC() definition.
