Event Trace is a capability that exposes details about the
asynchronous events, when they are generated, and when their
corresponding software event handler completes execution. These
include:
o Interrupts, including NMI and SMI, including the interrupt
vector when defined.
o Faults, exceptions including the fault vector.
- Page faults additionally include the page fault address,
when in context.
o Event handler returns, including IRET and RSM.
o VM exits and VM entries.¹
- VM exits include the values written to the “exit reason”
and “exit qualification” VMCS fields. INIT and SIPI events.
o TSX aborts, including the abort status returned for the RTM

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark
sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request.
Core
----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the
stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
called from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

Currently, libbpf considers a single routine in .text to be a program. This
is particularly confusing when it comes to library objects - a single routine
meant to be used as an extern will instead be considered a bpf_program.
This patch hides this compatibility behavior behind the pre-existing
SEC_NAME strict mode flag.

Adding bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts function for attaching
kprobe program to multiple functions.
struct bpf_link *
bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts(const struct bpf_program *prog,
const char *pattern,
const struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts *opts);
User can specify functions to attach with 'pattern' argument that
allows wildcards (*?' supported) or provide symbols or addresses
directly through opts argument. These 3 options are mutually
exclusive.
When using symbols or addresses, user can also provide cookie value
for each symbol/address that can be retrieved later in bpf program
with bpf_get_attach_cookie helper.
struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts {
size_t sz;
const char **syms;
const unsigned long *addrs;
const __u64 *cookies;
size_t cnt;
bool retprobe;
size_t :0;
};
Symbols, addresses and cookies are provided through opts object
(syms/addrs/cookies) as array pointers with specified count (cnt).
Each cookie value is paired with provided function address or symbol
with the same array index.
The program can be also attached as return probe if 'retprobe' is set.
For quick usage with NULL opts argument, like:
bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts(prog, "ksys_*", NULL)
the 'prog' will be attached as kprobe to 'ksys_*' functions.
Also adding new program sections for automatic attachment:
kprobe.multi/<symbol_pattern>
kretprobe.multi/<symbol_pattern>
The symbol_pattern is used as 'pattern' argument in
bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts function.

xsk_umem__create() does mmap for fill/comp rings, but xsk_umem__delete()
doesn't do the unmap. This works fine for regular cases, because
xsk_socket__delete() does unmap for the rings. But for the case that
xsk_socket__create_shared() fails, umem rings are not unmapped.
fill_save/comp_save are checked to determine if rings have already be
unmapped by xsk. If fill_save and comp_save are NULL, it means that the
rings have already been used by xsk. Then they are supposed to be
unmapped by xsk_socket__delete(). Otherwise, xsk_umem__delete() does the
unmap.

Allow registering and unregistering custom handlers for BPF program.
This allows user applications and libraries to plug into libbpf's
declarative SEC() definition handling logic. This allows to offload
complex and intricate custom logic into external libraries, but still
provide a great user experience.
One such example is USDT handling library, which has a lot of code and
complexity which doesn't make sense to put into libbpf directly, but it
would be really great for users to be able to specify BPF programs with
something like SEC("usdt/<path-to-binary>:<usdt_provider>:<usdt_name>")
and have correct BPF program type set (BPF_PROGRAM_TYPE_KPROBE, as it is
uprobe) and even support BPF skeleton's auto-attach logic.
In some cases, it might be even good idea to override libbpf's default
handling, like for SEC("perf_event") programs. With custom library, it's
possible to extend logic to support specifying perf event specification
right there in SEC() definition without burdening libbpf with lots of
custom logic or extra library dependecies (e.g., libpfm4). With current
patch it's possible to override libbpf's SEC("perf_event") handling and
specify a completely custom ones.
Further, it's possible to specify a generic fallback handling for any
SEC() that doesn't match any other custom or standard libbpf handlers.
This allows to accommodate whatever legacy use cases there might be, if
necessary.
See doc comments for libbpf_register_prog_handler() and
libbpf_unregister_prog_handler() for detailed semantics.
This patch also bumps libbpf development version to v0.8 and adds new
APIs there.

Allow some BPF program types to support auto-attach only in subste of
cases. Currently, if some BPF program type specifies attach callback, it
is assumed that during skeleton attach operation all such programs
either successfully attach or entire skeleton attachment fails. If some
program doesn't support auto-attachment from skeleton, such BPF program
types shouldn't have attach callback specified.
This is limiting for cases when, depending on how full the SEC("")
definition is, there could either be enough details to support
auto-attach or there might not be and user has to use some specific API
to provide more details at runtime.
One specific example of such desired behavior might be SEC("uprobe"). If
it's specified as just uprobe auto-attach isn't possible. But if it's
SEC("uprobe/<some_binary>:<some_func>") then there are enough details to
support auto-attach. Note that there is a somewhat subtle difference
between auto-attach behavior of BPF skeleton and using "generic"
bpf_program__attach(prog) (which uses the same attach handlers under the
cover). Skeleton allow some programs within bpf_object to not have
auto-attach implemented and doesn't treat that as an error. Instead such
BPF programs are just skipped during skeleton's (optional) attach step.
bpf_program__attach(), on the other hand, is called when user *expects*
auto-attach to work, so if specified program doesn't implement or
doesn't support auto-attach functionality, that will be treated as an
error.
Another improvement to the way libbpf is handling SEC()s would be to not
require providing dummy kernel function name for kprobe. Currently,
SEC("kprobe/whatever") is necessary even if actual kernel function is
determined by user at runtime and bpf_program__attach_kprobe() is used
to specify it. With changes in this patch, it's possible to support both
SEC("kprobe") and SEC("kprobe/<actual_kernel_function"), while only in
the latter case auto-attach will be performed. In the former one, such
kprobe will be skipped during skeleton attach operation.

The page_cnt parameter is used to specify the number of memory pages
allocated for each per-CPU buffer, it must be non-zero and a power of 2.
Currently, the __perf_buffer__new() function attempts to validate that
the page_cnt is a power of 2 but forgets checking for the case where
page_cnt is zero, we can fix it by replacing 'page_cnt & (page_cnt - 1)'
with 'page_cnt == 0 || (page_cnt & (page_cnt - 1))'.
If so, we also don't need to add a check in perf_buffer__new_v0_6_0() to
make sure that page_cnt is non-zero and the check for zero in
perf_buffer__new_raw_v0_6_0() can also be removed.
The code will be cleaner and more readable.

Currently if a declaration appears in the BTF before the definition, the
definition is dumped as a conflicting name, e.g.:
$ bpftool btf dump file vmlinux format raw | grep "'unix_sock'"
[81287] FWD 'unix_sock' fwd_kind=struct
[89336] STRUCT 'unix_sock' size=1024 vlen=14
$ bpftool btf dump file vmlinux format c | grep "struct unix_sock"
struct unix_sock;
struct unix_sock___2 { <--- conflict, the "___2" is unexpected
struct unix_sock___2 *unix_sk;
This causes a compilation error if the dump output is used as a header file.
Fix it by skipping declaration when counting duplicated type names.

When a BPF map of type BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY doesn't have the
max_entries parameter set, the map will be created with max_entries set
to the number of available CPUs. When we try to reuse such a pinned map,
map_is_reuse_compat will return false, as max_entries in the map
definition differs from max_entries of the existing map, causing the
following error:
libbpf: couldn't reuse pinned map at '/sys/fs/bpf/m_logging': parameter mismatch
Fix this by overwriting max_entries in the map definition. For this to
work, we need to do this in bpf_object__create_maps, before calling
bpf_object__reuse_map.
