Björn Töpel says:

====================
This series contain one non-critical fix, support for far jumps, and
some optimizations for the BPF JIT.

Previously, the JIT only supported 12b branch targets for conditional
branches, and 21b for unconditional branches. Starting with this
series, 32b branching is supported.

As part of supporting far jumps, branch relaxation was introduced. The
idea is to start with a pessimistic jump (e.g. auipc/jalr) and for
each pass the JIT will have an opportunity to pick a better
instruction (e.g. jal) and shrink the image. Instead of two passes,
the JIT requires more passes. It typically converges after 3 passes.

The optimizations mentioned in the subject are for calls and tail
calls. In the tail call generation we can save one instruction by
using the offset in jalr. Calls are optimized by doing (auipc)/jal(r)
relative jumps instead of loading the entire absolute address and
doing jalr. This required that the JIT image allocator was made RISC-V
specific, so we can ensure that the JIT image and the kernel text are
in range (32b).

The last two patches of the series is not critical to the series, but
are two UAPI build issues for BPF events. A closer look from the
RV-folks would be much appreciated.

The test_bpf.ko module, selftests/bpf/test_verifier and
selftests/seccomp/seccomp_bpf pass all tests.

RISC-V is still missing proper kprobe and tracepoint support, so a lot
of BPF selftests cannot be run.

Instead of all or nothing approach of overriding Kconfig file location, allow
to extend it with extra values and override chosen subset of values though
optional user-provided extra config, passed as a string through open options'
.kconfig option. If same config key is present in both user-supplied config
and Kconfig, user-supplied one wins. This allows applications to more easily
test various conditions despite host kernel's real configuration. If all of
BPF object's __kconfig externs are satisfied from user-supplied config, system
Kconfig won't be read at all.

There are cases in which BPF resource (program, map, etc) has to outlive
userspace program that "installed" it in the system in the first place.
When BPF program is attached, libbpf returns bpf_link object, which
is supposed to be destroyed after no longer necessary through
bpf_link__destroy() API. Currently, bpf_link destruction causes both automatic
detachment and frees up any resources allocated to for bpf_link in-memory
representation. This is inconvenient for the case described above because of
coupling of detachment and resource freeing.

This patch introduces bpf_link__disconnect() API call, which marks bpf_link as
disconnected from its underlying BPF resouces. This means that when bpf_link
is destroyed later, all its memory resources will be freed, but BPF resource
itself won't be detached.

This design allows to follow strict and resource-leak-free design by default,
while giving easy and straightforward way for user code to opt for keeping BPF
resource attached beyond lifetime of a bpf_link. For some BPF programs (i.e.,
FS-based tracepoints, kprobes, raw tracepoint, etc), user has to make sure to
pin BPF program to prevent kernel to automatically detach it on process exit.
This should typically be achived by pinning BPF program (or map in some cases)
in BPF FS.

Probably the single most common error newcomers to XDP are stumped by is
the 'permission denied' error they get when trying to load their program
and 'ulimit -l' is set too low. For examples, see [0], [1].

Since the error code is UAPI, we can't change that. Instead, this patch
adds a few heuristics in libbpf and outputs an additional hint if they are
met: If an EPERM is returned on map create or program load, and geteuid()
shows we are root, and the current RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is not infinity, we
output a hint about raising 'ulimit -l' as an additional log line.

When attaching XDP programs, userspace can set flags to request the attach
mode (generic/SKB mode, driver mode or hw offloaded mode). If no such flags
are requested, the kernel will attempt to attach in driver mode, and then
silently fall back to SKB mode if this fails.

The silent fallback is a major source of user confusion, as users will try
to load a program on a device without XDP support, and instead of an error
they will get the silent fallback behaviour, not notice, and then wonder
why performance is not what they were expecting.

In an attempt to combat this, let's switch all the samples to default to
explicitly requesting driver-mode attach. As part of this, ensure that all
the userspace utilities have a switch to enable SKB mode. For those that
have a switch to request driver mode, keep it but turn it into a no-op.

Andrii Nakryiko says:

====================
It's often important for BPF program to know kernel version or some specific
config values (e.g., CONFIG_HZ to convert jiffies to seconds) and change or
adjust program logic based on their values. As of today, any such need has to
be resolved by recompiling BPF program for specific kernel and kernel
configuration. In practice this is usually achieved by using BCC and its
embedded LLVM/Clang. With such set up #ifdef CONFIG_XXX and similar
compile-time constructs allow to deal with kernel varieties.

With CO-RE (Compile Once – Run Everywhere) approach, this is not an option,
unfortunately. All such logic variations have to be done as a normal
C language constructs (i.e., if/else, variables, etc), not a preprocessor
directives. This patch series add support for such advanced scenarios through
C extern variables. These extern variables will be recognized by libbpf and
supplied through extra .extern internal map, similarly to global data. This
.extern map is read-only, which allows BPF verifier to track its content
precisely as constants. That gives an opportunity to have pre-compiled BPF
program, which can potentially use BPF functionality (e.g., BPF helpers) or
kernel features (types, fields, etc), that are available only on a subset of
targeted kernels, while effectively eleminating (through verifier's dead code
detection) such unsupported functionality for other kernels (typically, older
versions). Patch #3 explicitly tests a scenario of using unsupported BPF
helper, to validate the approach.

This patch set heavily relies on BTF type information emitted by compiler for
each extern variable declaration. Based on specific types, libbpf does strict
checks of config data values correctness. See patch #1 for details.

Outline of the patch set:
- patch #1 does a small clean up of internal map names contants;
- patch #2 adds all of the libbpf internal machinery for externs support,
  including setting up BTF information for .extern data section;
- patch #3 adds support for .extern into BPF skeleton;
- patch #4 adds externs selftests, as well as enhances test_skeleton.c test to
  validate mmap()-ed .extern datasection functionality.

v3->v4:
- clean up copyrights and rebase onto latest skeleton patches (Alexei);

v2->v3:
- truncate too long strings (Alexei);
- clean ups, adding comments (Alexei);

v1->v2:
- use BTF type information for externs (Alexei);
- add strings support;
- add BPF skeleton support for .extern.
