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 -&gt; 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 -&gt; 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.

Replace struct bpf_tramp_progs with struct bpf_tramp_links to collect
struct bpf_tramp_link(s) for a trampoline.  struct bpf_tramp_link
extends bpf_link to act as a linked list node.

arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline() accepts a struct bpf_tramp_links to
collects all bpf_tramp_link(s) that a trampoline should call.

Change BPF trampoline and bpf_struct_ops to pass bpf_tramp_links
instead of bpf_tramp_progs.

<title>bpf: Add multi kprobe link</title>

Adding new link type BPF_LINK_TYPE_KPROBE_MULTI that attaches kprobe
program through fprobe API.

The fprobe API allows to attach probe on multiple functions at once
very fast, because it works on top of ftrace. On the other hand this
limits the probe point to the function entry or return.

The kprobe program gets the same pt_regs input ctx as when it's attached
through the perf API.

Adding new attach type BPF_TRACE_KPROBE_MULTI that allows attachment
kprobe to multiple function with new link.

User provides array of addresses or symbols with count to attach the
kprobe program to. The new link_create uapi interface looks like:

  struct {
          __u32           flags;
          __u32           cnt;
          __aligned_u64   syms;
          __aligned_u64   addrs;
  } kprobe_multi;

The flags field allows single BPF_TRACE_KPROBE_MULTI bit to create
return multi kprobe.

<title>bpf: Add bloom filter map implementation</title>

<id>9330986c03006ab1d33d243b7cfe598a7a3c1baa</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds the kernel-side changes for the implementation of
a bpf bloom filter map.

The bloom filter map supports peek (determining whether an element
is present in the map) and push (adding an element to the map)
operations.These operations are exposed to userspace applications
through the already existing syscalls in the following way:

BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM -&gt; peek
BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM -&gt; push

The bloom filter map does not have keys, only values. In light of
this, the bloom filter map's API matches that of queue stack maps:
user applications use BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM/BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM
which correspond internally to bpf_map_peek_elem/bpf_map_push_elem,
and bpf programs must use the bpf_map_peek_elem and bpf_map_push_elem
APIs to query or add an element to the bloom filter map. When the
bloom filter map is created, it must be created with a key_size of 0.

For updates, the user will pass in the element to add to the map
as the value, with a NULL key. For lookups, the user will pass in the
element to query in the map as the value, with a NULL key. In the
verifier layer, this requires us to modify the argument type of
a bloom filter's BPF_FUNC_map_peek_elem call to ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE;
as well, in the syscall layer, we need to copy over the user value
so that in bpf_map_peek_elem, we know which specific value to query.

A few things to please take note of:
 * If there are any concurrent lookups + updates, the user is
responsible for synchronizing this to ensure no false negative lookups
occur.
 * The number of hashes to use for the bloom filter is configurable from
userspace. If no number is specified, the default used will be 5 hash
functions. The benchmarks later in this patchset can help compare the
performance of using different number of hashes on different entry
sizes. In general, using more hashes decreases both the false positive
rate and the speed of a lookup.
 * Deleting an element in the bloom filter map is not supported.
 * The bloom filter map may be used as an inner map.
 * The "max_entries" size that is specified at map creation time is used
to approximate a reasonable bitmap size for the bloom filter, and is not
otherwise strictly enforced. If the user wishes to insert more entries
into the bloom filter than "max_entries", they may do so but they should
be aware that this may lead to a higher false positive rate.

<title>bpf: Move BPF_MAP_TYPE for INODE_STORAGE and TASK_STORAGE outside of CONFIG_NET</title>

bpf_types.h has BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE and BPF_MAP_TYPE_TASK_STORAGE
declared inside #ifdef CONFIG_NET although they are built regardless of
CONFIG_NET. So, when CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL &amp;&amp; !CONFIG_NET, they are built
without the declarations leading to spurious build failures and not
registered to bpf_map_types making them unavailable.

Fix it by moving the BPF_MAP_TYPE for the two map types outside of
CONFIG_NET.

Introduce a new type of BPF link - BPF perf link. This brings perf_event-based
BPF program attachments (perf_event, tracepoints, kprobes, and uprobes) into
the common BPF link infrastructure, allowing to list all active perf_event
based attachments, auto-detaching BPF program from perf_event when link's FD
is closed, get generic BPF link fdinfo/get_info functionality.

BPF_LINK_CREATE command expects perf_event's FD as target_fd. No extra flags
are currently supported.

Force-detaching and atomic BPF program updates are not yet implemented, but
with perf_event-based BPF links we now have common framework for this without
the need to extend ioctl()-based perf_event interface.

One interesting consideration is a new value for bpf_attach_type, which
BPF_LINK_CREATE command expects. Generally, it's either 1-to-1 mapping from
bpf_attach_type to bpf_prog_type, or many-to-1 mapping from a subset of
bpf_attach_types to one bpf_prog_type (e.g., see BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_SKB or
BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK). In this case, though, we have three different
program types (KPROBE, TRACEPOINT, PERF_EVENT) using the same perf_event-based
mechanism, so it's many bpf_prog_types to one bpf_attach_type. I chose to
define a single BPF_PERF_EVENT attach type for all of them and adjust
link_create()'s logic for checking correspondence between attach type and
program type.

The alternative would be to define three new attach types (e.g., BPF_KPROBE,
BPF_TRACEPOINT, and BPF_PERF_EVENT), but that seemed like unnecessary overkill
and BPF_KPROBE will cause naming conflicts with BPF_KPROBE() macro, defined by
libbpf. I chose to not do this to avoid unnecessary proliferation of
bpf_attach_type enum values and not have to deal with naming conflicts.

Introduce a new type of BPF link - BPF perf link. This brings perf_event-based
BPF program attachments (perf_event, tracepoints, kprobes, and uprobes) into
the common BPF link infrastructure, allowing to list all active perf_event
based attachments, auto-detaching BPF program from perf_event when link's FD
is closed, get generic BPF link fdinfo/get_info functionality.

BPF_LINK_CREATE command expects perf_event's FD as target_fd. No extra flags
are currently supported.

is out of bounds. The obvious candidate is bpf_link_type_strs[BPF_LINK_TYPE_XDP] with
BPF_LINK_TYPE_XDP == 6. It turns out that BPF_LINK_TYPE_XDP is missing from bpf_types.h

Add placeholders for bpf_sys_bpf() helper and new program type.
Make sure to check that expected_attach_type is zero for future extensibility.
Allow tracing helper functions to be used in this program type, since they will
only execute from user context via bpf_prog_test_run.

<title>bpf: Clean up sockmap related Kconfigs</title>

As suggested by John, clean up sockmap related Kconfigs:

Reduce the scope of CONFIG_BPF_STREAM_PARSER down to TCP stream
parser, to reflect its name.

Make the rest sockmap code simply depend on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL
and CONFIG_INET, the latter is still needed at this point because
of TCP/UDP proto update. And leave CONFIG_NET_SOCK_MSG untouched,
as it is used by non-sockmap cases.
