[ Upstream commit 7c27a26e1ed5a7dd709aa19685d2c98f64e1cf0c ]

There are some powerpc selftests, as tm/tm-unavailable, that run for a long
period (&gt;120 seconds), and if it is interrupted, as pressing CRTL-C
(SIGINT), the foreground process (harness) dies but the child process and
threads continue to execute (with PPID = 1 now) in background.

In this case, you'd think the whole test exited, but there are remaining
threads and processes being executed in background. Sometimes these
zombies processes are doing annoying things, as consuming the whole CPU or
dumping things to STDOUT.

This patch fixes this problem by attaching an empty signal handler to
SIGINT in the harness process. This handler will interrupt (EINTR) the
parent process waitpid() call, letting the code to follow through the
normal flow, which will kill all the processes in the child process group.

This patch also fixes a typo.

<title>bpf, sockmap: fix cork timeout for select due to epipe</title>

I ran into the same issue as a009f1f396d0 ("selftests/bpf:
test_sockmap, timing improvements") where I had a broken
pipe error on the socket due to remote end timing out on
select and then shutting down it's sockets while the other
side was still sending. We may need to do a bigger rework
in general on the test_sockmap.c, but for now increase it
to a more suitable timeout.

pull-request: bpf 2018-08-05

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Fix bpftool percpu_array dump by using correct roundup to next
   multiple of 8 for the value size, from Yonghong.

2) Fix in AF_XDP's __xsk_rcv_zc() to not returning frames back to
   allocator since driver will recycle frame anyway in case of an
   error, from Jakub.

3) Fix up BPF test_lwt_seg6local test cases to final iproute2
   syntax, from Mathieu.

The shell file for test_lwt_seg6local contains an early iproute2 syntax
for installing a seg6local End.BPF route. iproute2 support for this
feature has recently been upstreamed, but with an additional keyword
required. This patch updates test_lwt_seg6local.sh to the definitive
iproute2 syntax

The current map_check_btf() in BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY rejects
'&gt; map-&gt;value_size' to ensure map_seq_show_elem() will not
access things beyond an array element.

Yonghong suggested that using '!=' is a more correct
check.  The 8 bytes round_up on value_size is stored
in array-&gt;elem_size.  Hence, using '!=' on map-&gt;value_size
is a proper check.

This patch also adds new tests to check the btf array
key type and value type.  Two of these new tests verify
the btf's value_size (the change in this patch).

It also fixes two existing tests that wrongly encoded
a btf's type size (pprint_test) and the value_type_id (in one
of the raw_tests[]).  However, that do not affect these two
BTF verification tests before or after this test changes.
These two tests mainly failed at array creation time after
this patch.

This patch introduces BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR to signal the
bpf loader about the btf key_type and value_type of a bpf map.
Please refer to the changes in test_btf_haskv.c for its usage.
Both iproute2 and libbpf loader will then have the same
convention to find out the map's btf_key_type_id and
btf_value_type_id from a map's name.

Fixes: 8a138aed4a80 ("bpf: btf: Add BTF support to libbpf")
