bpf: Replace deprecated -target with --target= for Clang

The -target option has been deprecated since clang 3.4 in 2013. Therefore, use
the preferred --target=bpf form instead. This also matches how we use --target=
in scripts/Makefile.clang.

bpftool: Always disable stack protection for BPF objects

When the clang toolchain has stack protection enabled in order to be
consistent with gcc - which just happens to be the case on Gentoo -

bpftool: Add missing quotes to libbpf bootstrap submake vars

When passing compiler variables like CC=$(HOSTCC) to a submake
we must ensure the variable is quoted in order to handle cases
where $(HOSTCC) may be multiple binaries.

For example when using ccache $HOSTCC may be:
"/usr/bin/ccache /usr/bin/gcc"

If we pass CC without quotes like CC=$(HOSTCC) only the first
"/usr/bin/ccache" part will be assigned to the CC variable which
will cause an error due to dropping the "/usr/bin/gcc" part of
the variable in the submake invocation.

This fixes errors such as:
/usr/bin/ccache: invalid option -- 'd'

bpftool: Fix linkage with statically built libllvm

Since the commit eb9d1acf634b ("bpftool: Add LLVM as default library for
disassembling JIT-ed programs") we might link the bpftool program with the
libllvm library. This works fine when a shared libllvm library is available,
but fails if we want to link bpftool with a statically built LLVM:

[...]
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libLLVMSupport.a(CrashRecoveryContext.cpp.o): in function `llvm::CrashRecoveryContextCleanup::~CrashRecoveryContextCleanup()':
CrashRecoveryContext.cpp:(.text._ZN4llvm27CrashRecoveryContextCleanupD0Ev+0x17): undefined reference to `operator delete(void*, unsigned long)'
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libLLVMSupport.a(CrashRecoveryContext.cpp.o): in function `llvm::CrashRecoveryContext::~CrashRecoveryContext()':
CrashRecoveryContext.cpp:(.text._ZN4llvm20CrashRecoveryContextD2Ev+0xc8): undefined reference to `operator delete(void*, unsigned long)'
[...]

So in the case of static libllvm we need to explicitly link bpftool with
required libraries, namely, libstdc++ and those provided by the `llvm-config
--system-libs` command. We can distinguish between the shared and static cases
by using the `llvm-config --shared-mode` command.

bpftool: Add LLVM as default library for disassembling JIT-ed programs

To disassemble instructions for JIT-ed programs, bpftool has relied on
the libbfd library. This has been problematic in the past: libbfd's
interface is not meant to be stable and has changed several times. For
building bpftool, we have to detect how the libbfd version on the system
behaves, which is why we have to handle features disassembler-four-args
and disassembler-init-styled in the Makefile. When it comes to shipping
bpftool, this has also caused issues with several distribution
maintainers unwilling to support the feature (see for example Debian's
page for binutils-dev, which ships libbfd: "Note that building Debian
packages which depend on the shared libbfd is Not Allowed." [0]).

For these reasons, we add support for LLVM as an alternative to libbfd
for disassembling instructions of JIT-ed programs. Thanks to the
preparation work in the previous commits, it's easy to add the library
by passing the relevant compilation options in the Makefile, and by
adding the functions for setting up the LLVM disassembler in file
jit_disasm.c.

The LLVM disassembler requires the LLVM development package (usually
llvm-dev or llvm-devel).

The expectation is that the interface for this disassembler will be more
stable. There is a note in LLVM's Developer Policy [1] stating that the
stability for the C API is "best effort" and not guaranteed, but at
least there is some effort to keep compatibility when possible (which
hasn't really been the case for libbfd so far). Furthermore, the Debian
page for the related LLVM package does not caution against linking to
the lib, as binutils-dev page does.

Naturally, the display of disassembled instructions comes with a few
minor differences. Here is a sample output with libbfd (already
supported before this patch):

# bpftool prog dump jited id 56
bpf_prog_6deef7357e7b4530:
0: nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
5: xchg %ax,%ax
7: push %rbp
8: mov %rsp,%rbp
b: push %rbx
c: push %r13
e: push %r14
10: mov %rdi,%rbx
13: movzwq 0xb4(%rbx),%r13
1b: xor %r14d,%r14d
1e: or $0x2,%r14d
22: mov $0x1,%eax
27: cmp $0x2,%r14
2b: jne 0x000000000000002f
2d: xor %eax,%eax
2f: pop %r14
31: pop %r13
33: pop %rbx
34: leave
35: ret

LLVM supports several variants that we could set when initialising the
disassembler, for example with:

LLVMSetDisasmOptions(*ctx,
LLVMDisassembler_Option_AsmPrinterVariant);

but the default printer is used for now. Here is the output with LLVM:

# bpftool prog dump jited id 56
bpf_prog_6deef7357e7b4530:
0: nopl (%rax,%rax)
5: nop
7: pushq %rbp
8: movq %rsp, %rbp
b: pushq %rbx
c: pushq %r13
e: pushq %r14
10: movq %rdi, %rbx
13: movzwq 180(%rbx), %r13
1b: xorl %r14d, %r14d
1e: orl $2, %r14d
22: movl $1, %eax
27: cmpq $2, %r14
2b: jne 0x2f
2d: xorl %eax, %eax
2f: popq %r14
31: popq %r13
33: popq %rbx
34: leave
35: retq

The LLVM disassembler comes as the default choice, with libbfd as a
fall-back.

Of course, we could replace libbfd entirely and avoid supporting two
different libraries. One reason for keeping libbfd is that, right now,
it works well, we have all we need in terms of features detection in the
Makefile, so it provides a fallback for disassembling JIT-ed programs if
libbfd is installed but LLVM is not. The other motivation is that libbfd
supports nfp instruction for Netronome's SmartNICs and can be used to
disassemble offloaded programs, something that LLVM cannot do. If
libbfd's interface breaks again in the future, we might reconsider
keeping support for it.

bpftool: Group libbfd defs in Makefile, only pass them if we use libbfd

Bpftool uses libbfd for disassembling JIT-ed programs. But the feature
is optional, and the tool can be compiled without libbfd support. The
Makefile sets the relevant variables accordingly. It also sets variables
related to libbfd's interface, given that it has changed over time.

Group all those libbfd-related definitions so that it's easier to
understand what we are testing for, and only use variables related to
libbfd's interface if we need libbfd in the first place.

In addition to make the Makefile clearer, grouping the definitions
related to disassembling JIT-ed programs will help support alternatives
to libbfd.

tools bpftool: Fix compilation error with new binutils

binutils changed the signature of init_disassemble_info(), which now causes
compilation to fail for tools/bpf/bpftool/jit_disasm.c, e.g. on debian
unstable.

Relevant binutils commit:

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=60a3da00bd5407f07

Wire up the feature test and switch to init_disassemble_info_compat(),
which were introduced in prior commits, fixing the compilation failure.

I verified that bpftool can still disassemble bpf programs, both with an
old and new dis-asm.h API. There are no output changes for plain and json
formats. When comparing the output from old binutils (2.35)
to new bintuils with the patch (upstream snapshot) there are a few output
differences, but they are unrelated to this patch. An example hunk is:

2f: pop %r14
31: pop %r13
33: pop %rbx
- 34: leaveq
- 35: retq

bpftool: Remove zlib feature test from Makefile

The feature test to detect the availability of zlib in bpftool's
Makefile does not bring much. The library is not optional: it may or may
not be required along libbfd for disassembling instructions, but in any
case it is necessary to build feature.o or even libbpf, on which bpftool
depends.

If we remove the feature test, we lose the nicely formatted error
message, but we get a compiler error about "zlib.h: No such file or
directory", which is equally informative. Let's get rid of the test.

bpftool: Fix bootstrapping during a cross compilation

This change adjusts the Makefile to use "HOSTAR" as the archive tool
to keep the sanity of the build process for the bootstrap part in
check. For the rationale, please continue reading.

When cross compiling bpftool with buildroot, it leads to an invocation
like:

$ AR="/path/to/buildroot/host/bin/arc-linux-gcc-ar" \
CC="/path/to/buildroot/host/bin/arc-linux-gcc" \
...
make

Which in return fails while building the bootstrap section:

----------------------------------8<----------------------------------

make: Entering directory '/src/bpftool-v6.7.0/src'
... libbfd: [ on ]
... disassembler-four-args: [ on ]
... zlib: [ on ]
... libcap: [ OFF ]
... clang-bpf-co-re: [ on ] <-- triggers bootstrap

.
.
.

This occurs because setting "AR" confuses the build process for the

"libbpf.a" instead of the host "ar".

$(or ...) is available since GNU Make 3.81, and useful to shorten the

Covert as follows:

$(if A,A,B) --> $(or A,B)

This patch also converts:

$(if A, A, B) --> $(or A, B)

Strictly speaking, the latter is not an equivalent conversion because
GNU Make keeps spaces after commas; if A is not empty, $(if A, A, B)
expands to " A", while $(or A, B) expands to "A".

Anyway, preceding spaces are not significant in the code hunks I touched.

Because the OUTPUT variable ends with a slash but CURDIR doesn't, to keep

Since the _OUTPUT variable holds a value ending with a trailing slash,
there is no need to add another one when defining BOOTSTRAP_OUTPUT and
LIBBPF_OUTPUT variables. Likewise, when defining LIBBPF_INCLUDE and

bpftool: Remove usage of reallocarray()

This commit fixes a compilation error on systems with glibc < 2.26 [0]:

```
In file included from main.h:14:0,
from gen.c:24:
linux/tools/include/tools/libc_compat.h:11:21: error: attempt to use poisoned "reallocarray"

```

This happens because gen.c pulls <bpf/libbpf_internal.h>, and then
<tools/libc_compat.h> (through main.h). When
COMPAT_NEED_REALLOCARRAY is set, libc_compat.h defines reallocarray()
which libbpf_internal.h poisons with a GCC pragma.

This commit reuses libbpf_reallocarray() implemented in commit
029258d7b228 ("libbpf: Remove any use of reallocarray() in libbpf").

v1 -> v2:
- reuse libbpf_reallocarray() instead of reimplementing it

bpftool: Implement "gen min_core_btf" logic

This commit implements the logic for the gen min_core_btf command.
Specifically, it implements the following functions:

- minimize_btf(): receives the path of a source and destination BTF
files and a list of BPF objects. This function records the relocations
for all objects and then generates the BTF file by calling
btfgen_get_btf() (implemented in the following commit).

- btfgen_record_obj(): loads the BTF and BTF.ext sections of the BPF
objects and loops through all CO-RE relocations. It uses
bpf_core_calc_relo_insn() from libbpf and passes the target spec to
btfgen_record_reloc(), that calls one of the following functions
depending on the relocation kind.

- btfgen_record_field_relo(): uses the target specification to mark all
the types that are involved in a field-based CO-RE relocation. In this
case types resolved and marked recursively using btfgen_mark_type().
Only the struct and union members (and their types) involved in the
relocation are marked to optimize the size of the generated BTF file.

- btfgen_record_type_relo(): marks the types involved in a type-based
CO-RE relocation. In this case no members for the struct and union types
are marked as libbpf doesn't use them while performing this kind of
relocation. Pointed types are marked as they are used by libbpf in this
case.

- btfgen_record_enumval_relo(): marks the whole enum type for enum-based
relocations.

Since the notion of versions was introduced for bpftool, it has been
following the version number of the kernel (using the version number
corresponding to the tree in which bpftool's sources are located). The
rationale was that bpftool's features are loosely tied to BPF features
in the kernel, and that we could defer versioning to the kernel
repository itself.

But this versioning scheme is confusing today, because a bpftool binary
should be able to work with both older and newer kernels, even if some
of its recent features won't be available on older systems. Furthermore,
if bpftool is ported to other systems in the future, keeping a
Linux-based version number is not a good option.

Looking at other options, we could either have a totally independent
scheme for bpftool, or we could align it on libbpf's version number
(with an offset on the major version number, to avoid going backwards).
The latter comes with a few drawbacks:

- We may want bpftool releases in-between two libbpf versions. We can
always append pre-release numbers to distinguish versions, although
those won't look as "official" as something with a proper release
number. But at the same time, having bpftool with version numbers that
look "official" hasn't really been an issue so far.

- If no new feature lands in bpftool for some time, we may move from
e.g. 6.7.0 to 6.8.0 when libbpf levels up and have two different
versions which are in fact the same.

- Following libbpf's versioning scheme sounds better than kernel's, but
ultimately it doesn't make too much sense either, because even though
bpftool uses the lib a lot, its behaviour is not that much conditioned
by the internal evolution of the library (or by new APIs that it may
not use).

Having an independent versioning scheme solves the above, but at the
cost of heavier maintenance. Developers will likely forget to increase
the numbers when adding features or bug fixes, and we would take the
risk of having to send occasional "catch-up" patches just to update the
version number.

Based on these considerations, this patch aligns bpftool's version
number on libbpf's. This is not a perfect solution, but 1) it's
certainly an improvement over the current scheme, 2) the issues raised
above are all minor at the moment, and 3) we can still move to an
independent scheme in the future if we realise we need it.

Given that libbpf is currently at version 0.7.0, and bpftool, before
this patch, was at 5.16, we use an offset of 6 for the major version,
bumping bpftool to 6.7.0. Libbpf does not export its patch number;
leave bpftool's patch number at 0 for now.

It remains possible to manually override the version number by setting
BPFTOOL_VERSION when calling make.

than using the CROSS_COMPILE prefix. Makefile.include transforms

bpftool: Install libbpf headers for the bootstrap version, too

We recently changed bpftool's Makefile to make it install libbpf's
headers locally instead of pulling them from the source directory of the
library. Although bpftool needs two versions of libbpf, a "regular" one
and a "bootstrap" version, we would only install headers for the regular
libbpf build. Given that this build always occurs before the bootstrap
build when building bpftool, this is enough to ensure that the bootstrap
bpftool will have access to the headers exported through the regular
libbpf build.

However, this did not account for the case when we only want the
bootstrap version of bpftool, through the "bootstrap" target. For
example, perf needs the bootstrap version only, to generate BPF
skeletons. In that case, when are the headers installed? For some time,
the issue has been masked, because we had a step (the installation of
headers internal to libbpf) which would depend on the regular build of
libbpf and hence trigger the export of the headers, just for the sake of
creating a directory. But this changed with commit 8b6c46241c77
("bpftool: Remove Makefile dep. on $(LIBBPF) for
$(LIBBPF_INTERNAL_HDRS)"), where we cleaned up that stage and removed
the dependency on the regular libbpf build. As a result, when we only
want the bootstrap bpftool version, the regular libbpf is no longer
built. The bootstrap libbpf version is built, but headers are not
exported, and the bootstrap bpftool build fails because of the missing
headers.

To fix this, we also install the library headers for the bootstrap
version of libbpf, to use them for the bootstrap bpftool and for
generating the skeletons.

bpftool: Switch to libbpf's hashmap for pinned paths of BPF objects

In order to show pinned paths for BPF programs, maps, or links when
listing them with the "-f" option, bpftool creates hash maps to store
all relevant paths under the bpffs. So far, it would rely on the
kernel implementation (from tools/include/linux/hashtable.h).

We can make bpftool rely on libbpf's implementation instead. The
motivation is to make bpftool less dependent of kernel headers, to ease
the path to a potential out-of-tree mirror, like libbpf has.

This commit is the first step of the conversion: the hash maps for
pinned paths for programs, maps, and links are converted to libbpf's
hashmap.{c,h}. Other hash maps used for the PIDs of process holding
references to BPF objects are left unchanged for now. On the build side,
this requires adding a dependency to a second header internal to libbpf,
and making it a dependency for the bootstrap bpftool version as well.
The rest of the changes are a rather straightforward conversion.

bpftool: Turn check on zlib from a phony target into a conditional error

One of bpftool's object files depends on zlib. To make sure we do not
attempt to build that object when the library is not available, commit
d66fa3c70e59 ("tools: bpftool: add feature check for zlib") introduced a
feature check to detect whether zlib is present.

This check comes as a rule for which the target ("zdep") is a
nonexistent file (phony target), which means that the Makefile always
attempts to rebuild it. It is mostly harmless. However, one side effect
is that, on running again once bpftool is already built, make considers
that "something" (the recipe for zdep) was executed, and does not print
the usual message "make: Nothing to be done for 'all'", which is a
user-friendly indicator that the build went fine.

bpftool: Do not FORCE-build libbpf

In bpftool's Makefile, libbpf has a FORCE dependency, to make sure we
rebuild it in case its source files changed. Let's instead make the
rebuild depend on the source files directly, through a call to the
"$(wildcard ...)" function. This avoids descending into libbpf's
directory if there is nothing to update.

Do the same for the bootstrap libbpf version.

This results in a slightly faster operation and less verbose output when
running make a second time in bpftool's directory.

Before:

Auto-detecting system features:
... libbfd: [ on ]
... disassembler-four-args: [ on ]
... zlib: [ on ]

Other ways to clean up the output could be to pass the "-s" option, or
to redirect the output to >/dev/null, when calling make recursively to
descend into libbpf's directory. However, this would suppress some
useful output if something goes wrong during the build. A better
alternative would be to pass "--no-print-directory" to the recursive
make, but that would still leave us with some noise for
"install_headers". Skipping the descent into libbpf's directory if no
source file has changed works best, and seems the most logical option
overall.

bpftool: Fix install for libbpf's internal header(s)

We recently updated bpftool's Makefile to make it install the headers
from libbpf, instead of pulling them directly from libbpf's directory.
There is also an additional header, internal to libbpf, that needs be
installed. The way that bpftool's Makefile installs that particular
header is currently correct, but would break if we were to modify
$(LIBBPF_INTERNAL_HDRS) to make it point to more than one header.

Use a static pattern rule instead, so that the Makefile can withstand
the addition of other headers to install.

The objective is simply to make the Makefile more robust. It should
_not_ be read as an invitation to import more internal headers from
libbpf into bpftool.

bpftool: Install libbpf headers instead of including the dir

Bpftool relies on libbpf, therefore it relies on a number of headers
from the library and must be linked against the library. The Makefile
for bpftool exposes these objects by adding tools/lib as an include
directory ("-I$(srctree)/tools/lib"). This is a working solution, but
this is not the cleanest one. The risk is to involuntarily include
objects that are not intended to be exposed by the libbpf.

The headers needed to compile bpftool should in fact be "installed" from
libbpf, with its "install_headers" Makefile target. In addition, there
is one header which is internal to the library and not supposed to be
used by external applications, but that bpftool uses anyway.

Adjust the Makefile in order to install the header files properly before
compiling bpftool. Also copy the additional internal header file
(nlattr.h), but call it out explicitly. Build (and install headers) in a
subdirectory under bpftool/ instead of tools/lib/bpf/. When descending
from a parent Makefile, this is configurable by setting the OUTPUT,
LIBBPF_OUTPUT and LIBBPF_DESTDIR variables.

Also adjust the Makefile for BPF selftests, so as to reuse the (host)
libbpf compiled earlier and to avoid compiling a separate version of the
library just for bpftool.

Turn previously auto-generated libbpf_version.h header into a normal
header file. This prevents various tricky Makefile integration issues,

it with some more versioning-related APIs in the future.

To prevent accidental out-of-sync versions as defined by libbpf.map and

Simultaneously with this change bump libbpf.map to v0.6.

Also undo adding libbpf's output directory into include path for

libbpf: Add LIBBPF_DEPRECATED_SINCE macro for scheduling API deprecations

Introduce a macro LIBBPF_DEPRECATED_SINCE(major, minor, message) to prepare
the deprecation of two API functions. This macro marks functions as deprecated
when libbpf's version reaches the values passed as an argument.

As part of this change libbpf_version.h header is added with recorded major
(LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION) and minor (LIBBPF_MINOR_VERSION) libbpf version macros.
They are now part of libbpf public API and can be relied upon by user code.
libbpf_version.h is installed system-wide along other libbpf public headers.

Due to this new build-time auto-generated header, in-kernel applications
relying on libbpf (resolve_btfids, bpftool, bpf_preload) are updated to
include libbpf's output directory as part of a list of include search paths.
Better fix would be to use libbpf's make_install target to install public API
headers, but that clean up is left out as a future improvement. The build
changes were tested by building kernel (with KBUILD_OUTPUT and O= specified
explicitly), bpftool, libbpf, selftests/bpf, and resolve_btfids builds. No
problems were detected.

Note that because of the constraints of the C preprocessor we have to write
a few lines of macro magic for each version used to prepare deprecation (0.6
for now).

Also, use LIBBPF_DEPRECATED_SINCE() to schedule deprecation of
btf__get_from_id() and btf__load(), which are replaced by
btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() and btf__load_into_kernel(), respectively,
starting from future libbpf v0.6. This is part of libbpf 1.0 effort ([0]).

tools/bpftool: Fix cross-build

When the bootstrap and final bpftool have different architectures, we
need to build two distinct disasm.o objects. Add a recipe for the
bootstrap disasm.o.

After commit d510296d331a ("bpftool: Use syscall/loader program in
"prog load" and "gen skeleton" command.") cross-building bpftool didn't
work anymore, because the bootstrap bpftool was linked using objects
from different architectures:

[...]

The final bpftool was built for e.g. arm64, while the bootstrap bpftool,
executed on the host, was built for x86. The problem here was that disasm.o
linked into the bootstrap bpftool was arm64 rather than x86. With the fix
we build two disasm.o, one for the target bpftool in arm64, and one for
the bootstrap bpftool in x86.

Add -L flag to bpftool to use libbpf gen_trace facility and syscall/loader program

"bpftool gen skeleton -L" command will generate a "light skeleton" or "loader skeleton"
that is similar to existing skeleton, but has one major difference:

#include <stdlib.h>

The light skeleton does not use majority of libbpf infrastructure.
It doesn't need libelf. It doesn't parse .o file.
It only needs few sys_bpf wrappers. All of them are in bpf/bpf.h file.
In future libbpf/bpf.c can be inlined into bpf.h, so not even libbpf.a would be
needed to work with light skeleton.

"bpftool prog load -L file.o" command is introduced for debugging of syscall/loader
program generation. Just like the same command without -L it will try to load
the programs from file.o into the kernel. It won't even try to pin them.

"bpftool prog load -L -d file.o" command will provide additional debug messages
on how syscall/loader program was generated.
Also the execution of syscall/loader program will use bpf_trace_printk() for
each step of loading BTF, creating maps, and loading programs.
The user can do "cat /.../trace_pipe" for further debug.

tools: Factor Clang, LLC and LLVM utils definitions

When dealing with BPF/BTF/pahole and DWARF v5 I wanted to build bpftool.

While looking into the source code I found duplicate assignments in misc tools
for the LLVM eco system, e.g. clang and llvm-objcopy.

Move the Clang, LLC and/or LLVM utils definitions to tools/scripts/Makefile.include
file and add missing includes where needed. Honestly, I was inspired by the commit
c8a950d0d3b9 ("tools: Factor HOSTCC, HOSTLD, HOSTAR definitions").

I tested with bpftool and perf on Debian/testing AMD64 and LLVM/Clang v11.1.0-rc1.

Build instructions:

[ make and make-options ]
MAKE="make V=1"
MAKE_OPTS="HOSTCC=clang HOSTCXX=clang++ HOSTLD=ld.lld CC=clang LD=ld.lld LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1"
MAKE_OPTS="$MAKE_OPTS PAHOLE=/opt/pahole/bin/pahole"

[ clean-up ]
$MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/ clean

[ bpftool ]
$MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/bpf/bpftool/

[ perf ]
PYTHON=python3 $MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/perf/

I was careful with respecting the user's wish to override custom compiler, linker,
GNU/binutils and/or LLVM utils settings.

The bpftool build first creates an intermediate binary, executed on the

the final bpftool using the cross compiler (e.g. aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc).

Generate the intermediate objects into the bootstrap/ directory using

tools, bpf/build: Cleanup feature files on make clean

The system for "Auto-detecting system features" located under
tools/build/ are (currently) used by perf, libbpf and bpftool. It can
contain stalled feature detection files, which are not cleaned up by
libbpf and bpftool on make clean (side-note: perf tool is correct).

Fix this by making the users invoke the make clean target.

Some details about the changes. The libbpf Makefile already had a
clean-config target (which seems to be copy-pasted from perf), but this
target was not "connected" (a make dependency) to clean target. Choose
not to rename target as someone might be using it. Did change the output
from "CLEAN config" to "CLEAN feature-detect", to make it more clear
what happens.

tools/bpftool: Allow substituting custom vmlinux.h for the build

In some build contexts (e.g., Travis CI build for outdated kernel), vmlinux.h,
generated from available kernel, doesn't contain all the types necessary for
BPF program compilation. For such set up, the most maintainable way to deal
with this problem is to keep pre-generated (almost up-to-date) vmlinux.h
checked in and use it for compilation purposes. bpftool after that can deal
with kernel missing some of the features in runtime with no problems.

To that effect, allow to specify path to custom vmlinux.h to bpftool's

tools/bpftool: Minimize bootstrap bpftool

Build minimal "bootstrap mode" bpftool to enable skeleton (and, later,
vmlinux.h generation), instead of building almost complete, but slightly
different (w/o skeletons, etc) bpftool to bootstrap complete bpftool build.

Current approach doesn't scale well (engineering-wise) when adding more BPF
programs to bpftool and other complicated functionality, as it requires
constant adjusting of the code to work in both bootstrapped mode and normal
mode.

So it's better to build only minimal bpftool version that supports only BPF
skeleton code generation and BTF-to-C conversion. Thankfully, this is quite
easy to accomplish due to internal modularity of bpftool commands. This will
also allow to keep adding new functionality to bpftool in general, without the
need to care about bootstrap mode for those new parts of bpftool.

tools: bpftool: Allow unprivileged users to probe features

There is demand for a way to identify what BPF helper functions are
available to unprivileged users. To do so, allow unprivileged users to
run "bpftool feature probe" to list BPF-related features. This will only
show features accessible to those users, and may not reflect the full
list of features available (to administrators) on the system.

To avoid the case where bpftool is inadvertently run as non-root and
would list only a subset of the features supported by the system when it
would be expected to list all of them, running as unprivileged is gated
behind the "unprivileged" keyword passed to the command line. When used
by a privileged user, this keyword allows to drop the CAP_SYS_ADMIN and
to list the features available to unprivileged users. Note that this
addsd a dependency on libpcap for compiling bpftool.

Note that there is no particular reason why the probes were restricted
to root, other than the fact I did not need them for unprivileged and
did not bother with the additional checks at the time probes were added.

tools/bpf: Move linux/types.h for selftests and bpftool

Commit fe4eb069edb7 ("bpftool: Use linux/types.h from source tree for

to tools/bpf/bpftool. This is suboptimal with respect to a possible
stand-alone build of bpftool.

Fix this by moving tools/testing/selftests/bpf/include/uapi/linux/types.h
to tools/include/uapi/linux/types.h.

This requires an adjustment in the include search path order for the
tests in tools/testing/selftests/bpf so that tools/include/linux/types.h
is selected when building host binaries and
tools/include/uapi/linux/types.h is selected when building bpf binaries.

Verified by compiling bpftool and the bpf selftests on x86_64 with this

tools/include/uapi. Also use __bitwise__ instead of __bitwise in
skeleton/profiler.h to avoid clashing with the definition in

bpftool: Introduce "prog profile" command

With fentry/fexit programs, it is possible to profile BPF program with
hardware counters. Introduce bpftool "prog profile", which measures key
metrics of a BPF program.

bpftool prog profile command creates per-cpu perf events. Then it attaches
fentry/fexit programs to the target BPF program. The fentry program saves
perf event value to a map. The fexit program reads the perf event again,
and calculates the difference, which is the instructions/cycles used by
the target program.

Example input and output:

./bpftool prog profile id 337 duration 3 cycles instructions llc_misses

4228 run_cnt
3403698 cycles (84.08%)
3525294 instructions # 1.04 insn per cycle (84.05%)
13 llc_misses # 3.69 LLC misses per million isns (83.50%)

This command measures cycles and instructions for BPF program with id
337 for 3 seconds. The program has triggered 4228 times. The rest of the
output is similar to perf-stat. In this example, the counters were only
counting ~84% of the time because of time multiplexing of perf counters.

Note that, this approach measures cycles and instructions in very small
increments. So the fentry/fexit programs introduce noticeable errors to
the measurement results.

The fentry/fexit programs are generated with BPF skeletons. Therefore, we
build bpftool twice. The first time _bpftool is built without skeletons.
Then, _bpftool is used to generate the skeletons. The second time, bpftool
is built with skeletons.

bpftool: Use consistent include paths for libbpf

Fix bpftool to include libbpf header files with the bpf/ prefix, to be
consistent with external users of the library. Also ensure that all
includes of exported libbpf header files (those that are exported on 'make
install' of the library) use bracketed includes instead of quoted.

To make sure no new files are introduced that doesn't include the bpf/
prefix in its include, remove tools/lib/bpf from the include path entirely,
and use tools/lib instead.

tools: bpf: account for generated feature/ and libbpf/ directories

When building "tools/bpf" from the top of the Linux repository, the
build system passes a value for the $(OUTPUT) Makefile variable to
tools/bpf/Makefile and tools/bpf/bpftool/Makefile, which results in
generating "libbpf/" (for bpftool) and "feature/" (bpf and bpftool)
directories inside the tree.

This commit adds such directories to the relevant .gitignore files, and
edits the Makefiles to ensure they are removed on "make clean". The use
of "rm" is also made consistent throughout those Makefiles (relies on
the $(RM) variable, use "--" to prevent interpreting
$(OUTPUT)/$(DESTDIR) as options.

tools: bpftool: improve and check builds for different make invocations

There are a number of alternative "make" invocations that can be used to
compile bpftool. The following invocations are expected to work:

- through the kbuild system, from the top of the repository
(make tools/bpf)
- by telling make to change to the bpftool directory
(make -C tools/bpf/bpftool)
- by building the BPF tools from tools/
(cd tools && make bpf)
- by running make from bpftool directory
(cd tools/bpf/bpftool && make)

Additionally, setting the O or OUTPUT variables should tell the build
system to use a custom output path, for each of these alternatives.

The following patch fixes the following invocations:

$ make tools/bpf
$ make tools/bpf O=<dir>
$ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool OUTPUT=<dir>
$ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool O=<dir>
$ cd tools/ && make bpf O=<dir>
$ cd tools/bpf/bpftool && make OUTPUT=<dir>
$ cd tools/bpf/bpftool && make O=<dir>

After this commit, the build still fails for two variants when passing
the OUTPUT variable:

$ make tools/bpf OUTPUT=<dir>
$ cd tools/ && make bpf OUTPUT=<dir>

In order to remember and check what make invocations are supposed to
work, and to document the ones which do not, a new script is added to
the BPF selftests. Note that some invocations require the kernel to be
configured, so the script skips them if no .config file is found.

v2:
- In make_and_clean(), set $ERROR to 1 when "make" returns non-zero,
even if the binary was produced.
- Run "make clean" from the correct directory (bpf/ instead of bpftool/,
when relevant).

tools: bpftool: ignore make built-in rules for getting kernel version

Bpftool calls the toplevel Makefile to get the kernel version for the
sources it is built from. But when the utility is built from the top of
the kernel repository, it may dump the following error message for
certain architectures (including x86):

$ make tools/bpf
[...]
make[3]: *** [checkbin] Error 1
[...]

This does not prevent bpftool compilation, but may feel disconcerting.
The "checkbin" arch-dependent target is not supposed to be called for
target "kernelversion", which is a simple "echo" of the version number.

It turns out this is caused by the make invocation in tools/bpf/bpftool,
which attempts to find implicit rules to apply. Extract from debug
output:

tools: bpftool: unify installation directories

Programs and documentation not managed by package manager are generally
installed under /usr/local/, instead of the user's home directory. In
particular, `man` is generally able to find manual pages under
`/usr/local/share/man`.

bpftool generally follows perf's example, and perf installs to home
directory. However bpftool requires root credentials, so it seems
sensible to follow the more common convention of installing files under
/usr/local instead. So, make /usr/local the default prefix for
installing the binary with `make install`, and the documentation with
`make doc-install`. Also, create /usr/local/sbin if it does not exist.

Note that the bash-completion file, however, is still installed under
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions, as the default setup for bash

tools: bpftool: add bash completion for bpftool

Add a completion file for bash. The completion function runs bpftool
when needed, making it smart enough to help users complete ids or tags
for eBPF programs and maps currently on the system.

Update Makefile to install completion file to
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions when running `make install`.

Emacs file mode and (at the end) Vim modeline have been added, to keep
the style in use for most existing bash completion files. In this, it
differs from tools/perf/perf-completion.sh, which seems to be the only
other completion file among the kernel sources repository. This is also
valid for indent style: 4-space indents, as in other completion files.
