[ Upstream commit 658ac06801315b739774a15796ff06913ef5cad5 ]

Fix the following error when building bpftool:

  CLANG   profiler.bpf.o
  CLANG   pid_iter.bpf.o
skeleton/profiler.bpf.c:18:21: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to an incomplete type 'struct bpf_perf_event_value'
        __uint(value_size, sizeof(struct bpf_perf_event_value));
                           ^     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
tools/bpf/bpftool/bootstrap/libbpf/include/bpf/bpf_helpers.h:13:39: note: expanded from macro '__uint'
tools/bpf/bpftool/bootstrap/libbpf/include/bpf/bpf_helper_defs.h:7:8: note: forward declaration of 'struct bpf_perf_event_value'
struct bpf_perf_event_value;
       ^

struct bpf_perf_event_value is being used in the kernel only when
CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS is enabled, so it misses a BTF entry then.
Define struct bpf_perf_event_value___local with the
`preserve_access_index` attribute inside the pid_iter BPF prog to
allow compiling on any configs. It is a full mirror of a UAPI
structure, so is compatible both with and w/o CO-RE.
bpf_perf_event_read_value() requires a pointer of the original type,
so a cast is needed.

[ Upstream commit 44ba7b30e84fb40da2295e85a6d209e199fdc977 ]

In order to allow the BPF program in bpftool's pid_iter.bpf.c to compile
correctly on hosts where vmlinux.h does not define
BPF_LINK_TYPE_PERF_EVENT (running kernel versions lower than 5.15, for
example), define and use a local copy of the enum value. This requires
LLVM 12 or newer to build the BPF program.

container_of() uses offsetof(), which does the necessary CO-RE
relocation if the field is specified with `preserve_access_index` - as
is the case for struct bpf_perf_link___local.

[ Upstream commit 4cbeeb0dc02f8ac7b975b2ab0080ace53d43d62a ]

When CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is not set, struct perf_event remains empty.
However, the structure is being used by bpftool indirectly via BTF.
This leads to:

skeleton/pid_iter.bpf.c:49:30: error: no member named 'bpf_cookie' in 'struct perf_event'
        return BPF_CORE_READ(event, bpf_cookie);
               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~

...

skeleton/pid_iter.bpf.c:49:9: error: returning 'void' from a function with incompatible result type '__u64' (aka 'unsigned long long')
        return BPF_CORE_READ(event, bpf_cookie);
               ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tools and samples can't use any CONFIG_ definitions, so the fields
used there should always be present.
Define struct perf_event___local with the `preserve_access_index`
attribute inside the pid_iter BPF prog to allow compiling on any
configs. CO-RE will substitute it with the real struct perf_event
accesses later on.

<title>bpftool: Specify XDP Hints ifname when loading program</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f46392ee3dec24066e5fb260d9bd497b4cd4d191</id>
<content type='text'>
Add ability to specify a network interface used to resolve XDP hints
kfuncs when loading program through bpftool.

Usage:

  bpftool prog load [...] xdpmeta_dev &lt;ifname&gt;

Writing just 'dev &lt;ifname&gt;' instead of 'xdpmeta_dev' is a very probable
mistake that results in not very descriptive errors,
so 'bpftool prog load [...] dev &lt;ifname&gt;' syntax becomes deprecated,
followed by 'bpftool map create [...] dev &lt;ifname&gt;' for consistency.

Now, to offload program, execute:

  bpftool prog load [...] offload_dev &lt;ifname&gt;

To offload map:

  bpftool map create [...] offload_dev &lt;ifname&gt;

'dev &lt;ifname&gt;' still performs offloading in the commands above, but now
triggers a warning and is excluded from bash completion.

'xdpmeta_dev' and 'offload_dev' are mutually exclusive options, because
'xdpmeta_dev' basically makes a program device-bound without loading it
onto the said device. For now, offloaded programs cannot use XDP hints [0],
but if this changes, using 'offload_dev &lt;ifname&gt;' should cover this case.

The target_btf_id can help us understand which kernel function is
linked by a tracing prog. The target_btf_id and target_obj_id have
already been exposed to userspace, so we just need to show them.

The result as follows,

$ tools/bpf/bpftool/bpftool link show

        prog_type tracing  attach_type trace_fentry
        target_obj_id 1  target_btf_id 13964
        pids trace(10673)

$ tools/bpf/bpftool/bpftool link show -j

Currently, when using prog loadall and the pin path is a bpffs mountpoint,
bpffs will be repeatedly mounted to the parent directory of the bpffs
mountpoint path. For example, a `bpftool prog loadall test.o /sys/fs/bpf`
will trigger this.

On aarch64, "bpftool feature" reports an incorrect BPF JIT limit:

JIT compiler hardening is disabled
JIT compiler kallsyms exports are enabled for root
skipping kernel config, can't open file: No such file or directory

This is because /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_limit reports

...and an int is assumed in read_procfs().  Change read_procfs()
to return a long to avoid negative value reporting.

<content type='text'>
When using `bpftool map dump` with map_of_maps, it is usually
more convenient to show the inner map id instead of raw value.

We are changing the plain print behavior to show inner_map_id
instead of hex value, this would help with quick look up of
inner map with `bpftool map dump id &lt;inner_map_id&gt;`.
To avoid disrupting scripted behavior, we will add a new
`inner_map_id` field to json output instead of replacing value.

plain print:
```
$ bpftool map dump id 138

Without Patch:
key:
fc 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 05

value:

With Patch:

inner_map_id:
139
Found 1 element
```

json print:
```
$ bpftool -p map dump id 567

<content type='text'>
A new link type, BPF_LINK_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS, was added to attach
struct_ops to links. (226bc6ae6405) It would be helpful for users to
know which map is associated with the link.

The assumption was that every link is associated with a BPF program, but
this does not hold true for struct_ops. It would be better to display
map_id instead of prog_id for struct_ops links. However, some tools may
rely on the old assumption and need a prog_id.  The discussion on the
mailing list suggests that tools should parse JSON format. We will maintain
the existing JSON format by adding a map_id without removing prog_id. As
for plain text format, we will remove prog_id from the header line and add
a map_id for struct_ops links.
