<content type='text'>
This work adds program tracking to prog array maps. This is needed such
that upon prog array updates/deletions we can fix up all programs which
make use of this tail call map. We add ops-&gt;map_poke_{un,}track()
helpers to maps to maintain the list of programs and ops-&gt;map_poke_run()
for triggering the actual update.

bpf_array_aux is extended to contain the list head and poke_mutex in
order to serialize program patching during updates/deletions.
bpf_free_used_maps() will untrack the program shortly before dropping
the reference to the map. For clearing out the prog array once all urefs
are dropped we need to use schedule_work() to have a sleepable context.

The prog_array_map_poke_run() is triggered during updates/deletions and
walks the maintained prog list. It checks in their poke_tabs whether the
map and key is matching and runs the actual bpf_arch_text_poke() for
patching in the nop or new jmp location. Depending on the type of update,
we use one of BPF_MOD_{NOP_TO_JUMP,JUMP_TO_NOP,JUMP_TO_JUMP}.

We're going to extend this with further information which is only
relevant for prog array at this point. Given this info is not used
in critical path, move it into its own structure such that the main
array map structure can be kept on diet.

We later on are going to need a sleepable context as opposed to plain
RCU callback in order to untrack programs we need to poke at runtime
and tracking as well as image update is performed under mutex.

<content type='text'>
Given we recently extended the original bpf_map_area_alloc() helper in
commit fc9702273e2e ("bpf: Add mmap() support for BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY"),
we need to apply the same logic as in ff1c08e1f74b ("bpf: Change size
to u64 for bpf_map_{area_alloc, charge_init}()"). To avoid conflicts,
extend it for bpf-next.

Allow for audit messages to be emitted upon BPF program load and
unload for having a timeline of events. The load itself is in
syscall context, so additional info about the process initiating
the BPF prog creation can be logged and later directly correlated
to the unload event.

The only info really needed from BPF side is the globally unique
prog ID where then audit user space tooling can query / dump all
info needed about the specific BPF program right upon load event
and enrich the record, thus these changes needed here can be kept
small and non-intrusive to the core.

Raw example output:

  # auditctl -D
  # auditctl -a always,exit -F arch=x86_64 -S bpf
  # ausearch --start recent -m 1334

<title>bpf: Add mmap() support for BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY</title>

Add ability to memory-map contents of BPF array map. This is extremely useful
for working with BPF global data from userspace programs. It allows to avoid
typical bpf_map_{lookup,update}_elem operations, improving both performance
and usability.

There had to be special considerations for map freezing, to avoid having
writable memory view into a frozen map. To solve this issue, map freezing and
mmap-ing is happening under mutex now:
  - if map is already frozen, no writable mapping is allowed;
  - if map has writable memory mappings active (accounted in map-&gt;writecnt),
    map freezing will keep failing with -EBUSY;
  - once number of writable memory mappings drops to zero, map freezing can be
    performed again.

Only non-per-CPU plain arrays are supported right now. Maps with spinlocks
can't be memory mapped either.

For BPF_F_MMAPABLE array, memory allocation has to be done through vmalloc()
to be mmap()'able. We also need to make sure that array data memory is
page-sized and page-aligned, so we over-allocate memory in such a way that
struct bpf_array is at the end of a single page of memory with array-&gt;value
being aligned with the start of the second page. On deallocation we need to
accomodate this memory arrangement to free vmalloc()'ed memory correctly.

One important consideration regarding how memory-mapping subsystem functions.
Memory-mapping subsystem provides few optional callbacks, among them open()
and close().  close() is called for each memory region that is unmapped, so
that users can decrease their reference counters and free up resources, if
necessary. open() is *almost* symmetrical: it's called for each memory region
that is being mapped, **except** the very first one. So bpf_map_mmap does
initial refcnt bump, while open() will do any extra ones after that. Thus
number of close() calls is equal to number of open() calls plus one more.

Similarly to bpf_map's refcnt/usercnt, convert bpf_prog's refcnt to atomic64
and remove artificial 32k limit. This allows to make bpf_prog's refcounting
non-failing, simplifying logic of users of bpf_prog_add/bpf_prog_inc.

Validated compilation by running allyesconfig kernel build.

<title>bpf: Switch bpf_map ref counter to atomic64_t so bpf_map_inc() never fails</title>

92117d8443bc ("bpf: fix refcnt overflow") turned refcounting of bpf_map into
potentially failing operation, when refcount reaches BPF_MAX_REFCNT limit
(32k). Due to using 32-bit counter, it's possible in practice to overflow
refcounter and make it wrap around to 0, causing erroneous map free, while
there are still references to it, causing use-after-free problems.

But having a failing refcounting operations are problematic in some cases. One
example is mmap() interface. After establishing initial memory-mapping, user
is allowed to arbitrarily map/remap/unmap parts of mapped memory, arbitrarily
splitting it into multiple non-contiguous regions. All this happening without
any control from the users of mmap subsystem. Rather mmap subsystem sends
notifications to original creator of memory mapping through open/close
callbacks, which are optionally specified during initial memory mapping
creation. These callbacks are used to maintain accurate refcount for bpf_map
(see next patch in this series). The problem is that open() callback is not
supposed to fail, because memory-mapped resource is set up and properly
referenced. This is posing a problem for using memory-mapping with BPF maps.

One solution to this is to maintain separate refcount for just memory-mappings
and do single bpf_map_inc/bpf_map_put when it goes from/to zero, respectively.
There are similar use cases in current work on tcp-bpf, necessitating extra
counter as well. This seems like a rather unfortunate and ugly solution that
doesn't scale well to various new use cases.

Another approach to solve this is to use non-failing refcount_t type, which
uses 32-bit counter internally, but, once reaching overflow state at UINT_MAX,
stays there. This utlimately causes memory leak, but prevents use after free.

But given refcounting is not the most performance-critical operation with BPF
maps (it's not used from running BPF program code), we can also just switch to
64-bit counter that can't overflow in practice, potentially disadvantaging
32-bit platforms a tiny bit. This simplifies semantics and allows above
described scenarios to not worry about failing refcount increment operation.

In terms of struct bpf_map size, we are still good and use the same amount of
space:

This patch, while modifying all users of bpf_map_inc, also cleans up its
interface to match bpf_map_put with separate operations for bpf_map_inc and
bpf_map_inc_with_uref (to match bpf_map_put and bpf_map_put_with_uref,
respectively). Also, given there are no users of bpf_map_inc_not_zero
specifying uref=true, remove uref flag and default to uref=false internally.

Allow FENTRY/FEXIT BPF programs to attach to other BPF programs of any type
including their subprograms. This feature allows snooping on input and output
packets in XDP, TC programs including their return values. In order to do that
the verifier needs to track types not only of vmlinux, but types of other BPF
programs as well. The verifier also needs to translate uapi/linux/bpf.h types
used by networking programs into kernel internal BTF types used by FENTRY/FEXIT
BPF programs. In some cases LLVM optimizations can remove arguments from BPF
subprograms without adjusting BTF info that LLVM backend knows. When BTF info
disagrees with actual types that the verifiers sees the BPF trampoline has to
fallback to conservative and treat all arguments as u64. The FENTRY/FEXIT
program can still attach to such subprograms, but it won't be able to recognize
pointer types like 'struct sk_buff *' and it won't be able to pass them to
bpf_skb_output() for dumping packets to user space. The FENTRY/FEXIT program
would need to use bpf_probe_read_kernel() instead.

The BPF_PROG_LOAD command is extended with attach_prog_fd field. When it's set
to zero the attach_btf_id is one vmlinux BTF type ids. When attach_prog_fd
points to previously loaded BPF program the attach_btf_id is BTF type id of
main function or one of its subprograms.
