Commit be2f2d1680 ("libbpf: Deprecate bpf_program__load() API") marked
bpf_program__load() as deprecated starting with libbpf v0.6. And later
in commit 146bf811f5 ("libbpf: remove most other deprecated high-level
APIs") actually removed the bpf_program__load() implementation and
related old high-level APIs.
This patch update the comment in bpf_program__set_attach_target() to
remove the reference to the deprecated interface bpf_program__load().

In the elf_sec_data() function, the input parameter 'scn' will be
evaluated. If it is NULL, then it will directly return NULL. Therefore,
the return value of the elf_sec_data() function already takes into
account the case where the input parameter scn is NULL. Therefore,
subsequently, the code only needs to check whether the return value of
the elf_sec_data() function is NULL.

Reimplement libbpf_sha256() using some basic SHA-256 C code. This
eliminates the newly-added dependency on AF_ALG, which is a problematic
UAPI that is not supported by all kernels.
Make libbpf_sha256() return void, since it can no longer fail. This
simplifies some callers. Also drop the unnecessary 'sha_out_sz'
parameter. Finally, also fix the typo in "compute_sha_udpate_offsets".

When a module registers a struct_ops, the struct_ops type and its
corresponding map_value type ("bpf_struct_ops_") may reside in different
btf objects, here are four possible case:
+--------+---------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
| |bpf_struct_ops_| xxx_ops | |
+--------+---------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
| case 0 | btf_vmlinux | btf_vmlinux | be used and reg only in vmlinux |
+--------+---------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
| case 1 | btf_vmlinux | mod_btf | INVALID |
+--------+---------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
| case 2 | mod_btf | btf_vmlinux | reg in mod but be used both in |
| | | | vmlinux and mod. |
+--------+---------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
| case 3 | mod_btf | mod_btf | be used and reg only in mod |
+--------+---------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
Currently we figure out the mod_btf by searching with the struct_ops type,
which makes it impossible to figure out the mod_btf when the struct_ops
type is in btf_vmlinux while it's corresponding map_value type is in
mod_btf (case 2).
The fix is to use the corresponding map_value type ("bpf_struct_ops_")
as the lookup anchor instead of the struct_ops type to figure out the
`btf` and `mod_btf` via find_ksym_btf_id(), and then we can locate
the kern_type_id via btf__find_by_name_kind() with the `btf` we just
obtained from find_ksym_btf_id().
With this change the lookup obtains the correct btf and mod_btf for case 2,
preserves correct behavior for other valid cases, and still fails as
expected for the invalid scenario (case 1).

Initial __arena global variable support implementation in libbpf
contains a bug: it remembers struct bpf_map pointer for arena, which is
used later on to process relocations. Recording this pointer is
problematic because map pointers are not stable during ELF relocation
collection phase, as an array of struct bpf_map's can be reallocated,
invalidating all the pointers. Libbpf is dealing with similar issues by
using a stable internal map index, though for BPF arena map specifically
this approach wasn't used due to an oversight.
The resulting behavior is non-deterministic issue which depends on exact
layout of ELF object file, number of actual maps, etc. We didn't hit
this until very recently, when this bug started triggering crash in BPF
CI when validating one of sched-ext BPF programs.
The fix is rather straightforward: we just follow an established pattern
of remembering map index (just like obj->kconfig_map_idx, for example)
instead of `struct bpf_map *`, and resolving index to a pointer at the
point where map information is necessary.
While at it also add debug-level message for arena-related relocation
resolution information, which we already have for all other kinds of
maps.

The `name` field in `obj->externs` points into the BTF data at initial
open time. However, some functions may invalidate this after opening and
before loading (e.g. `bpf_map__set_value_size`), which results in
pointers into freed memory and undefined behavior.
The simplest solution is to simply `strdup` these strings, similar to
the `essent_name`, and free them at the same time.
In order to test this path, the `global_map_resize` BPF selftest is
modified slightly to ensure the presence of an extern, which causes this
test to fail prior to the fix. Given there isn't an obvious API or error
to test against, I opted to add this to the existing test as an aspect
of the resizing feature rather than duplicate the test.

As shown in [1], it is possible to corrupt a BPF ELF file such that
arbitrary BPF instructions are loaded by libbpf. This can be done by
setting a symbol (BPF program) section offset to a large (unsigned)
number such that <section start + symbol offset> overflows and points
before the section data in the memory.
Consider the situation below where:
- prog_start = sec_start + symbol_offset <-- size_t overflow here
- prog_end = prog_start + prog_size
prog_start sec_start prog_end sec_end

Introduce bpf_object__prepare API: additional intermediate preparation
step that performs ELF processing, relocations, prepares final state of
BPF program instructions (accessible with bpf_program__insns()), creates
and (potentially) pins maps, and stops short of loading BPF programs.
We anticipate few use cases for this API, such as:
* Use prepare to initialize bpf_token, without loading freplace
programs, unlocking possibility to lookup BTF of other programs.
* Execute prepare to obtain finalized BPF program instructions without
loading programs, enabling tools like veristat to process one program at
a time, without incurring cost of ELF parsing and processing.

Some versions of kernel were stripping out '.llvm.<hash>' suffix from
kerne symbols (produced by Clang LTO compilation) from function names
reported in available_filter_functions, while kallsyms reported full
original name. This confuses libbpf's multi-kprobe logic of finding all
matching kernel functions for specified user glob pattern by joining
available_filter_functions and kallsyms contents, because joining by
full symbol name won't work for symbols containing '.llvm.<hash>' suffix.
This was eventually fixed by [0] in the kernel, but we'd like to not
regress multi-kprobe experience and add a work around for this bug on
libbpf side, stripping kallsym's name if it matches user pattern and
contains '.llvm.' suffix.

Jordan reported an issue in Meta production environment where func
try_to_wake_up() is renamed to try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>() by clang
compiler at lto mode. The original 'kprobe/try_to_wake_up' does not
work any more since try_to_wake_up() does not match the actual func
name in /proc/kallsyms.
There are a couple of ways to resolve this issue. For example, in
attach_kprobe(), we could do lookup in /proc/kallsyms so try_to_wake_up()
can be replaced by try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hach>(). Or we can force users
to use bpf_program__attach_kprobe() where they need to lookup
/proc/kallsyms to find out try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hach>(). But these two
approaches requires extra work by either libbpf or user.
Luckily, suggested by Andrii, multi kprobe already supports wildcard ('*')
for symbol matching. In the above example, 'try_to_wake_up*' can match
to try_to_wake_up() or try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>() and this allows
bpf prog works for different kernels as some kernels may have
try_to_wake_up() and some others may have try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>().
The original intention is to kprobe try_to_wake_up() only, so an optional
field unique_match is added to struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts. If the
field is set to true, the number of matched functions must be one.
Otherwise, the attachment will fail. In the above case, multi kprobe
with 'try_to_wake_up*' and unique_match preserves user functionality.

Since BPF skeleton inception libbpf has been doing mmap()'ing of global
data ARRAY maps in bpf_object__load_skeleton() API, which is used by
code generated .skel.h files (i.e., by BPF skeletons only).
This is wrong because if BPF object is loaded through generic
bpf_object__load() API, global data maps won't be re-mmap()'ed after
load step, and memory pointers returned from bpf_map__initial_value()
would be wrong and won't reflect the actual memory shared between BPF
program and user space.
bpf_map__initial_value() return result is rarely used after load, so
this went unnoticed for a really long time, until bpftrace project
attempted to load BPF object through generic bpf_object__load() API and
then used BPF subskeleton instantiated from such bpf_object. It turned
out that .data/.rodata/.bss data updates through such subskeleton was
"blackholed", all because libbpf wouldn't re-mmap() those maps during
bpf_object__load() phase.
Long story short, this step should be done by libbpf regardless of BPF
skeleton usage, right after BPF map is created in the kernel. This patch
moves this functionality into bpf_object__populate_internal_map() to
achieve this. And bpf_object__load_skeleton() is now simple and almost
trivial, only propagating these mmap()'ed pointers into user-supplied
skeleton structs.
We also do trivial adjustments to error reporting inside
bpf_object__populate_internal_map() for consistency with the rest of
libbpf's map-handling code.

Libbpf pre-1.0 had a legacy logic of allowing singular non-annotated
(i.e., not having explicit SEC() annotation) function to be treated as
sole entry BPF program (unless there were other explicit entry
programs).
This behavior was dropped during libbpf 1.0 transition period (unless
LIBBPF_STRICT_SEC_NAME flag was unset in libbpf_mode). When 1.0 was
released and all the legacy behavior was removed, the bug slipped
through leaving this legacy behavior around.
Fix this for good, as it actually causes very confusing behavior if BPF
object file only has subprograms, but no entry programs.

sym_is_subprog() is incorrectly rejecting relocations against *weak*
global subprogs. Fix that by realizing that STB_WEAK is also a global
function.
While it seems like verifier doesn't support taking an address of
non-static subprog right now, it's still best to fix support for it on
libbpf side, otherwise users will get a very confusing error during BPF
skeleton generation or static linking due to misinterpreted relocation:
libbpf: prog 'handle_tp': bad map relo against 'foo' in section '.text'
Error: failed to open BPF object file: Relocation failed
It's clearly not a map relocation, but is treated and reported as such
without this fix.

Track target endianness in 'struct bpf_gen' and process in-memory data in
native byte-order, but on finalization convert the embedded loader BPF
insns to target endianness.
The light skeleton also includes a target-accessed data blob which is
heterogeneous and thus difficult to convert to target byte-order on
finalization. Add support functions to convert data to target endianness
as it is added to the blob.
Also add additional debug logging for data blob structure details and
skeleton loading.

Referenced commit broke the logic of resetting expected_attach_type to
zero for allowed program types if kernel doesn't yet support such field.
We do need to overwrite and preserve expected_attach_type for
multi-uprobe though, but that can be done explicitly in
libbpf_prepare_prog_load().

Reduce log level of BTF loading error to INFO if BTF is not required.
Andrii says:
Nowadays the expectation is that the BPF program will have a valid
.BTF section, so even though .BTF is "optional", I think it's fine
to emit a warning for that case (any reasonably recent Clang will
produce valid BTF).
Ihor's patch is fixing the situation with an outdated host kernel
that doesn't understand BTF. libbpf will try to "upload" the
program's BTF, but if that fails and the BPF object doesn't use
any features that require having BTF uploaded, then it's just an
information message to the user, but otherwise can be ignored.
