This patch allows userspace to do BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM on
BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY,
BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS and
BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS.

The lookup returns a prog-id or map-id to the userspace.
The userspace can then use the BPF_PROG_GET_FD_BY_ID
or BPF_MAP_GET_FD_BY_ID to get a fd.

Allow BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program types to attach to all
perf_event types, including HW_CACHE, RAW, and dynamic pmu events.
Only tracepoint/kprobe events are treated differently which require
BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT/BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE program types accordingly.

Also add support for reading all event counters using
bpf_perf_event_read() helper.

<title>bpf: fix wrong exposure of map_flags into fdinfo for lpm</title>

trie_alloc() always needs to have BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC passed in via
attr-&gt;map_flags, since it does not support preallocation yet. We
check the flag, but we never copy the flag into trie-&gt;map.map_flags,
which is later on exposed into fdinfo and used by loaders such as
iproute2. Latter uses this in bpf_map_selfcheck_pinned() to test
whether a pinned map has the same spec as the one from the BPF obj
file and if not, bails out, which is currently the case for lpm
since it exposes always 0 as flags.

Also copy over flags in array_map_alloc() and stack_map_alloc().
They always have to be 0 right now, but we should make sure to not
miss to copy them over at a later point in time when we add actual
flags for them to use.

When iterating through a map, we need to find a key that does not exist
in the map so map_get_next_key will give us the first key of the map.
This often requires a lot of guessing in production systems.

This patch makes map_get_next_key return the first key when the key
pointer in the parameter is NULL.

<title>bpf: remove struct bpf_map_type_list</title>

There's no need to have struct bpf_map_type_list since
it just contains a list_head, the type, and the ops
pointer. Since the types are densely packed and not
actually dynamically registered, it's much easier and
smaller to have an array of type-&gt;ops pointer. Also
initialize this array statically to remove code needed
to initialize it.

In order to save duplicating the list, move it to the
types header file added by the previous patch and
include it in the same fashion.

<id>urn:sha1:56f668dfe00dcf086734f1c42ea999398fad6572</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds a few helper funcs to enable map-in-map
support (i.e. outer_map-&gt;inner_map).  The first outer_map type
BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS is also added in this patch.
The next patch will introduce a hash of maps type.

Any bpf map type can be acted as an inner_map.  The exception
is BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY because the extra level of
indirection makes it harder to verify the owner_prog_type
and owner_jited.

Multi-level map-in-map is not supported (i.e. map-&gt;map is ok
but not map-&gt;map-&gt;map).

When adding an inner_map to an outer_map, it currently checks the
map_type, key_size, value_size, map_flags, max_entries and ops.
The verifier also uses those map's properties to do static analysis.
map_flags is needed because we need to ensure BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
is using a preallocated hashtab for the inner_hash also.  ops and
max_entries are needed to generate inlined map-lookup instructions.
For simplicity reason, a simple '==' test is used for both map_flags
and max_entries.  The equality of ops is implied by the equality of
map_type.

During outer_map creation time, an inner_map_fd is needed to create an
outer_map.  However, the inner_map_fd's life time does not depend on the
outer_map.  The inner_map_fd is merely used to initialize
the inner_map_meta of the outer_map.

Also, for the outer_map:

* It allows element update and delete from syscall
* It allows element lookup from bpf_prog

The above is similar to the current fd_array pattern.

<title>bpf: Fix and simplifications on inline map lookup</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fad73a1a35ea61f13607a391aca669caad8c04ca</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix in verifier:
For the same bpf_map_lookup_elem() instruction (i.e. "call 1"),
a broken case is "a different type of map could be used for the
same lookup instruction". For example, an array in one case and a
hashmap in another.  We have to resort to the old dynamic call behavior
in this case.  The fix is to check for collision on insn_aux-&gt;map_ptr.
If there is collision, don't inline the map lookup.

Please see the "do_reg_lookup()" in test_map_in_map_kern.c in the later
patch for how-to trigger the above case.

Simplifications on array_map_gen_lookup():
1. Calculate elem_size from map-&gt;value_size.  It removes the
   need for 'struct bpf_array' which makes the later map-in-map
   implementation easier.
2. Remove the 'elem_size == 1' test

Optimize bpf_call -&gt; bpf_map_lookup_elem() -&gt; array_map_lookup_elem()
into a sequence of bpf instructions.
When JIT is on the sequence of bpf instructions is the sequence
of native cpu instructions with significantly faster performance
than indirect call and two function's prologue/epilogue.

All map types and prog types are registered to the BPF core through
bpf_register_map_type() and bpf_register_prog_type() during init and
remain unchanged thereafter. As by design we don't (and never will)
have any pluggable code that can register to that at any later point
in time, lets mark all the existing bpf_{map,prog}_type_list objects
in the tree as __ro_after_init, so they can be moved to read-only
section from then onwards.

<id>urn:sha1:d407bd25a204bd66b7346dde24bd3d37ef0e0b05</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds two helpers, bpf_map_area_alloc() and bpf_map_area_free(),
that are to be used for map allocations. Using kmalloc() for very large
allocations can cause excessive work within the page allocator, so i) fall
back earlier to vmalloc() when the attempt is considered costly anyway,
and even more importantly ii) don't trigger OOM killer with any of the
allocators.

Since this is based on a user space request, for example, when creating
maps with element pre-allocation, we really want such requests to fail
instead of killing other user space processes.

Also, don't spam the kernel log with warnings should any of the allocations
fail under pressure. Given that, we can make backend selection in
bpf_map_area_alloc() generic, and convert all maps over to use this API
for spots with potentially large allocation requests.

Note, replacing the one kmalloc_array() is fine as overflow checks happen
earlier in htab_map_alloc(), since it must also protect the multiplication
for vmalloc() should kmalloc_array() fail.
