pull-request: bpf-next 2021-11-15
We've added 72 non-merge commits during the last 13 day(s) which contain
a total of 171 files changed, 2728 insertions(+), 1143 deletions(-).
The main changes are:
1) Add btf_type_tag attributes to bring kernel annotations like __user/__rcu to
BTF such that BPF verifier will be able to detect misuse, from Yonghong Song.
2) Big batch of libbpf improvements including various fixes, future proofing APIs,
and adding a unified, OPTS-based bpf_prog_load() low-level API, from Andrii Nakryiko.
3) Add ingress_ifindex to BPF_SK_LOOKUP program type for selectively applying the
programmable socket lookup logic to packets from a given netdev, from Mark Pashmfouroush.
4) Remove the 128M upper JIT limit for BPF programs on arm64 and add selftest to
ensure exception handling still works, from Russell King and Alan Maguire.
5) Add a new bpf_find_vma() helper for tracing to map an address to the backing
file such as shared library, from Song Liu.
6) Batch of various misc fixes to bpftool, fixing a memory leak in BPF program dump,
updating documentation and bash-completion among others, from Quentin Monnet.
7) Deprecate libbpf bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear() API and migrate its users as
the API is heavily tailored around perf and is non-generic, from Dave Marchevsky.
8) Enable libbpf's strict mode by default in bpftool and add a --legacy option as an
opt-out for more relaxed BPF program requirements, from Stanislav Fomichev.
9) Fix bpftool to use libbpf_get_error() to check for errors, from Hengqi Chen.
