Daniel Borkmann says:

====================
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

There is a small merge conflict in libbpf (Cc Andrii so he's in the loop
as well):

for (i = 1; i <= btf__get_nr_types(btf); i++) {
t = (struct btf_type *)btf__type_by_id(btf, i);

if (!has_datasec && btf_is_var(t)) {
/* replace VAR with INT */
t->info = BTF_INFO_ENC(BTF_KIND_INT, 0, 0);
<<<<<<< HEAD
/*
* using size = 1 is the safest choice, 4 will be too
* big and cause kernel BTF validation failure if
* original variable took less than 4 bytes
*/
t->size = 1;
*(int *)(t+1) = BTF_INT_ENC(0, 0, 8);
} else if (!has_datasec && kind == BTF_KIND_DATASEC) {
=======
t->size = sizeof(int);
*(int *)(t + 1) = BTF_INT_ENC(0, 0, 32);
} else if (!has_datasec && btf_is_datasec(t)) {
>>>>>>> 72ef80b5ee131e96172f19e74b4f98fa3404efe8
/* replace DATASEC with STRUCT */

Conflict is between the two commits 1d4126c4e119 ("libbpf: sanitize VAR to
conservative 1-byte INT") and b03bc6853c0e ("libbpf: convert libbpf code to
use new btf helpers"), so we need to pick the sanitation fixup as well as
use the new btf_is_datasec() helper and the whitespace cleanup. Looks like
the following:

[...]
if (!has_datasec && btf_is_var(t)) {
/* replace VAR with INT */
t->info = BTF_INFO_ENC(BTF_KIND_INT, 0, 0);
/*
* using size = 1 is the safest choice, 4 will be too
* big and cause kernel BTF validation failure if
* original variable took less than 4 bytes
*/
t->size = 1;
*(int *)(t + 1) = BTF_INT_ENC(0, 0, 8);
} else if (!has_datasec && btf_is_datasec(t)) {
/* replace DATASEC with STRUCT */
[...]

The main changes are:

1) Addition of core parts of compile once - run everywhere (co-re) effort,
that is, relocation of fields offsets in libbpf as well as exposure of
kernel's own BTF via sysfs and loading through libbpf, from Andrii.

More info on co-re: http://vger.kernel.org/bpfconf2019.html#session-2
and http://vger.kernel.org/lpc-bpf2018.html#session-2

2) Enable passing input flags to the BPF flow dissector to customize parsing
and allowing it to stop early similar to the C based one, from Stanislav.

3) Add a BPF helper function that allows generating SYN cookies from XDP and
tc BPF, from Petar.

4) Add devmap hash-based map type for more flexibility in device lookup for
redirects, from Toke.

5) Improvements to XDP forwarding sample code now utilizing recently enabled
devmap lookups, from Jesper.

6) Add support for reporting the effective cgroup progs in bpftool, from Jakub
and Takshak.

7) Fix reading kernel config from bpftool via /proc/config.gz, from Peter.

8) Fix AF_XDP umem pages mapping for 32 bit architectures, from Ivan.

9) Follow-up to add two more BPF loop tests for the selftest suite, from Alexei.

10) Add perf event output helper also for other skb-based program types, from Allan.

11) Fix a co-re related compilation error in selftests, from Yonghong.

====================
Now that kernel's BTF is exposed through sysfs at well-known location, attempt
to load it first as a target BTF for the purpose of BPF CO-RE relocations.

Patch #1 is a follow-up patch to rename /sys/kernel/btf/kernel into
/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux.

Patch #2 adds ability to load raw BTF contents from sysfs and expands the list
of locations libbpf attempts to load vmlinux BTF from.

btf: expose BTF info through sysfs

Make .BTF section allocated and expose its contents through sysfs.

/sys/kernel/btf directory is created to contain all the BTFs present
inside kernel. Currently there is only kernel's main BTF, represented as
/sys/kernel/btf/kernel file. Once kernel modules' BTFs are supported,
each module will expose its BTF as /sys/kernel/btf/<module-name> file.

Current approach relies on a few pieces coming together:
1. pahole is used to take almost final vmlinux image (modulo .BTF and
kallsyms) and generate .BTF section by converting DWARF info into
BTF. This section is not allocated and not mapped to any segment,
though, so is not yet accessible from inside kernel at runtime.
2. objcopy dumps .BTF contents into binary file and subsequently
convert binary file into linkable object file with automatically
generated symbols _binary__btf_kernel_bin_start and
_binary__btf_kernel_bin_end, pointing to start and end, respectively,
of BTF raw data.
3. final vmlinux image is generated by linking this object file (and
kallsyms, if necessary). sysfs_btf.c then creates
/sys/kernel/btf/kernel file and exposes embedded BTF contents through
it. This allows, e.g., libbpf and bpftool access BTF info at
well-known location, without resorting to searching for vmlinux image
on disk (location of which is not standardized and vmlinux image
might not be even available in some scenarios, e.g., inside qemu
during testing).

Alternative approach using .incbin assembler directive to embed BTF
contents directly was attempted but didn't work, because sysfs_proc.o is
not re-compiled during link-vmlinux.sh stage. This is required, though,
to update embedded BTF data (initially empty data is embedded, then
pahole generates BTF info and we need to regenerate sysfs_btf.o with
updated contents, but it's too late at that point).

If BTF couldn't be generated due to missing or too old pahole,
sysfs_btf.c handles that gracefully by detecting that
_binary__btf_kernel_bin_start (weak symbol) is 0 and not creating
/sys/kernel/btf at all.

v2->v3:
- added Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-btf (Greg K-H);
- created proper kobject (btf_kobj) for btf directory (Greg K-H);
- undo v2 change of reusing vmlinux, as it causes extra kallsyms pass
due to initially missing __binary__btf_kernel_bin_{start/end} symbols;

v1->v2:
- allow kallsyms stage to re-use vmlinux generated by gen_btf();
