When applying a recent commit to the <uapi/linux/perf_event.h>
header I noticed that we have accumulated quite a bit of
historic noise in this header, so do a bit of spring cleaning:
- Define bitfields in a vertically aligned fashion, like
perf_event_mmap_page::capabilities already does. This
makes it easier to see the distribution and sizing of
bits within a word, at a glance. The following is much
more readable:
__u64 cap_bit0 : 1,
cap_bit0_is_deprecated : 1,
cap_user_rdpmc : 1,
cap_user_time : 1,
cap_user_time_zero : 1,
cap_user_time_short : 1,
cap_____res : 58;
Than:
__u64 cap_bit0:1,
cap_bit0_is_deprecated:1,
cap_user_rdpmc:1,
cap_user_time:1,
cap_user_time_zero:1,
cap_user_time_short:1,
cap_____res:58;
So convert all bitfield definitions from the latter style to the
former style.
- Fix typos and grammar
- Fix capitalization
- Remove whitespace noise
- Harmonize the definitions of various generations and groups of
PERF_MEM_ ABI values.
- Vertically align all definitions and assignments to the same
column (48), as the first definition (enum perf_type_id),
throughout the entire header.
- And in general make the code and comments to be more in sync
with each other and to be more readable overall.
No change in functionality.

This is basically to support the new open_tree_attr syscall. But it
also needs to update asm-generic unistd.h header to get the new syscall
number. And arm64 unistd.h header was converted to use the generic
64-bit header.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls)
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in
BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream
performance up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for
an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an
additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4
namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments,
interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in
TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.

Pull VDSO infrastructure updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance
effort and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts
and implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system
timekeeping accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was
designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related
to system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

Currently BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, which does not
allow running it from user namespace. This creates a problem when
freplace program running from user namespace needs to query target
program BTF.
This patch relaxes capable check from CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_BPF and adds
support for BPF token that can be passed in attributes to syscall.

Introduce BPF instructions with load-acquire and store-release
semantics, as discussed in [1]. Define 2 new flags:
#define BPF_LOAD_ACQ 0x100
#define BPF_STORE_REL 0x110
A "load-acquire" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with the 'imm'
field set to BPF_LOAD_ACQ (0x100).
Similarly, a "store-release" is a BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC instruction with
the 'imm' field set to BPF_STORE_REL (0x110).
Unlike existing atomic read-modify-write operations that only support
BPF_W (32-bit) and BPF_DW (64-bit) size modifiers, load-acquires and
store-releases also support BPF_B (8-bit) and BPF_H (16-bit). As an
exception, however, 64-bit load-acquires/store-releases are not
supported on 32-bit architectures (to fix a build error reported by the
kernel test robot).
An 8- or 16-bit load-acquire zero-extends the value before writing it to
a 32-bit register, just like ARM64 instruction LDARH and friends.
Similar to existing atomic read-modify-write operations, misaligned
load-acquires/store-releases are not allowed (even if
BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT is set).
As an example, consider the following 64-bit load-acquire BPF
instruction (assuming little-endian):
db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00 r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))
opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ
Similarly, a 16-bit BPF store-release:
cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00 store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2)
opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX
imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL
In arch/{arm64,s390,x86}/net/bpf_jit_comp.c, have
bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) return false for the new
instructions, until the corresponding JIT compiler supports them in
arena.

Currently for bpf progs in a cgroup hierarchy, the effective prog array
is computed from bottom cgroup to upper cgroups (post-ordering). For
example, the following cgroup hierarchy
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
have BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI for both cgroup levels.
The effective cgroup array ordering looks like
p3 p4 p1 p2
and at run time, progs will execute based on that order.
But in some cases, it is desirable to have root prog executes earlier than
children progs (pre-ordering). For example,
- prog p1 intends to collect original pkt dest addresses.
- prog p3 will modify original pkt dest addresses to a proxy address for
security reason.
The end result is that prog p1 gets proxy address which is not what it
wants. Putting p1 to every child cgroup is not desirable either as it
will duplicate itself in many child cgroups. And this is exactly a use case
we are encountering in Meta.
To fix this issue, let us introduce a flag BPF_F_PREORDER. If the flag
is specified at attachment time, the prog has higher priority and the
ordering with that flag will be from top to bottom (pre-ordering).
For example, in the above example,
root cgroup: p1, p2
subcgroup: p3, p4
Let us say p2 and p4 are marked with BPF_F_PREORDER. The final
effective array ordering will be
p2 p4 p3 p1

Extend the XDP Tx metadata framework so that user can requests launch time
hardware offload, where the Ethernet device will schedule the packet for
transmission at a pre-determined time called launch time. The value of
launch time is communicated from user space to Ethernet driver via
launch_time field of struct xsk_tx_metadata.

This patch introduces a new callback in tcp_tx_timestamp() to correlate
tcp_sendmsg timestamp with timestamps from other tx timestamping
callbacks (e.g., SND/SW/ACK).
Without this patch, BPF program wouldn't know which timestamps belong
to which flow because of no socket lock protection. This new callback
is inserted in tcp_tx_timestamp() to address this issue because
tcp_tx_timestamp() still owns the same socket lock with
tcp_sendmsg_locked() in the meanwhile tcp_tx_timestamp() initializes
the timestamping related fields for the skb, especially tskey. The
tskey is the bridge to do the correlation.
For TCP, BPF program hooks the beginning of tcp_sendmsg_locked() and
then stores the sendmsg timestamp at the bpf_sk_storage, correlating
this timestamp with its tskey that are later used in other sending
timestamping callbacks.

Support hw SCM_TSTAMP_SND case for bpf timestamping.
Add a new sock_ops callback, BPF_SOCK_OPS_TSTAMP_SND_HW_CB. This
callback will occur at the same timestamping point as the user
space's hardware SCM_TSTAMP_SND. The BPF program can use it to
get the same SCM_TSTAMP_SND timestamp without modifying the
user-space application.
To avoid increasing the code complexity, replace SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP
with SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP_NOBPF instead of changing numerous callers
from driver side using SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP. The new definition of
SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP means the combination tests of socket timestamping
and bpf timestamping. After this patch, drivers can work under the
bpf timestamping.
Considering some drivers don't assign the skb with hardware
timestamp, this patch does the assignment and then BPF program
can acquire the hwstamp from skb directly.

Allow the user to configure needed_{head,tail}room for both netkit
devices. The idea is similar to 163e529200 ("veth: implement
ndo_set_rx_headroom") with the difference that the two parameters
can be specified upon device creation. By default the current behavior
stays as is which is needed_{head,tail}room is 0.
In case of Cilium, for example, the netkit devices are not enslaved
into a bridge or openvswitch device (rather, BPF-based redirection
is used out of tcx), and as such these parameters are not propagated
into the Pod's netns via peer device.
Given Cilium can run in vxlan/geneve tunneling mode (needed_headroom)
and/or be used in combination with WireGuard (needed_{head,tail}room),
allow the Cilium CNI plugin to specify these two upon netkit device
creation.

Pull hardening fix from Kees Cook:

* tag 'hardening-v6.13-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
stddef: make __struct_group() UAPI C++-friendly
For the most part of the C++ history, it couldn't have type
declarations inside anonymous unions for different reasons. At the
same time, __struct_group() relies on the latters, so when the @TAG
argument is not empty, C++ code doesn't want to build (even under
`extern "C"`):
../linux/include/uapi/linux/pkt_cls.h:25:24: error:
'struct tc_u32_sel::<unnamed union>::tc_u32_sel_hdr,' invalid;
an anonymous union may only have public non-static data members
[-fpermissive]
The safest way to fix this without trying to switch standards (which
is impossible in UAPI anyway) etc., is to disable tag declaration
for that language. This won't break anything since for now it's not
buildable at all.
Use a separate definition for __struct_group() when __cplusplus is
defined to mitigate the error, including the version from tools/.
