ba042ed644 bpf: Add support for tracing_multi link session
Adding support to use session attachment with tracing_multi link.

Adding new BPF_TRACE_FSESSION_MULTI program attach type, that follows
the BPF_TRACE_FSESSION behaviour but on the tracing_multi link.

Such program is called on entry and exit of the attached function
and allows to pass cookie value from entry to exit execution.

c1d32dea5d bpf: Add support for tracing multi link
Adding new link to allow to attach program to multiple function
BTF IDs. The link is represented by struct bpf_tracing_multi_link.

To configure the link, new fields are added to bpf_attr::link_create
to pass array of BTF IDs;

  struct {
    __aligned_u64 ids;
    __u32         cnt;
  } tracing_multi;

Each BTF ID represents function (BTF_KIND_FUNC) that the link will
attach bpf program to.

We use previously added bpf_trampoline_multi_attach/detach functions
to attach/detach the link.

The linkinfo/fdinfo callbacks will be implemented in following changes.

Note this is supported only for archs (x86_64) with ftrace direct and
have single ops support.

  CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS &&
  CONFIG_HAVE_SINGLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_OPS

Note using sort_r (instead of plain sort) in check_dup_ids, because we
will use the swap callback in following changes.

d14e6b4346 bpf: Add multi tracing attach types
Adding new program attach types multi tracing attachment:
  BPF_TRACE_FENTRY_MULTI
  BPF_TRACE_FEXIT_MULTI

and their base support in verifier code.

Programs with such attach type will use specific link attachment
interface coming in following changes.

This was suggested by Andrii some (long) time ago and turned out
to be easier than having special program flag for that.

Bpf programs with such types have 'bpf_multi_func' function set as
their attach_btf_id and keep module reference when it's specified
by attach_prog_fd.

They are also accepted as sleepable programs during verification,
and the real validation for specific BTF_IDs/functions will happen
during the multi link attachment in following changes.

f54ce06049 libperf: Document struct perf_cpu int16_t ABI limitation
struct perf_cpu.cpu is int16_t, limiting perf to 32767 CPUs.  This is
part of the libperf ABI (returned by value from perf_cpu_map__cpu() and
friends), so widening it requires an ABI bump.

Add a comment on the struct definition noting this, and create a TODO
file to collect future ABI changes so they can be batched into a single
version bump.

c7dacfb87b tools subcmd: Robust fallback and existence checks for process reaping
Update check_if_command_finished() and wait_or_whine() to handle invalid
PIDs gracefully (<= 0) by setting cmd->finished = 1 and returning early.
This avoids executing waitpid(-1, ...) or waitpid(0, ...) downstream,
which can block or reap parallel tests' exit status causing state
corruption.

Introduce a fallback mechanism in check_if_command_finished() using
waitpid(..., WNOHANG) when /proc/<pid>/status is inaccessible (e.g. due
to EMFILE/ENFILE) to safely check and reap finished children.

68018df3f5 perf: Fix off-by-one stack buffer overflow in kallsyms__parse()
In kallsyms__parse(), the loop reading symbol names iterates with i <
sizeof(symbol_name), which allows i to reach sizeof(symbol_name) upon
loop exit. The subsequent symbol_name[i] = '\0' then writes one byte
past the end of the stack-allocated symbol_name[] array.

Fix this by changing the loop bound to KSYM_NAME_LEN, so the null
terminator always lands within the array. The overflow is triggerable by
a kallsyms entry with a symbol name of KSYM_NAME_LEN+1 or more
characters (e.g., long Rust mangled names or a malicious
/proc/kallsyms).

7fef1796ec libbpf: Guard add_data() against size overflow
add_data() computes size8 = roundup(size, 8) and then hands size8 to
realloc_data_buf() before doing memcpy(gen->data_cur, data, size) with
the original size. A wrapped size8 passes through the realloc_data_buf()
INT32_MAX check. Harden this against overflow, though not realistic to
happen in practice.

60214435b3 libbpf: Skip max_entries override on signed loaders
bpf_gen__map_create() lets the host-supplied loader ctx override a
map's max_entries at runtime (map_desc[idx].max_entries, when non-zero).
This is how the light skeleton sizes maps to the target machine, but
it happens after emit_signature_match() and is covered by neither the
signed loader instructions nor the hashed blob.

For a signed loader this means an untrusted host can re-dimension the
program's maps, outside what the signature attests to. Gate the override
on gen_hash so signed loaders use the signer-provided max_entries baked
into the blob.

61e0841523 libbpf: Skip initial_value override on signed loaders
bpf_gen__map_update_elem() emits code that, when the host-supplied
loader ctx provides a non-NULL map_desc[idx].initial_value, overwrites
the blob value with bytes read from the host (bpf_copy_from_user /
bpf_probe_read_kernel) before the BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM that populates
the program's .data/.rodata/.bss maps.

This override runs after emit_signature_match() has validated map->sha[],
and initial_value is part of neither the signed loader instructions nor
the hashed data blob. For a signed loader this lets an untrusted host
substitute global-variable contents into a program whose code carries
a valid signature, thus weakening what the signature attests to.

The blob already contains the signer-provided value (added via add_data()
and covered by the embedded, signed hash), so simply skip emitting the
override for signed loaders (gen_hash). Runtime initialization stays
available for the unsigned light-skeleton path as before. The jump
offsets within the override block are internal to it, so guarding the
whole block leaves them unchanged.

0fb6c9ed64 libbpf: Reject non-exclusive metadata maps in the signed loader
The loader verifies map->sha against the metadata hash in its
instructions. map->sha is calculated when BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD is
called on the frozen map.

While the map is frozen, the /signed loader/ must also ensure the map
is exclusive, as, without exclusivity (which a hostile host could just
omit when loading the loader), another BPF program with map access can
mutate the contents afterwards, so the check passes on stale data.

With the extra check as part of the signed loader, it now refuses to
move on with map->sha validation if the host set it up wrongly.

41300d032a libbpf: Skip endianness swap when loader generation failed
bpf_gen__prog_load() byte-swaps the program insns and the {func,line}_info
and CO-RE relo blobs in place for cross-endian targets. The blob offsets
come from add_data(), which returns 0 on failure: realloc_data_buf() either
frees and NULLs gen->data_start (realloc OOM) or returns early on an
already-latched gen->error, leaving a stale, possibly too-small buffer.

Neither bswap site checked for this. With gen->swapped_endian set and a
failed generation, "gen->data_start + off" becomes NULL + 0. Guard the
same way via !gen->error so they are skipped once generation has failed.

3c5e2f1a85 libbpf: Skip hash computation when loader generation failed
bpf_gen__finish() calls compute_sha_update_offsets() gated only on
the gen_hash option, without first consulting gen->error. On a failed
generation this is buggy: a failed realloc_data_buf() sets gen->data_start
to NULL (leaving gen->data_cur dangling), so compute_sha_update_offsets()
runs libbpf_sha256() over a NULL buffer with a bogus length; a failed
realloc_insn_buf() likewise sets gen->insn_start to NULL and the hash
immediates get patched through that NULL base.

The computed program is discarded in either case, since the following
"if (!gen->error)" block does not publish opts->insns once an error is
set. Thus, skip the hash pass when generation has already failed.

e2c8826614 libbpf: Drop redundant self-loop in emit_check_err
When the cleanup-label jump offset does not fit in s16, emit_check_err()
sets gen->error = -ERANGE and then emits a BPF_JMP_IMM(BPF_JA, 0, 0, -1)
self-loop.

The latter emit() is dead: gen->error is assigned on the preceding line,
and emit() then bails out early in realloc_insn_buf() the moment gen->error
is set, so the jump is never written into the instruction stream.

gen->error alone already marks the generation as failed. This is a follow-up
to 7dd62566e0 ("libbpf: fix off-by-one in emit_signature_match jump offset")
which removed the jump in emit_signature_match() but not in other locations.

1a646a28a0 perf tools: Fix event_contains() macro to verify full field extent
event_contains() checked whether a field's start offset was within
the event (header.size > offsetof), but not whether the full field
fit.  A crafted event with header.size = offsetof(field) + 1 would
pass the check, but an 8-byte access (bswap_64, direct read) would
overrun the event boundary by up to 7 bytes.

Fix the macro to verify the complete field:

  header.size >= offsetof(field) + sizeof(field)

Also update all callers that check event_contains(time_cycles) but
access later fields (time_mask, cap_user_time_zero,
cap_user_time_short) to check for cap_user_time_short — the last
field accessed — so the entire extended block is verified:
tsc.c, arm-spe.c, cs-etm.c, jitdump.c.

Note: session.c's perf_event__time_conv_swap() also guards on
time_cycles but accesses time_mask — a pre-existing issue not
introduced by this macro change.  It is fixed by a later patch
in this series ("perf session: Add validated swap
infrastructure with null-termination checks"), which decouples
time_cycles and time_mask into independent per-field
event_contains() checks.  The struct assignment overread
(session->time_conv = event->time_conv copies sizeof on a
potentially shorter event) is separately fixed by "perf
session: Use bounded copy for PERF_RECORD_TIME_CONV".

b23705e6af libbpf: Fix UAF in strset__add_str()
strset_add_str_mem() might reallocate the strset data buffer in order to
accommodate the provided string 's'. However, if 's' points to a string
already present in the buffer, it becomes dangling after the realloc.
This leads to a use-after-free when attempting to memcpy() the string
into the new buffer.

One scenario that triggers this problematic path is when resolve_btfids
attempts to patch kfunc prototypes using existing BTF parameter names:

Compiling resolve_btfids with fsanitize=address generates a detailed

While resolve_btfids could be refactored to avoid this call path, let's
instead fix this issue at the source in strset__add_str() and avoid
similar scenarios.

Let's check if set->strs_data was reallocated and whether 's' points to
an internal string within the old strset buffer. In such case, 's' is
reconstructed to point to the new buffer.

While already here, also fix strset__find_str() which suffers from the
same problem by factoring out the common operations into a new helper
function strset_str_append().

fee9a38174 libbpf: Harden parse_vma_segs() path parsing
parse_vma_segs() in tools/lib/bpf/usdt.c parses /proc/<pid>/maps
with two widthless scansets, "%s" into mode[16] and "%[^\n]"
into line[4096]. A VMA name in maps is not limited to that local
buffer; a deeply nested backing path can produce a maps record long
enough to overflow the stack buffer.

Bound both scansets to the declared buffer sizes ("%15s" for mode[16]
and "%4095[^\n]" for line[4096]) and drain any residue past line[4094]
with "%*[^\n]" before the trailing "\n". Without the drain, the residue
of an over-long record would stay in the stream and break the next
"%zx-%zx" parse, so the loop would exit early and silently skip later
maps records.

Also stop using sscanf(..., "%s") to peel the /proc/<pid>/root prefix
from lib_path. Parse the pid and prefix length with "%n", check for the
following slash, and copy the remainder with libbpf_strlcpy(). That
removes a second unbounded stack write and preserves paths containing
spaces.

da62fc3458 tools subcmd: allow parsing distinct --opt and --no-opt
libsubcmd automatically generates for every option --opt an equivalent
negated option, --no-opt, to unset the option. Vice versa, for every
option declared as --no-opt, a shorthand --opt is declared for
convenience.

Add a flag, PARSE_OPT_NOAUTONEG, to disable this behavior. This new flag
behaves similarly to the already existing PARSE_OPT_NONEG, only it does
not reject the --no-opt variant, but leaves it undefined. That is useful
when there is a conflicting distinct --no-opt option in the syntax of
the tool.

PARSE_OPT_NOAUTONEG is enabled per-option, allowing to unset other
options that do not have this conflict.

added PARSE_OPT_OPTARG_ALLOW_NEXT flag is set.

This behavior is turned off by default since it does not make sense for
tools using non-option command line arguments. Consider the ambiguity
of "cmd -d x", where "-d x" can mean either "-d with argument of x" or
"-d without argument, followed by non-option argument x". This is not an
issue in the case that the tool takes no non-option arguments.

To implement this, a new local variable, force_defval, is created in
get_value(), along with a comment explaining the logic.

The offset for the cleanup-label jump is computed before the MOV R7
instruction is emitted, but the JMP lands after it. Account for the
extra insn in the offset calculation (-2 instead of -1). Drop the
redundant self-loop in the else branch; gen->error = -ERANGE already

There should be an OPTS_VALID() check for log_opts before extracting its

If no such OPTS_VALID() check and an application compiled against a future
libbpf header passes a log_opts with new, non-zero fields to libbpf.so,
those fields will be ignored silently.

46d9c16115 scripts/kernel-doc: Detect mismatched inline member documentation tags
Add validation in check_sections() to verify that inline member
documentation tags (/** @member: description */) match actual struct/union
member names. Previously, kernel-doc only validated section headers against
the parameter list, but inline doc tags stored in parameterdescs were never
cross-checked, allowing stale or mistyped member names to go undetected.

The new check iterates over parameterdescs keys and warns about any that
don't appear in the parameter list, catching issues like renamed struct
members where the documentation tag was not updated to match.

This catches real issues such as:
  - xe_bo_types.h: @atomic_access (missing struct prefix, should be
    @attr.atomic_access)
  - xe_device_types.h: @usm.asid (member is actually asid_to_vm)

While at it, fix two long-standing issues with named variadic parameters
(macros like ``#define foo(fmt, args...)``) that the new check exposed:

  1. A description provided via the ``@args...:`` doc form was stored
     in parameterdescs under the unstripped key ``args...``, while
     push_parameter() stripped the trailing ``...`` and only added
     ``args`` to parameterlist.  As a result the user-supplied
     description was orphaned, parameterdescs[``args``] was auto-
     populated with the generic "variable arguments" text, and the
     user's actual description was silently discarded by the output
     stage.  Migrate the description from the unstripped to the
     stripped key inside push_parameter() so the user's text reaches
     the output and the new check does not flag the orphaned key.

  2. push_parameter() always auto-populated parameterdescs[param] with
     "variable arguments" for variadic parameters, which bypassed the
     existing "parameter not described" warning at line 549.  As a
     consequence, a named variadic with no matching ``@<name>:`` doc
     tag (or a mistyped one such as ``@args:`` for a parameter named
     ``arg``) went undetected.  Emit the standard "not described"
     warning for named variadics before applying the auto-fill, so
     missing or mistyped variadic docs are reported just like missing
     docs for any other parameter.  The bare ``@...:`` form is
     unaffected because it has no natural name for the user to
     document.

This second hunk surfaces one real pre-existing documentation gap in
include/linux/hashtable.h: hash_for_each_possible_rcu()'s ``cond...``
parameter has no matching ``@cond:`` doc entry.  No false positives were
observed across include/linux, kernel/, or drivers/gpu/drm.

v2: Skip variadic parameters whose documented key ends with ``...`` and
    whose stripped name is in parameterlist, to avoid false-positive
    "Excess function parameter 'args...'" warnings on macros like
    ``#define foo(fmt, args...)`` documented with ``@args...:``.

v3: The v2 special case in check_sections() only suppressed the warning
    while still letting the user's description be silently dropped from
    the generated output.  Replace it with a fix in push_parameter() that
    migrates the description from ``args...`` to ``args`` when the name
    is stripped, so the user's text is preserved end-to-end and the
    new excess-parameter check naturally finds nothing to flag.

v4: Also emit the standard "parameter not described" warning for named
    variadics that have no matching ``@<name>:`` doc tag.  Previously
    push_parameter()'s unconditional auto-fill bypassed that warning,
    so a missing or mistyped variadic doc went undetected. (Randy)

8bf5a177c3 docs: kernel-doc: python: strip __counted_by_ptr macro
The `__counted_by_ptr` macro was recently introduced [1] to extend
bounds checking semantics to standard dynamically allocated pointers.

However, the new Python implementation of kernel-doc does not currently
recognize it as a compiler attribute. When kernel-doc encounters a
struct member annotated with this macro, it fails to parse the variable
name correctly, resulting in false-positive warnings like:

  Warning: ... struct member '__counted_by_ptr(cmdcnt' not described

Add `__counted_by_ptr` to the `struct_xforms` regex list so it gets
safely stripped out during the parsing phase, mirroring the existing
behavior for `__counted_by`. Update the corresponding unit tests.

0831b110eb libbpf: Fix deduplication of typedef with base definitions
When deduplicating definitions for a module, typedef defined in the base
are not removed. This is because the hash used for base types differs
from the one used in the deduplication logic in btf_dedup_struct_type.

This was introduced by the referenced commit when moving the typedef
deduplication logic handling from btf_dedup_ref_type to
btf_dedup_struct_type, as this also changed the hash logic
(btf_hash_common to btf_hash_typedef).

This also impacts other types referencing those typedef (e.g. const). In
my test, the BTF section size of the openvswitch module went from 31KB
to 45KB.

libbpf: Report error when a negative kprobe offset is specified
In attach_kprobe(), the parsing logic uses sscanf() to extract the
target function name and offset from the section definition. Currently,
if a user specifies a negative offset (e.g., SEC("kprobe/func+-100")),
the input is not explicitly caught and reported as an error.

This commit updates the logic to explicitly notify the user when a
negative integer is provided. To facilitate this check, the offset
variable is changed from unsigned long to long so that sscanf()
can accurately capture a negative input for evaluation.

If a negative offset is detected, the loader will now print an
informative warning stating that the offset must be non-negative,
and return -EINVAL.

Additionally, free(func) is called in this new error path to prevent
a memory leak, as the function name string is dynamically allocated
by sscanf().

   - Support flat layout for symfs. The --symfs option is to specify the
     location of debugging symbol files. The default 'hierarchy' layout
     would search the symbol file using the same path of the original
     file under the symfs root. The new 'flat' layout would search only
     in the root directory.

   - Update 'simd' sort key for ARM SIMD flags to cover ASE/SME and more
     predicate flags.

  perf stat:

   - Add --pmu-filter option to select specific PMUs. This would be
     useful when you measure metrics from multiple instance of uncore
     PMUs with similar names.

380044c40b libbpf: Prevent double close and leak of btf objects
Sashiko found possible double close of btf object fd [1],
which happens when strdup in load_module_btfs fails at which
point the obj->btf_module_cnt is already incremented.

The error path close btf fd and so does later cleanup code in
bpf_object_post_load_cleanup function.

Also libbpf_ensure_mem failure leaves btf object not assigned
and it's leaked.

Replacing the err_out label with break to make the error path
less confusing as suggested by Alan.

Incrementing obj->btf_module_cnt only if there's no failure
and releasing btf object in error path.

 - Welcome new BPF maintainers: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Eduard
   Zingerman while Martin KaFai Lau reduced his load to Reviwer.

 - Lots of fixes everywhere from many first time contributors. Thank you
   All.

 - Diff stat is dominated by mechanical split of verifier.c into
   multiple components:

    - backtrack.c: backtracking logic and jump history
    - states.c:    state equivalence
    - cfg.c:       control flow graph, postorder, strongly connected
                   components
    - liveness.c:  register and stack liveness
    - fixups.c:    post-verification passes: instruction patching, dead
                   code removal, bpf_loop inlining, finalize fastcall

   8k line were moved. verifier.c still stands at 20k lines.

   Further refactoring is planned for the next release.

 - Replace dynamic stack liveness with static stack liveness based on
   data flow analysis.

   This improved the verification time by 2x for some programs and
   equally reduced memory consumption. New logic is in liveness.c and
   supported by constant folding in const_fold.c (Eduard Zingerman,

1c22483a2c bpf: reject negative CO-RE accessor indices in bpf_core_parse_spec()
CO-RE accessor strings are colon-separated indices that describe a path
from a root BTF type to a target field, e.g. "0:1:2" walks through
nested struct members. bpf_core_parse_spec() parses each component with
sscanf("%d"), so negative values like -1 are silently accepted.  The
subsequent bounds checks (access_idx >= btf_vlen(t)) only guard the
upper bound and always pass for negative values because C integer
promotion converts the __u16 btf_vlen result to int, making the
comparison (int)(-1) >= (int)(N) false for any positive N.

When -1 reaches btf_member_bit_offset() it gets cast to u32 0xffffffff,
producing an out-of-bounds read far past the members array.  A crafted
BPF program with a negative CO-RE accessor on any struct that exists in
vmlinux BTF (e.g. task_struct) crashes the kernel deterministically
during BPF_PROG_LOAD on any system with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y
(default on major distributions).  The bug is reachable with CAP_BPF:

 BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffed11818b6626

CO-RE accessor indices are inherently non-negative (struct member index,
array element index, or enumerator index), so reject them immediately
after parsing.

6bc0987d0b mm/vma: add vma_flags_empty(), vma_flags_and(), vma_flags_diff_pair()
Patch series "mm/vma: convert vm_flags_t to vma_flags_t in vma code", v4.

This series converts a lot of the existing use of the legacy vm_flags_t
data type to the new vma_flags_t type which replaces it.

In order to do so it adds a number of additional helpers:

* vma_flags_empty() - Determines whether a vma_flags_t value has no bits
  set.

* vma_flags_and() - Performs a bitwise AND between two vma_flags_t values.

* vma_flags_diff_pair() - Determines which flags are not shared between a
  pair of VMA flags (typically non-constant values)

* append_vma_flags() - Similar to mk_vma_flags(), but allows a vma_flags_t
  value to be specified (typically a constant value) which will be copied
  and appended to to create a new vma_flags_t value, with additional flags
  specified to append to it.

* vma_flags_same() - Determines if a vma_flags_t value is exactly equal to
  a set of VMA flags.

* vma_flags_same_mask() - Determines if a vma_flags_t value is eactly equal
  to another vma_flags_t value (typically constant).

* vma_flags_same_pair() - Determines if a pair of vma_flags_t values are
  exactly equal to one another (typically both non-constant).

* vma_flags_to_legacy() - Converts a vma_flags_t value to a vm_flags_t
  value, used to enable more iterative introduction of the use of
  vma_flags_t.

* legacy_to_vma_flags() - Converts a vm_flags_t value to a vma_flags-t
  value, for the same purpose.

* vma_flags_test_single_mask() - Tests whether a vma_flags_t value contain
  the single flag specified in an input vma_flags_t flag mask, or if that
  flag mask is empty, is defined to return false. Useful for
  config-predicated VMA flag mask defines.

* vma_test() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain a specific singular VMA
  flag.

* vma_test_any() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain any of a set of VMA
  flags.

* vma_test_any_mask() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain any of the
  flags specified in another, typically constant, vma_flags_t value.

* vma_test_single_mask() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain the single
  flag specified in an input vma_flags_t flag mask, or if that flag mask is
  empty, is defined to return false. Useful for config-predicated VMA flag
  mask defines.

* vma_clear_flags() - Clears a specific set of VMA flags from a vma_flags_t
  value.

* vma_clear_flags_mask() - Clears those flag set in a vma_flags_t value
  (typically constant) from a (typically not constant) vma_flags_t value.

The series mostly focuses on the the VMA specific code, especially that
contained in mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h.

It updates both brk() and mmap() logic to utils vma_flags_t values as much
as is practiaclly possible at this point, changing surrounding logic to be
able to do so.

It also updates the vma_modify_xxx() functions where they interact with VMA
flags directly to use vm_flags_t values where possible.

There is extensive testing added in the VMA userland tests to assert that
all of these new VMA flag functions work correctly.


This patch (of 25):

Firstly, add the ability to determine if VMA flags are empty, that is no
flags are set in a vma_flags_t value.

Next, add the ability to obtain the equivalent of the bitwise and of two
vma_flags_t values, via vma_flags_and_mask().

Next, add the ability to obtain the difference between two sets of VMA
flags, that is the equivalent to the exclusive bitwise OR of the two sets
of flags, via vma_flags_diff_pair().

vma_flags_xxx_mask() typically operates on a pointer to a vma_flags_t
value, which is assumed to be an lvalue of some kind (such as a field in a
struct or a stack variable) and an rvalue of some kind (typically a
constant set of VMA flags obtained e.g.  via mk_vma_flags() or
equivalent).

However vma_flags_diff_pair() is intended to operate on two lvalues, so
use the _pair() suffix to make this clear.

Finally, update VMA userland tests to add these helpers.

We also port bitmap_xor() and __bitmap_xor() to the tools/ headers and
source to allow the tests to work with vma_flags_diff_pair().

e1621c7528 libbpf: Clarify raw-address single kprobe attach behavior
bpf_program__attach_kprobe_opts() documents single-kprobe attach
through func_name, with an optional offset. For the PMU-based path,
func_name = NULL with an absolute address in offset already works as
well, but that is not described in the API.

This commit clarifies this existing non-legacy behavior. For PMU-based
attach, callers can use func_name = NULL with an absolute address in
offset as the raw-address form. For legacy tracefs/debugfs kprobes,
reject this form explicitly.

1cc96e0e20 libbpf: Fix BTF handling in bpf_program__clone()
Align bpf_program__clone() with bpf_object_load_prog() by gating
BTF func/line info on FEAT_BTF_FUNC kernel support, and resolve
caller-provided prog_btf_fd before checking obj->btf so that callers
with their own BTF can use clone() even when the object has no BTF
loaded.

While at it, treat func_info and line_info fields as atomic groups
to prevent mismatches between pointer and count from different sources.

Move bpf_program__clone() to libbpf 1.8.

83c338369a libperf cpumap: Make index and nr types unsigned
The index into the cpumap array and the number of entries within the
array can never be negative, so let's make them unsigned. This is
prompted by reports that gcc 13 with -O6 is giving a
alloc-size-larger-than errors. The change makes the cpumap changes and
then updates the declaration of index variables throughout perf and
libperf to be unsigned. The two things are hard to separate as
compiler warnings about mixing signed and unsigned types breaks the
build.

081677d03d libbpf: Support sanitization of BTF layout for older kernels
Add a FEAT_BTF_LAYOUT feature check which checks if the
kernel supports BTF layout information.  Also sanitize
BTF if it contains layout data but the kernel does not
support it.  The sanitization requires rewriting raw
BTF data to update the header and eliminate the layout
section (since it lies between the types and strings),
so refactor sanitization to do the raw BTF retrieval
and creation of updated BTF, returning that new BTF
on success.

087f3964f4 libbpf: Support layout section handling in BTF
Support reading in layout fixing endian issues on reading;
also support writing layout section to raw BTF object.
There is not yet an API to populate the layout with meaningful
information.

As part of this, we need to consider multiple valid BTF header
sizes; the original or the layout-extended headers.
So to support this, the "struct btf" representation is modified
to contain a "struct btf_header" and we copy the valid
portion from the raw data to it; this means we can always safely
check fields like btf->hdr.layout_len .

Note if parsed-in BTF has extra header information beyond
sizeof(struct btf_header) - if so we make that BTF ineligible
for modification by setting btf->has_hdr_extra .

Ensure that we handle endianness issues for BTF layout section,
though currently only field that needs this (flags) is unused.

2f07ddbd57 docs: xforms_lists: better evaluate struct_group macros
The previous approach were to unwind nested structs/unions.

Now that we have a logic that can handle it well, use it to
ensure that struct_group macros will properly reflect the
actual struct.

Note that the replacemend logic still simplifies the code
a little bit, as the basic build block for struct group is:

	union { \
		struct { MEMBERS } ATTRS; \
		struct __struct_group_tag(TAG) { MEMBERS } ATTRS NAME; \
	} ATTRS

There:

- ATTRS is meant to add extra macro attributes like __packed
  which we already discard, as they aren't relevant to
  document struct members;

- TAG is used only when built with __cplusplus.

So, instead, convert them into just:

    struct { MEMBERS };

Please notice that here, we're using the greedy version of the
backrefs, as MEMBERS is actually MEMBERS... on all such macros.

f1cf9f7cd6 docs: kdoc: create a CMatch to match nested C blocks
The NextMatch code is complex, and will become even more complex
if we add there support for arguments.

Now that we have a tokenizer, we can use a better solution,
easier to be understood.

Yet, to improve performance, it is better to make it use a
previously tokenized code, changing its ABI.

So, reimplement NextMatch using the CTokener class. Once it
is done, we can drop NestedMatch.

b1e64e30fc docs: kdoc: don't add broken comments inside prototypes
Parsing a file like drivers/scsi/isci/host.h, which contains
broken kernel-doc markups makes it create a prototype that contains
unmatched end comments.

That causes, for instance, struct sci_power_control to be shown this
this prototype:

    struct sci_power_control {
        * it is not. */ bool timer_started;
        */ struct sci_timer timer;
        * requesters field. */ u8 phys_waiting;
        */ u8 phys_granted_power;
        * mapped into requesters via struct sci_phy.phy_index */ struct isci_phy *requesters[SCI_MAX_PHYS];
    };

as comments won't start with "/*" anymore.

Fix the logic to detect such cases, and keep adding the comments
inside it.

970bd2dced libbpf: Introduce bpf_program__clone()
Add bpf_program__clone() API that loads a single BPF program from a
prepared BPF object into the kernel, returning a file descriptor owned
by the caller.

After bpf_object__prepare(), callers can use bpf_program__clone() to
load individual programs with custom bpf_prog_load_opts, instead of
loading all programs at once via bpf_object__load(). Non-zero fields in
opts override the defaults derived from the program and object
internals; passing NULL opts populates everything automatically.
