Yonghong Song 63d78b7e8c selftests/bpf: Workaround verification failure for fexit_bpf2bpf/func_replace_return_code
With latest llvm17, selftest fexit_bpf2bpf/func_replace_return_code
has the following verification failure:

  0: R1=ctx(off=0,imm=0) R10=fp0
  ; int connect_v4_prog(struct bpf_sock_addr *ctx)
  0: (bf) r7 = r1                       ; R1=ctx(off=0,imm=0) R7_w=ctx(off=0,imm=0)
  1: (b4) w6 = 0                        ; R6_w=0
  ; memset(&tuple.ipv4.saddr, 0, sizeof(tuple.ipv4.saddr));
  ...
  ; return do_bind(ctx) ? 1 : 0;

The corresponding source code:

  __attribute__ ((noinline))
  int do_bind(struct bpf_sock_addr *ctx)
  {
        struct sockaddr_in sa = {};

        sa.sin_family = AF_INET;
        sa.sin_port = bpf_htons(0);
        sa.sin_addr.s_addr = bpf_htonl(SRC_REWRITE_IP4);

        if (bpf_bind(ctx, (struct sockaddr *)&sa, sizeof(sa)) != 0)
                return 0;

        return 1;
  }
  ...
  SEC("cgroup/connect4")
  int connect_v4_prog(struct bpf_sock_addr *ctx)
  {
  ...
        return do_bind(ctx) ? 1 : 0;
  }

Insn 180 is a call to 'do_bind'. The call's return value is also the return value
for the program. Since do_bind() returns 0/1, so it is legitimate for compiler to
optimize 'return do_bind(ctx) ? 1 : 0' to 'return do_bind(ctx)'. However, such
optimization breaks verifier as the return value of 'do_bind()' is marked as any
scalar which violates the requirement of prog return value 0/1.

There are two ways to fix this problem, (1) changing 'return 1' in do_bind() to
e.g. 'return 10' so the compiler has to do 'do_bind(ctx) ? 1 :0', or (2)
suggested by Andrii, marking do_bind() with __weak attribute so the compiler
cannot make any assumption on do_bind() return value.

This patch adopted adding __weak approach which is simpler and more resistant
to potential compiler optimizations.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
