Pull char/misc driver fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are some binder, habanalabs, and vboxguest driver fixes for
5.1-rc3.
The Binder fixes resolve some reported issues found by testing, first
by the selinux developers, and then earlier today by syzbot.
The habanalabs fixes are all minor, resolving a number of tiny things.
The vboxguest patches are a bit larger. They resolve the fact that
virtual box decided to change their api in their latest release in a
way that broke the existing kernel code, despite saying that they were
never going to do that. So this is a bit of a "new feature", but is
good to get merged so that 5.1 will work with the latest release. The
changes are not large and of course virtual box "swears" they will not
break this again, but no one is holding their breath here.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported <asm/kvm_para.h> to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.
We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support
[B] Match the header export of <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h>
to the KVM support
My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].
So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, <asm/kvm_para.h> was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.
After this commit, there will be two groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86
[2] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,
nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensa

VirtualBox 6.0.x has a new feature where the guest kernel driver passes
info about the origin of the request (e.g. userspace or kernelspace) to
the hypervisor.
If we do not pass this information then when running the 6.0.x userspace
guest-additions tools on a 6.0.x host, some requests will get denied
with a VERR_VERSION_MISMATCH error, breaking vboxservice.service and
the mounting of shared folders marked to be auto-mounted.
This commit implements passing the requestor info to the host, fixing this.

Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.
um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
the processes they refer to.
With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.
With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
quite handy.
There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
the future once they are needed.
This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
a pidfd.
Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:
https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/
The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting
the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"
* tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux:

Add documentation for the BPF spinlock-related helpers to the doc in
bpf.h. I added the constraints and restrictions coming with the use of
spinlocks for BPF: not all of it is directly related to the use of the
helper, but I thought it would be nice for users to find them in the man
page.
This list of restrictions is nearly a verbatim copy of the list in
Alexei's commit log for those helpers.

Another round of minor fixes for the documentation of the BPF helpers
located in the UAPI bpf.h header file. Changes include:
- Moving around description of some helpers, to keep the descriptions in
the same order as helpers are declared (bpf_map_push_elem(), leftover
from commit 90b1023f68c7 ("bpf: fix documentation for eBPF helpers"),
bpf_rc_keydown(), and bpf_skb_ancestor_cgroup_id()).
- Fixing typos ("contex" -> "context").
- Harmonising return types ("void* " -> "void *", "uint64_t" -> "u64").
- Addition of the "bpf_" prefix to bpf_get_storage().
- Light additions of RST markup on some keywords.
- Empty line deletion between description and return value for
bpf_tcp_sock().
- Edit for the description for bpf_skb_ecn_set_ce() (capital letters,
acronym expansion, no effect if ECT not set, more details on return
value).

Add a new helper "struct bpf_sock *bpf_get_listener_sock(struct bpf_sock *sk)"
which returns a bpf_sock in TCP_LISTEN state. It will trace back to
the listener sk from a request_sock if possible. It returns NULL
for all other cases.
No reference is taken because the helper ensures the sk is
in SOCK_RCU_FREE (where the TCP_LISTEN sock should be in).
Hence, bpf_sk_release() is unnecessary and the verifier does not
allow bpf_sk_release(listen_sk) to be called either.
The following is also allowed because the bpf_prog is run under
rcu_read_lock():
sk = bpf_sk_lookup_tcp();
/* if (!sk) { ... } */
listen_sk = bpf_get_listener_sock(sk);
/* if (!listen_sk) { ... } */
bpf_sk_release(sk);

It is safe to include that header here, since it only contains kernel

It's still possible that some related build failures remain, but those

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Update bio-based DM core to always call blk_queue_split() and update
DM targets to properly advertise discard limits that
blk_queue_split() looks at when dtermining to split discard. Whereby
allowing DM core's own 'split_discard_bios' to be removed.
- Improve DM cache target to provide support for discard passdown to
the origin device.
- Introduce support to directly boot to a DM mapped device from init by
using dm-mod.create= module param. This eliminates the need for an
elaborate initramfs that is otherwise needed to create DM devices.
This feature's implementation has been worked on for quite some time
(got up to v12) and is of particular interest to Android and other
more embedded platforms (e.g. ARM).
- Rate limit errors from the DM integrity target that were identified
as the cause for recent NMI hangs due to console limitations.
- Add sanity checks for user input to thin-pool and external snapshot
creation.
- Remove some unused leftover kmem caches from when old .request_fn
request-based support was removed.
- Various small cleanups and fixes to targets (e.g. typos, needless
unlikely() annotations, use struct_size(), remove needless
.direct_access method from dm-snapshot)

Pull io_uring IO interface from Jens Axboe:
"Second attempt at adding the io_uring interface.
Since the first one, we've added basic unit testing of the three
system calls, that resides in liburing like the other unit tests that
we have so far. It'll take a while to get full coverage of it, but
we're working towards it. I've also added two basic test programs to
tools/io_uring. One uses the raw interface and has support for all the
various features that io_uring supports outside of standard IO, like
fixed files, fixed IO buffers, and polled IO. The other uses the
liburing API, and is a simplified version of cp(1).
This adds support for a new IO interface, io_uring.
io_uring allows an application to communicate with the kernel through
two rings, the submission queue (SQ) and completion queue (CQ) ring.
This allows for very efficient handling of IOs, see the v5 posting for
some basic numbers:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20190116175003.17880-1-axboe@kernel.dk/
Outside of just efficiency, the interface is also flexible and
extendable, and allows for future use cases like the upcoming NVMe
key-value store API, networked IO, and so on. It also supports async
buffered IO, something that we've always failed to support in the
kernel.
Outside of basic IO features, it supports async polled IO as well.
This particular feature has already been tested at Facebook months ago
for flash storage boxes, with 25-33% improvements. It makes polled IO
actually useful for real world use cases, where even basic flash sees
a nice win in terms of efficiency, latency, and performance. These
boxes were IOPS bound before, now they are not.
This series adds three new system calls. One for setting up an
io_uring instance (io_uring_setup(2)), one for submitting/completing
IO (io_uring_enter(2)), and one for aux functions like registrating
file sets, buffers, etc (io_uring_register(2)). Through the help of
Arnd, I've coordinated the syscall numbers so merge on that front
should be painless.
Jon did a writeup of the interface a while back, which (except for
minor details that have been tweaked) is still accurate. Find that
here:
https://lwn.net/Articles/776703/
Huge thanks to Al Viro for helping getting the reference cycle code
correct, and to Jann Horn for his extensive reviews focused on both
security and bugs in general.
There's a userspace library that provides basic functionality for
applications that don't need or want to care about how to fiddle with
the rings directly. It has helpers to allow applications to easily set
up an io_uring instance, and submit/complete IO through it without
knowing about the intricacies of the rings. It also includes man pages
(thanks to Jeff Moyer), and will continue to grow support helper
functions and features as time progresses. Find it here:
git://git.kernel.dk/liburing
Fio has full support for the raw interface, both in the form of an IO
engine (io_uring), but also with a small test application (t/io_uring)

Large enterprise clients often run applications out of networked file
systems where the IT mandated layout of project volumes can end up
leading to paths that are longer than 128 characters. Bumping this up
to the next order of two solves this problem in all but the most
egregious case while still fitting into a 512b slab.

Add an autofs file system mount option that can be used to provide a
generic indicator to applications that the mount entry should be ignored
when displaying mount information.
In other OSes that provide autofs and that provide a mount list to user
space based on the kernel mount list a no-op mount option ("ignore" is
the one use on the most common OS) is allowed so that autofs file system
users can optionally use it.
The idea is that it be used by user space programs to exclude autofs
mounts from consideration when reading the mounts list.
Prior to the change to link /etc/mtab to /proc/self/mounts all I needed
to do to achieve this was to use mount(2) and not update the mtab but
now that no longer works.
I know the symlinking happened a long time ago and I considered doing
this then but, at the time I couldn't remember the commonly used option
name and thought persuading the various utility maintainers would be too
hard.
But now I have a RHEL request to do this for compatibility for a widely
used product so I want to go ahead with it and try and enlist the help
of some utility package maintainers.
Clearly, without the option nothing can be done so it's at least a
start.

<linux/kernel.h> tends to be cluttered because we often put various sort
of unrelated stuff in it. So, we have split out a sensible chunk of
code into a separate header from time to time.
This commit splits out the *_MAX and *_MIN defines.
The standard header <limits.h> contains various MAX, MIN constants
including numerial limits. [1]
I think it makes sense to move in-kernel MAX, MIN constants into
include/linux/limits.h.
We already have include/uapi/linux/limits.h to contain some user-space
constants. I changed its include guard to _UAPI_LINUX_LIMITS_H. This
change has no impact to the user-space because
scripts/headers_install.sh rips off the '_UAPI' prefix from the include
guards of exported headers.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"This contains usual mix of new features, core changes and fixes; full
list below. I'm planning second pull request, with a few more fixes
that arrived recently but too close to merge window, will send it next
week.
New features:
- support zstd compression levels
- new ioctl to unregister a device from the module (ie. reverse of
device scan)
- scrub prints a message to log when it's about to start or finish
Core changes:
- qgroups can now skip part of a tree that does not get updated
during relocation, because this does not affect the quota
accounting, estimated speedup in run time is about 20%
- the compression workspace management had to be enhanced due to zstd
requirements
- various enospc fixes, when there's high fragmentation the
over-reservation can cause ENOSPC that might not happen after a
flush, in such cases try to wait if the situation improves
Fixes:
- various ioctls could overwrite previous return value if
copy_to_user fails, fix this so the original error is reported
- more reclaim vs GFP_KERNEL fixes
- other cleanups and refactoring
- fix a (valid) lockdep warning in a test when device replace is
destroying worker threads
- make qgroup async transaction commit more aggressive, this avoids
some 'quota limit reached' errors if there are not enough data to
trigger transaction in order to flush
- fix deadlock between snapshot deletion and quotas when backref
walking is called from context that already holds the same locks
- fsync fixes:
- fix fsync after succession of renames of different files
- fix fsync after succession of renames and unlink/rmdir"

This is basically a direct port of bfe4037e722e, which implements a
one-shot poll command through aio. Description below is based on that
commit as well. However, instead of adding a POLL command and relying
on io_cancel(2) to remove it, we mimic the epoll(2) interface of
having a command to add a poll notification, IORING_OP_POLL_ADD,
and one to remove it again, IORING_OP_POLL_REMOVE.
To poll for a file descriptor the application should submit an sqe of
type IORING_OP_POLL. It will poll the fd for the events specified in the
poll_events field.
Unlike poll or epoll without EPOLLONESHOT this interface always works in
one shot mode, that is once the sqe is completed, it will have to be
resubmitted.

Android uses ashmem for sharing memory regions. We are looking forward
to migrating all usecases of ashmem to memfd so that we can possibly
remove the ashmem driver in the future from staging while also
benefiting from using memfd and contributing to it. Note staging
drivers are also not ABI and generally can be removed at anytime.
One of the main usecases Android has is the ability to create a region
and mmap it as writeable, then add protection against making any
"future" writes while keeping the existing already mmap'ed
writeable-region active. This allows us to implement a usecase where
receivers of the shared memory buffer can get a read-only view, while
the sender continues to write to the buffer. See CursorWindow
documentation in Android for more details:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/CursorWindow
This usecase cannot be implemented with the existing F_SEAL_WRITE seal.
To support the usecase, this patch adds a new F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal
which prevents any future mmap and write syscalls from succeeding while
keeping the existing mmap active.
A better way to do F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal was discussed [1] last week
where we don't need to modify core VFS structures to get the same
behavior of the seal. This solves several side-effects pointed by Andy.
self-tests are provided in later patch to verify the expected semantics.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181111173650.GA256781@google.com/

PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

The kill() syscall operates on process identifiers (pid). After a process
has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a
signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. This
issue has often surfaced and there has been a push to address this problem [1].
This patch uses file descriptors (fd) from proc/<pid> as stable handles on
struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. The fd
can be used to send signals to the process it refers to.
Thus, the new syscall pidfd_send_signal() is introduced to solve this
problem. Instead of pids it operates on process fds (pidfd).
/* prototype and argument /*
long pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags);
/* syscall number 424 */
The syscall number was chosen to be 424 to align with Arnd's rework in his
y2038 to minimize merge conflicts (cf. [25]).
In addition to the pidfd and signal argument it takes an additional
siginfo_t and flags argument. If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then
pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to kill(<positive-pid>, <signal>). If it
is not NULL pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo().
The flags argument is added to allow for future extensions of this syscall.
It currently needs to be passed as 0. Failing to do so will cause EINVAL.
/* pidfd_send_signal() replaces multiple pid-based syscalls */
The pidfd_send_signal() syscall currently takes on the job of
rt_sigqueueinfo(2) and parts of the functionality of kill(2), Namely, when a
positive pid is passed to kill(2). It will however be possible to also
replace tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) if this syscall is extended.
/* sending signals to threads (tid) and process groups (pgid) */
Specifically, the pidfd_send_signal() syscall does currently not operate on
process groups or threads. This is left for future extensions.
In order to extend the syscall to allow sending signal to threads and
process groups appropriately named flags (e.g. PIDFD_TYPE_PGID, and
PIDFD_TYPE_TID) should be added. This implies that the flags argument will
determine what is signaled and not the file descriptor itself. Put in other
words, grouping in this api is a property of the flags argument not a
property of the file descriptor (cf. [13]). Clarification for this has been
requested by Eric (cf. [19]).
When appropriate extensions through the flags argument are added then
pidfd_send_signal() can additionally replace the part of kill(2) which
operates on process groups as well as the tgkill(2) and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) syscalls.
How such an extension could be implemented has been very roughly sketched
in [14], [15], and [16]. However, this should not be taken as a commitment
to a particular implementation. There might be better ways to do it.
Right now this is intentionally left out to keep this patchset as simple as
possible (cf. [4]).
/* naming */
The syscall had various names throughout iterations of this patchset:
- procfd_signal()
- procfd_send_signal()
- taskfd_send_signal()
In the last round of reviews it was pointed out that given that if the
flags argument decides the scope of the signal instead of different types
of fds it might make sense to either settle for "procfd_" or "pidfd_" as
prefix. The community was willing to accept either (cf. [17] and [18]).
Given that one developer expressed strong preference for the "pidfd_"
prefix (cf. [13]) and with other developers less opinionated about the name
we should settle for "pidfd_" to avoid further bikeshedding.
The "_send_signal" suffix was chosen to reflect the fact that the syscall
takes on the job of multiple syscalls. It is therefore intentional that the
name is not reminiscent of neither kill(2) nor rt_sigqueueinfo(2). Not the
fomer because it might imply that pidfd_send_signal() is a replacement for
kill(2), and not the latter because it is a hassle to remember the correct
spelling - especially for non-native speakers - and because it is not
descriptive enough of what the syscall actually does. The name
"pidfd_send_signal" makes it very clear that its job is to send signals.
/* zombies */
Zombies can be signaled just as any other process. No special error will be
reported since a zombie state is an unreliable state (cf. [3]). However,
this can be added as an extension through the @flags argument if the need
ever arises.
/* cross-namespace signals */
The patch currently enforces that the signaler and signalee either are in
the same pid namespace or that the signaler's pid namespace is an ancestor
of the signalee's pid namespace. This is done for the sake of simplicity
and because it is unclear to what values certain members of struct
siginfo_t would need to be set to (cf. [5], [6]).
/* compat syscalls */
It became clear that we would like to avoid adding compat syscalls
(cf. [7]). The compat syscall handling is now done in kernel/signal.c
itself by adding __copy_siginfo_from_user_generic() which lets us avoid
compat syscalls (cf. [8]). It should be noted that the addition of
__copy_siginfo_from_user_any() is caused by a bug in the original
implementation of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) (cf. 12).
With upcoming rework for syscall handling things might improve
significantly (cf. [11]) and __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() will not gain
any additional callers.
/* testing */
This patch was tested on x64 and x86.
/* userspace usage */
An asciinema recording for the basic functionality can be found under [9].

Q-01: (Florian Weimer [20], Andrew Morton [21])
What happens when the target process has exited?
A-01: Sending the signal will fail with ESRCH (cf. [22]).
Q-02: (Andrew Morton [21])
Is the task_struct pinned by the fd?
A-02: No. A reference to struct pid is kept. struct pid - as far as I
understand - was created exactly for the reason to not require to
pin struct task_struct (cf. [22]).
Q-03: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the entire procfs directory remain visible? Just one entry
within it?
A-03: The same thing that happens right now when you hold a file descriptor
to /proc/<pid> open (cf. [22]).

Does the pid remain reserved?
A-04: No. This patchset guarantees a stable handle not that pids are not
recycled (cf. [22]).
Q-05: (Andrew Morton [21])
Do attempts to signal that fd return errors?
A-05: See {Q,A}-01.
Q-06: (Andrew Morton [22])
Is there a cleaner way of obtaining the fd? Another syscall perhaps.
A-06: Userspace can already trivially retrieve file descriptors from procfs
so this is something that we will need to support anyway. Hence,
there's no immediate need to add another syscalls just to make
pidfd_send_signal() not dependent on the presence of procfs. However,
adding a syscalls to get such file descriptors is planned for a
future patchset (cf. [22]).
Q-07: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
This fd-for-a-process sounds like a handy thing and people may well
think up other uses for it in the future, probably unrelated to
signals. Are the code and the interface designed to permit such
future applications?
A-07: Yes (cf. [22]).
Q-08: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
Now I think about it, why a new syscall? This thing is looking
rather like an ioctl?
A-08: This has been extensively discussed. It was agreed that a syscall is
preferred for a variety or reasons. Here are just a few taken from
prior threads. Syscalls are safer than ioctl()s especially when
signaling to fds. Processes are a core kernel concept so a syscall
seems more appropriate. The layout of the syscall with its four
arguments would require the addition of a custom struct for the
ioctl() thereby causing at least the same amount or even more
complexity for userspace than a simple syscall. The new syscall will
replace multiple other pid-based syscalls (see description above).
The file-descriptors-for-processes concept introduced with this
syscall will be extended with other syscalls in the future. See also
[22], [23] and various other threads already linked in here.
Q-09: (Florian Weimer [24])
What happens if you use the new interface with an O_PATH descriptor?
A-09:
pidfds opened as O_PATH fds cannot be used to send signals to a
process (cf. [2]). Signaling processes through pidfds is the
equivalent of writing to a file. Thus, this is not an operation that
operates "purely at the file descriptor level" as required by the
open(2) manpage. See also [4].

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2019-03-04
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Add AF_XDP support to libbpf. Rationale is to facilitate writing
AF_XDP applications by offering higher-level APIs that hide many
of the details of the AF_XDP uapi. Sample programs are converted
over to this new interface as well, from Magnus.
2) Introduce a new cant_sleep() macro for annotation of functions
that cannot sleep and use it in BPF_PROG_RUN() to assert that
BPF programs run under preemption disabled context, from Peter.
3) Introduce per BPF prog stats in order to monitor the usage
of BPF; this is controlled by kernel.bpf_stats_enabled sysctl
knob where monitoring tools can make use of this to efficiently
determine the average cost of programs, from Alexei.
4) Split up BPF selftest's test_progs similarly as we already
did with test_verifier. This allows to further reduce merge
conflicts in future and to get more structure into our
quickly growing BPF selftest suite, from Stanislav.
5) Fix a bug in BTF's dedup algorithm which can cause an infinite
loop in some circumstances; also various BPF doc fixes and
improvements, from Andrii.
6) Various BPF sample cleanups and migration to libbpf in order
to further isolate the old sample loader code (so we can get
rid of it at some point), from Jakub.
7) Add a new BPF helper for BPF cgroup skb progs that allows
to set ECN CE code point and a Host Bandwidth Manager (HBM)
sample program for limiting the bandwidth used by v2 cgroups,
from Lawrence.
8) Enable write access to skb->queue_mapping from tc BPF egress
programs in order to let BPF pick TX queue, from Jesper.
9) Fix a bug in BPF spinlock handling for map-in-map which did
not propagate spin_lock_off to the meta map, from Yonghong.
10) Fix a bug in the new per-CPU BPF prog counters to properly
initialize stats for each CPU, from Eric.
11) Add various BPF helper prototypes to selftest's bpf_helpers.h,
from Willem.
12) Fix various BPF samples bugs in XDP and tracing progs,
from Toke, Daniel and Yonghong.
13) Silence preemption splat in test_bpf after BPF_PROG_RUN()
enforces it now everywhere, from Anders.
14) Fix a signedness bug in libbpf's btf_dedup_ref_type() to
get error handling working, from Dan.
15) Fix bpftool documentation and auto-completion with regards
to stream_{verdict,parser} attach types, from Alban.

By default IPv6 socket with IPV6_ROUTER_ALERT socket option set will
receive all IPv6 RA packets from all namespaces.
IPV6_ROUTER_ALERT_ISOLATE socket option restricts packets received by
the socket to be only from the socket's namespace.

Add flag 'FWMARK' to enable use of firewall connmarks as tin selector.
The connmark (skbuff->mark) needs to be in the range 1->tin_cnt ie.
for diffserv3 the mark needs to be 1->3.
Background
Typically CAKE uses DSCP as the basis for tin selection. DSCP values
are relatively easily changed as part of the egress path, usually with
iptables & the mangle table, ingress is more challenging. CAKE is often
used on the WAN interface of a residential gateway where passthrough of
DSCP from the ISP is either missing or set to unhelpful values thus use
of ingress DSCP values for tin selection isn't helpful in that
environment.
An approach to solving the ingress tin selection problem is to use
CAKE's understanding of tc filters. Naive tc filters could match on
source/destination port numbers and force tin selection that way, but
multiple filters don't scale particularly well as each filter must be
traversed whether it matches or not. e.g. a simple example to map 3
firewall marks to tins:
MAJOR=$( tc qdisc show dev $DEV | head -1 | awk '{print $3}' )
tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x01 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}1
tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x02 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}2
tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x03 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}3
Another option is to use eBPF cls_act with tc filters e.g.
MAJOR=$( tc qdisc show dev $DEV | head -1 | awk '{print $3}' )
tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR bpf da obj my-bpf-fwmark-to-class.o
This has the disadvantages of a) needing someone to write & maintain
the bpf program, b) a bpf toolchain to compile it and c) needing to
hardcode the major number in the bpf program so it matches the cake
instance (or forcing the cake instance to a particular major number)
since the major number cannot be passed to the bpf program via tc
command line.
As already hinted at by the previous examples, it would be helpful
to associate tins with something that survives the Internet path and
ideally allows tin selection on both egress and ingress. Netfilter's
conntrack permits setting an identifying mark on a connection which
can also be restored to an ingress packet with tc action connmark e.g.
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol all prio 10 u32 \
match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 action connmark action mirred egress redirect dev ifb1
Since tc's connmark action has restored any connmark into skb->mark,
any of the previous solutions are based upon it and in one form or
another copy that mark to the skb->priority field where again CAKE
picks this up.
This change cuts out at least one of the (less intuitive &
non-scalable) middlemen and permit direct access to skb->mark.

This patch adds a new bpf helper BPF_FUNC_skb_ecn_set_ce
"int bpf_skb_ecn_set_ce(struct sk_buff *skb)". It is added to
BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB typed bpf_prog which currently can
be attached to the ingress and egress path. The helper is needed
because his type of bpf_prog cannot modify the skb directly.
This helper is used to set the ECN field of ECN capable IP packets to ce
(congestion encountered) in the IPv6 or IPv4 header of the skb. It can be
used by a bpf_prog to manage egress or ingress network bandwdith limit
per cgroupv2 by inducing an ECN response in the TCP sender.
This works best when using DCTCP.
