====================

Add libbpf support for USDT (User Statically-Defined Tracing) probes.
USDTs is important part of tracing, and BPF, ecosystem, widely used in
mission-critical production applications for observability, performance
analysis, and debugging.

And while USDTs themselves are pretty complicated abstraction built on top of
uprobes, for end-users USDT is as natural a primitive as uprobes themselves.
And thus it's important for libbpf to provide best possible user experience
when it comes to build tracing applications relying on USDTs.

USDTs historically presented a lot of challenges for libbpf's no
compilation-on-the-fly general approach to BPF tracing. BCC utilizes power of
on-the-fly source code generation and compilation using its embedded Clang
toolchain, which was impractical for more lightweight and thus more rigid
libbpf-based approach. But still, with enough diligence and BPF cookies it's
possible to implement USDT support that feels as natural as tracing any
uprobe.

This patch set is the culmination of such effort to add libbpf USDT support
following the spirit and philosophy of BPF CO-RE (even though it's not
inherently relying on BPF CO-RE much, see patch #1 for some notes regarding
this). Each respective patch has enough details and explanations, so I won't
go into details here.

In the end, I think the overall usability of libbpf's USDT support *exceeds*
the status quo set by BCC due to the elimination of awkward runtime USDT
supporting code generation. It also exceeds BCC's capabilities due to the use
of BPF cookie. This eliminates the need to determine a USDT call site (and
thus specifics about how exactly to fetch arguments) based on its *absolute IP
address*, which is impossible with shared libraries if no PID is specified (as
we then just *can't* know absolute IP at which shared library is loaded,
because it might be different for each process). With BPF cookie this is not
a problem as we record "call site ID" directly in a BPF cookie value. This
makes it possible to do a system-wide tracing of a USDT defined in a shared
library. Think about tracing some USDT in libc across any process in the
system, both running at the time of attachment and all the new processes
started *afterwards*. This is a very powerful capability that allows more
efficient observability and tracing tooling.

Once this functionality lands, the plan is to extend libbpf-bootstrap ([0])
with an USDT example. It will also become possible to start converting BCC
tools that rely on USDTs to their libbpf-based counterparts ([1]).

It's worth noting that preliminary version of this code was currently used and
tested in production code running fleet-wide observability toolkit.

Libbpf functionality is broken down into 5 mostly logically independent parts,
for ease of reviewing:
  - patch #1 adds BPF-side implementation;
  - patch #2 adds user-space APIs and wires bpf_link for USDTs;
  - patch #3 adds the most mundate pieces: handling ELF, parsing USDT notes,
    dealing with memory segments, relative vs absolute addresses, etc;
  - patch #4 adds internal ID allocation and setting up/tearing down of
    BPF-side state (spec and IP-to-ID mapping);
  - patch #5 implements x86/x86-64-specific logic of parsing USDT argument
    specifications;
  - patch #6 adds testing of various basic aspects of handling of USDT;
  - patch #7 extends the set of tests with more combinations of semaphore,
    executable vs shared library, and PID filter options.

Extend urandom_read helper binary to include USDTs of 4 combinations:
semaphore/semaphoreless (refcounted and non-refcounted) and based in
executable or shared library. We also extend urandom_read with ability
to report it's own PID to parent process and wait for parent process to
ready itself up for tracing urandom_read. We utilize popen() and
underlying pipe properties for proper signaling.

Once urandom_read is ready, we add few tests to validate that libbpf's
USDT attachment handles all the above combinations of semaphore (or lack
of it) and static or shared library USDTs. Also, we validate that libbpf
handles shared libraries both with PID filter and without one (i.e., -1
for PID argument).

Having the shared library case tested with and without PID is important
because internal logic differs on kernels that don't support BPF
cookies. On such older kernels, attaching to USDTs in shared libraries
without specifying concrete PID doesn't work in principle, because it's
impossible to determine shared library's load address to derive absolute
IPs for uprobe attachments. Without absolute IPs, it's impossible to
perform correct look up of USDT spec based on uprobe's absolute IP (the
only kind available from BPF at runtime). This is not the problem on
newer kernels with BPF cookie as we don't need IP-to-ID lookup because
BPF cookie value *is* spec ID.

So having those two situations as separate subtests is good because
libbpf CI is able to test latest selftests against old kernels (e.g.,
4.9 and 5.5), so we'll be able to disable PID-less shared lib attachment
for old kernels, but will still leave PID-specific one enabled to validate
this legacy logic is working correctly.

Add semaphore-based USDT to test_progs itself and write basic tests to
valicate both auto-attachment and manual attachment logic, as well as
BPF-side functionality.

Also add subtests to validate that libbpf properly deduplicates USDT
specs and handles spec overflow situations correctly, as well as proper
"rollback" of partially-attached multi-spec USDT.

BPF-side of selftest intentionally consists of two files to validate
that usdt.bpf.h header can be included from multiple source code files
that are subsequently linked into final BPF object file without causing
any symbol duplication or other issues. We are validating that __weak
maps and bpf_usdt_xxx() API functions defined in usdt.bpf.h do work as
intended.

USDT selftests utilize sys/sdt.h header that on Ubuntu systems comes
from systemtap-sdt-devel package. But to simplify everyone's life,
including CI but especially casual contributors to bpf/bpf-next that
are trying to build selftests, I've checked in sys/sdt.h header from [0]
directly. This way it will work on all architectures and distros without
having to figure it out for every relevant combination and adding any
extra implicit package dependencies.

Add x86/x86_64-specific USDT argument specification parsing. Each
architecture will require their own logic, as all this is arch-specific
assembly-based notation. Architectures that libbpf doesn't support for
USDTs will pr_warn() with specific error and return -ENOTSUP.

We use sscanf() as a very powerful and easy to use string parser. Those
spaces in sscanf's format string mean "skip any whitespaces", which is
pretty nifty (and somewhat little known) feature.

All this was tested on little-endian architecture, so bit shifts are
probably off on big-endian, which our CI will hopefully prove.

Last part of architecture-agnostic user-space USDT handling logic is to
set up BPF spec and, optionally, IP-to-ID maps from user-space.
usdt_manager performs a compact spec ID allocation to utilize
fixed-sized BPF maps as efficiently as possible. We also use hashmap to
deduplicate USDT arg spec strings and map identical strings to single
USDT spec, minimizing the necessary BPF map size. usdt_manager supports
arbitrary sequences of attachment and detachment, both of the same USDT
and multiple different USDTs and internally maintains a free list of
unused spec IDs. bpf_link_usdt's logic is extended with proper setup and
teardown of this spec ID free list and supporting BPF maps.

Implement architecture-agnostic parts of USDT parsing logic. The code is
the documentation in this case, it's futile to try to succinctly
describe how USDT parsing is done in any sort of concreteness. But
still, USDTs are recorded in special ELF notes section (.note.stapsdt),
where each USDT call site is described separately. Along with USDT
provider and USDT name, each such note contains USDT argument
specification, which uses assembly-like syntax to describe how to fetch
value of USDT argument. USDT arg spec could be just a constant, or
a register, or a register dereference (most common cases in x86_64), but
it technically can be much more complicated cases, like offset relative
to global symbol and stuff like that. One of the later patches will
implement most common subset of this for x86 and x86-64 architectures,
which seems to handle a lot of real-world production application.

USDT arg spec contains a compact encoding allowing usdt.bpf.h from
previous patch to handle the above 3 cases. Instead of recording which
register might be needed, we encode register's offset within struct
pt_regs to simplify BPF-side implementation. USDT argument can be of
different byte sizes (1, 2, 4, and 8) and signed or unsigned. To handle
this, libbpf pre-calculates necessary bit shifts to do proper casting
and sign-extension in a short sequences of left and right shifts.

The rest is in the code with sometimes extensive comments and references
to external "documentation" for USDTs.

Wire up libbpf USDT support APIs without yet implementing all the
nitty-gritty details of USDT discovery, spec parsing, and BPF map
initialization.

User-visible user-space API is simple and is conceptually very similar
to uprobe API.

bpf_program__attach_usdt() API allows to programmatically attach given
BPF program to a USDT, specified through binary path (executable or
shared lib), USDT provider and name. Also, just like in uprobe case, PID
filter is specified (0 - self, -1 - any process, or specific PID).
Optionally, USDT cookie value can be specified. Such single API
invocation will try to discover given USDT in specified binary and will
use (potentially many) BPF uprobes to attach this program in correct
locations.

Just like any bpf_program__attach_xxx() APIs, bpf_link is returned that
represents this attachment. It is a virtual BPF link that doesn't have
direct kernel object, as it can consist of multiple underlying BPF
uprobe links. As such, attachment is not atomic operation and there can
be brief moment when some USDT call sites are attached while others are
still in the process of attaching. This should be taken into
consideration by user. But bpf_program__attach_usdt() guarantees that
in the case of success all USDT call sites are successfully attached, or
all the successfuly attachments will be detached as soon as some USDT
call sites failed to be attached. So, in theory, there could be cases of
failed bpf_program__attach_usdt() call which did trigger few USDT
program invocations. This is unavoidable due to multi-uprobe nature of
USDT and has to be handled by user, if it's important to create an
illusion of atomicity.

USDT BPF programs themselves are marked in BPF source code as either
SEC("usdt"), in which case they won't be auto-attached through
skeleton's <skel>__attach() method, or it can have a full definition,
which follows the spirit of fully-specified uprobes:
SEC("usdt/<path>:<provider>:<name>"). In the latter case skeleton's
attach method will attempt auto-attachment. Similarly, generic
bpf_program__attach() will have enought information to go off of for
parameterless attachment.

USDT BPF programs are actually uprobes, and as such for kernel they are
marked as BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE.

Another part of this patch is USDT-related feature probing:
  - BPF cookie support detection from user-space;
  - detection of kernel support for auto-refcounting of USDT semaphore.

The latter is optional. If kernel doesn't support such feature and USDT
doesn't rely on USDT semaphores, no error is returned. But if libbpf
detects that USDT requires setting semaphores and kernel doesn't support
this, libbpf errors out with explicit pr_warn() message. Libbpf doesn't
support poking process's memory directly to increment semaphore value,
like BCC does on legacy kernels, due to inherent raciness and danger of
such process memory manipulation. Libbpf let's kernel take care of this
properly or gives up.

Logistically, all the extra USDT-related infrastructure of libbpf is put
into a separate usdt.c file and abstracted behind struct usdt_manager.
Each bpf_object has lazily-initialized usdt_manager pointer, which is
only instantiated if USDT programs are attempted to be attached. Closing
BPF object frees up usdt_manager resources. usdt_manager keeps track of
USDT spec ID assignment and few other small things.

Subsequent patches will fill out remaining missing pieces of USDT
initialization and setup logic.

Add BPF-side implementation of libbpf-provided USDT support. This
consists of single header library, usdt.bpf.h, which is meant to be used
from user's BPF-side source code. This header is added to the list of
installed libbpf header, along bpf_helpers.h and others.

BPF-side implementation consists of two BPF maps:
  - spec map, which contains "a USDT spec" which encodes information
    necessary to be able to fetch USDT arguments and other information
    (argument count, user-provided cookie value, etc) at runtime;
  - IP-to-spec-ID map, which is only used on kernels that don't support
    BPF cookie feature. It allows to lookup spec ID based on the place
    in user application that triggers USDT program.

These maps have default sizes, 256 and 1024, which are chosen
conservatively to not waste a lot of space, but handling a lot of common
cases. But there could be cases when user application needs to either
trace a lot of different USDTs, or USDTs are heavily inlined and their
arguments are located in a lot of differing locations. For such cases it
might be necessary to size those maps up, which libbpf allows to do by
overriding BPF_USDT_MAX_SPEC_CNT and BPF_USDT_MAX_IP_CNT macros.

It is an important aspect to keep in mind. Single USDT (user-space
equivalent of kernel tracepoint) can have multiple USDT "call sites".
That is, single logical USDT is triggered from multiple places in user
application. This can happen due to function inlining. Each such inlined
instance of USDT invocation can have its own unique USDT argument
specification (instructions about the location of the value of each of
USDT arguments). So while USDT looks very similar to usual uprobe or
kernel tracepoint, under the hood it's actually a collection of uprobes,
each potentially needing different spec to know how to fetch arguments.

User-visible API consists of three helper functions:
  - bpf_usdt_arg_cnt(), which returns number of arguments of current USDT;
  - bpf_usdt_arg(), which reads value of specified USDT argument (by
    it's zero-indexed position) and returns it as 64-bit value;
  - bpf_usdt_cookie(), which functions like BPF cookie for USDT
    programs; this is necessary as libbpf doesn't allow specifying actual
    BPF cookie and utilizes it internally for USDT support implementation.

Each bpf_usdt_xxx() APIs expect struct pt_regs * context, passed into
BPF program. On kernels that don't support BPF cookie it is used to
fetch absolute IP address of the underlying uprobe.

usdt.bpf.h also provides BPF_USDT() macro, which functions like
BPF_PROG() and BPF_KPROBE() and allows much more user-friendly way to
get access to USDT arguments, if USDT definition is static and known to
the user. It is expected that majority of use cases won't have to use
bpf_usdt_arg_cnt() and bpf_usdt_arg() directly and BPF_USDT() will cover
all their needs.

Last, usdt.bpf.h is utilizing BPF CO-RE for one single purpose: to
detect kernel support for BPF cookie. If BPF CO-RE dependency is
undesirable, user application can redefine BPF_USDT_HAS_BPF_COOKIE to
either a boolean constant (or equivalently zero and non-zero), or even
point it to its own .rodata variable that can be specified from user's
application user-space code. It is important that
BPF_USDT_HAS_BPF_COOKIE is known to BPF verifier as static value (thus
.rodata and not just .data), as otherwise BPF code will still contain
bpf_get_attach_cookie() BPF helper call and will fail validation at
runtime, if not dead-code eliminated.

sync with the UAPI BPF header uses a regex to parse enum bpf_prog_type.
If this enum contains a set of values different from the list of program

This script should have reported the addition, some time ago, of the new

====================

This patch series focuses on supporting name-based attach - similar
to that supported for kprobes - for uprobe BPF programs.

Currently attach for such probes is done by determining the offset
manually, so the aim is to try and mimic the simplicity of kprobe
attach, making use of uprobe opts to specify a name string.
Patch 1 supports expansion of the binary_path argument used for
bpf_program__attach_uprobe_opts(), allowing it to determine paths
for programs and shared objects automatically, allowing for
specification of "libc.so.6" rather than the full path
"/usr/lib64/libc.so.6".

Patch 2 adds the "func_name" option to allow uprobe attach by
name; the mechanics are described there.

Having name-based support allows us to support auto-attach for
uprobes; patch 3 adds auto-attach support while attempting
to handle backwards-compatibility issues that arise.  The format
supported is

u[ret]probe/binary_path:[raw_offset|function[+offset]]

For example, to attach to libc malloc:

SEC("uprobe//usr/lib64/libc.so.6:malloc")

..or, making use of the path computation mechanisms introduced in patch 1

SEC("uprobe/libc.so.6:malloc")

Finally patch 4 add tests to the attach_probe selftests covering
attach by name, with patch 5 covering skeleton auto-attach.

Changes since v4 [1]:
- replaced strtok_r() usage with copying segments from static char *; avoids
  unneeded string allocation (Andrii, patch 1)
- switched to using access() instead of stat() when checking path-resolved
  binary (Andrii, patch 1)
- removed computation of .plt offset for instrumenting shared library calls
  within binaries.  Firstly it proved too brittle, and secondly it was somewhat
  unintuitive in that this form of instrumentation did not support function+offset
  as the "local function in binary" and "shared library function in shared library"
  cases did.  We can still instrument library calls, just need to do it in the
  library .so (patch 2)
- added binary path logging in cases where it was missing (Andrii, patch 2)
- avoid strlen() calcuation in checking name match (Andrii, patch 2)
- reword comments for func_name option (Andrii, patch 2)
- tightened SEC() name validation to support "u[ret]probe" and fail on other
  permutations that do not support auto-attach (i.e. have u[ret]probe/binary_path:func
  format (Andrii, patch 3)
- fixed selftests to fail independently rather than skip remainder on failure
  (Andrii, patches 4,5)
Changes since v3 [2]:
- reworked variable naming to fit better with libbpf conventions
  (Andrii, patch 2)
- use quoted binary path in log messages (Andrii, patch 2)
- added path determination mechanisms using LD_LIBRARY_PATH/PATH and
  standard locations (patch 1, Andrii)
- changed section lookup to be type+name (if name is specified) to
  simplify use cases (patch 2, Andrii)
- fixed .plt lookup scheme to match symbol table entries with .plt
  index via the .rela.plt table; also fix the incorrect assumption
  that the code in the .plt that does library linking is the same
  size as .plt entries (it just happens to be on x86_64)
- aligned with pluggable section support such that uprobe SEC() names
  that do not conform to auto-attach format do not cause skeleton load
  failure (patch 3, Andrii)
- no longer need to look up absolute path to libraries used by test_progs
  since we have mechanism to determine path automatically
- replaced CHECK()s with ASSERT*()s for attach_probe test (Andrii, patch 4)
- added auto-attach selftests also (Andrii, patch 5)
Changes since RFC [3]:
- used "long" for addresses instead of ssize_t (Andrii, patch 1).
- used gelf_ interfaces to avoid assumptions about 64-bit
  binaries (Andrii, patch 1)
- clarified string matching in symbol table lookups
  (Andrii, patch 1)
- added support for specification of shared object functions
  in a non-shared object binary.  This approach instruments
  the Procedure Linking Table (PLT) - malloc@PLT.
- changed logic in symbol search to check dynamic symbol table
  first, then fall back to symbol table (Andrii, patch 1).
- modified auto-attach string to require "/" separator prior
  to path prefix i.e. uprobe//path/to/binary (Andrii, patch 2)
- modified auto-attach string to use ':' separator (Andrii,
  patch 2)
- modified auto-attach to support raw offset (Andrii, patch 2)
- modified skeleton attach to interpret -ESRCH errors as
  a non-fatal "unable to auto-attach" (Andrii suggested
  -EOPNOTSUPP but my concern was it might collide with other
  instances where that value is returned and reflects a
  failure to attach a to-be-expected attachment rather than
  skip a program that does not present an auto-attachable
  section name. Admittedly -EOPNOTSUPP seems a more natural
  value here).
- moved library path retrieval code to trace_helpers (Andrii,
  patch 3)

Now that u[ret]probes can use name-based specification, it makes
sense to add support for auto-attach based on SEC() definition.
The format proposed is

        SEC("u[ret]probe/binary:[raw_offset|[function_name[+offset]]")

For example, to trace malloc() in libc:

        SEC("uprobe/libc.so.6:malloc")

...or to trace function foo2 in /usr/bin/foo:

        SEC("uprobe//usr/bin/foo:foo2")

Auto-attach is done for all tasks (pid -1).  prog can be an absolute
path or simply a program/library name; in the latter case, we use
PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH to resolve the full path, falling back to
standard locations (/usr/bin:/usr/sbin or /usr/lib64:/usr/lib) if
the file is not found via environment-variable specified locations.

kprobe attach is name-based, using lookups of kallsyms to translate
a function name to an address.  Currently uprobe attach is done
via an offset value as described in [1].  Extend uprobe opts
for attach to include a function name which can then be converted
into a uprobe-friendly offset.  The calcualation is done in
several steps:

1. First, determine the symbol address using libelf; this gives us
   the offset as reported by objdump
2. If the function is a shared library function - and the binary
   provided is a shared library - no further work is required;
   the address found is the required address
3. Finally, if the function is local, subtract the base address
   associated with the object, retrieved from ELF program headers.

The resultant value is then added to the func_offset value passed
in to specify the uprobe attach address.  So specifying a func_offset
of 0 along with a function name "printf" will attach to printf entry.

The modes of operation supported are then

1. to attach to a local function in a binary; function "foo1" in
   "/usr/bin/foo"
2. to attach to a shared library function in a shared library -
   function "malloc" in libc.

bpf_program__attach_uprobe_opts() requires a binary_path argument
specifying binary to instrument.  Supporting simply specifying
"libc.so.6" or "foo" should be possible too.

Library search checks LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then /usr/lib64, /usr/lib.
This allows users to run BPF programs prefixed with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path2/lib while still searching standard locations.
Similarly for non .so files, we check PATH and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.

Path determination will be useful for auto-attach of BPF uprobe programs
using SEC() definition.

To move the list iterator variable into the list_for_each_entry_*()
macro in the future it should be avoided to use the list iterator
variable after the loop body.

To *never* use the list iterator variable after the loop it was
concluded to use a separate iterator variable instead of a
found boolean [1].

This removes the need to use the found variable (existed & supported)
and simply checking if the variable was set, can determine if the
break/goto was hit.

The BPF STX/LDX instruction uses offset relative to the FP to address
stack space. Since the BPF_FP locates at the top of the frame, the offset
is usually a negative number. However, arm64 str/ldr immediate instruction
requires that offset be a positive number.  Therefore, this patch tries to
convert the offsets.

The method is to find the negative offset furthest from the FP firstly.
Then add it to the FP, calculate a bottom position, called FPB, and then
adjust the offsets in other STR/LDX instructions relative to FPB.

FPB is saved using the callee-saved register x27 of arm64 which is not
used yet.

Before adjusting the offset, the patch checks every instruction to ensure
that the FP does not change in run-time. If the FP may change, no offset
is adjusted.

For example, for the following bpftrace command:

  bpftrace -e 'kprobe:do_sys_open { printf("opening: %s\n", str(arg1)); }'

The current BPF store/load instruction is translated by the JIT into two
instructions. The first instruction moves the immediate offset into a
temporary register. The second instruction uses this temporary register
to do the real store/load.

In fact, arm64 supports addressing with immediate offsets. So This patch
introduces optimization that uses arm64 str/ldr instruction with immediate
offset when the offset fits.

Example of generated instuction for r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0):

without optimization:
mov x10, 0
ldr x1, [x0, x10]

with optimization:
ldr x1, [x0, 0]

If the offset is negative, or is not aligned correctly, or exceeds max
value, rollback to the use of temporary register.

so this patch only adds this type.
