The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes it *would* have
copied if there were enough space.  So it can return &gt; the
sizeof(gen-&gt;attach_target).

[ Upstream commit bf3f00378524adae16628cbadbd11ba7211863bb ]

BPF map name is limited to BPF_OBJ_NAME_LEN.
A map name is defined as being longer than BPF_OBJ_NAME_LEN,
it will be truncated to BPF_OBJ_NAME_LEN when a userspace program
calls libbpf to create the map. A pinned map also generates a path
in the /sys. If the previous program wanted to reuse the map，
it can not get bpf_map by name, because the name of the map is only
partially the same as the name which get from pinned path.

The syscall information below show that map name "process_pinned_map"
is truncated to "process_pinned_".

    bpf(BPF_OBJ_GET, {pathname="/sys/fs/bpf/process_pinned_map",
    bpf_fd=0, file_flags=0}, 144) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

    bpf(BPF_MAP_CREATE, {map_type=BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH, key_size=4,
    value_size=4,max_entries=1024, map_flags=0, inner_map_fd=0,
    map_name="process_pinned_",map_ifindex=0, btf_fd=3, btf_key_type_id=6,
    btf_value_type_id=10,btf_vmlinux_value_type_id=0}, 72) = 4

This patch check that if the name of pinned map are the same as the
actual name for the first (BPF_OBJ_NAME_LEN - 1),
bpf map still uses the name which is included in bpf object.

<title>selftests/xsk: Destroy BPF resources only when ctx refcount drops to 0</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 39e940d4abfabb08b6937a315546b24d10be67e3 ]

Currently, xsk_socket__delete frees BPF resources regardless of ctx
refcount. Xdpxceiver has a test to verify whether underlying BPF
resources would not be wiped out after closing XSK socket that was
bound to interface with other active sockets. From library's xsk part
perspective it also means that the internal xsk context is shared and
its refcount is bumped accordingly.

After a switch to loading XDP prog based on previously opened XSK
socket, mentioned xdpxceiver test fails with:

  not ok 16 [xdpxceiver.c:swap_xsk_resources:1334]: ERROR: 9/"Bad file descriptor

which means that in swap_xsk_resources(), xsk_socket__delete() released
xskmap which in turn caused a failure of xsk_socket__update_xskmap().

To fix this, when deleting socket, decrement ctx refcount before
releasing BPF resources and do so only when refcount dropped to 0 which
means there are no more active sockets for this ctx so BPF resources can
be freed safely.

[ Upstream commit e89d57d938c8fa80c457982154ed6110804814fe ]

During BPF static linking, all the ELF relocations and .BTF.ext
information (including CO-RE relocations) are preserved for __weak
subprograms that were logically overriden by either previous weak
subprogram instance or by corresponding "strong" (non-weak) subprogram.
This is just how native user-space linkers work, nothing new.

But libbpf is over-zealous when processing CO-RE relocation to error out
when CO-RE relocation belonging to such eliminated weak subprogram is
encountered. Instead of erroring out on this expected situation, log
debug-level message and skip the relocation.

<title>libbpf: Fix a bug with checking bpf_probe_read_kernel() support in old kernels</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit d252a4a499a07bec21c65873f605c3a1ef52ffed ]

Background:
Libbpf automatically replaces calls to BPF bpf_probe_read_{kernel,user}
[_str]() helpers with bpf_probe_read[_str](), if libbpf detects that
kernel doesn't support new APIs. Specifically, libbpf invokes the
probe_kern_probe_read_kernel function to load a small eBPF program into
the kernel in which bpf_probe_read_kernel API is invoked and lets the
kernel checks whether the new API is valid. If the loading fails, libbpf
considers the new API invalid and replaces it with the old API.

static int probe_kern_probe_read_kernel(void)
{
	struct bpf_insn insns[] = {
		BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_10),	/* r1 = r10 (fp) */
		BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_1, -8),	/* r1 += -8 */
		BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_2, 8),		/* r2 = 8 */
		BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_3, 0),		/* r3 = 0 */
		BPF_RAW_INSN(BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL, 0, 0, 0, BPF_FUNC_probe_read_kernel),
		BPF_EXIT_INSN(),
	};
	int fd, insn_cnt = ARRAY_SIZE(insns);

	fd = bpf_prog_load(BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE, NULL,
                           "GPL", insns, insn_cnt, NULL);
	return probe_fd(fd);
}

Bug:
On older kernel versions [0], the kernel checks whether the version
number provided in the bpf syscall, matches the LINUX_VERSION_CODE.
If not matched, the bpf syscall fails. eBPF However, the
probe_kern_probe_read_kernel code does not set the kernel version
number provided to the bpf syscall, which causes the loading process
alwasys fails for old versions. It means that libbpf will replace the
new API with the old one even the kernel supports the new one.

Solution:
After a discussion in [1], the solution is using BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT
program type instead of BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE because kernel does not
enfoce version check for tracepoint programs. I test the patch in old
kernels (4.18 and 4.19) and it works well.
