Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2022-07-09 We've added 94 non-merge commits during the last 19 day(s) which contain a total of 125 files changed, 5141 insertions(+), 6701 deletions(-). The main changes are: 1) Add new way for performing BTF type queries to BPF, from Daniel Müller. 2) Add inlining of calls to bpf_loop() helper when its function callback is statically known, from Eduard Zingerman. 3) Implement BPF TCP CC framework usability improvements, from Jörn-Thorben Hinz. 4) Add LSM flavor for attaching per-cgroup BPF programs to existing LSM hooks, from Stanislav Fomichev. 5) Remove all deprecated libbpf APIs in prep for 1.0 release, from Andrii Nakryiko. 6) Add benchmarks around local_storage to BPF selftests, from Dave Marchevsky. 7) AF_XDP sample removal (given move to libxdp) and various improvements around AF_XDP selftests, from Magnus Karlsson & Maciej Fijalkowski. 8) Add bpftool improvements for memcg probing and bash completion, from Quentin Monnet. 9) Add arm64 JIT support for BPF-2-BPF coupled with tail calls, from Jakub Sitnicki. 10) Sockmap optimizations around throughput of UDP transmissions which have been improved by 61%, from Cong Wang. 11) Rework perf's BPF prologue code to remove deprecated functions, from Jiri Olsa. 12) Fix sockmap teardown path to avoid sleepable sk_psock_stop, from John Fastabend. 13) Fix libbpf's cleanup around legacy kprobe/uprobe on error case, from Chuang Wang. 14) Fix libbpf's bpf_helpers.h to work with gcc for the case of its sec/pragma macro, from James Hilliard. 15) Fix libbpf's pt_regs macros for riscv to use a0 for RC register, from Yixun Lan. 16) Fix bpftool to show the name of type BPF_OBJ_LINK, from Yafang Shao. * https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next: (94 commits) selftests/bpf: Fix xdp_synproxy build failure if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m/n bpf: Correctly propagate errors up from bpf_core_composites_match libbpf: Disable SEC pragma macro on GCC bpf: Check attach_func_proto more carefully in check_return_code selftests/bpf: Add test involving restrict type qualifier bpftool: Add support for KIND_RESTRICT to gen min_core_btf command MAINTAINERS: Add entry for AF_XDP selftests files selftests, xsk: Rename AF_XDP testing app bpf, docs: Remove deprecated xsk libbpf APIs description selftests/bpf: Add benchmark for local_storage RCU Tasks Trace usage libbpf, riscv: Use a0 for RC register libbpf: Remove unnecessary usdt_rel_ip assignments selftests/bpf: Fix few more compiler warnings selftests/bpf: Fix bogus uninitialized variable warning bpftool: Remove zlib feature test from Makefile libbpf: Cleanup the legacy uprobe_event on failed add/attach_event() libbpf: Fix wrong variable used in perf_event_uprobe_open_legacy() libbpf: Cleanup the legacy kprobe_event on failed add/attach_event() selftests/bpf: Add type match test against kernel's task_struct selftests/bpf: Add nested type to type based tests ... ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220708233145.32365-1-daniel@iogearbox.net Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
