[ Upstream commit 2a30f94406 ]
One of our benchmarks running in (Google-internal) CI pushes data
through the ringbuf faster htan than userspace is able to consume
it. In this case it seems we're actually able to get >INT_MAX entries
in a single ring_buffer__consume() call. ASAN detected that cnt
overflows in this case.
Fix by using 64-bit counter internally and then capping the result to
INT_MAX before converting to the int return type. Do the same for
the ring_buffer__poll().

commit 6032ebb54c upstream.
The current code bails out with negative and positive returns.
If the callback returns a positive return code, 'ring_buffer__consume()'
and 'ring_buffer__poll()' will return a spurious number of records
consumed, but mostly important will continue the processing loop.
This patch makes positive returns from the callback a no-op.

Fix ring_buffer__poll() to return the number of non-discarded records
consumed, just like its documentation states. It's also consistent with
ring_buffer__consume() return. Fix up selftests with wrong expected results.

Most of libbpf source files already include libbpf_internal.h, so it's a good
place to centralize identifier poisoning. So move kernel integer type
poisoning there. And also add reallocarray to a poison list to prevent
accidental use of it. libbpf_reallocarray() should be used universally
instead.

Re-implement glibc's reallocarray() for libbpf internal-only use.
reallocarray(), unfortunately, is not available in all versions of glibc, so
requires extra feature detection and using reallocarray() stub from
<tools/libc_compat.h> and COMPAT_NEED_REALLOCARRAY. All this complicates build
of libbpf unnecessarily and is just a maintenance burden. Instead, it's
trivial to implement libbpf-specific internal version and use it throughout
libbpf.
Which is what this patch does, along with converting some realloc() uses that
should really have been reallocarray() in the first place.

On systems with recent enough glibc, reallocarray compat won't kick in, so
reallocarray() itself has to come from stdlib.h include. But _GNU_SOURCE is
necessary to enable it. So add it.

Declaring and instantiating BPF ring buffer doesn't require any changes to
libbpf, as it's just another type of maps. So using existing BTF-defined maps
syntax with __uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF) and __uint(max_elements,
<size-of-ring-buf>) is all that's necessary to create and use BPF ring buffer.
This patch adds BPF ring buffer consumer to libbpf. It is very similar to
perf_buffer implementation in terms of API, but also attempts to fix some
minor problems and inconveniences with existing perf_buffer API.
ring_buffer support both single ring buffer use case (with just using
ring_buffer__new()), as well as allows to add more ring buffers, each with its
own callback and context. This allows to efficiently poll and consume
multiple, potentially completely independent, ring buffers, using single
epoll instance.
The latter is actually a problem in practice for applications
that are using multiple sets of perf buffers. They have to create multiple
instances for struct perf_buffer and poll them independently or in a loop,
each approach having its own problems (e.g., inability to use a common poll
timeout). struct ring_buffer eliminates this problem by aggregating many
independent ring buffer instances under the single "ring buffer manager".
Second, perf_buffer's callback can't return error, so applications that need
to stop polling due to error in data or data signalling the end, have to use
extra mechanisms to signal that polling has to stop. ring_buffer's callback
can return error, which will be passed through back to user code and can be
acted upon appropariately.
Two APIs allow to consume ring buffer data:
- ring_buffer__poll(), which will wait for data availability notification
and will consume data only from reported ring buffer(s); this API allows
to efficiently use resources by reading data only when it becomes
available;
- ring_buffer__consume(), will attempt to read new records regardless of
data availablity notification sub-system. This API is useful for cases
when lowest latency is required, in expense of burning CPU resources.
