====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2023-12-18

This PR is larger than usual and contains changes in various parts
of the kernel.

The main changes are:

1) Fix kCFI bugs in BPF, from Peter Zijlstra.

End result: all forms of indirect calls from BPF into kernel
and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows BPF
to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.

2) Introduce BPF token object, from Andrii Nakryiko.

It adds an ability to delegate a subset of BPF features from privileged
daemon (e.g., systemd) through special mount options for userns-bound
BPF FS to a trusted unprivileged application. The design accommodates
suggestions from Christian Brauner and Paul Moore.

Example:
$ sudo mkdir -p /sys/fs/bpf/token
$ sudo mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf/token \
             -o delegate_cmds=prog_load:MAP_CREATE \
             -o delegate_progs=kprobe \
             -o delegate_attachs=xdp

3) Various verifier improvements and fixes, from Andrii Nakryiko, Andrei Matei.

 - Complete precision tracking support for register spills
 - Fix verification of possibly-zero-sized stack accesses
 - Fix access to uninit stack slots
 - Track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
   It improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
   digit to 50-60% for some programs.
 - Fix verifier retval logic

4) Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints, from Larysa Zaremba.

5) Allocate BPF trampoline via bpf_prog_pack mechanism, from Song Liu.

End result: better memory utilization and lower I$ miss for calls to BPF
via BPF trampoline.

6) Fix race between BPF prog accessing inner map and parallel delete,
from Hou Tao.

7) Add bpf_xdp_get_xfrm_state() kfunc, from Daniel Xu.

It allows BPF interact with IPSEC infra. The intent is to support
software RSS (via XDP) for the upcoming ipsec pcpu work.
Experiments on AWS demonstrate single tunnel pcpu ipsec reaching
line rate on 100G ENA nics.

8) Expand bpf_cgrp_storage to support cgroup1 non-attach, from Yafang Shao.

9) BPF file verification via fsverity, from Song Liu.

It allows BPF progs get fsverity digest.
