For a host which has a lower rlimit for max locked memory (e.g., 64KB),
the following error occurs in one of our production systems:

libbpf: Error in bpf_object__probe_name():Operation not permitted(1).
Couldn't load basic 'r0 = 0' BPF program.
Error: failed to open object file
The reason is due to low locked memory during bpf_object__probe_name()
which probes whether program name is supported in kernel or not
during __bpf_object__open_xattr().
bpftool program load already tries to relax mlock rlimit before
bpf_object__load(). Let us move set_max_rlimit() before
__bpf_object__open_xattr(), which fixed the issue here.

For iptable module to load a bpf program from a pinned location, it
only retrieve a loaded program and cannot change the program content so
requiring a write permission for it might not be necessary.
Also when adding or removing an unrelated iptable rule, it might need to
flush and reload the xt_bpf related rules as well and triggers the inode
permission check. It might be better to remove the write premission
check for the inode so we won't need to grant write access to all the
processes that flush and restore iptables rules.

Currently, nla_put_iflink() doesn't put the IFLA_LINK attribute when
iflink == ifindex.
In some cases, a device can be created in a different netns with the
same ifindex as its parent. That device will not dump its IFLA_LINK
attribute, which can confuse some userspace software that expects it.
For example, if the last ifindex created in init_net and foo are both
8, these commands will trigger the issue:
ip link add parent type dummy # ifindex 9
ip link add link parent netns foo type macvlan # ifindex 9 in ns foo
So, in case a device puts the IFLA_LINK_NETNSID attribute in a dump,
always put the IFLA_LINK attribute as well.

result, future data packet retransmission may not update it in

unexpectedly by retransmits_timed_out() since retrans_stamp remains

This bug only manifests on passive TFO sender that a) suffered

The test_lru_map is relying on marking the LRU map entry via regular
BPF map lookup from system call side. This is basically for simplicity
reasons. Given we fixed marking entries in that case, the test needs
to be fixed as well. Here we add a small drop-in replacement to retain
existing behavior for the tests by marking out of the BPF program and
transferring the retrieved value out via temporary map. This also adds
new test cases to track the new behavior where two elements are marked,
one via system call side and one via program side, where the next update
then evicts the key looked up only from system call side.

One of the biggest issues we face right now with picking LRU map over
regular hash table is that a map walk out of user space, for example,
to just dump the existing entries or to remove certain ones, will
completely mess up LRU eviction heuristics and wrong entries such
as just created ones will get evicted instead. The reason for this
is that we mark an entry as "in use" via bpf_lru_node_set_ref() from
system call lookup side as well. Thus upon walk, all entries are
being marked, so information of actual least recently used ones
are "lost".
In case of Cilium where it can be used (besides others) as a BPF
based connection tracker, this current behavior causes disruption
upon control plane changes that need to walk the map from user space
to evict certain entries. Discussion result from bpfconf [0] was that
we should simply just remove marking from system call side as no
good use case could be found where it's actually needed there.
Therefore this patch removes marking for regular LRU and per-CPU
flavor. If there ever should be a need in future, the behavior could
be selected via map creation flag, but due to mentioned reason we
avoid this here.

Continuing discussion about 58b6e5e8f1 ("hugetlbfs: fix memory leak for
resv_map") brought up the issue that inode->i_mapping may not point to the
address space embedded within the inode at inode eviction time. The
hugetlbfs truncate routine handles this by explicitly using inode->i_data.
However, code cleaning up the resv_map will still use the address space
pointed to by inode->i_mapping. Luckily, private_data is NULL for address
spaces in all such cases today but, there is no guarantee this will
continue.
Change all hugetlbfs code getting a resv_map pointer to explicitly get it
from the address space embedded within the inode. In addition, add more
comments in the code to indicate why this is being done.

Now that we are not using page address in handles directly, we can make
z3fold pages movable to decrease the memory fragmentation z3fold may
create over time.
This patch starts advertising non-headless z3fold pages as movable and
uses the existing kernel infrastructure to implement moving of such pages
per memory management subsystem's request. It thus implements 3 required
callbacks for page migration:
* isolation callback: z3fold_page_isolate(): try to isolate the page by
removing it from all lists. Pages scheduled for some activity and
mapped pages will not be isolated. Return true if isolation was
successful or false otherwise
* migration callback: z3fold_page_migrate(): re-check critical
conditions and migrate page contents to the new page provided by the
memory subsystem. Returns 0 on success or negative error code otherwise
* putback callback: z3fold_page_putback(): put back the page if
z3fold_page_migrate() for it failed permanently (i. e. not with
-EAGAIN code).

Patch series "z3fold: support page migration", v2.
This patchset implements page migration support and slightly better buddy
search. To implement page migration support, z3fold has to move away from
the current scheme of handle encoding. i. e. stop encoding page address
in handles. Instead, a small per-page structure is created which will
contain actual addresses for z3fold objects, while pointers to fields of
that structure will be used as handles.
Thus, it will be possible to change the underlying addresses to reflect
page migration.
To support migration itself, 3 callbacks will be implemented:
1: isolation callback: z3fold_page_isolate(): try to isolate the page
by removing it from all lists. Pages scheduled for some activity and
mapped pages will not be isolated. Return true if isolation was
successful or false otherwise
2: migration callback: z3fold_page_migrate(): re-check critical
conditions and migrate page contents to the new page provided by the
system. Returns 0 on success or negative error code otherwise
3: putback callback: z3fold_page_putback(): put back the page if
z3fold_page_migrate() for it failed permanently (i. e. not with
-EAGAIN code).
To make sure an isolated page doesn't get freed, its kref is incremented
in z3fold_page_isolate() and decremented during post-migration compaction,
if migration was successful, or by z3fold_page_putback() in the other
case.
Since the new handle encoding scheme implies slight memory consumption
increase, better buddy search (which decreases memory consumption) is
included in this patchset.
This patch (of 4):
Introduce a separate helper function for object allocation, as well as 2
smaller helpers to add a buddy to the list and to get a pointer to the
pool from the z3fold header. No functional changes here.
