[PATCH v2 bpf-next 00/21] bpf: Sysctl hook

[Andrey Ignatov]

v1->v2:
- add fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c mainteners to Cc:.

The patch set introduces new BPF hook for sysctl.

It adds new program type BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL and attach type
BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL.

BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL hook is placed before calling to sysctl's proc_handler so
that accesses (read/write) to sysctl can be controlled for specific cgroup
and either allowed or denied, or traced.

The hook has access to sysctl name, current sysctl value and (on write
only) to new sysctl value via corresponding helpers. New sysctl value can
be overridden by program. Both name and values (current/new) are
represented as strings same way they're visible in /proc/sys/. It is up to
program to parse these strings.

To help with parsing the most common kind of sysctl value, vector of
integers, two new helpers are provided: bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul with
semantic similar to user space strtol(3) and strtoul(3).

The hook also provides bpf_sysctl context with two fields:
* @write indicates whether sysctl is being read (= 0) or written (= 1);
* @file_pos is sysctl file position to read from or write to, can be
  overridden.

The hook allows to make better isolation for containerized applications
that are run as root so that one container can't change a sysctl and affect
all other containers on a host, make changes to allowed sysctl in a safer
way and simplify sysctl tracing for cgroups.

Patch 1 is preliminary refactoring.
Patch 2 adds new program and attach types.
Patches 3-5 implement helpers to access sysctl name and value.
Patch 6 adds file_pos field to bpf_sysctl context.
Patch 7 updates UAPI in tools.
Patches 8-9 add support for the new hook to libbpf and corresponding test.
Patches 10-14 add selftests for the new hook.
Patch 15 adds support for new arg types to verifier: pointer to integer.
Patch 16 adds bpf_strto{l,ul} helpers to parse integers from sysctl value.
Patch 17 updates UAPI in tools.
Patch 18 updates bpf_helpers.h.
Patch 19 adds selftests for pointer to integer in verifier.
Patches 20-21 add selftests for bpf_strto{l,ul}, including integration
              C based test for sysctl value parsing.
