Merge tag 'bpf-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:

 - Introduce '__attribute__((bpf_fastcall))' for helpers and kfuncs with
   corresponding support in LLVM.

   It is similar to existing 'no_caller_saved_registers' attribute in
   GCC/LLVM with a provision for backward compatibility. It allows
   compilers generate more efficient BPF code assuming the verifier or
   JITs will inline or partially inline a helper/kfunc with such
   attribute. bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx, bpf_rdonly_cast,
   bpf_get_smp_processor_id are the first set of such helpers.

 - Harden and extend ELF build ID parsing logic.

   When called from sleepable context the relevants parts of ELF file
   will be read to find and fetch .note.gnu.build-id information. Also
   harden the logic to avoid TOCTOU, overflow, out-of-bounds problems.

 - Improvements and fixes for sched-ext:
    - Allow passing BPF iterators as kfunc arguments
    - Make the pointer returned from iter_next method trusted
    - Fix x86 JIT convergence issue due to growing/shrinking conditional
      jumps in variable length encoding

 - BPF_LSM related:
    - Introduce few VFS kfuncs and consolidate them in
      fs/bpf_fs_kfuncs.c
    - Enforce correct range of return values from certain LSM hooks
    - Disallow attaching to other LSM hooks

 - Prerequisite work for upcoming Qdisc in BPF:
    - Allow kptrs in program provided structs
    - Support for gen_epilogue in verifier_ops

 - Important fixes:
    - Fix uprobe multi pid filter check
    - Fix bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul helpers
    - Track equal scalars history on per-instruction level
    - Fix tailcall hierarchy on x86 and arm64
    - Fix signed division overflow to prevent INT_MIN/-1 trap on x86
    - Fix get kernel stack in BPF progs attached to tracepoint:syscall

 - Selftests:
    - Add uprobe bench/stress tool
    - Generate file dependencies to drastically improve re-build time
    - Match JIT-ed and BPF asm with __xlated/__jited keywords
    - Convert older tests to test_progs framework
    - Add support for RISC-V
    - Few fixes when BPF programs are compiled with GCC-BPF backend
      (support for GCC-BPF in BPF CI is ongoing in parallel)
    - Add traffic monitor
    - Enable cross compile and musl libc
