Complete multi-prog sections and multi sub-prog support in libbpf by properly
adjusting .BTF.ext's line and function information. Mark exposed
btf_ext__reloc_func_info() and btf_ext__reloc_func_info() APIs as deprecated.
These APIs have simplistic assumption that all sub-programs are going to be
appended to all main BPF programs, which doesn't hold in real life. It's
unlikely there are any users of this API, as it's very libbpf
internals-specific.

This patch implements general and correct logic for bpf-to-bpf sub-program
calls. Only sub-programs used (called into) from entry-point (main) BPF
program are going to be appended at the end of main BPF program. This ensures
that BPF verifier won't encounter any dead code due to copying unreferenced
sub-program. This change means that each entry-point (main) BPF program might
have a different set of sub-programs appended to it and potentially in
different order. This has implications on how sub-program call relocations
need to be handled, described below.
All relocations are now split into two categores: data references (maps and
global variables) and code references (sub-program calls). This distinction is
important because data references need to be relocated just once per each BPF
program and sub-program. These relocation are agnostic to instruction
locations, because they are not code-relative and they are relocating against
static targets (maps, variables with fixes offsets, etc).
Sub-program RELO_CALL relocations, on the other hand, are highly-dependent on
code position, because they are recorded as instruction-relative offset. So
BPF sub-programs (those that do calls into other sub-programs) can't be
relocated once, they need to be relocated each time such a sub-program is
appended at the end of the main entry-point BPF program. As mentioned above,
each main BPF program might have different subset and differen order of
sub-programs, so call relocations can't be done just once. Splitting data
reference and calls relocations as described above allows to do this
efficiently and cleanly.
bpf_object__find_program_by_name() will now ignore non-entry BPF programs.
Previously one could have looked up '.text' fake BPF program, but the
existence of such BPF program was always an implementation detail and you
can't do much useful with it. Now, though, all non-entry sub-programs get
their own BPF program with name corresponding to a function name, so there is
no more '.text' name for BPF program. This means there is no regression,
effectively, w.r.t. API behavior. But this is important aspect to highlight,
because it's going to be critical once libbpf implements static linking of BPF
programs. Non-entry static BPF programs will be allowed to have conflicting
names, but global and main-entry BPF program names should be unique. Just like
with normal user-space linking process. So it's important to restrict this
aspect right now, keep static and non-entry functions as internal
implementation details, and not have to deal with regressions in behavior
later.
This patch leaves .BTF.ext adjustment as is until next patch.

Fix up CO-RE relocation code to handle relocations against ELF sections
containing multiple BPF programs. This requires lookup of a BPF program by its
section name and instruction index it contains. While it could have been done
as a simple loop, it could run into performance issues pretty quickly, as
number of CO-RE relocations can be quite large in real-world applications, and
each CO-RE relocation incurs BPF program look up now. So instead of simple
loop, implement a binary search by section name + insn offset.

Teach libbpf how to parse code sections into potentially multiple bpf_program
instances, based on ELF FUNC symbols. Each BPF program will keep track of its
position within containing ELF section for translating section instruction
offsets into program instruction offsets: regardless of BPF program's location
in ELF section, it's first instruction is always at local instruction offset
0, so when libbpf is working with relocations (which use section-based
instruction offsets) this is critical to make proper translations.

Add a set of APIs to perf_buffer manage to allow applications to integrate
perf buffer polling into existing epoll-based infrastructure. One example is
applications using libevent already and wanting to plug perf_buffer polling,
instead of relying on perf_buffer__poll() and waste an extra thread to do it.
But perf_buffer is still extremely useful to set up and consume perf buffer
rings even for such use cases.
So to accomodate such new use cases, add three new APIs:
- perf_buffer__buffer_cnt() returns number of per-CPU buffers maintained by
given instance of perf_buffer manager;
- perf_buffer__buffer_fd() returns FD of perf_event corresponding to
a specified per-CPU buffer; this FD is then polled independently;
- perf_buffer__consume_buffer() consumes data from single per-CPU buffer,
identified by its slot index.
To support a simpler, but less efficient, way to integrate perf_buffer into
external polling logic, also expose underlying epoll FD through
perf_buffer__epoll_fd() API. It will need to be followed by
perf_buffer__poll(), wasting extra syscall, or perf_buffer__consume(), wasting
CPU to iterate buffers with no data. But could be simpler and more convenient
for some cases.
These APIs allow for great flexiblity, but do not sacrifice general usability
of perf_buffer.
Also exercise and check new APIs in perf_buffer selftest.

Implement two relocations of a new enumerator value-based CO-RE relocation
kind: ENUMVAL_EXISTS and ENUMVAL_VALUE.
First, ENUMVAL_EXISTS, allows to detect the presence of a named enumerator
value in the target (kernel) BTF. This is useful to do BPF helper/map/program
type support detection from BPF program side. bpf_core_enum_value_exists()
macro helper is provided to simplify built-in usage.
Second, ENUMVAL_VALUE, allows to capture enumerator integer value and relocate
it according to the target BTF, if it changes. This is useful to have
a guarantee against intentional or accidental re-ordering/re-numbering of some
of the internal (non-UAPI) enumerations, where kernel developers don't care
about UAPI backwards compatiblity concerns. bpf_core_enum_value() allows to
capture this succinctly and use correct enum values in code.
LLVM uses ldimm64 instruction to capture enumerator value-based relocations,
so add support for ldimm64 instruction patching as well.

Implement support for TYPE_EXISTS/TYPE_SIZE/TYPE_ID_LOCAL/TYPE_ID_REMOTE
relocations. These are examples of type-based relocations, as opposed to
field-based relocations supported already. The difference is that they are
calculating relocation values based on the type itself, not a field within
a struct/union.
Type-based relos have slightly different semantics when matching local types
to kernel target types, see comments in bpf_core_types_are_compat() for
details. Their behavior on failure to find target type in kernel BTF also
differs. Instead of "poisoning" relocatable instruction and failing load
subsequently in kernel, they return 0 (which is rarely a valid return result,
so user BPF code can use that to detect success/failure of the relocation and
deal with it without extra "guarding" relocations). Also, it's always possible
to check existence of the type in target kernel with TYPE_EXISTS relocation,
similarly to a field-based FIELD_EXISTS.
TYPE_ID_LOCAL relocation is a bit special in that it always succeeds (barring
any libbpf/Clang bugs) and resolved to BTF ID using **local** BTF info of BPF
program itself. Tests in subsequent patches demonstrate the usage and
semantics of new relocations.

perf_buffer__new() is relying on BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD availability for few

is not supported. If user specified something incorrectly (e.g., wrong map
type), kernel will reject it later anyway, except user won't get a nice
explanation as to why it failed. This seems like a good trade off for
supporting perf_buffer on old kernels.

Change sanitization process to preserve original BTF, which might be used by
libbpf itself for Kconfig externs, CO-RE relocs, etc, even if kernel is old
and doesn't support BTF. To achieve that, if libbpf detects the need for BTF
sanitization, it would clone original BTF, sanitize it in-place, attempt to
load it into kernel, and if successful, will preserve loaded BTF FD in
original `struct btf`, while freeing sanitized local copy.
If kernel doesn't support any BTF, original btf and btf_ext will still be
preserved to be used later for CO-RE relocation and other BTF-dependent libbpf
features, which don't dependon kernel BTF support.
Patch takes care to not specify BTF and BTF.ext features when loading BPF
programs and/or maps, if it was detected that kernel doesn't support BTF
features.

With valid ELF and valid BTF, there is no reason (apart from bugs) why BTF
finalization should fail. So make it strict and return error if it fails. This
makes CO-RE relocation more reliable, as they are not going to be just
silently skipped, if BTF finalization failed.

Currently, bpf_object__load() (and by induction skeleton's load), will always
attempt to prepare, relocate, and load into kernel every single BPF program
found inside the BPF object file. This is often convenient and the right thing
to do and what users expect.
But there are plenty of cases (especially with BPF development constantly
picking up the pace), where BPF application is intended to work with old
kernels, with potentially reduced set of features. But on kernels supporting
extra features, it would like to take a full advantage of them, by employing
extra BPF program. This could be a choice of using fentry/fexit over
kprobe/kretprobe, if kernel is recent enough and is built with BTF. Or BPF
program might be providing optimized bpf_iter-based solution that user-space
might want to use, whenever available. And so on.
With libbpf and BPF CO-RE in particular, it's advantageous to not have to
maintain two separate BPF object files to achieve this. So to enable such use
cases, this patch adds ability to request not auto-loading chosen BPF
programs. In such case, libbpf won't attempt to perform relocations (which
might fail due to old kernel), won't try to resolve BTF types for
BTF-aware (tp_btf/fentry/fexit/etc) program types, because BTF might not be
present, and so on. Skeleton will also automatically skip auto-attachment step
for such not loaded BPF programs.
Overall, this feature allows to simplify development and deployment of
real-world BPF applications with complicated compatibility requirements.

Adjust the SEC("xdp_devmap/") prog type prefix to contain a
slash "/" for expected attach type BPF_XDP_DEVMAP. This is consistent
with other prog types like tracing.
