This patch adds the libbpf infrastructure for supporting a
per-map-type "map_extra" field, whose definition will be
idiosyncratic depending on map type.
For example, for the bloom filter map, the lower 4 bits of
map_extra is used to denote the number of hash functions.
Please note that until libbpf 1.0 is here, the
"bpf_create_map_params" struct is used as a temporary
means for propagating the map_extra field to the kernel.

Add APIs providing read-only access to bpf_program BPF instructions ([0]).
This is useful for diagnostics purposes, but it also allows a cleaner
support for cloning BPF programs after libbpf did all the FD resolution
and CO-RE relocations, subprog instructions appending, etc. Currently,
cloning BPF program is possible only through hijacking a half-broken
bpf_program__set_prep() API, which doesn't really work well for anything
but most primitive programs. For instance, set_prep() API doesn't allow
adjusting BPF program load parameters which are necessary for loading
fentry/fexit BPF programs (the case where BPF program cloning is
a necessity if doing some sort of mass-attachment functionality).
Given bpf_program__set_prep() API is set to be deprecated, having
a cleaner alternative is a must. libbpf internally already keeps track
of linear array of struct bpf_insn, so it's not hard to expose it. The
only gotcha is that libbpf previously freed instructions array during
bpf_object load time, which would make this API much less useful overall,
because in between bpf_object__open() and bpf_object__load() a lot of
changes to instructions are done by libbpf.
So this patch makes libbpf hold onto prog->insns array even after BPF
program loading. I think this is a small price for added functionality
and improved introspection of BPF program code.
See retsnoop PR ([1]) for how it can be used in practice and code
savings compared to relying on bpf_program__set_prep().

Add btf__type_cnt() and btf__raw_data() APIs and deprecate
btf__get_nr_type() and btf__get_raw_data() since the old APIs
don't follow the libbpf naming convention for getters which
omit 'get' in the name (see [0]). btf__raw_data() is just an
alias to the existing btf__get_raw_data(). btf__type_cnt()

Patch set [1] introduced BTF_KIND_TAG to allow tagging
declarations for struct/union, struct/union field, var, func
and func arguments and these tags will be encoded into
dwarf. They are also encoded to btf by llvm for the bpf target.
After BTF_KIND_TAG is introduced, we intended to use it
for kernel __user attributes. But kernel __user is actually
a type attribute. Upstream and internal discussion showed
it is not a good idea to mix declaration attribute and
type attribute. So we proposed to introduce btf_type_tag
as a type attribute and existing btf_tag renamed to
btf_decl_tag ([2]).
This patch renamed BTF_KIND_TAG to BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG and some
other declarations with *_tag to *_decl_tag to make it clear
the tag is for declaration. In the future, BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG
might be introduced per [3].

Add a bulk copying api, btf__add_btf(), that speeds up and simplifies
appending entire contents of one BTF object to another one, taking care
of copying BTF type data, adjusting resulting BTF type IDs according to
their new locations in the destination BTF object, as well as copying
and deduplicating all the referenced strings and updating all the string
offsets in new BTF types as appropriate.
This API is intended to be used from tools that are generating and
otherwise manipulating BTFs generically, such as pahole. In pahole's
case, this API is useful for speeding up parallelized BTF encoding, as
it allows pahole to offload all the intricacies of BTF type copying to
libbpf and handle the parallelization aspects of the process.

Turn previously auto-generated libbpf_version.h header into a normal
header file. This prevents various tricky Makefile integration issues,
simplifies the overall build process, but also allows to further extend
it with some more versioning-related APIs in the future.
To prevent accidental out-of-sync versions as defined by libbpf.map and
libbpf_version.h, Makefile checks their consistency at build time.
Simultaneously with this change bump libbpf.map to v0.6.
Also undo adding libbpf's output directory into include path for
kernel/bpf/preload, bpftool, and resolve_btfids, which is not necessary
because libbpf_version.h is just a normal header like any other.

Add a BTF dumper for typed data, so that the user can dump a typed
version of the data provided.
The API is
int btf_dump__dump_type_data(struct btf_dump *d, __u32 id,
void *data, size_t data_sz,
const struct btf_dump_type_data_opts *opts);
...where the id is the BTF id of the data pointed to by the "void *"
argument; for example the BTF id of "struct sk_buff" for a
"struct skb *" data pointer. Options supported are
- a starting indent level (indent_lvl)
- a user-specified indent string which will be printed once per
indent level; if NULL, tab is chosen but any string <= 32 chars
can be provided.
- a set of boolean options to control dump display, similar to those
used for BPF helper bpf_snprintf_btf(). Options are
- compact : omit newlines and other indentation
- skip_names: omit member names
- emit_zeroes: show zero-value members
Default output format is identical to that dumped by bpf_snprintf_btf(),
for example a "struct sk_buff" representation would look like this:
struct sk_buff){
(union){
(struct){
.next = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff,
.prev = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff,
(union){
.dev = (struct net_device *)0xffffffffffffffff,
.dev_scratch = (long unsigned int)18446744073709551615,
},
},
...
If the data structure is larger than the *data_sz*
number of bytes that are available in *data*, as much
of the data as possible will be dumped and -E2BIG will
be returned. This is useful as tracers will sometimes
not be able to capture all of the data associated with
a type; for example a "struct task_struct" is ~16k.
Being able to specify that only a subset is available is
important for such cases. On success, the amount of data
dumped is returned.

The BPF program loading process performed by libbpf is quite complex
and consists of the following steps:
"open" phase:
- parse elf file and remember relocations, sections
- collect externs and ksyms including their btf_ids in prog's BTF
- patch BTF datasec (since llvm couldn't do it)
- init maps (old style map_def, BTF based, global data map, kconfig map)
- collect relocations against progs and maps
"load" phase:
- probe kernel features
- load vmlinux BTF
- resolve externs (kconfig and ksym)
- load program BTF
- init struct_ops
- create maps
- apply CO-RE relocations
- patch ld_imm64 insns with src_reg=PSEUDO_MAP, PSEUDO_MAP_VALUE, PSEUDO_BTF_ID
- reposition subprograms and adjust call insns
- sanitize and load progs
During this process libbpf does sys_bpf() calls to load BTF, create maps,
populate maps and finally load programs.
Instead of actually doing the syscalls generate a trace of what libbpf
would have done and represent it as the "loader program".
The "loader program" consists of single map with:
- union bpf_attr(s)
- BTF bytes
- map value bytes
- insns bytes
and single bpf program that passes bpf_attr(s) and data into bpf_sys_bpf() helper.
Executing such "loader program" via bpf_prog_test_run() command will
replay the sequence of syscalls that libbpf would have done which will result
the same maps created and programs loaded as specified in the elf file.
The "loader program" removes libelf and majority of libbpf dependency from
program loading process.
kconfig, typeless ksym, struct_ops and CO-RE are not supported yet.
The order of relocate_data and relocate_calls had to change, so that
bpf_gen__prog_load() can see all relocations for a given program with
correct insn_idx-es.

This adds functions that wrap the netlink API used for adding, manipulating,
and removing traffic control filters.
The API summary:
A bpf_tc_hook represents a location where a TC-BPF filter can be attached.
This means that creating a hook leads to creation of the backing qdisc,
while destruction either removes all filters attached to a hook, or destroys
qdisc if requested explicitly (as discussed below).
The TC-BPF API functions operate on this bpf_tc_hook to attach, replace,
query, and detach tc filters. All functions return 0 on success, and a
negative error code on failure.
bpf_tc_hook_create - Create a hook
Parameters:
@hook - Cannot be NULL, ifindex > 0, attach_point must be set to
proper enum constant. Note that parent must be unset when
attach_point is one of BPF_TC_INGRESS or BPF_TC_EGRESS. Note
that as an exception BPF_TC_INGRESS|BPF_TC_EGRESS is also a
valid value for attach_point.
Returns -EOPNOTSUPP when hook has attach_point as BPF_TC_CUSTOM.
bpf_tc_hook_destroy - Destroy a hook
Parameters:
@hook - Cannot be NULL. The behaviour depends on value of
attach_point. If BPF_TC_INGRESS, all filters attached to
the ingress hook will be detached. If BPF_TC_EGRESS, all
filters attached to the egress hook will be detached. If
BPF_TC_INGRESS|BPF_TC_EGRESS, the clsact qdisc will be
deleted, also detaching all filters. As before, parent must
be unset for these attach_points, and set for BPF_TC_CUSTOM.
It is advised that if the qdisc is operated on by many programs,
then the program at least check that there are no other existing
filters before deleting the clsact qdisc. An example is shown
below:
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_tc_hook, .ifindex = if_nametoindex("lo"),
.attach_point = BPF_TC_INGRESS);
/* set opts as NULL, as we're not really interested in
* getting any info for a particular filter, but just
* detecting its presence.
*/
r = bpf_tc_query(&hook, NULL);
if (r == -ENOENT) {
/* no filters */
hook.attach_point = BPF_TC_INGRESS|BPF_TC_EGREESS;
return bpf_tc_hook_destroy(&hook);
} else {
/* failed or r == 0, the latter means filters do exist */
return r;
}
Note that there is a small race between checking for no
filters and deleting the qdisc. This is currently unavoidable.
Returns -EOPNOTSUPP when hook has attach_point as BPF_TC_CUSTOM.
bpf_tc_attach - Attach a filter to a hook
Parameters:
@hook - Cannot be NULL. Represents the hook the filter will be
attached to. Requirements for ifindex and attach_point are
same as described in bpf_tc_hook_create, but BPF_TC_CUSTOM
is also supported. In that case, parent must be set to the
handle where the filter will be attached (using BPF_TC_PARENT).
E.g. to set parent to 1:16 like in tc command line, the
equivalent would be BPF_TC_PARENT(1, 16).
@opts - Cannot be NULL. The following opts are optional:
* handle - The handle of the filter
* priority - The priority of the filter
Must be >= 0 and <= UINT16_MAX
Note that when left unset, they will be auto-allocated by
the kernel. The following opts must be set:
* prog_fd - The fd of the loaded SCHED_CLS prog
The following opts must be unset:
* prog_id - The ID of the BPF prog
The following opts are optional:
* flags - Currently only BPF_TC_F_REPLACE is allowed. It
allows replacing an existing filter instead of
failing with -EEXIST.
The following opts will be filled by bpf_tc_attach on a
successful attach operation if they are unset:
* handle - The handle of the attached filter
* priority - The priority of the attached filter
* prog_id - The ID of the attached SCHED_CLS prog
This way, the user can know what the auto allocated values
for optional opts like handle and priority are for the newly
attached filter, if they were unset.
Note that some other attributes are set to fixed default
values listed below (this holds for all bpf_tc_* APIs):
protocol as ETH_P_ALL, direct action mode, chain index of 0,
and class ID of 0 (this can be set by writing to the
skb->tc_classid field from the BPF program).
bpf_tc_detach
Parameters:
@hook - Cannot be NULL. Represents the hook the filter will be
detached from. Requirements are same as described above
in bpf_tc_attach.
@opts - Cannot be NULL. The following opts must be set:
* handle, priority
The following opts must be unset:
* prog_fd, prog_id, flags
bpf_tc_query
Parameters:
@hook - Cannot be NULL. Represents the hook where the filter lookup will
be performed. Requirements are same as described above in
bpf_tc_attach().
@opts - Cannot be NULL. The following opts must be set:
* handle, priority
The following opts must be unset:
* prog_fd, prog_id, flags
The following fields will be filled by bpf_tc_query upon a
successful lookup:
* prog_id
Some usage examples (using BPF skeleton infrastructure):
BPF program (test_tc_bpf.c):
#include <linux/bpf.h>
#include <bpf/bpf_helpers.h>
SEC("classifier")
int cls(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
return 0;
}
Userspace loader:
struct test_tc_bpf *skel = NULL;
int fd, r;
skel = test_tc_bpf__open_and_load();
if (!skel)
return -ENOMEM;
fd = bpf_program__fd(skel->progs.cls);
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_tc_hook, hook, .ifindex =
if_nametoindex("lo"), .attach_point =
BPF_TC_INGRESS);
/* Create clsact qdisc */
r = bpf_tc_hook_create(&hook);
if (r < 0)
goto end;
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_tc_opts, opts, .prog_fd = fd);
r = bpf_tc_attach(&hook, &opts);
if (r < 0)
goto end;
/* Print the auto allocated handle and priority */
printf("Handle=%u", opts.handle);
printf("Priority=%u", opts.priority);
opts.prog_fd = opts.prog_id = 0;
bpf_tc_detach(&hook, &opts);
end:
test_tc_bpf__destroy(skel);
This is equivalent to doing the following using tc command line:
# tc qdisc add dev lo clsact
# tc filter add dev lo ingress bpf obj foo.o sec classifier da
# tc filter del dev lo ingress handle <h> prio <p> bpf
... where the handle and priority can be found using:
# tc filter show dev lo ingress
Another example replacing a filter (extending prior example):
/* We can also choose both (or one), let's try replacing an
* existing filter.
*/
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_tc_opts, replace_opts, .handle =
opts.handle, .priority = opts.priority,
.prog_fd = fd);
r = bpf_tc_attach(&hook, &replace_opts);
if (r == -EEXIST) {
/* Expected, now use BPF_TC_F_REPLACE to replace it */
replace_opts.flags = BPF_TC_F_REPLACE;
return bpf_tc_attach(&hook, &replace_opts);
} else if (r < 0) {
return r;
}
/* There must be no existing filter with these
* attributes, so cleanup and return an error.
*/
replace_opts.prog_fd = replace_opts.prog_id = 0;
bpf_tc_detach(&hook, &replace_opts);
return -1;
To obtain info of a particular filter:
/* Find info for filter with handle 1 and priority 50 */
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_tc_opts, info_opts, .handle = 1,
.priority = 50);
r = bpf_tc_query(&hook, &info_opts);
if (r == -ENOENT)
printf("Filter not found");
else if (r < 0)
return r;
printf("Prog ID: %u", info_opts.prog_id);
return 0;

Introduce BPF static linker APIs to libbpf. BPF static linker allows to
perform static linking of multiple BPF object files into a single combined
resulting object file, preserving all the BPF programs, maps, global
variables, etc.
Data sections (.bss, .data, .rodata, .maps, maps, etc) with the same name are
concatenated together. Similarly, code sections are also concatenated. All the
symbols and ELF relocations are also concatenated in their respective ELF
sections and are adjusted accordingly to the new object file layout.
Static variables and functions are handled correctly as well, adjusting BPF
instructions offsets to reflect new variable/function offset within the
combined ELF section. Such relocations are referencing STT_SECTION symbols and
that stays intact.
Data sections in different files can have different alignment requirements, so
that is taken care of as well, adjusting sizes and offsets as necessary to
satisfy both old and new alignment requirements.
DWARF data sections are stripped out, currently. As well as LLLVM_ADDRSIG
section, which is ignored by libbpf in bpf_object__open() anyways. So, in
a way, BPF static linker is an analogue to `llvm-strip -g`, which is a pretty
nice property, especially if resulting .o file is then used to generate BPF
skeleton.
Original string sections are ignored and instead we construct our own set of
unique strings using libbpf-internal `struct strset` API.
To reduce the size of the patch, all the .BTF and .BTF.ext processing was
moved into a separate patch.
The high-level API consists of just 4 functions:
- bpf_linker__new() creates an instance of BPF static linker. It accepts
output filename and (currently empty) options struct;
- bpf_linker__add_file() takes input filename and appends it to the already
processed ELF data; it can be called multiple times, one for each BPF
ELF object file that needs to be linked in;
- bpf_linker__finalize() needs to be called to dump final ELF contents into
the output file, specified when bpf_linker was created; after
bpf_linker__finalize() is called, no more bpf_linker__add_file() and
bpf_linker__finalize() calls are allowed, they will return error;
- regardless of whether bpf_linker__finalize() was called or not,
bpf_linker__free() will free up all the used resources.
Currently, BPF static linker doesn't resolve cross-object file references
(extern variables and/or functions). This will be added in the follow up patch
set.

The logic follows that of BTF_KIND_INT most of the time. Sanitization
replaces BTF_KIND_FLOATs with equally-sized empty BTF_KIND_STRUCTs on
older kernels, for example, the following:
[4] FLOAT 'float' size=4
becomes the following:
[4] STRUCT '(anon)' size=4 vlen=0
With dwarves patch [1] and this patch, the older kernels, which were
failing with the floating-point-related errors, will now start working
correctly.

Add support for separation of eBPF program load and xsk socket
creation.
This is needed for use-case when you want to privide as little
privileges as possible to the data plane application that will
handle xsk socket creation and incoming traffic.
With this patch the data entity container can be run with only
CAP_NET_RAW capability to fulfill its purpose of creating xsk
socket and handling packages. In case your umem is larger or
equal process limit for MEMLOCK you need either increase the
limit or CAP_IPC_LOCK capability.
To resolve privileges issue two APIs are introduced:
- xsk_setup_xdp_prog - loads the built in XDP program. It can
also return xsks_map_fd which is needed by unprivileged process
to update xsks_map with AF_XDP socket "fd"
- xsk_socket__update_xskmap - inserts an AF_XDP socket into an xskmap
for a particular xsk_socket

Support split BTF operation, in which one BTF (base BTF) provides basic set of
types and strings, while another one (split BTF) builds on top of base's types
and strings and adds its own new types and strings. From API standpoint, the
fact that the split BTF is built on top of the base BTF is transparent.
Type numeration is transparent. If the base BTF had last type ID #N, then all
types in the split BTF start at type ID N+1. Any type in split BTF can
reference base BTF types, but not vice versa. Programmatically construction of
a split BTF on top of a base BTF is supported: one can create an empty split
BTF with btf__new_empty_split() and pass base BTF as an input, or pass raw
binary data to btf__new_split(), or use btf__parse_xxx_split() variants to get
initial set of split types/strings from the ELF file with .BTF section.
String offsets are similarly transparent and are a logical continuation of
base BTF's strings. When building BTF programmatically and adding a new string
(explicitly with btf__add_str() or implicitly through appending new
types/members), string-to-be-added would first be looked up from the base
BTF's string section and re-used if it's there. If not, it will be looked up
and/or added to the split BTF string section. Similarly to type IDs, types in
split BTF can refer to strings from base BTF absolutely transparently (but not
vice versa, of course, because base BTF doesn't "know" about existence of
split BTF).
Internal type index is slightly adjusted to be zero-indexed, ignoring a fake
[0] VOID type. This allows to handle split/base BTF type lookups transparently
by using btf->start_id type ID offset, which is always 1 for base/non-split
BTF and equals btf__get_nr_types(base_btf) + 1 for the split BTF.
BTF deduplication is not yet supported for split BTF and support for it will
be added in separate patch.

Teach BTF to recognized wrong endianness and transparently convert it
internally to host endianness. Original endianness of BTF will be preserved
and used during btf__get_raw_data() to convert resulting raw data to the same
endianness and a source raw_data. This means that little-endian host can parse
big-endian BTF with no issues, all the type data will be presented to the
client application in native endianness, but when it's time for emitting BTF
to persist it in a file (e.g., after BTF deduplication), original non-native
endianness will be preserved and stored.
It's possible to query original endianness of BTF data with new
btf__endianness() API. It's also possible to override desired output
endianness with btf__set_endianness(), so that if application needs to load,
say, big-endian BTF and store it as little-endian BTF, it's possible to
manually override this. If btf__set_endianness() was used to change
endianness, btf__endianness() will reflect overridden endianness.
Given there are no known use cases for supporting cross-endianness for
.BTF.ext, loading .BTF.ext in non-native endianness is not supported.

Add APIs for appending new BTF types at the end of BTF object.
Each BTF kind has either one API of the form btf__add_<kind>(). For types
that have variable amount of additional items (struct/union, enum, func_proto,
datasec), additional API is provided to emit each such item. E.g., for
emitting a struct, one would use the following sequence of API calls:
btf__add_struct(...);
btf__add_field(...);
...
btf__add_field(...);
Each btf__add_field() will ensure that the last BTF type is of STRUCT or
UNION kind and will automatically increment that type's vlen field.
All the strings are provided as C strings (const char *), not a string offset.
This significantly improves usability of BTF writer APIs. All such strings
will be automatically appended to string section or existing string will be
re-used, if such string was already added previously.
Each API attempts to do all the reasonable validations, like enforcing
non-empty names for entities with required names, proper value bounds, various
bit offset restrictions, etc.
Type ID validation is minimal because it's possible to emit a type that refers
to type that will be emitted later, so libbpf has no way to enforce such
cases. User must be careful to properly emit all the necessary types and
specify type IDs that will be valid in the finally generated BTF.
Each of btf__add_<kind>() APIs return new type ID on success or negative
value on error. APIs like btf__add_field() that emit additional items
return zero on success and negative value on error.

Allow internal BTF representation to switch from default read-only mode, in
which raw BTF data is a single non-modifiable block of memory with BTF header,
types, and strings layed out sequentially and contiguously in memory, into
a writable representation with types and strings data split out into separate
memory regions, that can be dynamically expanded.
Such writable internal representation is transparent to users of libbpf APIs,
but allows to append new types and strings at the end of BTF, which is
a typical use case when generating BTF programmatically. All the basic
guarantees of BTF types and strings layout is preserved, i.e., user can get
`struct btf_type *` pointer and read it directly. Such btf_type pointers might
be invalidated if BTF is modified, so some care is required in such mixed
read/write scenarios.
Switch from read-only to writable configuration happens automatically the
first time when user attempts to modify BTF by either adding a new type or new
string. It is still possible to get raw BTF data, which is a single piece of
memory that can be persisted in ELF section or into a file as raw BTF. Such
raw data memory is also still owned by BTF and will be freed either when BTF
object is freed or if another modification to BTF happens, as any modification
invalidates BTF raw representation.
This patch adds the first two BTF manipulation APIs: btf__add_str(), which
allows to add arbitrary strings to BTF string section, and btf__find_str()
which allows to find existing string offset, but not add it if it's missing.
All the added strings are automatically deduplicated. This is achieved by
maintaining an additional string lookup index for all unique strings. Such
index is built when BTF is switched to modifiable mode. If at that time BTF
strings section contained duplicate strings, they are not de-duplicated. This
is done specifically to not modify the existing content of BTF (types, their
string offsets, etc), which can cause confusion and is especially important
property if there is struct btf_ext associated with struct btf. By following
this "imperfect deduplication" process, btf_ext is kept consitent and correct.
If deduplication of strings is necessary, it can be forced by doing BTF
deduplication, at which point all the strings will be eagerly deduplicated and
all string offsets both in struct btf and struct btf_ext will be updated.

let's just call it that and deprecate bpf_program__title() API in favor of

Additionally, using bpf_object__find_program_by_title() is now inherently

name. So deprecate this API as well and recommend to switch to non-ambiguous
bpf_object__find_program_by_name().

applications that want to send and receive packets between HW queues
on one device or between different devices/netdevs.
In order to create sockets that share a umem between hardware queues
and devices, a new function has been added called
xsk_socket__create_shared(). It takes the same arguments as
xsk_socket_create() plus references to a fill ring and a completion
ring. So for every socket that share a umem, you need to have one more
set of fill and completion rings. This in order to maintain the
single-producer single-consumer semantics of the rings.
You can create all the sockets via the new xsk_socket__create_shared()
call, or create the first one with xsk_socket__create() and the rest
with xsk_socket__create_shared(). Both methods work.

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.

With libbpf and BTF it is pretty common to have libbpf built for one
architecture, while BTF information was generated for a different architecture
(typically, but not always, BPF). In such case, the size of a pointer might
differ betweem architectures. libbpf previously was always making an
assumption that pointer size for BTF is the same as native architecture
pointer size, but that breaks for cases where libbpf is built as 32-bit
library, while BTF is for 64-bit architecture.
To solve this, add heuristic to determine pointer size by searching for `long`
or `unsigned long` integer type and using its size as a pointer size. Also,
allow to override the pointer size with a new API btf__set_pointer_size(), for
cases where application knows which pointer size should be used. User
application can check what libbpf "guessed" by looking at the result of
btf__pointer_size(). If it's not 0, then libbpf successfully determined a
pointer size, otherwise native arch pointer size will be used.
For cases where BTF is parsed from ELF file, use ELF's class (32-bit or
64-bit) to determine pointer size.

Add setter for BTF FD to allow application more fine-grained control in more
advanced scenarios. Storing BTF FD inside `struct btf` provides little benefit
and probably would be better done differently (e.g., btf__load() could just
return FD on success), but we are stuck with this due to backwards
compatibility. The main problem is that it's impossible to load BTF and than
free user-space memory, but keep FD intact, because `struct btf` assumes
ownership of that FD upon successful load and will attempt to close it during
btf__free(). To allow callers (e.g., libbpf itself for BTF sanitization) to
have more control over this, add btf__set_fd() to allow to reset FD
arbitrarily, if necessary.

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.

Add a bunch of getter for various aspects of BPF map. Some of these attribute
(e.g., key_size, value_size, type, etc) are available right now in struct
bpf_map_def, but this patch adds getter allowing to fetch them individually.
bpf_map_def approach isn't very scalable, when ABI stability requirements are
taken into account. It's much easier to extend libbpf and add support for new
features, when each aspect of BPF map has separate getter/setter.
Getters follow the common naming convention of not explicitly having "get" in
its name: bpf_map__type() returns map type, bpf_map__key_size() returns
key_size. Setters, though, explicitly have set in their name:
bpf_map__set_type(), bpf_map__set_key_size().
This patch ensures we now have a getter and a setter for the following
map attributes:
- type;
- max_entries;
- map_flags;
- numa_node;
- key_size;
- value_size;
- ifindex.
bpf_map__resize() enforces unnecessary restriction of max_entries > 0. It is
unnecessary, because libbpf actually supports zero max_entries for some cases
(e.g., for PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map) and treats it specially during map creation
time. To allow setting max_entries=0, new bpf_map__set_max_entries() setter is
added. bpf_map__resize()'s behavior is preserved for backwards compatibility
reasons.
Map ifindex getter is added as well. There is a setter already, but no
corresponding getter. Fix this assymetry as well. bpf_map__set_ifindex()
itself is converted from void function into error-returning one, similar to
other setters. The only error returned right now is -EBUSY, if BPF map is
already loaded and has corresponding FD.
One lacking attribute with no ability to get/set or even specify it
declaratively is numa_node. This patch fixes this gap and both adds
programmatic getter/setter, as well as adds support for numa_node field in
BTF-defined map.
