This patch adds bpf_line_info support to libbpf:
1) Parsing the line_info sec from ".BTF.ext"
2) Relocating the line_info. If the main prog *_info relocation
fails, it will ignore the remaining subprog line_info and continue.
If the subprog *_info relocation fails, it will bail out.

This patch refactor and fix a bug in the libbpf's bpf_func_info loading
logic. The bug fix and refactoring are targeting the same
commit 2993e0515b ("tools/bpf: add support to read .BTF.ext sections")
which is in the bpf-next branch.
1) In bpf_load_program_xattr(), it should retry when errno == E2BIG
regardless of log_buf and log_buf_sz. This patch fixes it.
2) btf_ext__reloc_init() and btf_ext__reloc() are essentially
the same except btf_ext__reloc_init() always has insns_cnt == 0.
Hence, btf_ext__reloc_init() is removed.
btf_ext__reloc() is also renamed to btf_ext__reloc_func_info()
to get ready for the line_info support in the next patch.
3) Consolidate func_info section logic from "btf_ext_parse_hdr()",
"btf_ext_validate_func_info()" and "btf_ext__new()" to
a new function "btf_ext_copy_func_info()" such that similar
logic can be reused by the later libbpf's line_info patch.
4) The next line_info patch will store line_info_cnt instead of
line_info_len in the bpf_program because the kernel is taking
line_info_cnt also. It will save a few "len" to "cnt" conversions
and will also save some function args.
Hence, this patch also makes bpf_program to store func_info_cnt
instead of func_info_len.
5) btf_ext depends on btf. e.g. the func_info's type_id
in ".BTF.ext" is not useful when ".BTF" is absent.
This patch only init the obj->btf_ext pointer after
it has successfully init the obj->btf pointer.
This can avoid always checking "obj->btf && obj->btf_ext"
together for accessing ".BTF.ext". Checking "obj->btf_ext"
alone will do.
6) Move "struct btf_sec_func_info" from btf.h to btf.c.
There is no external usage outside btf.c.

Often we want to write tests cases that check things like bad context
offset accesses. And one way to do this is to use an odd offset on,
for example, a 32-bit load.
This unfortunately triggers the alignment checks first on platforms
that do not set CONFIG_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. So the test
case see the alignment failure rather than what it was testing for.
It is often not completely possible to respect the original intention
of the test, or even test the same exact thing, while solving the
alignment issue.
Another option could have been to check the alignment after the
context and other validations are performed by the verifier, but
that is a non-trivial change to the verifier.

Since ABI versioning info is kept separately from the code it's easy to
forget to update it while adding a new API.
Add simple verification that all global symbols exported with LIBBPF_API
are versioned in libbpf.map version script.
The idea is to check that number of global symbols in libbpf-in.o, that
is the input to the linker, matches with number of unique versioned
symbols in libbpf.so, that is the output of the linker. If these numbers
don't match, it may mean some symbol was not versioned and make will
fail.
"Unique" means that if a symbol is present in more than one version of
ABI due to ABI changes, it'll be counted once.
Another option to calculate number of global symbols in the "input"
could be to count number of LIBBPF_ABI entries in C headers but it seems
to be fragile.
Example of output when a symbol is missing in version script:
...
LD libbpf-in.o
LINK libbpf.a
LINK libbpf.so
Warning: Num of global symbols in libbpf-in.o (115) does NOT match
with num of versioned symbols in libbpf.so (114). Please make sure all
LIBBPF_API symbols are versioned in libbpf.map.

More and more projects use libbpf and one day it'll likely be packaged
and distributed as DSO and that requires ABI versioning so that both
compatible and incompatible changes to ABI can be introduced in a safe
way in the future without breaking executables dynamically linked with a
previous version of the library.
Usual way to do ABI versioning is version script for the linker. Add
such a script for libbpf. All global symbols currently exported via
LIBBPF_API macro are added to the version script libbpf.map.
The version name LIBBPF_0.0.1 is constructed from the name of the
library + version specified by $(LIBBPF_VERSION) in Makefile.
Version script does not duplicate the work done by LIBBPF_API macro, it
rather complements it. The macro is used at compile time and can be used
by compiler to do optimization that can't be done at link time, it is
purely about global symbol visibility. The version script, in turn, is
used at link time and takes care of ABI versioning. Both techniques are
described in details in [1].
Whenever ABI is changed in the future, version script should be changed
appropriately.

This is common practice that should prevent from accidentally exporting
a symbol, that is not supposed to be a part of ABI what, in turn,
improves both libbpf developer- and user-experiences. See [1] for more
details.
Export control becomes more important since more and more projects use

Multiple map definition structures exist and user may have non-zero
fields in their definition that are not recognized by bpftool and
libbpf. The normal behavior is to then fail loading the map. Although
this is a good default behavior users may still want to load the map
for debugging or other reasons. This patch adds a --mapcompat flag
that can be used to override the default behavior and allow loading
the map even when it has additional non-zero fields.
For now the only user is 'bpftool prog' we can switch over other
subcommands as needed. The library exposes an API that consumes
a flags field now but I kept the original API around also in case
users of the API don't want to expose this. The flags field is an
int in case we need more control over how the API call handles

libbpf is used more and more outside kernel tree. That means the library
should follow good practices in library design and implementation to
play well with third party code that uses it.
One of such practices is to have a common prefix (or a few) for every
interface, function or data structure, library provides. I helps to
avoid name conflicts with other libraries and keeps API consistent.
Inconsistent names in libbpf already cause problems in real life. E.g.
an application can't use both libbpf and libnl due to conflicting
symbols.
Having common prefix will help to fix current and avoid future problems.
libbpf already uses the following prefixes for its interfaces:
* bpf_ for bpf system call wrappers, program/map/elf-object
abstractions and a few other things;
* btf_ for BTF related API;
* libbpf_ for everything else.

an application can't use both libbpf and libnl due to conflicting
symbols.
Having common prefix will help to fix current and avoid future problems.
libbpf already uses the following prefixes for its interfaces:
* bpf_ for bpf system call wrappers, program/map/elf-object
abstractions and a few other things;
* btf_ for BTF related API;
* libbpf_ for everything else.
The patch adds libbpf_ prefix to interfaces in nlattr.h that use none of
mentioned above prefixes and doesn't fit well into the first two
categories.
Since affected part of API is used in bpftool, the patch applies
corresponding change to bpftool as well. Having it in a separate patch
will cause a state of tree where bpftool is broken what may not be a
good idea.

libbpf is used more and more outside kernel tree. That means the library
should follow good practices in library design and implementation to
play well with third party code that uses it.
One of such practices is to have a common prefix (or a few) for every
interface, function or data structure, library provides. I helps to
avoid name conflicts with other libraries and keeps API consistent.

This typedef is used only by implementation in netlink.c. Nothing uses
it in public API. Move it to netlink.c.

Allow the individual program load to be invoked. This will help with
testing, where a single ELF may contain several sections, some of which
denote subprograms that are expected to fail verification, along with
some which are expected to pass verification. By allowing programs to be
iterated and individually loaded, each program can be independently
checked against its expected verification result.

Add section names for BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_PARSER and
BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_VERDICT attach types to be able to identify them in
libbpf_attach_type_by_name.
"stream_parser" and "stream_verdict" are used instead of simple "parser"
and "verdict" just to avoid possible confusion in a place where attach
type is used alone (e.g. in bpftool's show sub-commands) since there is
another attach point that can be named as "verdict": BPF_SK_MSG_VERDICT.

Add section names for BPF_CGROUP_INET_INGRESS and BPF_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS
attach types to be able to identify them in libbpf_attach_type_by_name.
"cgroup_skb" is used instead of "cgroup/skb" mostly to easy possible
unifying of how libbpf and bpftool works with section names:
* bpftool uses "cgroup_skb" to in "prog list" sub-command;
* bpftool uses "ingress" and "egress" in "cgroup list" sub-command;
* having two parts instead of three in a string like "cgroup_skb/ingress"
can be leveraged to split it to prog_type part and attach_type part,
or vise versa: use two parts to make a section name.

There is a common use-case when ELF object contains multiple BPF
programs and every program has its own section name. If it's cgroup-bpf
then programs have to be 1) loaded and 2) attached to a cgroup.
It's convenient to have information necessary to load BPF program
together with program itself. This is where section name works fine in
conjunction with libbpf_prog_type_by_name that identifies prog_type and
expected_attach_type and these can be used with BPF_PROG_LOAD.
But there is currently no way to identify attach_type by section name
and it leads to messy code in user space that reinvents guessing logic
every time it has to identify attach type to use with BPF_PROG_ATTACH.
The patch introduces libbpf_attach_type_by_name that guesses attach type
by section name if a program can be attached.
The difference between expected_attach_type provided by
libbpf_prog_type_by_name and attach_type provided by
libbpf_attach_type_by_name is the former is used at BPF_PROG_LOAD time
and can be zero if a program of prog_type X has only one corresponding
attach type Y whether the latter provides specific attach type to use
with BPF_PROG_ATTACH.
No new section names were added to section_names array. Only existing
ones were reorganized and attach_type was added where appropriate.

pull-request: bpf-next 2018-09-25
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Allow for RX stack hardening by implementing the kernel's flow
dissector in BPF. Idea was originally presented at netconf 2017 [0].
Quote from merge commit:
[...] Because of the rigorous checks of the BPF verifier, this
provides significant security guarantees. In particular, the BPF
flow dissector cannot get inside of an infinite loop, as with
CVE-2013-4348, because BPF programs are guaranteed to terminate.
It cannot read outside of packet bounds, because all memory accesses
are checked. Also, with BPF the administrator can decide which
protocols to support, reducing potential attack surface. Rarely
encountered protocols can be excluded from dissection and the
program can be updated without kernel recompile or reboot if a
bug is discovered. [...]
Also, a sample flow dissector has been implemented in BPF as part
of this work, from Petar and Willem.

2) Add support for bpftool to list currently active attachment
points of BPF networking programs providing a quick overview
similar to bpftool's perf subcommand, from Yonghong.
3) Fix a verifier pruning instability bug where a union member
from the register state was not cleared properly leading to
branches not being pruned despite them being valid candidates,
from Alexei.
4) Various smaller fast-path optimizations in XDP's map redirect
code, from Jesper.
5) Enable to recognize BPF_MAP_TYPE_REUSEPORT_SOCKARRAY maps
in bpftool, from Roman.
6) Remove a duplicate check in libbpf that probes for function
storage, from Taeung.
7) Fix an issue in test_progs by avoid checking for errno since
on success its value should not be checked, from Mauricio.
8) Fix unused variable warning in bpf_getsockopt() helper when
CONFIG_INET is not configured, from Anders.
9) Fix a compilation failure in the BPF sample code's use of
bpf_flow_keys, from Prashant.
10) Minor cleanups in BPF code, from Yue and Zhong.

Same problem that got fixed in a similar fashion in tools/perf/ in
c8b5f2c96d ("tools: Introduce str_error_r()"), fix it in the same
way, licensing needs to be sorted out to libbpf to use libapi, so,
for this simple case, just get the same wrapper in tools/lib/bpf.
This makes libbpf and its users (bpftool, selftests, perf) to build
again in Alpine Linux 3.[45678] and edge.
