Add new helper:
long bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind(char *name, int name_sz, u32 kind, int flags)
Description
Find BTF type with given name and kind in vmlinux BTF or in module's BTFs.
Return
Returns btf_id and btf_obj_fd in lower and upper 32 bits.
It will be used by loader program to find btf_id to attach the program to
and to find btf_ids of ksyms.

Typical program loading sequence involves creating bpf maps and applying
map FDs into bpf instructions in various places in the bpf program.
This job is done by libbpf that is using compiler generated ELF relocations
to patch certain instruction after maps are created and BTFs are loaded.
The goal of fd_idx is to allow bpf instructions to stay immutable
after compilation. At load time the libbpf would still create maps as usual,
but it wouldn't need to patch instructions. It would store map_fds into
__u32 fd_array[] and would pass that pointer to sys_bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD).

The implementation takes inspiration from the existing bpf_trace_printk
helper but there are a few differences:
To allow for a large number of format-specifiers, parameters are
provided in an array, like in bpf_seq_printf.
Because the output string takes two arguments and the array of
parameters also takes two arguments, the format string needs to fit in
one argument. Thankfully, ARG_PTR_TO_CONST_STR is guaranteed to point to
a zero-terminated read-only map so we don't need a format string length
arg.
Because the format-string is known at verification time, we also do
a first pass of format string validation in the verifier logic. This
makes debugging easier.

Per net/bpf/test_run.c, particular prog types have additional
restrictions around the parameters that can be provided, so document
these in the header.
I didn't bother documenting the limitation on duration for raw
tracepoints since that's an output parameter anyway.
Tested with ./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_doc_build.sh.

Reusing BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_VERDICT is possible but its name is
confusing and more importantly we still want to distinguish them
from user-space. So we can just reuse the stream verdict code but
introduce a new type of eBPF program, skb_verdict. Users are not
allowed to attach stream_verdict and skb_verdict programs to the
same map.

This patch adds support to BPF verifier to allow bpf program calling
kernel function directly.
The use case included in this set is to allow bpf-tcp-cc to directly
call some tcp-cc helper functions (e.g. "tcp_cong_avoid_ai()"). Those
functions have already been used by some kernel tcp-cc implementations.
This set will also allow the bpf-tcp-cc program to directly call the
kernel tcp-cc implementation, For example, a bpf_dctcp may only want to
implement its own dctcp_cwnd_event() and reuse other dctcp_*() directly
from the kernel tcp_dctcp.c instead of reimplementing (or
copy-and-pasting) them.
The tcp-cc kernel functions mentioned above will be white listed
for the struct_ops bpf-tcp-cc programs to use in a later patch.
The white listed functions are not bounded to a fixed ABI contract.
Those functions have already been used by the existing kernel tcp-cc.
If any of them has changed, both in-tree and out-of-tree kernel tcp-cc
implementations have to be changed. The same goes for the struct_ops
bpf-tcp-cc programs which have to be adjusted accordingly.
This patch is to make the required changes in the bpf verifier.
First change is in btf.c, it adds a case in "btf_check_func_arg_match()".
When the passed in "btf->kernel_btf == true", it means matching the
verifier regs' states with a kernel function. This will handle the
PTR_TO_BTF_ID reg. It also maps PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON, PTR_TO_SOCKET,
and PTR_TO_TCP_SOCK to its kernel's btf_id.
In the later libbpf patch, the insn calling a kernel function will
look like:
insn->code == (BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL)
insn->src_reg == BPF_PSEUDO_KFUNC_CALL /* <- new in this patch */
insn->imm == func_btf_id /* btf_id of the running kernel */
[ For the future calling function-in-kernel-module support, an array
of module btf_fds can be passed at the load time and insn->off
can be used to index into this array. ]
At the early stage of verifier, the verifier will collect all kernel
function calls into "struct bpf_kfunc_desc". Those
descriptors are stored in "prog->aux->kfunc_tab" and will
be available to the JIT. Since this "add" operation is similar
to the current "add_subprog()" and looking for the same insn->code,
they are done together in the new "add_subprog_and_kfunc()".
In the "do_check()" stage, the new "check_kfunc_call()" is added
to verify the kernel function call instruction:
1. Ensure the kernel function can be used by a particular BPF_PROG_TYPE.
A new bpf_verifier_ops "check_kfunc_call" is added to do that.
The bpf-tcp-cc struct_ops program will implement this function in
a later patch.
2. Call "btf_check_kfunc_args_match()" to ensure the regs can be
used as the args of a kernel function.
3. Mark the regs' type, subreg_def, and zext_dst.
At the later do_misc_fixups() stage, the new fixup_kfunc_call()
will replace the insn->imm with the function address (relative
to __bpf_call_base). If needed, the jit can find the btf_func_model
by calling the new bpf_jit_find_kfunc_model(prog, insn).
With the imm set to the function address, "bpftool prog dump xlated"
will be able to display the kernel function calls the same way as
it displays other bpf helper calls.
gpl_compatible program is required to call kernel function.
This feature currently requires JIT.
The verifier selftests are adjusted because of the changes in
the verbose log in add_subprog_and_kfunc().

The FIB lookup example[1] show how the IP-header field tot_len
(iph->tot_len) is used as input to perform the MTU check.
This patch extend the BPF-helper bpf_check_mtu() with the same ability
to provide the length as user parameter input, via mtu_len parameter.
This still needs to be done before the bpf_check_mtu() helper API
becomes frozen.

Allow to pass sk_lookup programs to PROG_TEST_RUN. User space
provides the full bpf_sk_lookup struct as context. Since the
context includes a socket pointer that can't be exposed
to user space we define that PROG_TEST_RUN returns the cookie
of the selected socket or zero in place of the socket pointer.
We don't support testing programs that select a reuseport socket,
since this would mean running another (unrelated) BPF program
from the sk_lookup test handler.

These descriptions are present in the man-pages project from the
original submissions around 2015-2016. Import them so that they can be
kept up to date as developers extend the bpf syscall commands.
These descriptions follow the pattern used by scripts/bpf_helpers_doc.py
so that we can take advantage of the parser to generate more up-to-date
man page writing based upon these headers.
Some minor wording adjustments were made to make the descriptions
more consistent for the description / return format.

The bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper is introduced which
iterates all map elements with a callback function. The
helper signature looks like
long bpf_for_each_map_elem(map, callback_fn, callback_ctx, flags)
and for each map element, the callback_fn will be called. For example,
like hashmap, the callback signature may look like
long callback_fn(map, key, val, callback_ctx)
There are two known use cases for this. One is from upstream ([1]) where
a for_each_map_elem helper may help implement a timeout mechanism
in a more generic way. Another is from our internal discussion
for a firewall use case where a map contains all the rules. The packet
data can be compared to all these rules to decide allow or deny
the packet.
For array maps, users can already use a bounded loop to traverse
elements. Using this helper can avoid using bounded loop. For other
type of maps (e.g., hash maps) where bounded loop is hard or
impossible to use, this helper provides a convenient way to
operate on all elements.
For callback_fn, besides map and map element, a callback_ctx,
allocated on caller stack, is also passed to the callback
function. This callback_ctx argument can provide additional
input and allow to write to caller stack for output.
If the callback_fn returns 0, the helper will iterate through next
element if available. If the callback_fn returns 1, the helper
will stop iterating and returns to the bpf program. Other return
values are not used for now.
Currently, this helper is only available with jit. It is possible
to make it work with interpreter with so effort but I leave it
as the future work.
