If key_type or value_type are of non-trivial data types
(e.g. structure or typedef), it's not possible to check them without
the additional information, which can't be obtained without a pointer
to the btf structure.

So, let's pass btf pointer to the map_check_btf() callbacks.

<title>bpf: Add bpf_line_info support</title>

<id>c454a46b5efd8eff8880e88ece2976e60a26bf35</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds bpf_line_info support.

It accepts an array of bpf_line_info objects during BPF_PROG_LOAD.
The "line_info", "line_info_cnt" and "line_info_rec_size" are added
to the "union bpf_attr".  The "line_info_rec_size" makes
bpf_line_info extensible in the future.

The new "check_btf_line()" ensures the userspace line_info is valid
for the kernel to use.

When the verifier is translating/patching the bpf_prog (through
"bpf_patch_insn_single()"), the line_infos' insn_off is also
adjusted by the newly added "bpf_adj_linfo()".

If the bpf_prog is jited, this patch also provides the jited addrs (in
aux-&gt;jited_linfo) for the corresponding line_info.insn_off.
"bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo()" is added to fill the aux-&gt;jited_linfo.
It is currently called by the x86 jit.  Other jits can also use
"bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo()" and it will be done in the followup patches.
In the future, if it deemed necessary, a particular jit could also provide
its own "bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo()" implementation.

A few "*line_info*" fields are added to the bpf_prog_info such
that the user can get the xlated line_info back (i.e. the line_info
with its insn_off reflecting the translated prog).  The jited_line_info
is available if the prog is jited.  It is an array of __u64.
If the prog is not jited, jited_line_info_cnt is 0.

The verifier's verbose log with line_info will be done in
a follow up patch.

<title>bpf: btf: support proper non-jit func info</title>

Commit 838e96904ff3 ("bpf: Introduce bpf_func_info")
added bpf func info support. The userspace is able
to get better ksym's for bpf programs with jit, and
is able to print out func prototypes.

For a program containing func-to-func calls, the existing
implementation returns user specified number of function
calls and BTF types if jit is enabled. If the jit is not
enabled, it only returns the type for the main function.

This is undesirable. Interpreter may still be used
and we should keep feature identical regardless of
whether jit is enabled or not.
This patch fixed this discrepancy.

This patch added interface to load a program with the following
additional information:
   . prog_btf_fd
   . func_info, func_info_rec_size and func_info_cnt
where func_info will provide function range and type_id
corresponding to each function.

The func_info_rec_size is introduced in the UAPI to specify
struct bpf_func_info size passed from user space. This
intends to make bpf_func_info structure growable in the future.
If the kernel gets a different bpf_func_info size from userspace,
it will try to handle user request with part of bpf_func_info
it can understand. In this patch, kernel can understand
  struct bpf_func_info {
       __u32   insn_offset;
       __u32   type_id;
  };
If user passed a bpf func_info record size of 16 bytes, the
kernel can still handle part of records with the above definition.

If verifier agrees with function range provided by the user,
the bpf_prog ksym for each function will use the func name
provided in the type_id, which is supposed to provide better
encoding as it is not limited by 16 bytes program name
limitation and this is better for bpf program which contains
multiple subprograms.

The bpf_prog_info interface is also extended to
return btf_id, func_info, func_info_rec_size and func_info_cnt
to userspace, so userspace can print out the function prototype
for each xlated function. The insn_offset in the returned
func_info corresponds to the insn offset for xlated functions.
With other jit related fields in bpf_prog_info, userspace can also
print out function prototypes for each jited function.

<title>bpf: do not pass netdev to translate() and prepare() offload callbacks</title>

The kernel functions to prepare verifier and translate for offloaded
program retrieve "offload" from "prog", and "netdev" from "offload".
Then both "prog" and "netdev" are passed to the callbacks.

Simplify this by letting the drivers retrieve the net device themselves
from the offload object attached to prog - if they need it at all. There
is currently no need to pass the netdev as an argument to those
functions.

Function bpf_prog_offload_verifier_prep(), called from the kernel BPF
verifier to run a driver-specific callback for preparing for the
verification step for offloaded programs, takes a pointer to a struct
bpf_verifier_env object. However, no driver callback needs the whole
structure at this time: the two drivers supporting this, nfp and
netdevsim, only need a pointer to the struct bpf_prog instance held by
env.

Update the callback accordingly, on kernel side and in these two
drivers.

Since the dev_ops pointer in struct bpf_prog_offload is no longer used

We intend to remove the dev_ops in struct bpf_prog_offload, and to only
keep the ops in struct bpf_offload_dev instead, which is accessible from
more locations for passing function pointers.

But dev_ops is used for calling the verify_insn hook. Switch to the
newly added ops in struct bpf_prog_offload instead.

To avoid table lookups for each eBPF instruction to verify, we remember
the offdev attached to a netdev and modify bpf_offload_find_netdev() to
avoid performing more than once a lookup for a given offload object.

We intend to remove the dev_ops in struct bpf_prog_offload, and to only
keep the ops in struct bpf_offload_dev instead, which is accessible from
more locations for passing function pointers.

But dev_ops is used for calling the verify_insn hook. Switch to the
newly added ops in struct bpf_prog_offload instead.
