We can't currently allow to attach functions with variable arguments.
The problem is that we should save all the registers for arguments,
which is probably doable, but if caller uses more than 6 arguments,
we need stack data, which will be wrong, because of the extra stack
frame we do in bpf trampoline, so we could crash.

Also currently there's malformed trampoline code generated for such
functions at the moment as described in:

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().

This patch moved the subprog specific logic from
btf_check_func_arg_match() to the new btf_check_subprog_arg_match().
The core logic is left in btf_check_func_arg_match() which
will be reused later to check the kernel function call.

The "if (!btf_type_is_ptr(t))" is checked first to improve the
indentation which will be useful for a later patch.

Some of the "btf_kind_str[]" usages is replaced with the shortcut
"btf_type_str(t)".

On the kernel side, introduce a new btf_kind_operations. It is
similar to that of BTF_KIND_INT, however, it does not need to
handle encodings and bit offsets. Do not implement printing, since
the kernel does not know how to format floating-point values.

Now it is possible for global function to have a pointer argument that
points to something different than struct. Drop the irrelevant log
message and keep the logic same.

Add an ability to pass a pointer to a type with known size in arguments
of a global function. Such pointers may be used to overcome the limit on
the maximum number of arguments, avoid expensive and tricky workarounds
and to have multiple output arguments.

A referenced type may contain pointers but indirect access through them
isn't supported.

The implementation consists of two parts.  If a global function has an
argument that is a pointer to a type with known size then:

  1) In btf_check_func_arg_match(): check that the corresponding
register points to NULL or to a valid memory region that is large enough
to contain the expected argument's type.

  2) In btf_prepare_func_args(): set the corresponding register type to
PTR_TO_MEM_OR_NULL and its size to the size of the expected type.

Only global functions are supported because allowance of pointers for
static functions might break validation. Consider the following
scenario. A static function has a pointer argument. A caller passes
pointer to its stack memory. Because the callee can change referenced
memory verifier cannot longer assume any particular slot type of the
caller's stack memory hence the slot type is changed to SLOT_MISC.  If
there is an operation that relies on slot type other than SLOT_MISC then
verifier won't be able to infer safety of the operation.

When verifier sees a static function that has a pointer argument
different from PTR_TO_CTX then it skips arguments check and continues
with "inline" validation with more information available. The operation
that relies on the particular slot type now succeeds.

Because global functions were not allowed to have pointer arguments
different from PTR_TO_CTX it's not possible to break existing and valid
code.

Using "reg" for an array of bpf_reg_state and "reg[i + 1]" for an
individual bpf_reg_state is error-prone and verbose. Use "regs" for the
former and "reg" for the latter as other code nearby does.
