bpf: implement btf handling and map annotation
Implement loading of .BTF section from object file and build up
internal table for retrieving key/value id related to maps in
the BPF program. Latter is done by setting up struct btf_type
table.
One of the issues is that there's a disconnect between the data
types used in the map and struct bpf_elf_map, meaning the underlying
types are unknown from the map description. One way to overcome
this is to add a annotation such that the loader will recognize
the relation to both. BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR(map_foo, struct key,
struct val); has been added to the API that programs can use.
The loader will then pick the corresponding key/value type ids and
attach it to the maps for creation. This can later on be dumped via
bpftool for introspection.
Example with test_xdp_noinline.o from kernel selftests:
[...]
struct ctl_value {
union {
__u64 value;
__u32 ifindex;
__u8 mac[6];
};
};
struct bpf_map_def __attribute__ ((section("maps"), used)) ctl_array = {
.type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY,
.key_size = sizeof(__u32),
.value_size = sizeof(struct ctl_value),
.max_entries = 16,
.map_flags = 0,
};
BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR(ctl_array, __u32, struct ctl_value);
[...]
Above could also further be wrapped in a macro. Compiling through LLVM and
converting to BTF:
# llc --version

# clang [...] -O2 -target bpf -g -emit-llvm -c test_xdp_noinline.c -o - |
llc -march=bpf -mcpu=probe -mattr=dwarfris -filetype=obj -o test_xdp_noinline.o
# pahole -J test_xdp_noinline.o
Checking pahole dump of BPF object file:
# file test_xdp_noinline.o
test_xdp_noinline.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, *unknown arch 0xf7* version 1 (SYSV), with debug_info, not stripped
# pahole test_xdp_noinline.o
[...]
struct ctl_value {
union {
__u64 value; /* 0 8 */
__u32 ifindex; /* 0 4 */
__u8 mac[0]; /* 0 0 */
}; /* 0 8 */
/* size: 8, cachelines: 1, members: 1 */
/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};
Now loading into kernel and dumping the map via bpftool:
# ip -force link set dev lo xdp obj test_xdp_noinline.o sec xdp-test
# ip a
