Currently, we cannot parse build_id in nmi context because of
up_read(¤t->mm->mmap_sem), this makes stackmap with build_id
less useful. This patch enables parsing build_id in nmi by putting
the up_read() call in irq_work. To avoid memory allocation in nmi
context, we use per cpu variable for the irq_work. As a result, only
one irq_work per cpu is allowed. If the irq_work is in-use, we
fallback to only report ips.

This series started out as a follow up to the bpftool perf event dumping
patches.
As suggested by Daniel patch 1 makes use of PERF_SAMPLE_TIME to simplify
code and improve accuracy of timestamps.
Remaining patches are trying to move perf event loop into libbpf as
suggested by Alexei. One user for this new function is bpftool which
links with libbpf nicely, the other, unfortunately, is in samples/bpf.
Remaining patches make samples/bpf link against full libbpf.a (not just
a handful of objects). Once we have full power of libbpf at our disposal
we can convert some of XDP samples to use libbpf loader instead of
bpf_load.c. My understanding is that this is the desired direction,
at least for networking code.

Now that we can use full powers of libbpf in BPF samples, we
should perhaps make the simplest XDP programs not depend on
bpf_load helpers. This way newcomers will be exposed to the
recommended library from the start.
Use of bpf_prog_load_xattr() will also make it trivial to later
on request offload of the programs by simply adding ifindex to
the xattr.

BPF programs only have to specify the target kernel version for
tracing related hooks, in networking world that requirement does
not really apply. Loosen the checks in libbpf to reflect that.
bpf_object__open() users will continue to see the error for backward
compatibility (and because prog_type is not available there).

Provide a helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookup in the kernel
tables from an XDP program. The helper provides a fastpath for forwarding
packets. If the packet is a local delivery or for any reason is not a
simple lookup and forward, the packet is expected to continue up the stack
for full processing.
The response from a FIB and neighbor lookup is either the egress index
with the bpf_fib_lookup struct filled in with dmac and gateway or
0 meaning the packet should continue up the stack. In time we can
revisit this to return the FIB lookup result errno if it is one of the
special RTN_'s such as RTN_BLACKHOLE (-EINVAL) so that the XDP
programs can do an early drop if desired.
Patches 1-6 do some more refactoring to IPv6 with the end goal of
extracting a FIB lookup function that aligns with fib_lookup for IPv4,
basically returning a fib6_info without creating a dst based entry.
Patch 7 adds lookup functions to the ipv6 stub. These are needed since
bpf is built into the kernel and ipv6 may not be built or loaded.
Patch 8 adds the bpf helper and 9 adds a sample program.

Provide a helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookup in the kernel
tables from an XDP program. The helper provides a fastpath for forwarding
packets. If the packet is a local delivery or for any reason is not a
simple lookup and forward, the packet continues up the stack.
If it is to be forwarded, the forwarding can be done directly if the
neighbor is already known. If the neighbor does not exist, the first
few packets go up the stack for neighbor resolution. Once resolved, the
xdp program provides the fast path.
On successful lookup the nexthop dmac, current device smac and egress
device index are returned.
The API supports IPv4, IPv6 and MPLS protocols, but only IPv4 and IPv6
are implemented in this patch. The API includes layer 4 parameters if
the XDP program chooses to do deep packet inspection to allow compare
against ACLs implemented as FIB rules.
Header rewrite is left to the XDP program.
The lookup takes 2 flags:
- BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT to do a lookup that bypasses FIB rules and goes
straight to the table associated with the device (expert setting for
those looking to maximize throughput)
- BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT to do a lookup from the egress perspective.
Default is an ingress lookup.

fib6_lookup is any where from 140% (MULTIPLE_TABLES config disabled)
to 60% faster than any of the dst based lookup methods (without custom
rules) and 25% faster with custom rules (e.g., l3mdev rule).
Since the lookup function has a completely different signature,
fib6_rule_action is split into 2 paths: the existing one is
renamed __fib6_rule_action and a new one for the fib6_info path
is added. fib6_rule_action decides which to call based on the
lookup_ptr. If it is fib6_table_lookup then the new path is taken.
Caller must hold rcu lock as no reference is taken on the returned

been done and it shouldn't overwrite it. Define a bit to tell datapath
BPF already selected a queue (QSEL_SET), if the selected queue is not
enabled (>= number of enabled queues) datapath will perform normal RSS.

userspace can stop seeing the BTF ID ASAP when the last BTF
refcnt is gone.
It also makes BTF accessible from userspace through the
1. new BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID command. It is limited to CAP_SYS_ADMIN
which is inline with the BPF_BTF_LOAD cmd and the existing
BPF_[MAP|PROG]_GET_FD_BY_ID cmd.
2. new btf_id (and btf_key_id + btf_value_id) in "struct bpf_map_info"
Once the BTF ID handler is accessible from userspace, freeing a BTF
object has to go through a rcu period. The BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID cmd
can then be done under a rcu_read_lock() instead of taking
spin_lock.
[Note: A similar rcu usage can be done to the existing
bpf_prog_get_fd_by_id() in a follow up patch]

refcount_inc_not_zero() is needed because the BTF object

The current code already forwards the VF MAC address to the PF, except
in one case. If the VF driver gets a valid MAC address from the firmware
during probe time, it will not forward the MAC address to the PF,
incorrectly assuming that the PF already knows the MAC address. This
causes "ip link show" to show zero VF MAC addresses for this case.
This assumption is not correct. Newer firmware remembers the VF MAC
address last used by the VF and provides it to the VF driver during
probe. So we need to always forward the VF MAC address to the PF.
The forwarded MAC address may now be the PF assigned MAC address and so we
need to make sure we approve it for this case.
