The btf.h header included with libbpf contains inline helper functions to
check for various BTF kinds. These helpers directly reference the
BTF_KIND_* constants defined in the kernel header, and because the header
file is included in user applications, this happens in the user application
compile units.
This presents a problem if a user application is compiled on a system with
older kernel headers because the constants are not available. To avoid
this, add #defines of the constants directly in btf.h before using them.
Since the kernel header moved to an enum for BTF_KIND_*, the #defines can
shadow the enum values without any errors, so we only need #ifndef guards
for the constants that predates the conversion to enum. We group these so
there's only one guard for groups of values that were added together.

The previous patch to ignore STT_SECTION symbols only added the ignore
condition in one of them. This fails if there's more than one map
definition in the 'maps' section, because the subsequent modulus check will
fail, resulting in error messages like:
libbpf: elf: unable to determine legacy map definition size in ./xdpdump_xdp.o

When parsing legacy map definitions, libbpf would error out when
encountering an STT_SECTION symbol. This becomes a problem because some
versions of binutils will produce SECTION symbols for every section when
processing an ELF file, so BPF files run through 'strip' will end up with
such symbols, making libbpf refuse to load them.
There's not really any reason why erroring out is strictly necessary, so
change libbpf to just ignore SECTION symbols when parsing the ELF.

The update to streamline libbpf error reporting intended to change all
functions to return the errno as a negative return value if
LIBBPF_STRICT_DIRECT_ERRS is set. However, if the flag is *not* set, the
return value changes for the two functions that were already returning a
negative errno unconditionally: bpf_link__unpin() and perf_buffer__poll().
This is a user-visible API change that breaks applications; so let's revert
these two functions back to unconditionally returning a negative errno
value.

When we added sanitising of map names before loading programs to libbpf, we
still allowed periods in the name. While the kernel will accept these for
the map names themselves, they are not allowed in file names when pinning
maps. This means that bpf_object__pin_maps() will fail if called on an
object that contains internal maps (such as sections .rodata).
Fix this by replacing periods with underscores when constructing map pin
paths. This only affects the paths generated by libbpf when
bpf_object__pin_maps() is called with a path argument. Any pin paths set
by bpf_map__set_pin_path() are unaffected, and it will still be up to the
caller to avoid invalid characters in those.

This enables support for attaching freplace programs to multiple attach
points. It does this by amending the UAPI for bpf_link_Create with a target
btf ID that can be used to supply the new attachment point along with the
target program fd. The target must be compatible with the target that was
supplied at program load time.
The implementation reuses the checks that were factored out of
check_attach_btf_id() to ensure compatibility between the BTF types of the
old and new attachment. If these match, a new bpf_tracing_link will be
created for the new attach target, allowing multiple attachments to
co-exist simultaneously.
The code could theoretically support multiple-attach of other types of
tracing programs as well, but since I don't have a use case for any of
those, there is no API support for doing so.

For internal maps (most notably the maps backing global variables), libbpf
uses an internal mmaped area to store the data after opening the object.
This data is subsequently copied into the kernel map when the object is
loaded.
This adds a function to set a new value for that data, which can be used to
before it is loaded into the kernel. This is especially relevant for RODATA

Probably the single most common error newcomers to XDP are stumped by is
the 'permission denied' error they get when trying to load their program
and 'ulimit -l' is set too low. For examples, see [0], [1].
Since the error code is UAPI, we can't change that. Instead, this patch
adds a few heuristics in libbpf and outputs an additional hint if they are
met: If an EPERM is returned on map create or program load, and geteuid()
shows we are root, and the current RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is not infinity, we
output a hint about raising 'ulimit -l' as an additional log line.

When loading an eBPF program, libbpf overrides the return code for EPERM
errors instead of returning it to the caller. This makes it hard to figure
out what went wrong on load.
In particular, EPERM is returned when the system rlimit is too low to lock
the memory required for the BPF program. Previously, this was somewhat
obscured because the rlimit error would be hit on map creation (which does
return it correctly). However, since maps can now be reused, object load
can proceed all the way to loading programs without hitting the error;
propagating it even in this case makes it possible for the caller to react
appropriately (and, e.g., attempt to raise the rlimit before retrying).

Since the automatic map-pinning happens during load, it will leave pinned
maps around if the load fails at a later stage. Fix this by unpinning any
pinned maps on cleanup. To avoid unpinning pinned maps that were reused
rather than newly pinned, add a new boolean property on struct bpf_map to
keep track of whether that map was reused or not; and only unpin those maps
that were not reused.

This adds support to libbpf for setting map pinning information as part of
the BTF map declaration, to get automatic map pinning (and reuse) on load.
The pinning type currently only supports a single PIN_BY_NAME mode, where
each map will be pinned by its name in a path that can be overridden, but
defaults to /sys/fs/bpf.
Since auto-pinning only does something if any maps actually have a
'pinning' BTF attribute set, we default the new option to enabled, on the
assumption that seamless pinning is what most callers want.
When a map has a pin_path set at load time, libbpf will compare the map
pinned at that location (if any), and if the attributes match, will re-use
that map instead of creating a new one. If no existing map is found, the
newly created map will instead be pinned at the location.
Programs wanting to customise the pinning can override the pinning paths
using bpf_map__set_pin_path() before calling bpf_object__load() (including
setting it to NULL to disable pinning of a particular map).

The xsk_socket__create() function fails and returns an error if it cannot
get the XDP_OPTIONS through getsockopt(). However, support for XDP_OPTIONS
was not added until kernel 5.3, so this means that creating XSK sockets

Since the option is just used to set the zero-copy flag in the xsk struct,
and that flag is not really used for anything yet, just remove the
getsockopt() call until a proper use for it is introduced.
