libbpf,bpf: Share BTF relocate-related code with kernel

2024-06-21T21:45:07Z

Share relocation implementation with the kernel. As part of this, we also need the type/string iteration functions so also share btf_iter.c file. Relocation code in kernel and userspace is identical save for the impementation of the reparenting of split BTF to the relocated base BTF and retrieval of the BTF header from "struct btf"; these small functions need separate user-space and kernel implementations for the separate "struct btf"s they operate upon. One other wrinkle on the kernel side is we have to map .BTF.ids in modules as they were generated with the type ids used at BTF encoding time. btf_relocate() optionally returns an array mapping from old BTF ids to relocated ids, so we use that to fix up these references where needed for kfuncs.

This will allow it to be shared with the kernel. No functional change. Suggested-by: Andrii Nakryiko Signed-off-by: Alan Maguire Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240620091733.1967885-4-alan.maguire@oracle.com
