[ Upstream commit 369e955b3d1c12f6ec2e51a95911bb80ada55d79 ]

Make sure to call btf__free() (and not simply free(), which does not
free all pointers stored in the struct) on pointers to struct btf
objects retrieved at various locations.

These were found while updating the calls to btf__get_from_id().

<title>bpftool: Dump more info about DATASEC members</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5b438f01d7eb2dc9bec7cd79de881b5f155d9a71</id>
<content type='text'>
Dump succinct information for each member of DATASEC: its kinds and name. This
is extremely helpful to see at a quick glance what is inside each DATASEC of
a given BTF. Without this, one has to jump around BTF data to just find out
the name of a VAR or FUNC. DATASEC's var_secinfo member is special in that
regard because it doesn't itself contain the name of the member, delegating
that to the referenced VAR and FUNC kinds. Other kinds, like
STRUCT/UNION/FUNC/ENUM, encode member names directly and thus are clearly
identifiable in BTF dump.

The new output looks like this:

[35] DATASEC '.bss' size=0 vlen=6
        type_id=8 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'input_bss1')
        type_id=13 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'input_bss_weak')
        type_id=16 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'output_bss1')
        type_id=17 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'output_data1')
        type_id=18 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'output_rodata1')
        type_id=20 offset=0 size=8 (VAR 'output_sink1')
[36] DATASEC '.data' size=0 vlen=2
        type_id=9 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'input_data1')
        type_id=14 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'input_data_weak')
[37] DATASEC '.kconfig' size=0 vlen=2
        type_id=25 offset=0 size=4 (VAR 'LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION')
        type_id=28 offset=0 size=1 (VAR 'CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL')

<title>bpftool: Fix a clang compilation warning</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8af50142763c6e70d426e45278b23d7103e5b7a7</id>
<content type='text'>
With clang compiler:
  make -j60 LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1  &lt;=== compile kernel
  # build selftests/bpf or bpftool
  make -j60 -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
  make -j60 -C tools/bpf/bpftool LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
the following compilation warning showed up,
  net.c:160:37: warning: comparison of integers of different signs: '__u32' (aka 'unsigned int') and 'int' [-Wsign-compare]
                for (nh = (struct nlmsghdr *)buf; NLMSG_OK(nh, len);
                                                  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  .../tools/include/uapi/linux/netlink.h:99:24: note: expanded from macro 'NLMSG_OK'
                           (nlh)-&gt;nlmsg_len &lt;= (len))
                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^   ~~~

In this particular case, "len" is defined as "int" and (nlh)-&gt;nlmsg_len is "unsigned int".
The macro NLMSG_OK is defined as below in uapi/linux/netlink.h.
  #define NLMSG_OK(nlh,len) ((len) &gt;= (int)sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) &amp;&amp; \
                             (nlh)-&gt;nlmsg_len &gt;= sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) &amp;&amp; \
                             (nlh)-&gt;nlmsg_len &lt;= (len))

The clang compiler complains the comparision "(nlh)-&gt;nlmsg_len &lt;= (len))",
but in bpftool/net.c, it is already ensured that "len &gt; 0" must be true.
So theoretically the compiler could deduce that comparison of
"(nlh)-&gt;nlmsg_len" and "len" is okay, but this really depends on compiler
internals. Let us add an explicit type conversion (from "int" to "unsigned int")
for "len" in NLMSG_OK to silence this warning right now.

<content type='text'>
Reusing BPF_SK_SKB_STREAM_VERDICT is possible but its name is
confusing and more importantly we still want to distinguish them
from user-space. So we can just reuse the stream verdict code but
introduce a new type of eBPF program, skb_verdict. Users are not
allowed to attach stream_verdict and skb_verdict programs to the
same map.

<id>urn:sha1:d80b2fcbe0a023619e0fc73112f2a02c2662f6ab</id>
<content type='text'>
Add `bpftool gen object &lt;output-file&gt; &lt;input_file&gt;...` command to statically
link multiple BPF ELF object files into a single output BPF ELF object file.

This patch also updates bash completions and man page. Man page gets a short
section on `gen object` command, but also updates the skeleton example to show
off workflow for BPF application with two .bpf.c files, compiled individually
with Clang, then resulting object files are linked together with `gen object`,
and then final object file is used to generate usable BPF skeleton. This
should help new users understand realistic workflow w.r.t. compiling
mutli-file BPF application.
