Merge branch 'Allocated objects, BPF linked lists'

Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi says:

====================

This series introduces user defined BPF objects of a type in program
BTF. This allows BPF programs to allocate their own objects, build their
own object hierarchies, and use the basic building blocks provided by
BPF runtime to build their own data structures flexibly.

Then, we introduce the support for single ownership BPF linked lists,
which can be put inside BPF maps, or allocated objects, and hold such
allocated objects as elements. It works as an instrusive collection,
which is done to allow making allocated objects part of multiple data
structures at the same time in the future.

The eventual goal of this and future patches is to allow one to do some
limited form of kernel style programming in BPF C, and allow programmers
to build their own complex data structures flexibly out of basic
building blocks.

The key difference will be that such programs are verified to be safe,
preserve runtime integrity of the system, and are proven to be bug free
as far as the invariants of BPF specific APIs are concerned.

One immediate use case that will be using the entire infrastructure this
series is introducing will be managing percpu NMI safe linked lists
inside BPF programs.

The other use case this will serve in the near future will be linking
kernel structures like XDP frame and sk_buff directly into user data
structures (rbtree, pifomap, etc.) for packet queueing. This will follow
single ownership concept included in this series.

The user has complete control of the internal locking, and hence also
the batching of operations for each critical section.

The features are:
- Allocated objects.
- bpf_obj_new, bpf_obj_drop to allocate and free them.
- Single ownership BPF linked lists.
  - Support for them in BPF maps.
  - Support for them in allocated objects.
- Global spin locks.
- Spin locks inside allocated objects.

Some other notable things:
- Completely static verification of locking.
- Kfunc argument handling has been completely reworked.
- Argument rewriting support for kfuncs.
- A new bpf_experimental.h header as a dumping ground for these APIs.

Any functionality exposed in this series is NOT part of UAPI. It is only
available through use of kfuncs, and structs that can be added to map
value may also change their size or name in the future. Hence, every
feature in this series must be considered experimental.

Follow-ups:
-----------
 * Support for kptrs (local and kernel) in local storage and percpu maps + kptr tests
 * Fixes for helper access checks rebasing on top of this series

Next steps:
-----------
 * NMI safe percpu single ownership linked lists (using local_t protection).
 * Lockless linked lists.
 * Allow RCU protected BPF allocated objects. This then allows RCU
   protected list lookups, since spinlock protection for readers does
   not scale.
 * Introduce bpf_refcount for local kptrs, shared ownership.
 * Introduce shared ownership linked lists.
 * Documentation.
