With [0], pahole can now discover kfuncs and inject DECL_TAG
into BTF. With this commit, we will start shipping said DECL_TAGs
to downstream consumers if pahole supports it.

This is useful for feature probing kfuncs as well as generating
compilable prototypes. This is particularly important as kfuncs
do not have stable ABI.

bpf_iter_task_vma_new() is defined as taking a u64 as its 3rd argument.
u64 is a unsigned long long. bpf_experimental.h was defining the
prototype as unsigned long.

Fix by using __u64.

Some prototypes in progs/get_func_ip_test.c were not in line with how the
actual kfuncs are defined in net/bpf/test_run.c. This causes compilation
errors when kfunc prototypes are generated from BTF.

Fix by aligning with actual kfunc definitions.

Also remove two unused prototypes.

The prototype in progs/nested_trust_common.h is not in line with how the
actual kfuncs are defined in kernel/bpf/cpumask.c. This causes compilation

We will soon be generating kfunc prototypes from BTF. As part of that,
we need to align the manual signatures in bpf_kfuncs.h with the actual
kfunc definitions. There is currently a conflicting signature for
bpf_session_cookie() w.r.t. return type.

The original intent was to return long * and not __u64 *. You can see
evidence of that intent in a3a5113 ("selftests/bpf: Add kprobe
session cookie test").

Fix conflict by changing kfunc definition.

With generated kfunc prototypes, the existing callback names will
conflict. Fix by namespacing with a bpf_ prefix.

Signed-off-by: Daniel Xu <dxu@dxuuu.xyz>
Currently, if a kfunc accepts a projection type as an argument (eg
struct __sk_buff *), the caller must exactly provide exactly the same
type with provable provenance.

However in practice, kfuncs that accept projection types _must_ cast to
the underlying type before use b/c projection type layouts are
completely made up. Thus, it is ok to relax the verifier rules around
implicit conversions.

We will use this functionality in the next commit when we align kfuncs
to user-facing types.

Signed-off-by: Daniel Xu <dxu@dxuuu.xyz>
Previously, kfunc declarations in bpf_kfuncs.h (and others) used "user
facing" types for kfuncs prototypes while the actual kfunc definitions
used "kernel facing" types. More specifically: bpf_dynptr vs
bpf_dynptr_kern, __sk_buff vs sk_buff, and xdp_md vs xdp_buff.

It wasn't an issue before, as the verifier allows aliased types.
However, since we are now generating kfunc prototypes in vmlinux.h (in
addition to keeping bpf_kfuncs.h around), this conflict creates
compilation errors.

Fix this conflict by using "user facing" types in kfunc definitions.
This results in more casts, but otherwise has no additional runtime
cost.

Note, similar to 5b268d1 ("bpf: Have bpf_rdonly_cast() take a const
pointer"), we also make kfuncs take const arguments where appropriate in
order to make the kfunc more permissive.

The bpf-nf selftests play various games with aliased types such that
folks with CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m/n configs can still build the
selftests. See commits:

1058b6a ("selftests/bpf: Do not fail build if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m/n")
92afc53 ("selftests/bpf: Fix build errors if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m")

Thus, it is simpler if these selftests opt out of using generated kfunc
prototypes. The preprocessor macro this commit uses will be introduced
in the final commit.

The xfrm_info selftest locally defines an aliased type such that folks
with CONFIG_XFRM_INTERFACE=m/n configs can still build the selftests.
See commit aa67961 ("selftests/bpf: Allow building bpf tests with CONFIG_XFRM_INTERFACE=[m|n]").

Thus, it is simpler if this selftest opts out of using enerated kfunc
prototypes. The preprocessor macro this commit uses will be introduced
in the final commit.

This patch enables dumping kfunc prototypes from bpftool. This is useful
b/c with this patch, end users will no longer have to manually define
kfunc prototypes. For the kernel tree, this also means we can optionally
drop kfunc prototypes from:

        tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_kfuncs.h
        tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_experimental.h

Example usage:

        $ make PAHOLE=/home/dxu/dev/pahole/build/pahole -j30 vmlinux

        $ ./tools/bpf/bpftool/bpftool btf dump file ./vmlinux format c | rg "__ksym;" | head -3
        extern void cgroup_rstat_updated(struct cgroup *cgrp, int cpu) __weak __ksym;
        extern void cgroup_rstat_flush(struct cgroup *cgrp) __weak __ksym;
        extern struct bpf_key *bpf_lookup_user_key(u32 serial, u64 flags) __weak __ksym;
