[Changes from V1:
- Avoid conflict by rebasing with latest master.]
Some BPF tests use loop unrolling compiler pragmas that are clang
specific and not supported by GCC. These pragmas, along with their
GCC equivalences are:
#pragma clang loop unroll_count(N)
#pragma GCC unroll N
#pragma clang loop unroll(full)
#pragma GCC unroll 65534
#pragma clang loop unroll(disable)
#pragma GCC unroll 1
#pragma unroll [aka #pragma clang loop unroll(enable)]
There is no GCC equivalence to this pragma. It enables unrolling on
loops that the compiler would not ordinarily unroll even with
-O2|-funroll-loops, but it is not equivalent to full unrolling
either.
This patch adds a new header progs/bpf_compiler.h that defines the
following macros, which correspond to each pair of compiler-specific
pragmas above:
__pragma_loop_unroll_count(N)
__pragma_loop_unroll_full
__pragma_loop_no_unroll
__pragma_loop_unroll
The selftests using loop unrolling pragmas are then changed to include
the header and use these macros in place of the explicit pragmas.
Tested in bpf-next master.
No regressions.

Once we enable -Wall for BPF sources, compiler will complain about lots
of unused variables, variables that are set but never read, etc.
Fix all these issues first before enabling -Wall in Makefile.

Add bpf_for_each(), bpf_for(), and bpf_repeat() macros that make writing
open-coded iterator-based loops much more convenient and natural. These
macros utilize cleanup attribute to ensure proper destruction of the
iterator and thanks to that manage to provide the ergonomics that is
very close to C language's for() construct. Typical loop would look like:
int i;
int arr[N];
bpf_for(i, 0, N) {
/* verifier will know that i >= 0 && i < N, so could be used to
* directly access array elements with no extra checks
*/
arr[i] = i;
}
bpf_repeat() is very similar, but it doesn't expose iteration number and
is meant as a simple "repeat action N times" loop:
bpf_repeat(N) { /* whatever, N times */ }
Note that `break` and `continue` statements inside the {} block work as
expected.
bpf_for_each() is a generalization over any kind of BPF open-coded
iterator allowing to use for-each-like approach instead of calling
low-level bpf_iter_<type>_{new,next,destroy}() APIs explicitly. E.g.:
struct cgroup *cg;
bpf_for_each(cgroup, cg, some, input, args) {
/* do something with each cg */
}
would call (not-yet-implemented) bpf_iter_cgroup_{new,next,destroy}()
functions to form a loop over cgroups, where `some, input, args` are
passed verbatim into constructor as
bpf_iter_cgroup_new(&it, some, input, args).
As a first demonstration, add pyperf variant based on the bpf_for() loop.
Also clean up a few tests that either included bpf_misc.h header
unnecessarily from the user-space, which is unsupported, or included it
before any common types are defined (and thus leading to unnecessary
compilation warnings, potentially).

Add barrier() and barrier_var() macros into bpf_helpers.h to be used by
end users. While a bit advanced and specialized instruments, they are
sometimes indispensable. Instead of requiring each user to figure out
exact asm volatile incantations for themselves, provide them from
bpf_helpers.h.
Also remove conflicting definitions from selftests. Some tests rely on
barrier_var() definition being nothing, those will still work as libbpf
does the #ifndef/#endif guarding for barrier() and barrier_var(),
allowing users to redefine them, if necessary.

This patch tests bpf_loop in pyperf and strobemeta, and measures the
verifier performance of replacing the traditional for loop
with bpf_loop.
The results are as follows:
~strobemeta~
Baseline
verification time 6808200 usec
stack depth 496
processed 554252 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 16
total_states 15878 peak_states 13489 mark_read 3110
#192 verif_scale_strobemeta:OK (unrolled loop)
Using bpf_loop
verification time 31589 usec
stack depth 96+400
processed 1513 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 2
total_states 106 peak_states 106 mark_read 60
#193 verif_scale_strobemeta_bpf_loop:OK
~pyperf600~
Baseline
verification time 29702486 usec
stack depth 368
processed 626838 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 7
total_states 30368 peak_states 30279 mark_read 748
#182 verif_scale_pyperf600:OK (unrolled loop)
Using bpf_loop
verification time 148488 usec
stack depth 320+40
processed 10518 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 10
total_states 705 peak_states 517 mark_read 38
#183 verif_scale_pyperf600_bpf_loop:OK
Using the bpf_loop helper led to approximately a 99% decrease
in the verification time and in the number of instructions.

Fix all selftests to include libbpf header files with the bpf/ prefix, to
be consistent with external users of the library. Also ensure that all
includes of exported libbpf header files (those that are exported on 'make
install' of the library) use bracketed includes instead of quoted.
To not break the build, keep the old include path until everything has been
changed to the new one; a subsequent patch will remove that.

Add a bunch of loop tests. Most of them are created by replacing
'#pragma unroll' with '#pragma clang loop unroll(disable)'
Several tests are artificially large:
/* partial unroll. llvm will unroll loop ~150 times.
* C loop count -> 600.
* Asm loop count -> 4.
* 16k insns in loop body.
* Total of 5 such loops. Total program size ~82k insns.
*/

Add a snippet of pyperf bpf program used to collect python stack traces
as a scale test for the verifier.
At 189 loop iterations llvm 9.0 starts ignoring '#pragma unroll'
and generates partially unrolled loop instead.
Hence use 50, 100, and 180 loop iterations to stress test.
