Jiri Olsa 5a2798ab32 bpf: Add BTF_ID_LIST/BTF_ID/BTF_ID_UNUSED macros
Adding support to generate .BTF_ids section that will hold BTF
ID lists for verifier.

Adding macros that will help to define lists of BTF ID values
placed in .BTF_ids section. They are initially filled with zeros
(during compilation) and resolved later during the linking phase
by resolve_btfids tool.

Following defines list of one BTF ID value:

  BTF_ID_LIST(bpf_skb_output_btf_ids)
  BTF_ID(struct, sk_buff)

It also defines following variable to access the list:

  extern u32 bpf_skb_output_btf_ids[];

The BTF_ID_UNUSED macro defines 4 zero bytes. It's used when we
want to define 'unused' entry in BTF_ID_LIST, like:

  BTF_ID_LIST(bpf_skb_output_btf_ids)
  BTF_ID(struct, sk_buff)
  BTF_ID_UNUSED
  BTF_ID(struct, task_struct)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
