Merge branch 'Introduce unstable CT lookup helpers'

Kumar Kartikeya says:

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

This series adds unstable conntrack lookup helpers using BPF kfunc support.  The
patch adding the lookup helper is based off of Maxim's recent patch to aid in
rebasing their series on top of this, all adjusted to work with module kfuncs [0].

  [0]: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211019144655.3483197-8-maximmi@nvidia.com

To enable returning a reference to struct nf_conn, the verifier is extended to
support reference tracking for PTR_TO_BTF_ID, and kfunc is extended with support
for working as acquire/release functions, similar to existing BPF helpers. kfunc
returning pointer (limited to PTR_TO_BTF_ID in the kernel) can also return a
PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL now, typically needed when acquiring a resource can fail.
kfunc can also receive PTR_TO_CTX and PTR_TO_MEM (with some limitations) as
arguments now. There is also support for passing a mem, len pair as argument
to kfunc now. In such cases, passing pointer to unsized type (void) is also
permitted.

Please see individual commits for details.

 * Drop verbose log for unlikely failure case in __find_kfunc_desc_btf (Alexei)
 * Remove unnecessary barrier in register_btf_kfunc_id_set (Alexei)
 * Switch macro in bpf_nf test to __always_inline function (Alexei)

v6 -> v7:
v6: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20220102162115.1506833-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Drop try_module_get_live patch, use flag in btf_module struct (Alexei)
 * Add comments and expand commit message detailing why we have to concatenate
   and sort vmlinux kfunc BTF ID sets (Alexei)
 * Use bpf_testmod for testing btf_try_get_module race (Alexei)
 * Use bpf_prog_type for both btf_kfunc_id_set_contains and
   register_btf_kfunc_id_set calls (Alexei)
 * In case of module set registration, directly assign set (Alexei)
 * Add CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=y to selftest config
 * Fix other nits

v5 -> v6:
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211230023705.3860970-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Fix for a bug in btf_try_get_module leading to use-after-free
 * Drop *kallsyms_on_each_symbol loop, reinstate register_btf_kfunc_id_set (Alexei)
 * btf_free_kfunc_set_tab now takes struct btf, and handles resetting tab to NULL
 * Check return value btf_name_by_offset for param_name
 * Instead of using tmp_set, use btf->kfunc_set_tab directly, and simplify cleanup

v4 -> v5:
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211217015031.1278167-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Move nf_conntrack helpers code to its own separate file (Toke, Pablo)
 * Remove verifier callbacks, put btf_id_sets in struct btf (Alexei)
  * Convert the in-kernel users away from the old API
 * Change len__ prefix convention to __sz suffix (Alexei)
 * Drop parent_ref_obj_id patch (Alexei)

v3 -> v4:
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211210130230.4128676-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Guard unstable CT helpers with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES
 * Move addition of prog_test test kfuncs to selftest commit
 * Move negative kfunc tests to test_verifier suite
 * Limit struct nesting depth to 4, which should be enough for now

v2 -> v3:
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211209170929.3485242-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Limit PTR_TO_MEM support to pointer to scalar, or struct with scalars (Alexei)
 * Use btf_id_set for checking acquire, release, ret type null (Alexei)
 * Introduce opts struct for CT helpers, move int err parameter to it

 * Add support for mem, len argument pair to kfunc
 * Allow void * as pointer type for mem, len argument pair
 * Extend selftests to cover new additions to kfuncs
