Since the "last_dissection" map holds only the flow keys for the most
recent packet, there is a small race in the skb-less flow dissector
tests if a new packet comes between transmitting the test packet, and
reading its keys from the map. If this happens, the test packet keys
will be overwritten and the test will fail.

Changing the "last_dissection" map to a hash map, keyed on the
source/dest port pair resolves this issue. Additionally, let's clear the
last test results from the map between tests to prevent previous test
cases from interfering with the following test cases.

Make .BTF section allocated and expose its contents through sysfs.

/sys/kernel/btf directory is created to contain all the BTFs present
inside kernel. Currently there is only kernel's main BTF, represented as
/sys/kernel/btf/kernel file. Once kernel modules' BTFs are supported,
each module will expose its BTF as /sys/kernel/btf/<module-name> file.

Current approach relies on a few pieces coming together:
1. pahole is used to take almost final vmlinux image (modulo .BTF and
   kallsyms) and generate .BTF section by converting DWARF info into
   BTF. This section is not allocated and not mapped to any segment,
   though, so is not yet accessible from inside kernel at runtime.
2. objcopy dumps .BTF contents into binary file and subsequently
   convert binary file into linkable object file with automatically
   generated symbols _binary__btf_kernel_bin_start and
   _binary__btf_kernel_bin_end, pointing to start and end, respectively,
   of BTF raw data.
3. final vmlinux image is generated by linking this object file (and
   kallsyms, if necessary). sysfs_btf.c then creates
   /sys/kernel/btf/kernel file and exposes embedded BTF contents through
   it. This allows, e.g., libbpf and bpftool access BTF info at
   well-known location, without resorting to searching for vmlinux image
   on disk (location of which is not standardized and vmlinux image
   might not be even available in some scenarios, e.g., inside qemu
   during testing).

Alternative approach using .incbin assembler directive to embed BTF
contents directly was attempted but didn't work, because sysfs_proc.o is
not re-compiled during link-vmlinux.sh stage. This is required, though,
to update embedded BTF data (initially empty data is embedded, then
pahole generates BTF info and we need to regenerate sysfs_btf.o with
updated contents, but it's too late at that point).

If BTF couldn't be generated due to missing or too old pahole,
sysfs_btf.c handles that gracefully by detecting that
_binary__btf_kernel_bin_start (weak symbol) is 0 and not creating
/sys/kernel/btf at all.

v2->v3:
- added Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-btf (Greg K-H);
- created proper kobject (btf_kobj) for btf directory (Greg K-H);
- undo v2 change of reusing vmlinux, as it causes extra kallsyms pass
  due to initially missing  __binary__btf_kernel_bin_{start/end} symbols;

v1->v2:
- allow kallsyms stage to re-use vmlinux generated by gen_btf();

Many portions of the driver need to wait until a given bit is set

operation. In preparation for such variant, implement a generic Wait
Bit routine that can be used by the driver core functions.

This allows us to get rid of the custom implementations we may find
in the driver. Note that for the EEPROM bits, BUSY and RUNNING bits
are independent, thus it is more efficient to wait independently for
each bit instead of waiting for their mask.

Unfortunately this 2.5Gbps PHY shares the PHY ID with the integrated
1Gbps PHY's in other Realtek network chips and so far no method is
known to differentiate them. As a workaround use a dedicated fake PHY ID
that is set by the network driver by intercepting the MDIO PHY ID read.

drop_monitor: Capture dropped packets and metadata

So far drop monitor supported only one mode of operation in which a
summary of recent packet drops is periodically sent to user space as a
netlink event. The event only includes the drop location (program
counter) and number of drops in the last interval.

While this mode of operation allows one to understand if the system is
dropping packets, it is not sufficient if a more detailed analysis is
required. Both the packet itself and related metadata are missing.

This patchset extends drop monitor with another mode of operation where
the packet - potentially truncated - and metadata (e.g., drop location,
timestamp, netdev) are sent to user space as a netlink event. Thanks to
the extensible nature of netlink, more metadata can be added in the
future.

To avoid performing expensive operations in the context in which
kfree_skb() is called, the dropped skbs are cloned and queued on per-CPU
skb drop list. The list is then processed in process context (using a
workqueue), where the netlink messages are allocated, prepared and
finally sent to user space.

A follow-up patchset will integrate drop monitor with devlink and allow
the latter to call into drop monitor to report hardware drops. In the
future, XDP drops can be added as well, thereby making drop monitor the
go-to netlink channel for diagnosing all packet drops.

Example usage with patched dropwatch [1] can be found here [2]. Example
dissection of drop monitor netlink events with patched wireshark [3] can
be found here [4]. I will submit both changes upstream after the kernel
changes are accepted. Another change worth making is adding a dropmon
pseudo interface to libpcap, similar to the nflog interface [5]. This
will allow users to specifically listen on dropmon traffic instead of
capturing all netlink packets via the nlmon netdev.

Patches #1-#5 prepare the code towards the actual changes in later
patches.

Patch #6 adds another mode of operation to drop monitor in which the
dropped packet itself is notified to user space along with metadata.

Patch #7 allows users to truncate reported packets to a specific length,
in case only the headers are of interest. The original length of the
packet is added as metadata to the netlink notification.

Patch #8 allows user to query the current configuration of drop monitor
(e.g., alert mode, truncation length).

Patches #9-#10 allow users to tune the length of the per-CPU skb drop
list according to their needs.

Changes since v1 [6]:
* Add skb protocol as metadata. This allows user space to correctly
  dissect the packet instead of blindly assuming it is an Ethernet
  packet

Changes since RFC [7]:
* Limit the length of the per-CPU skb drop list and make it configurable
* Do not use the hysteresis timer in packet alert mode
* Introduce alert mode operations in a separate patch and only then
  introduce the new alert mode
* Use 'skb->skb_iif' instead of 'skb->dev' because the latter is inside
  a union with 'dev_scratch' and therefore not guaranteed to point to a
  valid netdev
* Return '-EBUSY' instead of '-EOPNOTSUPP' when trying to configure drop
  monitor while it is monitoring
* Did not change schedule_work() in favor of schedule_work_on() as I did
  not observe a change in number of tail drops

kfree_skb() is invoked (can be hard IRQ), the dropped skb is cloned and
queued on per-CPU skb drop list. Then, in process context the netlink
message is allocated, prepared and finally sent to user space.

The per-CPU skb drop list is limited to 1000 skbs to prevent exhausting
the system's memory. Subsequent patches will make this limit
configurable and also add a counter that indicates how many skbs were
tail dropped.

The next patch is going to add another alert mode in which the dropped
packet is notified to user space, instead of only a summary of recent
drops.

Abstract the differences between the modes by adding alert mode
operations. The operations are selected based on the currently
configured mode and associated with the probes and the work item just
before tracing starts.

Currently, the configure command does not do anything but return an
error. Subsequent patches will enable the command to change various
configuration options such as alert mode and packet truncation.

Similar to other netlink-based configuration channels, make sure only
users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability set can execute this command.

The function reset_per_cpu_data() allocates and prepares a new skb for
the summary netlink alert message ('NET_DM_CMD_ALERT'). The new skb is
stored in the per-CPU 'data' variable and the old is returned.

The function is invoked during module initialization and from the
workqueue, before an alert is sent. This means that it is possible to
receive an alert with stale data, if we stopped tracing when the
hysteresis timer ('data->send_timer') was pending.

Instead of invoking the function during module initialization, invoke it
just before we start tracing and ensure we get a fresh skb.

This also allows us to remove the calls to initialize the timer and the
work item from the module initialization path, since both could have
been triggered by the error paths of reset_per_cpu_data().

The timer and work item are currently initialized once during module
init, but subsequent patches will need to associate different functions
with the work item, based on the configured alert mode.

Allow subsequent patches to make that change by initializing and
de-initializing these objects during tracing enable and disable.

This also guarantees that once the request to disable tracing returns,
no more netlink notifications will be generated.

Subsequent patches will need to enable / disable tracing based on the
configured alerting mode.

Reduce the nesting level and prepare for the introduction of this
functionality by splitting the tracing enable / disable operations into
two different functions.

Networking driver debugfs cleanups

There is no need to test the result of any debugfs call anymore.  The
debugfs core warns the user if something fails, and the return value of
a debugfs call can always be fed back into another debugfs call with no
problems.

Also, debugfs is for debugging, so if there are problems with debugfs
(i.e. the system is out of memory) the rest of the kernel should not
change behavior, so testing for debugfs calls is pointless and not the
goal of debugfs at all.

This series cleans up a lot of networking drivers and some wimax code
that was calling debugfs and trying to do something with the return
value that it didn't need to.  Removing this logic makes the code
smaller, easier to understand, and use less run-time memory in some
cases, all good things.

The series is against net-next, and have no dependancies between any of
them if they want to go through any random tree/order.  Or, if wanted,
I can take them through my driver-core tree where other debugfs cleanups
are being slowly fed during major merge windows.

v3: fix build warning in i2400m, I thought I had caught them all :(
    add acks from some reviewers

v2: fix up build warnings, it's as if I never even built these.  Ugh, so
    sorry for wasting people's time with the v1 series.  I need to stop
    relying on 0-day as it isn't working well anymore :(
