bpftool: Update doc (use susbtitutions) and test_bpftool_synctypes.py test_bpftool_synctypes.py helps detecting inconsistencies in bpftool between the different list of types and options scattered in the sources, the documentation, and the bash completion. For options that apply to all bpftool commands, the script had a hardcoded list of values, and would use them to check whether the man pages are up-to-date. When writing the script, it felt acceptable to have this list in order to avoid to open and parse bpftool's main.h every time, and because the list of global options in bpftool doesn't change so often. However, this is prone to omissions, and we recently added a new -l|--legacy option which was described in common_options.rst, but not listed in the options summary of each manual page. The script did not complain, because it keeps comparing the hardcoded list to the (now) outdated list in the header file. To address the issue, this commit brings the following changes: - Options that are common to all bpftool commands (--json, --pretty, and --debug) are moved to a dedicated file, and used in the definition of a RST substitution. This substitution is used in the sources of all the man pages. - This list of common options is updated, with the addition of the new -l|--legacy option. - The script test_bpftool_synctypes.py is updated to compare: - Options specific to a command, found in C files, for the interactive help messages, with the same specific options from the relevant man page for that command. - Common options, checked just once: the list in main.h is compared with the new list in substitutions.rst.

bpftool: Add struct_ops support This patch adds struct_ops support to the bpftool. To recap a bit on the recent bpf_struct_ops feature on the kernel side: It currently supports "struct tcp_congestion_ops" to be implemented in bpf. At a high level, bpf_struct_ops is struct_ops map populated with a number of bpf progs. bpf_struct_ops currently supports the "struct tcp_congestion_ops". However, the bpf_struct_ops design is generic enough that other kernel struct ops can be supported in the future. Although struct_ops is map+progs at a high lever, there are differences in details. For example, 1) After registering a struct_ops, the struct_ops is held by the kernel subsystem (e.g. tcp-cc). Thus, there is no need to pin a struct_ops map or its progs in order to keep them around. 2) To iterate all struct_ops in a system, it iterates all maps in type BPF_MAP_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS. BPF_MAP_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS is the current usual filter. In the future, it may need to filter by other struct_ops specific properties. e.g. filter by tcp_congestion_ops or other kernel subsystem ops in the future. 3) struct_ops requires the running kernel having BTF info. That allows more flexibility in handling other kernel structs. e.g. it can always dump the latest bpf_map_info. 4) Also, "struct_ops" command is not intended to repeat all features already provided by "map" or "prog". For example, if there really is a need to pin the struct_ops map, the user can use the "map" cmd to do that. While the first attempt was to reuse parts from map/prog.c, it ended up not a lot to share. The only obvious item is the map_parse_fds() but that still requires modifications to accommodate struct_ops map specific filtering (for the immediate and the future needs). Together with the earlier mentioned differences, it is better to part away from map/prog.c. The initial set of subcmds are, register, unregister, show, and dump. For register, it registers all struct_ops maps that can be found in an obj file. Option can be added in the future to specify a particular struct_ops map. Also, the common bpf_tcp_cc is stateless (e.g. bpf_cubic.c and bpf_dctcp.c). The "reuse map" feature is not implemented in this patch and it can be considered later also. For other subcmds, please see the man doc for details.
