[PATCH bpf-next v1 0/4] 'bpf_fastcall' attribute in vmlinux.h and bpf_helper_defs.h

[Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com>]

The goal of this patch-set is to reflect attribute bpf_fastcall
for supported helpers and kfuncs in generated header files.
For helpers this requires a tweak for scripts/bpf_doc.py and an update
to uapi/linux/bpf.h doc-comment.
For kfuncs this requires:
- introduction of a new KF_FASTCALL flag;
- modification to pahole to read kfunc flags and generate
  DECL_TAG "bpf_fastcall" for marked kfuncs;
- modification to bpftool to scan for DECL_TAG "bpf_fastcall"
  presence.

In both cases the following helper macro is defined in the generated
header:

    #ifndef __bpf_fastcall
    #if __has_attribute(bpf_fastcall)
    #define __bpf_fastcall __attribute__((bpf_fastcall))
    #else
    #define __bpf_fastcall
    #endif
    #endif

And is used to mark appropriate function prototypes. More information
about bpf_fastcall attribute could be found in [1] and [2].

Modifications to pahole are submitted separately.

[1] LLVM source tree commit:
    64e464349bfc ("[BPF] introduce __attribute__((bpf_fastcall))")

[2] Linux kernel tree commit (note: feature was renamed from
    no_caller_saved_registers to bpf_fastcall after this commit):
    52839f31cece ("Merge branch 'no_caller_saved_registers-attribute-for-helper-calls'")

Eduard Zingerman (4):
  bpf: allow specifying bpf_fastcall attribute for BPF helpers
  bpf: __bpf_fastcall for bpf_get_smp_processor_id in uapi
  bpf: use KF_FASTCALL to mark kfuncs supporting fastcall contract
  bpftool:  __bpf_fastcall for kfuncs marked with special decl_tag
