[PATCH v2 0/2] selftests/bpf: Use local types for kfunc declarations

[Gregory Bell]

The xdp_flowtable and test_tunnel_kern selftests were previously
rewritten to compile with CONFIG_NF_FLOW_TABLE=m and CONFIG_NET_FOU=m.
While the compilation issues were resolved, the tests fail at
runtime. In test_tunnel_kern.c, struct bpf_fou_encap___local is
defined with the correct fields but the kfunc declarations still
reference the forward-declared struct bpf_fou_encap. Similarly,
xdp_flowtable.c uses a forward-declared struct flow_offload_tuple_rhash
as the return type for bpf_xdp_flow_lookup(). Clang emits these forward
declarations as BTF FWD types, which fail to resolve against the
module-defined STRUCT types at run time:

libbpf: extern (func ksym) 'bpf_xdp_flow_lookup': func_proto [51] incompatible with nf_flow_table [128640]
libbpf: extern (func ksym) 'bpf_skb_get_fou_encap': func_proto [79] incompatible with fou [135045]

This patch updates both selftests to use ___local type suffixes
for kernel struct type, replacing the forward declarations.

struct flow_offload_tuple_rhash___local is defined without fields
because the test only uses the returned pointer for a null check.
This avoids needing to locally define its nested types,
struct rhash_head and struct flow_offload_tuple.

I understand that fixing selftests for specific config options is
generally not a priority, but since these tests were already
rewritten to support these configs, they should work correctly
with them.

- Add BPF_NO_KFUNC_PROTOTYPES macro to test_tunnel_kern.c so the test compiles 
  when CONFIG_NET_FOU=y. Without it the function prototypes conflict with vmlinux.h

[PATCH v2 1/2] selftests/bpf: Use local type for flow_offload_tuple_rhash in xdp_flowtable

[Gregory Bell]

Define flow_offload_tuple_rhash___local and use it in place of the
forward-declared kernel type for the bpf_xdp_flow_lookup kfunc return
type and tuplehash variable. This is consistent with how
bpf_flowtable_opts___local is already handled in the same file and
avoids relying on a forward declaration of the struct.

[PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/bpf: Use local type for bpf_fou_encap in test_tunnel_kern

[Gregory Bell]

Replace the forward-declared struct bpf_fou_encap with the existing
bpf_fou_encap___local type in the bpf_skb_set_fou_encap and
bpf_skb_get_fou_encap declarations. This removes the need for
the forward declaration and the explicit casts at each call.

Should this Fixes tag reference c77e572d3a8c instead? That commit
originally introduced the forward declaration of flow_offload_tuple_rhash
that this patch is now fixing. Commit eeb23b54e447 partially addressed
the same issue by fixing flow_ports but left flow_offload_tuple_rhash
unfixed.
