====================
Following patches address build issues after recent move to libbpf.
For out-of-tree builds we would see the following error:
gcc: error: samples/bpf/../../tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a: No such file or directory
libbpf build system is now always invoked explicitly rather than
relying on building single objects most of the time. We need to
resolve the friction between Kbuild and tools/ build system.
Mini-library called libbpf.h in samples is renamed to bpf_insn.h,
using linux/filter.h seems not completely trivial since some samples
get upset when order on include search path in changed. We do have
to rename libbpf.h, however, because otherwise it's hard to reliably

Improve the JIT to emit 64 and 32 bit immediates, the current
algorithm is not optimal and we often emit more instructions
than actually needed. arm64 has movz, movn, movk variants but
for the current 64 bit immediates we only use movz with a
series of movk when needed.
For example loading ffffffffffffabab emits the following 4
instructions in the JIT today:
* movz: abab, shift: 0, result: 000000000000abab
* movk: ffff, shift: 16, result: 00000000ffffabab
* movk: ffff, shift: 32, result: 0000ffffffffabab
* movk: ffff, shift: 48, result: ffffffffffffabab
Whereas after the patch the same load only needs a single
instruction:
* movn: 5454, shift: 0, result: ffffffffffffabab
Another example where two extra instructions can be saved:
* movz: abab, shift: 0, result: 000000000000abab
* movk: 1f2f, shift: 16, result: 000000001f2fabab
* movk: ffff, shift: 32, result: 0000ffff1f2fabab
* movk: ffff, shift: 48, result: ffffffff1f2fabab
After the patch:
* movn: e0d0, shift: 16, result: ffffffff1f2fffff
* movk: abab, shift: 0, result: ffffffff1f2fabab
Another example with movz, before:
* movz: 0000, shift: 0, result: 0000000000000000
* movk: fea0, shift: 32, result: 0000fea000000000
After:
* movz: fea0, shift: 32, result: 0000fea000000000
Moreover, reuse emit_a64_mov_i() for 32 bit immediates that
are loaded via emit_a64_mov_i64() which is a similar optimization
as done in 6fe8b9c1f4 ("bpf, x64: save several bytes by using
mov over movabsq when possible"). On arm64, the latter allows to
use a single instruction with movn due to zero extension where
otherwise two would be needed. And last but not least add a
missing optimization in emit_a64_mov_i() where movn is used but
the subsequent movk not needed. With some of the Cilium programs
in use, this shrinks the needed instructions by about three
percent. Tested on Cavium ThunderX CN8890.

one irq_work per cpu is allowed. If the irq_work is in-use, we
fallback to only report ips.

Provide a helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookup in the kernel
tables from an XDP program. The helper provides a fastpath for forwarding
packets. If the packet is a local delivery or for any reason is not a
simple lookup and forward, the packet is expected to continue up the stack
for full processing.
The response from a FIB and neighbor lookup is either the egress index
with the bpf_fib_lookup struct filled in with dmac and gateway or
0 meaning the packet should continue up the stack. In time we can
revisit this to return the FIB lookup result errno if it is one of the
special RTN_'s such as RTN_BLACKHOLE (-EINVAL) so that the XDP
programs can do an early drop if desired.
Patches 1-6 do some more refactoring to IPv6 with the end goal of
extracting a FIB lookup function that aligns with fib_lookup for IPv4,
basically returning a fib6_info without creating a dst based entry.
Patch 7 adds lookup functions to the ipv6 stub. These are needed since
bpf is built into the kernel and ipv6 may not be built or loaded.
Patch 8 adds the bpf helper and 9 adds a sample program.

Provide a helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookup in the kernel
tables from an XDP program. The helper provides a fastpath for forwarding
packets. If the packet is a local delivery or for any reason is not a
simple lookup and forward, the packet continues up the stack.
If it is to be forwarded, the forwarding can be done directly if the
neighbor is already known. If the neighbor does not exist, the first
few packets go up the stack for neighbor resolution. Once resolved, the
xdp program provides the fast path.
On successful lookup the nexthop dmac, current device smac and egress
device index are returned.
The API supports IPv4, IPv6 and MPLS protocols, but only IPv4 and IPv6
are implemented in this patch. The API includes layer 4 parameters if
the XDP program chooses to do deep packet inspection to allow compare
against ACLs implemented as FIB rules.
Header rewrite is left to the XDP program.
The lookup takes 2 flags:
- BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT to do a lookup that bypasses FIB rules and goes
straight to the table associated with the device (expert setting for
those looking to maximize throughput)
- BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT to do a lookup from the egress perspective.
Default is an ingress lookup.

to 60% faster than any of the dst based lookup methods (without custom
rules) and 25% faster with custom rules (e.g., l3mdev rule).
Since the lookup function has a completely different signature,
fib6_rule_action is split into 2 paths: the existing one is
renamed __fib6_rule_action and a new one for the fib6_info path
is added. fib6_rule_action decides which to call based on the

with the datapath we can let the offloaded BPF select the RX queue.
We just need a way to tell the datapath that queue selection has already
been done and it shouldn't overwrite it. Define a bit to tell datapath
BPF already selected a queue (QSEL_SET), if the selected queue is not
enabled (>= number of enabled queues) datapath will perform normal RSS.
BPF queue selection on the NIC can be used to replace standard
