Admittedly the devlink.yaml spec is fairly limitted,
it only covers basic device get and info-get ops.
That's sufficient to be useful (monitoring FW versions
in the fleet). Plus it gives us a chance to exercise
deep nesting and directional messaging in YNL.

Renegerate code after dropping forward declarations for policies.

Now that all nested types have structs and are sorted topologically
there should be no need to generate forward declarations for policies.

So far we had only created structures for nested types nested
directly in messages (second level of attrs so to speak).
Walk types in depth to support deeper nesting.

We only render parse and netlink generation helpers as needed,
to avoid generating dead code. Propagate the information from
first- and second-layer attribute sets onto all children.
Otherwise devlink won't work, it has a lot more levels of nesting.

We need to sort the structures to avoid the need for forward

In preparation for supporting families which use different msg
ids to and from the kernel - make sure the ids in op strmap
are correct. The map is expected to be used mostly for notifications,
don't generate a separate map for the "to kernel" direction.

Adding missing prototypes for several kfuncs that are used by
test_verifier tests. We don't really need kfunc prototypes for
these tests, but adding them to silence 'make W=1' build and
to have all test kfuncs declarations in bpf_testmod_kfunc.h.
Also moving __diag_pop for -Wmissing-prototypes to cover also
bpf_testmod_test_write and bpf_testmod_test_read and adding
bpf_fentry_shadow_test in there as well. All of them need to
be exported, but there's no need for declarations.

When parsing multi-attr we count the objects and then allocate
an array to hold the parsed objects. If an attr space has multiple
multi-attr objects, however, if parsing the first array fails
we'll leave the object count for the second even tho the second
array was never allocated.
This may cause crashes when freeing objects on error.
Count attributes to a variable on the stack and only set the count
in the object once the memory was allocated.

Objtool doesn't use DWARF at all, and the DWARF sections' data take up a
lot of memory. Skip reading them.
Note this only skips the DWARF base sections, not the rela sections.
The relas are needed because their symbol references may need to be
reindexed if any local symbols get added by elf_create_symbol().
Also note the DWARF data will eventually be read by libelf anyway, when
writing the object file. But that's fine, the goal here is to reduce
*peak* memory usage, and the previous patch (which freed insn memory)
gave some breathing room. So the allocation gets shifted to a later
time, resulting in lower peak memory usage.

The GElf_Rel[a] structs have more similarities than differences. It's
safe to hard-code the assumptions about their shared fields as they will
never change. Consolidate their handling where possible, getting rid of
duplicated code.
Also, at least for now we only ever create rela sections, so simplify
the relocation creation code to be rela-only.

- The term "reloc" is overloaded to mean both "an instance of struct
reloc" and "a reloc section". Change the latter to "rsec".
- For variable names, use "sec" for regular sections and "rsec" for rela
sections to prevent them getting mixed up.
- For struct reloc variables, use "reloc" instead of "rel" everywhere
for consistency.

If the code specified UNWIND_HINT_UNDEFINED, skip the "undefined stack
state" warning due to a stack operation. Just ignore the stack op and
continue to propagate the undefined state.

There are several places where warnings variables are not needed,
remove them and directly return 0.

This test covers the new Virtual PCM Test Driver, including the capturing,
playback and ioctl redefinition functionalities for both interleaved and
non-interleaved access modes. This test is also helpful as an usage example
of the 'pcmtest' driver.
We have a lot of different virtual media drivers, which can be used for
testing of the userspace applications and media subsystem middle layer.
However, all of them are aimed at testing the video functionality and
simulating the video devices. For audio devices we have only snd-dummy
module, which is good in simulating the correct behavior of an ALSA device.
I decided to write a tool, which would help to test the userspace ALSA
programs (and the PCM middle layer as well) under unusual circumstances
to figure out how they would behave. So I came up with this Virtual PCM
Test Driver.
This new Virtual PCM Test Driver has several features which can be useful
during the userspace ALSA applications testing/fuzzing, or testing/fuzzing
of the PCM middle layer. Not all of them can be implemented using the
existing virtual drivers (like dummy or loopback). Here is what can this
driver do:
- Simulate both capture and playback processes
- Generate random or pattern-based capture data
- Check the playback stream for containing the looped pattern
- Inject delays into the playback and capturing processes
- Inject errors during the PCM callbacks
Also, this driver can check the playback stream for containing the
predefined pattern, which is used in the corresponding selftest to check
the PCM middle layer data transferring functionality. Additionally, this
driver redefines the default RESET ioctl, and the selftest covers this PCM
API functionality as well.
The driver supports both interleaved and non-interleaved access modes, and
have separate pattern buffers for each channel. The driver supports up to
4 channels and up to 8 substreams.
