bpf: libbpf: Refactor and bug fix on the bpf_func_info loading logic
This patch refactor and fix a bug in the libbpf's bpf_func_info loading logic. The bug fix and refactoring are targeting the same commit 2993e051 ("tools/bpf: add support to read .BTF.ext sections") which is in the bpf-next branch. 1) In bpf_load_program_xattr(), it should retry when errno == E2BIG regardless of log_buf and log_buf_sz. This patch fixes it. 2) btf_ext__reloc_init() and btf_ext__reloc() are essentially the same except btf_ext__reloc_init() always has insns_cnt == 0. Hence, btf_ext__reloc_init() is removed. btf_ext__reloc() is also renamed to btf_ext__reloc_func_info() to get ready for the line_info support in the next patch. 3) Consolidate func_info section logic from "btf_ext_parse_hdr()", "btf_ext_validate_func_info()" and "btf_ext__new()" to a new function "btf_ext_copy_func_info()" such that similar logic can be reused by the later libbpf's line_info patch. 4) The next line_info patch will store line_info_cnt instead of line_info_len in the bpf_program because the kernel is taking line_info_cnt also. It will save a few "len" to "cnt" conversions and will also save some function args. Hence, this patch also makes bpf_program to store func_info_cnt instead of func_info_len. 5) btf_ext depends on btf. e.g. the func_info's type_id in ".BTF.ext" is not useful when ".BTF" is absent. This patch only init the obj->btf_ext pointer after it has successfully init the obj->btf pointer. This can avoid always checking "obj->btf && obj->btf_ext" together for accessing ".BTF.ext". Checking "obj->btf_ext" alone will do. 6) Move "struct btf_sec_func_info" from btf.h to btf.c. There is no external usage outside btf.c.
