      selftests/bpf: Fix btf_dump __int128 test failure with clang build kernel · 091037fb

      With clang build kernel (adding LLVM=1 to kernel and selftests/bpf build
      command line), I hit the following test failure:
      
        $ ./test_progs -t btf_dump
        ...
        btf_dump_data:PASS:ensure expected/actual match 0 nsec
        btf_dump_data:FAIL:find type id unexpected find type id: actual -2 < expected 0
        btf_dump_data:FAIL:find type id unexpected find type id: actual -2 < expected 0
        test_btf_dump_int_data:FAIL:dump __int128 unexpected error: -2 (errno 2)
        #15/9 btf_dump/btf_dump: int_data:FAIL
      
      Further analysis showed gcc build kernel has type "__int128" in dwarf/BTF
      and it doesn't exist in clang build kernel. Code searching for kernel code
      found the following:
        arch/s390/include/asm/types.h:  unsigned __int128 pair;
        crypto/ecc.c:   unsigned __int128 m = (unsigned __int128)left * right;
        include/linux/math64.h: return (u64)(((unsigned __int128)a * mul) >> shift);
        include/linux/math64.h: return (u64)(((unsigned __int128)a * mul) >> shift);
        lib/ubsan.h:typedef __int128 s_max;
        lib/ubsan.h:typedef unsigned __int128 u_max;
      
      In my case, CONFIG_UBSAN is not enabled. Even if we only have "unsigned __int128"
      in the code, somehow gcc still put "__int128" in dwarf while clang didn't.
      Hence current test works fine for gcc but not for clang.
      
      Enabling CONFIG_UBSAN is an option to provide __int128 type into dwarf
      reliably for both gcc and clang, but not everybody enables CONFIG_UBSAN
      in their kernel build. So the best choice is to use "unsigned __int128" type
      which is available in both clang and gcc build kernels. But clang and gcc
      dwarf encoded names for "unsigned __int128" are different:
      
        [$ ~] cat t.c
        unsigned __int128 a;
        [$ ~] gcc -g -c t.c && llvm-dwarfdump t.o | grep __int128
                        DW_AT_type      (0x00000031 "__int128 unsigned")
                        DW_AT_name      ("__int128 unsigned")
        [$ ~] clang -g -c t.c && llvm-dwarfdump t.o | grep __int128
                        DW_AT_type      (0x00000033 "unsigned __int128")
                        DW_AT_name      ("unsigned __int128")
      
      The test change in this patch tries to test type name before
      doing actual test.
