RTE_BPF_ARG_PTR_STACK is used as internal program
arg type. Rename to RTE_BPF_ARG_RESERVED to
avoid exposing internal program type.

Putting a '__attribute__((deprecated))' in the middle of a function
prototype does not result in the expected result with gcc (while clang
is fine with this syntax).
$ cat deprecated.c
void * __attribute__((deprecated)) incorrect() { return 0; }
__attribute__((deprecated)) void *correct(void) { return 0; }
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { incorrect(); correct(); return 0; }
$ gcc -o deprecated.o -c deprecated.c
deprecated.c: In function ‘main’:
deprecated.c:3:1: warning: ‘correct’ is deprecated (declared at
deprecated.c:2) [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { incorrect(); correct(); return 0; }
^
Move the tag on a separate line and make it the first thing of function
prototypes.
This is not perfect but we will trust reviewers to catch the other not
so easy to detect patterns.
sed -i \
-e '/^\([^#].*\)\?__rte_experimental */{' \
-e 's//\1/; s/ *$//; i\' \
-e __rte_experimental \
-e '/^$/d}' \
$(git grep -l __rte_experimental -- '*.h')
Special mention for rte_mbuf_data_addr_default():
There is either a bug or a (not yet understood) issue with gcc.
gcc won't drop this inline when unused and rte_mbuf_data_addr_default()
calls rte_mbuf_buf_addr() which itself is experimental.
This results in a build warning when not accepting experimental apis
from sources just including rte_mbuf.h.
For this specific case, we hide the call to rte_mbuf_buf_addr() under
the ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_API flag.

clang 6.0 and onwards, for the external function call generates
BPF_PSEUDO_CALL instruction:
call pseudo +-off -> call another bpf function.
More details about that change: https://lwn.net/Articles/741773/
DPDK BPF implementation right now doesn't support multiple BPF
functions per module.
To overcome that problem, and preserve existing functionality
(ability to call allowed by user external functions),
bpf_elf_load() clears EBPF_PSEUDO_CALL value.
For details how to reproduce the issue:

Extend struct rte_bpf_xsym with new fields to provide information about:
- for variables - type and size
- for functions - number of arguments and type/size of each argument
and return value
Such information would allow validate code to perform
more extensive checking on input BPF program and catch
misbehaving BPF code.
That change would cause ABI/API breakage for librte_bpf.

- add EXPERIMENTAL tag for the section in MAINTAINERS.
- add EXPERIMENTAL tag to BPF public API files.
- add attribute __rte_experimental to BPF public API declarations.

Introduce rte_bpf_elf_load() function to provide ability to
load eBPF program from ELF object file.
It also adds dependency on libelf.

librte_bpf provides a framework to load and execute eBPF bytecode
inside user-space dpdk based applications.
It supports basic set of features from eBPF spec
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/filter.txt).
Not currently supported features:
- JIT
- cBPF
- tail-pointer call
- eBPF MAP
- skb
- function calls for 32-bit apps
- mbuf pointer as input parameter for 32-bit apps
