Add a bunch of getter for various aspects of BPF map. Some of these attribute (e.g., key_size, value_size, type, etc) are available right now in struct bpf_map_def, but this patch adds getter allowing to fetch them individually. bpf_map_def approach isn't very scalable, when ABI stability requirements are taken into account. It's much easier to extend libbpf and add support for new features, when each aspect of BPF map has separate getter/setter. Getters follow the common naming convention of not explicitly having "get" in its name: bpf_map__type() returns map type, bpf_map__key_size() returns key_size. Setters, though, explicitly have set in their name: bpf_map__set_type(), bpf_map__set_key_size(). This patch ensures we now have a getter and a setter for the following map attributes: - type; - max_entries; - map_flags; - numa_node; - key_size; - value_size; - ifindex. bpf_map__resize() enforces unnecessary restriction of max_entries > 0. It is unnecessary, because libbpf actually supports zero max_entries for some cases (e.g., for PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map) and treats it specially during map creation time. To allow setting max_entries=0, new bpf_map__set_max_entries() setter is added. bpf_map__resize()'s behavior is preserved for backwards compatibility reasons. Map ifindex getter is added as well. There is a setter already, but no corresponding getter. Fix this assymetry as well. bpf_map__set_ifindex() itself is converted from void function into error-returning one, similar to other setters. The only error returned right now is -EBUSY, if BPF map is already loaded and has corresponding FD. One lacking attribute with no ability to get/set or even specify it declaratively is numa_node. This patch fixes this gap and both adds programmatic getter/setter, as well as adds support for numa_node field in BTF-defined map. Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@xxxxxx>
