Commit 5a2798ab32ba ("bpf: Add BTF_ID_LIST/BTF_ID/BTF_ID_UNUSED macros") implemented a mechanism to compute btf_ids at kernel build time which can simplify kernel implementation and reduce runtime overhead by removing in-kernel btf_id calculation. This patch set tried to use this mechanism to compute btf_ids for bpf_skc_to_*() helpers and for btf_id_or_null ctx arguments specified during bpf iterator registration. Please see individual patch for details. Changelogs: v1 -> v2: - v1 ([1]) is only for bpf_skc_to_*() helpers. This version expanded it to cover ctx btf_id_or_null arguments - abandoned the change of "extern u32 name[]" to "static u32 name[]" for BPF_ID_LIST local "name" definition. gcc 9 incurred a compilation error.
