A new relocation RELO_LOCAL_FUNC is added to capture
local (static) function pointers loaded with ld_imm64
insns. Such ld_imm64 insns are marked with
BPF_PSEUDO_FUNC and will be passed to kernel so
kernel can replace them with proper actual jited
func addresses.

libbpf internally is using SUBPROG notation. I think "LOCAL" part is
confusing, so I'd drop it. How about just RELO_SUBPROG? We can
separately refactor these names to distinguish RELO_CALL from the new
one. It would be more clear if RELO_CALL was called RELO_SUBPROG_CALL,
and the new one either RELO_SUBPROG_ADDR or RELO_SUBPROG_REF (as in
subprog reference)

Yes, we can use RELO_SUBPROG_ADDR.

there is is_ldimm64() function for this check (just move it up here,
it's a single-liner)

I did not know it. Will use in the next revision.

just move this check below the next if that checks !is_ldimm64, no
need to do it here early.

Okay.

see above how RELO_CALL is handled: shdr_idx != 0 check is missing. We
also validate that sym->st_value is multiple of BPF_INSN_SZ.

Okay. Will add additional checking.

fallthrough into an empty break clause seems a bit weird... just break
and leave the same comment as below?

Yes, "break" seems cleaner.

nit: keep it on a single line, it still fits within 100 characters and
is easier to visually compare to RELO_CALL case.

Okay.

don't we have to adjust insn->imm for this case as well? Let's add
selftests to make sure this works.

This is for relo == NULL. I think my code (RELO_LOCAL_FUNC or RELO_SUBPROG_ADDR) won't hit this since there always relocations. That is why I didn't do anything here.
