Merge branch 'bpf-indirect-jumps'

Anton Protopopov says:

====================
BPF indirect jumps

This patchset implements a new type of map, instruction set, and uses
it to build support for indirect branches in BPF (on x86). (The same
map will be later used to provide support for indirect calls and static
keys.) See [1], [2] for more context.

Short table of contents:

* Patches 1-6 implement the new map of type
BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_SET and corresponding selftests. This map can
be used to track the "original -> xlated -> jitted mapping" for
a given program.

* Patches 7-12 implement the support for indirect jumps on x86 and add libbpf
support for LLVM-compiled programs containing indirect jumps, and selftests.

The jump table support was merged to LLVM and now can be
enabled with -mcpu=v4, see [3]. The __BPF_FEATURE_GOTOX
macros can be used to check if the compiler supports the
feature or not.

See individual patches for more details on the implementation details.

RFC -> v1 (https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250816180631.952085-1-a.s.protopopov@gmail.com/):

* I've tried to address all the comments provided by Alexei and
Eduard in RFC. Will try to list the most important of them below.
* One big change: move from older LLVM version [5] to newer [4].
Now LLVM generates jump tables as symbols in the new special
section ".jumptables". Another part of this change is that
libbpf now doesn't try to link map load and goto *rX, as
1) this is absolutely not reliable 2) for some use cases this
is impossible (namely, when more than one jump table can be used
in the same gotox instruction).
* Added insn_successors() support (Alexei, Eduard). This includes
getting rid of the ugly bpf_insn_set_iter_xlated_offset()
interface (Eduard).
* Removed hack for the unreachable instruction, as new LLVM thank to
Eduard doesn't generate it.
* Set mem_size for direct map access properly instead of hacking.
Remove off>0 check. (Alexei)
* Do not allocate new memory for min_index/max_index (Alexei, Eduard)
* Information required during check_cfg is now cached to be reused
later (Alexei + general logic for supporting multiple JT per jump)
* Properly compare registers in regsafe (Alexei, Eduard)
* Remove support for JMP32 (Eduard)
* Better checks in adjust_ptr_min_max_vals (Eduard)
* More selftests were added (but still there's room for more) which
directly use gotox (Alexei)
* More checks and verbose messages added
* "unique pointers" are no more in the map
