H A D.gitignorediff 74b5a5968fe8742205a86234bb99d493bcd5ecee Wed Oct 16 08:00:49 CEST 2019 Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@fb.com> selftests/bpf: Replace test_progs and test_maps w/ general rule

Define test runner generation meta-rule that codifies dependencies
between test runner, its tests, and its dependent BPF programs. Use that
for defining test_progs and test_maps test-runners. Also additionally define
2 flavors of test_progs:
- alu32, which builds BPF programs with 32-bit registers codegen;
- bpf_gcc, which build BPF programs using GCC, if it supports BPF target.

Overall, this is accomplished through $(eval)'ing a set of generic
rules, which defines Makefile targets dynamically at runtime. See
comments explaining the need for 2 $(evals), though.

For each test runner we have (test_maps and test_progs, currently), and,
optionally, their flavors, the logic of build process is modeled as
follows (using test_progs as an example):
- all BPF objects are in progs/:
- BPF object's .o file is built into output directory from
corresponding progs/.c file;
- all BPF objects in progs/*.c depend on all progs/*.h headers;
- all BPF objects depend on bpf_*.h helpers from libbpf (but not
libbpf archive). There is an extra rule to trigger bpf_helper_defs.h
(re-)build, if it's not present/outdated);
- build recipe for BPF object can be re-defined per test runner/flavor;
- test files are built from prog_tests/*.c:
- all such test file objects are built on individual file basis;
- currently, every single test file depends on all BPF object files;
this might be improved in follow up patches to do 1-to-1 dependency,
but allowing to customize this per each individual test;
- each test runner definition can specify a list of extra .c and .h
files to be built along test files and test runner binary; all such
headers are becoming automatic dependency of each test .c file;
- due to test files sometimes embedding (using .incbin assembly
directive) contents of some BPF objects at compilation time, which are
expected to be in CWD of compiler, compilation for test file object does
cd into test runner's output directory; to support this mode all the
include paths are turned into absolute paths using $(abspath) make
function;
- prog_tests/test.h is automatically (re-)generated with an entry for
each .c file in prog_tests/;
- final test runner binary is linked together from test object files and
extra object files, linking together libbpf's archive as well;
- it's possible to specify extra "resource" files/targets, which will be
copied into test runner output directory, if it differes from
Makefile-wide $(OUTPUT). This is used to ensure btf_dump test cases and
urandom_read binary is put into a test runner's CWD for tests to find
them in runtime.

For flavored test runners, their output directory is a subdirectory of
common Makefile-wide $(OUTPUT) directory with flavor name used as
subdirectory name.

BPF objects targets might be reused between different test runners, so
extra checks are employed to not double-define them. Similarly, we have
redefinition guards for output directories and test headers.

test_verifier follows slightly different patterns and is simple enough
to not justify generalizing TEST_RUNNER_DEFINE/TEST_RUNNER_DEFINE_RULES
further to accomodate these differences. Instead, rules for
test_verifier are minimized and simplified, while preserving correctness
of dependencies.
