libbpf: BTF dumper support for typed data
Add a BTF dumper for typed data, so that the user can dump a typed version of the data provided. The API is int btf_dump__dump_type_data(struct btf_dump *d, __u32 id, void *data, size_t data_sz, const struct btf_dump_type_data_opts *opts); ...where the id is the BTF id of the data pointed to by the "void *" argument; for example the BTF id of "struct sk_buff" for a "struct skb *" data pointer. Options supported are - a starting indent level (indent_lvl) - a user-specified indent string which will be printed once per indent level; if NULL, tab is chosen but any string <= 32 chars can be provided. - a set of boolean options to control dump display, similar to those used for BPF helper bpf_snprintf_btf(). Options are - compact : omit newlines and other indentation - skip_names: omit member names - emit_zeroes: show zero-value members Default output format is identical to that dumped by bpf_snprintf_btf(), for example a "struct sk_buff" representation would look like this: struct sk_buff){ (union){ (struct){ .next = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff, .prev = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff, (union){ .dev = (struct net_device *)0xffffffffffffffff, .dev_scratch = (long unsigned int)18446744073709551615, }, }, ... If the data structure is larger than the *data_sz* number of bytes that are available in *data*, as much of the data as possible will be dumped and -E2BIG will be returned. This is useful as tracers will sometimes not be able to capture all of the data associated with a type; for example a "struct task_struct" is ~16k. Being able to specify that only a subset is available is important for such cases. On success, the amount of data dumped is returned.
