This patch converts iproute2 to use libbpf for loading and attaching BPF programs when it is available, which is started by Toke's implementation[1]. With libbpf iproute2 could correctly process BTF information and support the new-style BTF-defined maps, while keeping compatibility with the old internal map definition syntax. The old iproute2 bpf code is kept and will be used if no suitable libbpf is available. When using libbpf, wrapper code in bpf_legacy.c ensures that iproute2 will still understand the old map definition format, including populating map-in-map and tail call maps before load. In bpf_libbpf.c, we init iproute2 ctx and elf info first to check the legacy bytes. When handling the legacy maps, for map-in-maps, we create them manually and re-use the fd as they are associated with id/inner_id. For pin maps, we only set the pin path and let libbp load to handle it. For tail calls, we find it first and update the element after prog load. Other maps/progs will be loaded by libbpf directly.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm
arpd needs to have the berkeleydb development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdbX.X-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines. Often this is in the db-devel package.
2. make
The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
PAGESIZE=a4 , ie: a4 , letter ... (string)
PAGESPERPAGE=2 , ie: 1 , 2 ... (numeric)
and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
are in your path.
4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
if you have special requirements and need to point at different
kernel include files.
