Joanne Koong 8845b4681b bpf: Add alignment padding for "map_extra" + consolidate holes
This patch makes 2 changes regarding alignment padding
for the "map_extra" field.

1) In the kernel header, "map_extra" and "btf_value_type_id"
are rearranged to consolidate the hole.

Before:
struct bpf_map {
	...
        u32		max_entries;	/*    36     4	*/
        u32		map_flags;	/*    40     4	*/

        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

        u64		map_extra;	/*    48     8	*/
        int		spin_lock_off;	/*    56     4	*/
        int		timer_off;	/*    60     4	*/
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
        u32		id;		/*    64     4	*/
        int		numa_node;	/*    68     4	*/
	...
        bool		frozen;		/*   117     1	*/

        /* XXX 10 bytes hole, try to pack */

        /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
	...
        struct work_struct	work;	/*   144    72	*/

        /* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) was 24 bytes ago --- */
	struct mutex	freeze_mutex;	/*   216   144 	*/

        /* --- cacheline 5 boundary (320 bytes) was 40 bytes ago --- */
        u64		writecnt; 	/*   360     8	*/

    /* size: 384, cachelines: 6, members: 26 */
    /* sum members: 354, holes: 2, sum holes: 14 */
    /* padding: 16 */
    /* forced alignments: 2, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 10 */

} __attribute__((__aligned__(64)));

After:
struct bpf_map {
	...
        u32		max_entries;	/*    36     4	*/
        u64		map_extra;	/*    40     8 	*/
        u32		map_flags;	/*    48     4	*/
        int		spin_lock_off;	/*    52     4	*/
        int		timer_off;	/*    56     4	*/
        u32		id;		/*    60     4	*/

        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
        int		numa_node;	/*    64     4	*/
	...
	bool		frozen		/*   113     1  */

        /* XXX 14 bytes hole, try to pack */

        /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
	...
        struct work_struct	work;	/*   144    72	*/

        /* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) was 24 bytes ago --- */
        struct mutex	freeze_mutex;	/*   216   144	*/

        /* --- cacheline 5 boundary (320 bytes) was 40 bytes ago --- */
        u64		writecnt;       /*   360     8	*/

    /* size: 384, cachelines: 6, members: 26 */
    /* sum members: 354, holes: 1, sum holes: 14 */
    /* padding: 16 */
    /* forced alignments: 2, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 14 */

} __attribute__((__aligned__(64)));

2) Add alignment padding to the bpf_map_info struct

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
