The virtio-net code for eBPF RSS is still ignoring errors when
failing to load the eBPF RSS program passed in by the mgmt app
via pre-opened FDs.
This series re-factors the eBPF common code so that it actually
reports using "Error" objects. Then it makes virtio-net treat
a failure to load pre-opened FDs as a fatal problem. When doing
speculative opening of eBPF FDs, QEMU merely prints a warning,
and allows the software fallback to continue.
Trace event coverage is significantly expanded to make this all
much more debuggable too.
Changed in v3:
- Fixed bpf stubs for new Error **errp argument
- Added fix for pre-existing flaw with libxdp build logic
when bpf is disabled
Changed in v2:
- Split 'ebpf_error' probe into multiple probes
