bpftool: btf: Support dumping a single type from file
Some projects, for example xdp-tools [0], prefer to check in a minimized
vmlinux.h rather than the complete file which can get rather large.
However, when you try to add a minimized version of a complex struct (eg
struct xfrm_state), things can get quite complex if you're trying to
manually untangle and deduplicate the dependencies.
This commit teaches bpftool to do a minimized dump of a single type by
providing an optional root_id argument.
Example usage:
$ ./bpftool btf dump file ~/dev/linux/vmlinux | rg "STRUCT 'xfrm_state'"
[12643] STRUCT 'xfrm_state' size=912 vlen=58
$ ./bpftool btf dump file ~/dev/linux/vmlinux root_id 12643 format c
#ifndef __VMLINUX_H__
#define __VMLINUX_H__
[..]
struct xfrm_type_offload;
struct xfrm_sec_ctx;
struct xfrm_state {
possible_net_t xs_net;
union {
struct hlist_node gclist;
struct hlist_node bydst;
};
union {
struct hlist_node dev_gclist;
struct hlist_node bysrc;
};
struct hlist_node byspi;

=== Changelog ===
Changes in v5:
* Update bash-completion to support repeating root_id
* Update man page to mention root_id NAND map key/value/kv/all
Changes in v4:
* Support multiple instances of root_id
Changes in v3:
* Make `root_id` a top level btf-dump argument rather than attached to `file`
* Update bash completion script
* Refactor root_type_ids checking to after btf handle creation
* Update help messages and fix existing man page inconsistency
Changes in v2:
* Add early error check for invalid BTF ID

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 reStructuredText 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.
