  This patch adds kfuncs bpf_iter_task_{new,next,destroy} which allow
creation and manipulation of struct bpf_iter_task in open-coded iterator
style. BPF programs can use these kfuncs or through bpf_for_each macro to
iterate all processes in the system.

The API design keep consistent with SEC("iter/task"). bpf_iter_task_new()
accepts a specific task and iterating type which allows:
1. iterating all process in the system

2. iterating all threads in the system

3. iterating all threads of a specific task
Here we also resuse enum bpf_iter_task_type and rename BPF_TASK_ITER_TID
to BPF_TASK_ITER_THREAD, rename BPF_TASK_ITER_TGID to BPF_TASK_ITER_PROC.

The newly-added struct bpf_iter_task has a name collision with a selftest
for the seq_file task iter's bpf skel, so the selftests/bpf/progs file is
renamed in order to avoid the collision.

this should be __u64 __opaque[3], because struct takes full 24 bytes

nit: type -> flags, so we can add a bit more stuff, if necessary

empty line after variable declarations

I can't say I completely follow the logic (e.g., for
BPF_TASK_ITER_PROC, why do we do next_task() on first next() call)?
Can you elabore the expected behavior for various combinations of
types and starting task argument?

please split out selftests changes from kernel-side changes. We only
combine them if kernel changes break selftests, preventing bisection.

Thanks for the review.

The expected behavior of current implementation is:

BPF_TASK_ITER_PROC:

init_task->first_process->second_process->...->last_process->init_task

We would exit before visiting init_task again.

BPF_TASK_ITER_THREAD:

group_task->first_thread->second_thread->...->last_thread->group_task

We would exit before visiting group_task again.

BPF_TASK_ITER_ALL:

init_task -> first_process -> second_process -> ...
                 |                    |
		-> first_thread..    |
				     -> first_thread

Actually, every next() call, we would return the "pos" which was 
prepared by previous next() call, and use next_task()/next_thread() to 
update kit->pos. Once we meet the exit condition (next_task() return 
init_task or next_thread() return group_task), we would update kit->pos 
to NULL. In this way, when next() is called again, we will terminate the 
iteration.

Here "kit->pos = NULL;" means we would return the last valid "pos" and 
will return NULL in next call to exit from the iteration.

Am I miss something important?

Thanks.

ah, ok, so in this case it's more like BPF_TASK_ITER_ALL_PROCS, i.e.,
we iterate all processes in the system. Input `task` that we provide
is ignored/meaningless, right? Maybe we should express it as
ALL_PROCS?

And this one is iterating threads of a process specified by given
`task`, right?   This is where my confusion comes from. ITER_PROC and
ITER_THREAD, by their name, seems to be very similar, but in reality
ITER_PROC is more like ITER_ALL (except process vs thread iteration),
while ITER_THREAD is parameterized by input `task`.

I'm not sure what's the least confusing way to name and organize
everything, but I think it's quite confusing right now, unfortunately.
I wonder if you or someone else have a better suggestion on making
this more straightforward?

Ok, and this one is "all threads in the system". So
BPF_TASK_ITER_ALL_THREADS would describe it more precisely, right?

No, it's my bad. I did check, but somehow concluded that you are
returning kit->pos, but you are returning locally cached previous
value of kit->pos. All good here, I think.

Maybe here we can introduce new enums and not reuse or rename 
BPF_TASK_ITER_TID/BPF_TASK_ITER_TGID?

{
BPF_TASK_ITER_ALL_PROC,
BPF_TASK_ITER_ALL_THREAD,
BPF_TASK_ITER_THREAD
}

BPF_TASK_ITER_TID/BPF_TASK_ITER_TGID are inner flags. Looking at the
example usage of SEC("iter/task"), unlike 
BPF_CGROUP_ITER_DESCENDANTS_PRE/BPF_CGROUP_ITER_DESCENDANTS_POST, we 
actually don't use BPF_TASK_ITER_TID/BPF_TASK_ITER_TGID directly. When 
using SEC("iter/task"), we just set pid/tid for struct 
bpf_iter_link_info. Exposing new enums to users for open coded 
task_iters will not confuse users.

Thanks.
