[ Upstream commit 137978f422516a128326df55c0ba23605f925e21 ]
Since BPF skeleton inception libbpf has been doing mmap()'ing of global data ARRAY maps in bpf_object__load_skeleton() API, which is used by code generated .skel.h files (i.e., by BPF skeletons only).
This is wrong because if BPF object is loaded through generic bpf_object__load() API, global data maps won't be re-mmap()'ed after load step, and memory pointers returned from bpf_map__initial_value() would be wrong and won't reflect the actual memory shared between BPF program and user space.
bpf_map__initial_value() return result is rarely used after load, so this went unnoticed for a really long time, until bpftrace project attempted to load BPF object through generic bpf_object__load() API and then used BPF subskeleton instantiated from such bpf_object. It turned out that .data/.rodata/.bss data updates through such subskeleton was "blackholed", all because libbpf wouldn't re-mmap() those maps during bpf_object__load() phase.
Long story short, this step should be done by libbpf regardless of BPF skeleton usage, right after BPF map is created in the kernel. This patch moves this functionality into bpf_object__populate_internal_map() to achieve this. And bpf_object__load_skeleton() is now simple and almost trivial, only propagating these mmap()'ed pointers into user-supplied skeleton structs.
We also do trivial adjustments to error reporting inside bpf_object__populate_internal_map() for consistency with the rest of libbpf's map-handling code.
