If users tried to have a structure decl/init code like below
struct test_t t = { .memeber1 = 45 };
It is very likely that compiler will generate a readonly section
to hold up the init values for variable t. Later load of t members,
e.g., t.member1 will result in a read from readonly section.
BPF program cannot handle relocation. This will force users to
write:
struct test_t t = {};
t.member1 = 45;
This is just inconvenient and unintuitive.
This patch addresses this issue by implementing BPF PreprocessISelDAG.
For any load from a global constant structure or an global array of
constant struct, it attempts to
translate it into a constant directly. The traversal of the
constant struct and other constant data structures are similar
to where the assembler emits read-only sections.
Four different unit test cases are also added to cover
different scenarios.
