[BPF] Fix linking issues in static map initializers (#91310)
When BPF object files are linked with bpftool, every symbol must be
accompanied by BTF info. Ensure that extern functions referenced by
global variable initializers are included in BTF.
The primary motivation is "static" initialization of PROG maps:
```c
extern int elsewhere(struct xdp_md *);
struct {
__uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY);
__uint(max_entries, 1);
__type(key, int);
__type(value, int);
__array(values, int (struct xdp_md *));
} prog_map SEC(".maps") = { .values = { elsewhere } };
```
BPF backend needs debug info to produce BTF. Debug info is not
normally generated for external variables and functions. Previously, it
was solved differently for variables (collecting variable declarations
in ExternalDeclarations vector) and functions (logic invoked during
codegen in CGExpr.cpp).
This patch generalises ExternalDefclarations to include both function
and variable declarations. This change ensures that function references
are not missed no matter the context. Previously external functions
referenced in constant expressions lacked debug info.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
