When bpf subprograms are in use, the main program is not jit'd after the
subprograms because jit_subprogs sets a value for prog->bpf_func upon
success.  Subsequent calls to the JIT are bypassed when this value is
non-NULL.  This leads to a situation where the main program and its
func[0] counterpart are both in the bpf kallsyms tree, but only func[0]
has an extable.  Extables are only created during JIT.  Now there are
two nearly identical program ksym entries in the tree, but only one has
an extable.  Depending upon how the entries are placed, there's a chance
that a fault will call search_extable on the aux with the NULL entry.

Since jit_subprogs already copies state from func[0] to the main
program, include the extable pointer in this state duplication.  The
alternative is to skip adding the main program to the bpf_kallsyms
table, but that would mean adding a check for subprograms into the
middle of bpf_prog_load.

I think having two early identical program ksym entries is bad.
When people 'cat /proc/kallsyms | grep <their program name>',
they will find two programs with identical kernel address but different
hash value. This is just very confusing. I think removing the
duplicate in kallsyms is better from user's perspective.

adding a check to bpf_prog_load() isn't great. that's true, but...

Why not to do this hunk and what I suggested earlier: start from func=1 ?
That will address double ksym insertion that Yonghong mentioned.

Thanks for all the feedback.

In terms of resolving this confusion my inclination is to use the main
program. That way users see in kallsyms the same tag that is reported by
bpftool.  On the other hand, the tag in kallsyms won't match the sha1 of
that actual chunk of code.  Is anything relying on the hash in the tag
and the digest of the code agreeing?

Sure thing.  Yonghong and you have convinced me.

I'll send out a v3 with all changes requested so far.
