selftests/bpf: Add parallelism to test_progs
This patch adds "-j" mode to test_progs, executing tests in multiple process. "-j" mode is optional, and works with all existing test selection mechanism, as well as "-v", "-l" etc. In "-j" mode, main process use UDS/DGRAM to communicate to each forked worker, commanding it to run tests and collect logs. After all tests are finished, a summary is printed. main process use multiple competing threads to dispatch work to worker, trying to keep them all busy. Example output: > ./test_progs -n 15-20 -j [ 8.584709] bpf_testmod: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel. Launching 2 workers. [0]: Running test 15. [1]: Running test 16. [1]: Running test 17. [1]: Running test 18. [1]: Running test 19. [1]: Running test 20. [1]: worker exit. [0]: worker exit. #15 btf_dump:OK #16 btf_endian:OK #17 btf_map_in_map:OK #18 btf_module:OK #19 btf_skc_cls_ingress:OK #20 btf_split:OK Summary: 6/20 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED Know issue: Some tests fail when running concurrently, later patch will either fix the test or pin them to worker 0.
