Some Linux distributions (at least Fedora and RHEL) do not provide
libluajit as an archive and instead only as a DSO.  Using the DSO
does not have any negative impact but the cmake script does not
check for the DSO files and instead fails to find luajit.

This simple change causes cmake to find the file as named in the
above distributions.  Maybe more change or a generalized method are
needed in future.  The prefered way to detect the DSO for Fedora/RHEL
would be to use pkgconfig but I don't propose to use it at this time.

cc: Work around verifier error when reading USDT probe arguments

explicit the type of the nlattr
Signed-off-by: Arthur Gautier <baloo@gandi.net>

The code generated by the USDT helpers for reading probe arguments
occasionally caused a verifier error due to a construct similar to
the following:

```
switch (ctx->ip) {
case 0xaaaa: *dest = ctx->cx; break;
case 0xbbbb: *dest = ctx->dx; break;
}
```

This would generate an instruction sequence that attempts to access
ctx through an offset that is not statically known, which confuses
the verifier. This was reported in #751, #829, and #1133, and likely
seen by others as well.

The workaround, suggested by @yonghong-song, is to force memory
writes by using the volatile modifier, which precludes this specific
optimization.

Resolves #751, #829, #1133.

docs: update features list

Update of BPF features list, following the release of kernel 4.11.
New items include:

- Sparc eBPF JIT
- ixgbe support for XDP
- eBPF benchmarking facility
- new helpers `get_socket_*()`

Small improvements to symboling availiability

Currently we check if `ProcSyms` needs refresh for every symboling call.
However if the `ProcSyms` was loaded, but the Process terminated later,
we will see it as a "need refresh" and effectively clear the symbol
table and not able to resovle anything anymore.

This commit changes so that we only refresh when the PID still exists
(but differnt from what loaded).

Currently we think the Module's symbol table is not loaed as long as its
empty. But some times we were just not able to read the symbols from the
binary / perf map, or didn't get symbol from the read. This commit makes
so that we don't end up trying to do a read on each lookup.

frontend/b: fixes for LLVM 4.0 API change

Upstream LLVM added a new parameter to the AllocaInst constructor, which

[RFC]: Extend table API with string support 

This commit exposes functions to convert between key and value from/to

With local LLVM (4.0ish), inline strings in this test case would
segfault. Fix the crash by constructing explicitly on the stack.

Possibly due to local LLVM differences, this change was needed for
sslsniff code to pass the verifier.
Signed-off-by: Brenden Blanco <bblanco@gmail.com>

On my system, the manually unrolled stack walker fails the verifier, due
to what seems to me like an incorrect return statement. Setting bp = 0
has no effect, seems that the intent was to return 0 instead.

Not sure why others haven't hit this, but the fix contained here seems
reasonable.

Disable non-static function calls

Compiled BPF programs must consist of a single contiguous code block,
meaning trying to call other function entry points (besides the
kernel-defined helpers) is not possible. The bcc frontend didn't
explicitly prohibit this, even though the program would fail to
compile/load. Add an explicit check and error message.

Minor sorting of the yaml tool list and sync it to the latest
updates in tools
Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Printing the BPF program after loading it means that if there is a
load error, the program isn't printed, which sort of defeats the
purpose of the whole thing.
