Alexei Starovoitov d71fa5c976 bpf: Add kernel module with user mode driver that populates bpffs.
Add kernel module with user mode driver that populates bpffs with
BPF iterators.

$ mount bpffs /my/bpffs/ -t bpf
$ ls -la /my/bpffs/
total 4
drwxrwxrwt  2 root root    0 Jul  2 00:27 .
drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4096 Jul  2 00:09 ..
-rw-------  1 root root    0 Jul  2 00:27 maps.debug
-rw-------  1 root root    0 Jul  2 00:27 progs.debug

The user mode driver will load BPF Type Formats, create BPF maps, populate BPF
maps, load two BPF programs, attach them to BPF iterators, and finally send two
bpf_link IDs back to the kernel.
The kernel will pin two bpf_links into newly mounted bpffs instance under
names "progs.debug" and "maps.debug". These two files become human readable.

$ cat /my/bpffs/progs.debug
  id name            attached
  11 dump_bpf_map    bpf_iter_bpf_map
  12 dump_bpf_prog   bpf_iter_bpf_prog
  27 test_pkt_access
  32 test_main       test_pkt_access test_pkt_access
  33 test_subprog1   test_pkt_access_subprog1 test_pkt_access
  34 test_subprog2   test_pkt_access_subprog2 test_pkt_access
  35 test_subprog3   test_pkt_access_subprog3 test_pkt_access
  36 new_get_skb_len get_skb_len test_pkt_access
  37 new_get_skb_ifindex get_skb_ifindex test_pkt_access
  38 new_get_constant get_constant test_pkt_access

The BPF program dump_bpf_prog() in iterators.bpf.c is printing this data about
all BPF programs currently loaded in the system. This information is unstable
and will change from kernel to kernel as ".debug" suffix conveys.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
