bpf: Introduce BPF_MAP_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS
The patch introduces BPF_MAP_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS. The map value
is a kernel struct with its func ptr implemented in bpf prog.
This new map is the interface to register/unregister/introspect
a bpf implemented kernel struct.
The kernel struct is actually embedded inside another new struct
(or called the "value" struct in the code). For example,
"struct tcp_congestion_ops" is embbeded in:
struct bpf_struct_ops_tcp_congestion_ops {
refcount_t refcnt;
enum bpf_struct_ops_state state;
struct tcp_congestion_ops data; /* <-- kernel subsystem struct here */
}
The map value is "struct bpf_struct_ops_tcp_congestion_ops".
The "bpftool map dump" will then be able to show the
state ("inuse"/"tobefree") and the number of subsystem's refcnt (e.g.
number of tcp_sock in the tcp_congestion_ops case). This "value" struct
is created automatically by a macro. Having a separate "value" struct
will also make extending "struct bpf_struct_ops_XYZ" easier (e.g. adding
