Jesper Dangaard Brouer 6710e11269 bpf: introduce new bpf cpu map type BPF_MAP_TYPE_CPUMAP
The 'cpumap' is primarily used as a backend map for XDP BPF helper
call bpf_redirect_map() and XDP_REDIRECT action, like 'devmap'.

This patch implement the main part of the map.  It is not connected to
the XDP redirect system yet, and no SKB allocation are done yet.

The main concern in this patch is to ensure the datapath can run
without any locking.  This adds complexity to the setup and tear-down
procedure, which assumptions are extra carefully documented in the
code comments.

V2:
 - make sure array isn't larger than NR_CPUS
 - make sure CPUs added is a valid possible CPU

V3: fix nitpicks from Jakub Kicinski <kubakici@wp.pl>

V5:
 - Restrict map allocation to root / CAP_SYS_ADMIN
 - WARN_ON_ONCE if queue is not empty on tear-down
 - Return -EPERM on memlock limit instead of -ENOMEM
 - Error code in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() also handle ptr_ring_cleanup()
 - Moved cpu_map_enqueue() to next patch

V6: all notice by Daniel Borkmann
 - Fix err return code in cpu_map_alloc() introduced in V5
 - Move cpu_possible() check after max_entries boundary check
 - Forbid usage initially in check_map_func_compatibility()

V7:
 - Fix alloc error path spotted by Daniel Borkmann
 - Did stress test adding+removing CPUs from the map concurrently
 - Fixed refcnt issue on cpu_map_entry, kthread started too soon
 - Make sure packets are flushed during tear-down, involved use of
   rcu_barrier() and kthread_run only exit after queue is empty
 - Fix alloc error path in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() for ptr_ring

V8:
 - Nitpicking comments and gramma by Edward Cree
 - Fix missing semi-colon introduced in V7 due to rebasing
 - Move struct bpf_cpu_map_entry members cpu+map_id to tracepoint patch

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
