bpf: Support bpf tracing/iter programs for BPF_LINK_CREATE
Given a bpf program, the step to create an anonymous bpf iterator is:
- create a bpf_iter_link, which combines bpf program and the target.
In the future, there could be more information recorded in the link.
A link_fd will be returned to the user space.
- create an anonymous bpf iterator with the given link_fd.
The bpf_iter_link can be pinned to bpffs mount file system to
create a file based bpf iterator as well.
The benefit to use of bpf_iter_link:
- using bpf link simplifies design and implementation as bpf link
is used for other tracing bpf programs.
- for file based bpf iterator, bpf_iter_link provides a standard
way to replace underlying bpf programs.
- for both anonymous and free based iterators, bpf link query
capability can be leveraged.
The patch added support of tracing/iter programs for BPF_LINK_CREATE.
A new link type BPF_LINK_TYPE_ITER is added to facilitate link
querying. Currently, only prog_id is needed, so there is no
additional in-kernel show_fdinfo() and fill_link_info() hook
is needed for BPF_LINK_TYPE_ITER link.
