Alexei Starovoitov 8c290e60fa bpf: fix hashmap extra_elems logic
In both kmalloc and prealloc mode the bpf_map_update_elem() is using
per-cpu extra_elems to do atomic update when the map is full.
There are two issues with it. The logic can be misused, since it allows
max_entries+num_cpus elements to be present in the map. And alloc_extra_elems()
at map creation time can fail percpu alloc for large map values with a warn:
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 2752 at ../mm/percpu.c:892 pcpu_alloc+0x119/0xa60
illegal size (32824) or align (8) for percpu allocation

The fixes for both of these issues are different for kmalloc and prealloc modes.
For prealloc mode allocate extra num_possible_cpus elements and store
their pointers into extra_elems array instead of actual elements.
Hence we can use these hidden(spare) elements not only when the map is full
but during bpf_map_update_elem() that replaces existing element too.
That also improves performance, since pcpu_freelist_pop/push is avoided.
Unfortunately this approach cannot be used for kmalloc mode which needs
to kfree elements after rcu grace period. Therefore switch it back to normal
kmalloc even when full and old element exists like it was prior to
commit 6c9059817432 ("bpf: pre-allocate hash map elements").

Add tests to check for over max_entries and large map values.

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.
