Paul Chaignon d71962f3e6 bpf: allow map helpers access to map values directly
Helpers that expect ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY and ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE can only
access stack and packet memory.  Allow these helpers to directly access
map values by passing registers of type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE.

This change removes the need for an extra copy to the stack when using a
map value to perform a second map lookup, as in the following:

struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") infobyreq = {
    .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASHMAP,
    .key_size = sizeof(struct request *),
    .value_size = sizeof(struct info_t),
    .max_entries = 1024,
};
struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") counts = {
    .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASHMAP,
    .key_size = sizeof(struct info_t),
    .value_size = sizeof(u64),
    .max_entries = 1024,
};
SEC("kprobe/blk_account_io_start")
int bpf_blk_account_io_start(struct pt_regs *ctx)
{
    struct info_t *info = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&infobyreq, &ctx->di);
    u64 *count = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&counts, info);
    (*count)++;
}

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.
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.
