Add a new benchmark which measures hashmap lookup operations speed. A user can
control the following parameters of the benchmark:
* key_size (max 1024): the key size to use
* max_entries: the hashmap max entries
* nr_entries: the number of entries to insert/lookup
* nr_loops: the number of loops for the benchmark
* map_flags The hashmap flags passed to BPF_MAP_CREATE
The BPF program performing the benchmarks calls two nested bpf_loop:
bpf_loop(nr_loops/nr_entries)
bpf_loop(nr_entries)
bpf_map_lookup()
So the nr_loops determines the number of actual map lookups. All lookups are
successful.
Example (the output is generated on a AMD Ryzen 9 3950X machine):
for nr_entries in `seq 4096 4096 65536`; do echo -n "$((nr_entries*100/65536))% full: "; sudo ./bench -d2 -a bpf-hashmap-lookup --key_size=4 --nr_entries=$nr_entries --max_entries=65536 --nr_loops=1000000 --map_flags=0x40 | grep cpu; done

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.
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.
