[PATCH RFC v2 net-next 09/16] bpf: expand BPF syscall with program load/unload

From: Alexei Starovoitov
Date: Fri Jul 18 2014 - 00:33:11 EST


eBPF programs are safe run-to-completion functions with load/unload
methods from userspace similar to kernel modules.

User space API:

- load eBPF program
fd = bpf_prog_load(bpf_prog_type, struct nlattr *prog, int len)

where 'prog' is a sequence of sections (TEXT, LICENSE, MAP_ASSOC)
TEXT - array of eBPF instructions
LICENSE - must be GPL compatible to call helper functions marked gpl_only
MAP_FIXUP - array of {insn idx, map fd} used by kernel to adjust
imm constants in 'mov' instructions used to access maps

- unload eBPF program
close(fd)

User space example of syscall(__NR_bpf, BPF_PROG_LOAD, prog_type, ...)
follows in later patches
