[RFC 0/5] mm/bpf/perf: Store build id in file object

[Jiri Olsa]

hi,
we have a use cases for bpf programs to use binary file's build id.

After some attempts to add helpers/kfuncs [1] [2] Andrii had an idea [3]
to store build id directly in the file object. That would solve our use
case and might be beneficial for other profiling/tracing use cases with
bpf programs.

This RFC patchset adds new config CONFIG_FILE_BUILD_ID option, which adds
build id object pointer to the file object when enabled. The build id is
read/populated when the file is mmap-ed.

I also added bpf and perf changes that would benefit from this.

I'm not sure what's the policy on adding stuff to file object, so apologies
if that's out of line. I'm open to any feedback or suggestions if there's
better place or way to do this.

thanks,
jirka
