Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v13 0/2] bpf: adding get_fd_path helper

This patch series introduce a bpf helper that can be used to map a file
descriptor to a pathname.

This requirement is mainly discussed here:

  https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/237

This implementation supports both local and mountable pseudo file systems,
and ensure we're in user context which is safe for this helper to run.

Changes since v12:

* Rename to get_fd_patch

* Fix test issue on big-endian machines


Changes since v11:

* Only allow tracepoints to make sure it won't dead lock


Changes since v10:

* Fix missing fput


Changes since v9:

* Associate help patch with its selftests patch to this series

* Refactor selftests code for further simplification  


Changes since v8:

* Format helper description 
 

Changes since v7:

* Use fget_raw instead of fdget_raw, as fdget_raw is only used inside fs/

* Ensure we're in user context which is safe fot the help to run

* Filter unmountable pseudo filesystem, because they don't have real path

* Supplement the description of this helper function


Changes since v6:

* Fix missing signed-off-by line


Changes since v5:

* Refactor helper avoid unnecessary goto end by having two explicit returns


Changes since v4:

* Rename bpf_fd2path to bpf_get_file_path to be consistent with other
helper's names

* When fdget_raw fails, set ret to -EBADF instead of -EINVAL

* Remove fdput from fdget_raw's error path

* Use IS_ERR instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL as d_path ether returns a pointer
into the buffer or an error code if the path was too long

* Modify the normal path's return value to return copied string length
including NUL

* Update helper description's Return bits.

* Refactor selftests code for further simplification  


Changes since v3:

* Remove unnecessary LOCKDOWN_BPF_READ

* Refactor error handling section for enhanced readability

* Provide a test case in tools/testing/selftests/bpf

* Refactor sefltests code to use real global variables instead of maps


Changes since v2:

* Fix backward compatibility

* Add helper description

* Refactor selftests use global data instead of perf_buffer to simplified
code

* Fix signed-off name


Wenbo Zhang (2):
  bpf: add new helper get_fd_path for mapping a file descriptor to a
    pathname
