    ====================
    pull-request: bpf-next 2018-03-31
    
    The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
    
    The main changes are:
    
    1) Add raw BPF tracepoint API in order to have a BPF program type that
       can access kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their
       raw form similar to kprobes based BPF programs. This infrastructure
       also adds a new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN command to BPF syscall which
       returns an anon-inode backed fd for the tracepoint object that allows
       for automatic detach of the BPF program resp. unregistering of the
       tracepoint probe on fd release, from Alexei.
    
    2) Add new BPF cgroup hooks at bind() and connect() entry in order to
       allow BPF programs to reject, inspect or modify user space passed
       struct sockaddr, and as well a hook at post bind time once the port
       has been allocated. They are used in FB's container management engine
       for implementing policy, replacing fragile LD_PRELOAD wrapper
       intercepting bind() and connect() calls that only works in limited
       scenarios like glibc based apps but not for other runtimes in
       containerized applications, from Andrey.
    
    3) BPF_F_INGRESS flag support has been added to sockmap programs for
       their redirect helper call bringing it in line with cls_bpf based
       programs. Support is added for both variants of sockmap programs,
       meaning for tx ULP hooks as well as recv skb hooks, from John.
    
    4) Various improvements on BPF side for the nfp driver, besides others
       this work adds BPF map update and delete helper call support from
       the datapath, JITing of 32 and 64 bit XADD instructions as well as
       offload support of bpf_get_prandom_u32() call. Initial implementation
       of nfp packet cache has been tackled that optimizes memory access
       (see merge commit for further details), from Jakub and Jiong.
    
    5) Removal of struct bpf_verifier_env argument from the print_bpf_insn()
       API has been done in order to prepare to use print_bpf_insn() soon
       out of perf tool directly. This makes the print_bpf_insn() API more
       generic and pushes the env into private data. bpftool is adjusted
       as well with the print_bpf_insn() argument removal, from Jiri.
    
    6) Couple of cleanups and prep work for the upcoming BTF (BPF Type
       Format). The latter will reuse the current BPF verifier log as
       well, thus bpf_verifier_log() is further generalized, from Martin.
    
    7) For bpf_getsockopt() and bpf_setsockopt() helpers, IPv4 IP_TOS read
       and write support has been added in similar fashion to existing
       IPv6 IPV6_TCLASS socket option we already have, from Nikita.
    
    8) Fixes in recent sockmap scatterlist API usage, which did not use
       sg_init_table() for initialization thus triggering a BUG_ON() in
       scatterlist API when CONFIG_DEBUG_SG was enabled. This adds and
       uses a small helper sg_init_marker() to properly handle the affected
       cases, from Prashant.
    
    9) Let the BPF core follow IDR code convention and therefore use the
       idr_preload() and idr_preload_end() helpers, which would also help
       idr_alloc_cyclic() under GFP_ATOMIC to better succeed under memory
       pressure, from Shaohua.
    
    10) Last but not least, a spelling fix in an error message for the
        BPF cookie UID helper under BPF sample code, from Colin.
