Martin KaFai Lau dc4bb0e235 bpf: Introduce bpf_prog ID
This patch generates an unique ID for each BPF_PROG_LOAD-ed prog.
It is worth to note that each BPF_PROG_LOAD-ed prog will have
a different ID even they have the same bpf instructions.

The ID is generated by the existing idr_alloc_cyclic().
The ID is ranged from [1, INT_MAX).  It is allocated in cyclic manner,
so an ID will get reused every 2 billion BPF_PROG_LOAD.

The bpf_prog_alloc_id() is done after bpf_prog_select_runtime()
because the jit process may have allocated a new prog.  Hence,
we need to ensure the value of pointer 'prog' will not be changed
any more before storing the prog to the prog_idr.

After bpf_prog_select_runtime(), the prog is read-only.  Hence,
the id is stored in 'struct bpf_prog_aux'.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
