<title>bpftool: Add `gen object` command to perform BPF static linking</title>

<id>d80b2fcbe0a023619e0fc73112f2a02c2662f6ab</id>
<content type='text'>
Add `bpftool gen object &lt;output-file&gt; &lt;input_file&gt;...` command to statically
link multiple BPF ELF object files into a single output BPF ELF object file.

This patch also updates bash completions and man page. Man page gets a short
section on `gen object` command, but also updates the skeleton example to show
off workflow for BPF application with two .bpf.c files, compiled individually
with Clang, then resulting object files are linked together with `gen object`,
and then final object file is used to generate usable BPF skeleton. This
should help new users understand realistic workflow w.r.t. compiling
mutli-file BPF application.

<title>tools: bpftool: Add "inner_map" to "bpftool map create" outer maps</title>

<id>e3b9626f09d429788d929c9b9000a069fcfc056e</id>
<content type='text'>
There is no support for creating maps of types array-of-map or
hash-of-map in bpftool. This is because the kernel needs an inner_map_fd
to collect metadata on the inner maps to be supported by the new map,
but bpftool does not provide a way to pass this file descriptor.

Add a new optional "inner_map" keyword that can be used to pass a
reference to a map, retrieve a fd to that map, and pass it as the
inner_map_fd.

Add related documentation and bash completion. Note that we can
reference the inner map by its name, meaning we can have several times
the keyword "name" with different meanings (mandatory outer map name,
and possibly a name to use to find the inner_map_fd). The bash
completion will offer it just once, and will not suggest "name" on the
following command:

    # bpftool map create /sys/fs/bpf/my_outer_map type hash_of_maps \
        inner_map name my_inner_map [TAB]

Fixing that specific case seems too convoluted. Completion will work as
expected, however, if the outer map name comes first and the "inner_map
name ..." is passed second.

<content type='text'>
Similar to bpf_local_storage for sockets, add local storage for inodes.
The life-cycle of storage is managed with the life-cycle of the inode.
i.e. the storage is destroyed along with the owning inode.

The BPF LSM allocates an __rcu pointer to the bpf_local_storage in the
security blob which are now stackable and can co-exist with other LSMs.

The optional parameter "map MAP" can be added to "bpftool iter"
command to create a bpf iterator for map elements. For example,
  bpftool iter pin ./prog.o /sys/fs/bpf/p1 map id 333

For map element bpf iterator "map MAP" parameter is required.
Otherwise, bpf link creation will return an error.

Quentin Monnet kindly provided bash-completion implementation
for new "map MAP" option.
