Merge branch 'bpf_link-observability'
Andrii Nakryiko says:
====================
This patch series adds various observability APIs to bpf_link:
- each bpf_link now gets ID, similar to bpf_map and bpf_prog, by which
user-space can iterate over all existing bpf_links and create limited FD
from ID;
- allows to get extra object information with bpf_link general and
type-specific information;
- implements `bpf link show` command which lists all active bpf_links in the
system;
- implements `bpf link pin` allowing to pin bpf_link by ID or from other
pinned path.
v2->v3:
- improve spin locking around bpf_link ID (Alexei);
- simplify bpf_link_info handling and fix compilation error on sh arch;
v1->v2:
- simplified `bpftool link show` implementation (Quentin);
- fixed formatting of bpftool-link.rst (Quentin);
- fixed attach type printing logic (Quentin);
rfc->v1:
- dropped read-only bpf_links (Alexei);
- fixed bug in bpf_link_cleanup() not removing ID;
- fixed bpftool link pinning search logic;
- added bash-completion and man page.
