Merge branch 'bpf-libbpf-mapinmap'
Nikita V. Shirokov says:
====================
In this patch series I'm adding a helper for libbpf which would allow
it to load map-in-map(BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS and BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS).
First patch contains new helper + explains proposed workflow second patch
contains tests which also could be used as example usage.
v4->v5:
- naming: renamed everything to map_in_map instead of mapinmap
- start to return nonzero val if set_inner_map_fd failed
v3->v4:
- renamed helper to set_inner_map_fd
- now we set this value only if it haven't
been set before and only for (array|hash) of maps
v2->v3:
- fixing typo in patch description
- initializing inner_map_fd to -1 by default
v1->v2:
- addressing nits
- removing const identifier from fd in new helper
- starting to check return val for bpf_map_update_elem
