    bpf: introduce current->pid, tgid, uid, gid, comm accessors · ffeedafb
    Alexei Starovoitov authored
    eBPF programs attached to kprobes need to filter based on
    current->pid, uid and other fields, so introduce helper functions:
    
    u64 bpf_get_current_pid_tgid(void)
    Return: current->tgid << 32 | current->pid
    
    u64 bpf_get_current_uid_gid(void)
    Return: current_gid << 32 | current_uid
    
    bpf_get_current_comm(char *buf, int size_of_buf)
    stores current->comm into buf
    
    They can be used from the programs attached to TC as well to classify packets
    based on current task fields.
    
    Update tracex2 example to print histogram of write syscalls for each process
    instead of aggregated for all.
