Merge branch 'unsupported-map-lookup'
Prashant Bhole says:
====================
Currently when map a lookup fails, user space API can not make any
distinction whether given key was not found or lookup is not supported
by particular map.
In this series we modify return value of maps which do not support
lookup. Lookup on such map implementation will return -EOPNOTSUPP.
bpf() syscall with BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM command will set EOPNOTSUPP
errno. We also handle this error in bpftool to print appropriate
message.
Patch 1: adds handling of BPF_MAP_LOOKUP ELEM command of bpf syscall
such that errno will set to EOPNOTSUPP when map doesn't support lookup
Patch 2: Modifies the return value of map_lookup_elem() to EOPNOTSUPP
for maps which do not support lookup
Patch 3: Splits do_dump() in bpftool/map.c. Element printing code is
moved out into new function dump_map_elem(). This was done in order to
reduce deep indentation and accomodate further changes.
Patch 4: Changes in bpftool to print strerror() message when lookup
error is occured. This will result in appropriate message like
"Operation not supported" when map doesn't support lookup.
Patch 5: test_verifier: change fixup map naming convention as
suggested by Alexei
Patch 6: Added verifier tests to check whether verifier rejects call
to bpf_map_lookup_elem from bpf program. For all map types those
do not support map lookup.
