Martin KaFai Lau fad73a1a35 bpf: Fix and simplifications on inline map lookup
Fix in verifier:
For the same bpf_map_lookup_elem() instruction (i.e. "call 1"),
a broken case is "a different type of map could be used for the
same lookup instruction". For example, an array in one case and a
hashmap in another.  We have to resort to the old dynamic call behavior
in this case.  The fix is to check for collision on insn_aux->map_ptr.
If there is collision, don't inline the map lookup.

Please see the "do_reg_lookup()" in test_map_in_map_kern.c in the later
patch for how-to trigger the above case.

Simplifications on array_map_gen_lookup():
1. Calculate elem_size from map->value_size.  It removes the
   need for 'struct bpf_array' which makes the later map-in-map
   implementation easier.
2. Remove the 'elem_size == 1' test

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
