[PATCH bpf-next v1 0/9] Extend cgroup interface with bpf

[Hao Luo <haoluo@google.com>]

This patchset provides a bpf solution for monitoring cgroup activities
and exporting cgroup states in an organized way in bpffs. It introduces
the following features:

 1. sleepable tracepoints and sleepable tracing programs.
 2. a set of bpf helpers for creating and deleting files and
    directories in bpffs.
 3. a new iter prog, parameterizable by cgroup ids, to print cgroup
    state.

Sleepable tracepoints and tracing progs allow us to run bpf progs when
a new cgroup is created or an existing cgroup is removed. The set of
filesystem helpers allows sleepable tracing progs to set up directories
in bpffs for each cgroup. The progs can also pin and unlink bpf objects
from these bpffs directories. The new iter prog can be used to export
cgroup states. Using this set of additions, we are creating an extension
to the current cgroup interface to export per-cgroup stats.

See the selftest added in patch 09/09, test_cgroup_stats, as a full
example on how it can be done. The test develops a custom metric
measuring per-cgroup scheduling latencies and exports it via cgroup
iters, which are pinned by sleepable tracing progs attaching at cgroup
tracepoints.

Not only for per-cgroup stats, the same approach can be used for other
states such as task_vma iter and per-bpf-prog state. As an example, we
can write sleepable tracing progs to monitor task fork and exit, and let
the tracing prog to set up directories, parameterize task_vma iter and
pin the iters.
