Jesper Dangaard Brouer 156450d9d9 samples/bpf: make bpf_load.c code compatible with ELF maps section changes
This patch does proper parsing of the ELF "maps" section, in-order to
be both backwards and forwards compatible with changes to the map
definition struct bpf_map_def, which gets compiled into the ELF file.

The assumption is that new features with value zero, means that they
are not in-use.  For backward compatibility where loading an ELF file
with a smaller struct bpf_map_def, only copy objects ELF size, leaving
rest of loaders struct zero.  For forward compatibility where ELF file
have a larger struct bpf_map_def, only copy loaders own struct size
and verify that rest of the larger struct is zero, assuming this means
the newer feature was not activated, thus it should be safe for this
older loader to load this newer ELF file.

Fixes: fb30d4b712 ("bpf: Add tests for map-in-map")
Fixes: 409526bea3c3 ("samples/bpf: bpf_load.c detect and abort if ELF maps section size is wrong")

README

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.
