Song Liu 3a7b35b899 bpf: Introduce task_vma bpf_iter
Introduce task_vma bpf_iter to print memory information of a process. It
can be used to print customized information similar to /proc/<pid>/maps.

Current /proc/<pid>/maps and /proc/<pid>/smaps provide information of
vma's of a process. However, these information are not flexible enough to
cover all use cases. For example, if a vma cover mixed 2MB pages and 4kB
pages (x86_64), there is no easy way to tell which address ranges are
backed by 2MB pages. task_vma solves the problem by enabling the user to
generate customize information based on the vma (and vma->vm_mm,
vma->vm_file, etc.).

To access the vma safely in the BPF program, task_vma iterator holds
target mmap_lock while calling the BPF program. If the mmap_lock is
contended, task_vma unlocks mmap_lock between iterations to unblock the
writer(s). This lock contention avoidance mechanism is similar to the one
used in show_smaps_rollup().

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
