tools: bpftool: add map create command
Add a way of creating maps from user space. The command takes
as parameters most of the attributes of the map creation system
call command. After map is created its pinned to bpffs. This makes
it possible to easily and dynamically (without rebuilding programs)
test various corner cases related to map creation.
Map type names are taken from bpftool's array used for printing.
In general these days we try to make use of libbpf type names, but
there are no map type names in libbpf as of today.
As with most features I add the motivation is testing (offloads) :)

bpf: bpftool, add flag to allow non-compat map definitions
Multiple map definition structures exist and user may have non-zero
fields in their definition that are not recognized by bpftool and
libbpf. The normal behavior is to then fail loading the map. Although
this is a good default behavior users may still want to load the map
for debugging or other reasons. This patch adds a --mapcompat flag
that can be used to override the default behavior and allow loading
the map even when it has additional non-zero fields.
For now the only user is 'bpftool prog' we can switch over other
subcommands as needed. The library exposes an API that consumes
a flags field now but I kept the original API around also in case
users of the API don't want to expose this. The flags field is an
int in case we need more control over how the API call handles
errors/features/etc in the future.

tools: bpftool: make it easier to feed hex bytes to bpftool
bpftool uses hexadecimal values when it dumps map contents:
# bpftool map dump id 1337
key: ff 13 37 ff value: a1 b2 c3 d4 ff ff
tools: bpftool: make it easier to feed hex bytes to bpftool
bpftool uses hexadecimal values when it dumps map contents:
# bpftool map dump id 1337
key: ff 13 37 ff value: a1 b2 c3 d4 ff ff ff ff
Found 1 element
In order to lookup or update values with bpftool, the natural reflex is
then to copy and paste the values to the command line, and to try to run
something like:
# bpftool map update id 1337 key ff 13 37 ff \
value 00 00 00 00 00 00 1a 2b
Error: error parsing byte: ff
bpftool complains, because it uses strtoul() with a 0 base to parse the
bytes, and that without a "0x" prefix, the bytes are considered as
decimal values (or even octal if they start with "0").
To feed hexadecimal values instead, one needs to add "0x" prefixes
everywhere necessary:
# bpftool map update id 1337 key 0xff 0x13 0x37 0xff \
value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0x1a 0x2b
To make it easier to use hexadecimal values, add an optional "hex"
keyword to put after "key" or "value" to tell bpftool to consider the
digits as hexadecimal. We can now do:
# bpftool map update id 1337 key hex ff 13 37 ff \
value hex 0 0 0 0 0 0 1a 2b
Without the "hex" keyword, the bytes are still parsed according to
normal integer notation (decimal if no prefix, or hexadecimal or octal
if "0x" or "0" prefix is used, respectively).
The patch also add related documentation and bash completion for the
"hex" keyword.
