Since we have all infrastructure in place now, allow atomic live updates
on program arrays. This can be very useful e.g. in case programs that are
being tail-called need to be replaced, f.e. when classifier functionality
needs to be changed, new protocols added/removed during runtime, etc.
Thus, provide a way for in-place code updates, minimal example: Given is
an object file cls.o that contains the entry point in section 'classifier',
has a globally pinned program array 'jmp' with 2 slots and id of 0, and
two tail called programs under section '0/0' (prog array key 0) and '0/1'
(prog array key 1), the section encoding for the loader is <id/key>.
Adding the filter loads everything into cls_bpf:
tc filter add dev foo parent ffff: bpf da obj cls.o
Now, the program under section '0/1' needs to be replaced with an updated
version that resides in the same section (also full path to tc's subfolder
of the mount point can be passed, e.g. /sys/fs/bpf/tc/globals/jmp):
tc exec bpf graft m:globals/jmp obj cls.o sec 0/1
In case the program resides under a different section 'foo', it can also
be injected into the program array like:
If the new tail called classifier program is already available as a pinned
object somewhere (here: /sys/fs/bpf/tc/progs/parser), it can be injected
into the prog array like:
