Jesper Dangaard Brouer f9419f7bd7 bpf: cpumap add tracepoints
This adds two tracepoint to the cpumap.  One for the enqueue side
trace_xdp_cpumap_enqueue() and one for the kthread dequeue side
trace_xdp_cpumap_kthread().

To mitigate the tracepoint overhead, these are invoked during the
enqueue/dequeue bulking phases, thus amortizing the cost.

The obvious use-cases are for debugging and monitoring.  The
non-intuitive use-case is using these as a feedback loop to know the
system load.  One can imagine auto-scaling by reducing, adding or
activating more worker CPUs on demand.

V4: tracepoint remove time_limit info, instead add sched info

V8: intro struct bpf_cpu_map_entry members cpu+map_id in this patch

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.
