This patch adds hash of maps support (hashmap->bpf_map). BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS is added. A map-in-map contains a pointer to another map and lets call this pointer 'inner_map_ptr'. Notes on deleting inner_map_ptr from a hash map: 1. For BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC map-in-map, when deleting an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem itself will go through a rcu grace period and the inner_map_ptr resides in the htab_elem. 2. For pre-allocated htab_elem (!BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC), when deleting an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem may get reused immediately. This situation is similar to the existing prealloc-ated use cases. However, the bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() calls bpf_map_put() which calls inner_map->ops->map_free(inner_map) which will go through a rcu grace period (i.e. all bpf_map's map_free currently goes through a rcu grace period). Hence, the inner_map_ptr is still safe for the rcu reader side. This patch also includes BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS to the check_map_prealloc() in the verifier. preallocation is a must for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT. Hence, even we don't expect heavy updates to map-in-map, enforcing BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC for map-in-map is impossible without disallowing BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT from using map-in-map first.
