      bpf: implement bpf_get_current_cgroup_id() helper · bf6fa2c8
      Yonghong Song authored
      bpf has been used extensively for tracing. For example, bcc
      contains an almost full set of bpf-based tools to trace kernel
      and user functions/events. Most tracing tools are currently
      either filtered based on pid or system-wide.
      
      Containers have been used quite extensively in industry and
      cgroup is often used together to provide resource isolation
      and protection. Several processes may run inside the same
      container. It is often desirable to get container-level tracing
      results as well, e.g. syscall count, function count, I/O
      activity, etc.
      
      This patch implements a new helper, bpf_get_current_cgroup_id(),
      which will return cgroup id based on the cgroup within which
      the current task is running.
      
      The later patch will provide an example to show that
      userspace can get the same cgroup id so it could
      configure a filter or policy in the bpf program based on
      task cgroup id.
      
      The helper is currently implemented for tracing. It can
      be added to other program types as well when needed.
