Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v4] bpf: add new helper fd2path for mapping a file descriptor to a pathname

From: Wenbo Zhang <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 28 Oct 2019 10:10:53 -0400

When people want to identify which file system files are being opened,
read, and written to, they can use this helper with file descriptor as
input to achieve this goal. Other pseudo filesystems are also supported.

This requirement is mainly discussed here:

  https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/237

v3->v4:
- fix missing fdput()
- move fd2path from kernel/bpf/trace.c to kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c
- move fd2path's test code to another patch

v2->v3:
- remove unnecessary LOCKDOWN_BPF_READ
- refactor error handling section for enhanced readability
- provide a test case in tools/testing/selftests/bpf

v1->v2:
- fix backward compatibility
- add this helper description
- fix signed-off name
