Add two new kfunc's, bpf_percpu_obj_new_impl() and
bpf_percpu_obj_drop_impl(), to allocate a percpu obj.
Two functions are very similar to bpf_obj_new_impl()
and bpf_obj_drop_impl(). The major difference is related
to percpu handling.
bpf_rcu_read_lock()
struct val_t __percpu_kptr *v = map_val->percpu_data;
...
bpf_rcu_read_unlock()
For a percpu data map_val like above 'v', the reg->type
is set as
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_PERCPU | MEM_RCU
if inside rcu critical section.
MEM_RCU marking here is similar to NON_OWN_REF as 'v'
is not a owning reference. But NON_OWN_REF is
trusted and typically inside the spinlock while
MEM_RCU is under rcu read lock. RCU is preferred here
since percpu data structures mean potential concurrent
access into its contents.
Also, bpf_percpu_obj_new_impl() is restricted such that
no pointers or special fields are allowed. Therefore,
the bpf_list_head and bpf_rb_root will not be supported
in this patch set to avoid potential memory leak issue
due to racing between bpf_obj_free_fields() and another
bpf_kptr_xchg() moving an allocated object to
bpf_list_head and bpf_rb_root.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
