Daniel Borkmann 6256f8c9e4 tc, bpf: finalize eBPF support for cls and act front-end
This work finalizes both eBPF front-ends for the classifier and action
part in tc, it allows for custom ELF section selection, a simplified tc
command frontend (while keeping compat), reusing of common maps between
classifier and actions residing in the same object file, and exporting
of all map fds to an eBPF agent for handing off further control in user
space.

It also adds an extensive example of how eBPF can be used, and a minimal
self-contained example agent that dumps map data. The example is well
documented and hopefully provides a good starting point into programming
cls_bpf and act_bpf.

This is a set of utilities for Linux networking.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a Config file which
contains whether or not ATM is available, etc.

3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
   look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
   PAGESIZE=a4		, ie: a4 , letter ...	(string)
   PAGESPERPAGE=2	, ie: 1 , 2 ...		(numeric)
   and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
   are in your path.

4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
   the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
   if you have special requirements and need to point at different
   kernel include files.
