[PATCH net-next 2/3 v2] bpf: change helper bpf_probe_read arg2 type to ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO

From: Yonghong Song <hidden>
Date: 2017-11-12 16:04:03
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [security & lsm] (security audit and enforcement using bpf), bpf [tracing], the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, KP Singh, Matt Bobrowski, Song Liu, Linus Torvalds, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu

The helper bpf_probe_read arg2 type is changed
from ARG_CONST_SIZE to ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO to permit
size-0 buffer. Together with newer ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO
semantics which allows non-NULL buffer with size 0,
this allows simpler bpf programs with verifier acceptance.
The previous commit which changes ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO semantics
has details on examples.
