[PATCH bpf-next] libbpf: Add bpf_object__rodata getter function

From: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <hidden>
Date: 2020-03-26 15:18:05
Also in: bpf
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [library] (libbpf), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

This adds a new getter function to libbpf to get the rodata area of a bpf
object. This is useful if a program wants to modify the rodata before
loading the object. Any such modification needs to be done before loading,
since libbpf freezes the backing map after populating it (to allow the
kernel to do dead code elimination based on its contents).
