[PATCH bpf-next 0/2] Support RENAME_EXCHANGE on bpffs

From: Lorenz Bauer <hidden>
Date: 2021-10-20 08:30:09
Also in: bpf

Add support for renameat2(RENAME_EXCHANGE) on bpffs. This is useful
for atomic upgrades of our sk_lookup control plane.

* Create a temporary directory on bpffs
* Migrate maps and pin them into temporary directory
* Load new sk_lookup BPF, attach it and pin the link into temp dir
* renameat2(temp dir, state dir, RENAME_EXCHANGE)
* rmdir temp dir

Due to the sk_lookup semantics this means we can never end up in a
situation where an upgrade breaks the existing control plane.
