Kui-Feng Lee 187e2af05a bpf: struct_ops supports more than one page for trampolines.
The BPF struct_ops previously only allowed one page of trampolines.
Each function pointer of a struct_ops is implemented by a struct_ops
bpf program. Each struct_ops bpf program requires a trampoline.
The following selftest patch shows each page can hold a little more
than 20 trampolines.

While one page is more than enough for the tcp-cc usecase,
the sched_ext use case shows that one page is not always enough and hits
the one page limit. This patch overcomes the one page limit by allocating
another page when needed and it is limited to a total of
MAX_IMAGE_PAGES (8) pages which is more than enough for
reasonable usages.

The variable st_map->image has been changed to st_map->image_pages, and
its type has been changed to an array of pointers to pages.

README

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.
