Add new BPF helper, bpf_get_attach_cookie(), which can be used by BPF programs to get access to a user-provided bpf_cookie value, specified during BPF program attachment (BPF link creation) time. Naming is hard, though. With the concept being named "BPF cookie", I've considered calling the helper: - bpf_get_cookie() -- seems too unspecific and easily mistaken with socket cookie; - bpf_get_bpf_cookie() -- too much tautology; - bpf_get_link_cookie() -- would be ok, but while we create a BPF link to attach BPF program to BPF hook, it's still an "attachment" and the bpf_cookie is associated with BPF program attachment to a hook, not a BPF link itself. Technically, we could support bpf_cookie with old-style cgroup programs.So I ultimately rejected it in favor of bpf_get_attach_cookie(). Currently all perf_event-backed BPF program types support bpf_get_attach_cookie() helper. Follow-up patches will add support for fentry/fexit programs as well. While at it, mark bpf_tracing_func_proto() as static to make it obvious that it's only used from within the kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c.
