bpf: allow extended BPF programs access skb fields
introduce user accessible mirror of in-kernel 'struct sk_buff': struct __sk_buff { __u32 len; __u32 pkt_type; __u32 mark; __u32 queue_mapping; }; bpf programs can do: int bpf_prog(struct __sk_buff *skb) { __u32 var = skb->pkt_type; which will be compiled to bpf assembler as: dst_reg = *(u32 *)(src_reg + 4) // 4 == offsetof(struct __sk_buff, pkt_type) bpf verifier will check validity of access and will convert it to: dst_reg = *(u8 *)(src_reg + offsetof(struct sk_buff, __pkt_type_offset)) dst_reg &= 7 since skb->pkt_type is a bitfield.
