If an eBPF program accesses a map, LLVM generates a load instruction which loads an absolute address into a register, like this: ld_64 r1, <MCOperand Expr:(mymap)> ... call 2 That ld_64 instruction will be recorded in relocation section. To enable the usage of that map, relocation must be done by replacing the immediate value by real map file descriptor so it can be found by eBPF map functions. This patch to the relocation work based on information collected by patches: 'bpf tools: Collect symbol table from SHT_SYMTAB section', 'bpf tools: Collect relocation sections from SHT_REL sections' and 'bpf tools: Record map accessing instructions for each program'. For each instruction which needs relocation, it inject corresponding file descriptor to imm field. As a part of protocol, src_reg is set to BPF_PSEUDO_MAP_FD to notify kernel this is a map loading instruction. This is the final part of map relocation patch. The principle of map relocation is described in commit message of 'bpf tools: Collect symbol table from SHT_SYMTAB section'.
