There is a need for fast point lookups inside libbpf for multiple use cases (e.g., name resolution for BTF-to-C conversion, by-name lookups in BTF for upcoming BPF CO-RE relocation support, etc). This patch implements simple resizable non-thread safe hashmap using single linked list chains. Four different insert strategies are supported: - HASHMAP_ADD - only add key/value if key doesn't exist yet; - HASHMAP_SET - add key/value pair if key doesn't exist yet; otherwise, update value; - HASHMAP_UPDATE - update value, if key already exists; otherwise, do nothing and return -ENOENT; - HASHMAP_APPEND - always add key/value pair, even if key already exists. This turns hashmap into a multimap by allowing multiple values to be associated with the same key. Most useful read API for such hashmap is hashmap__for_each_key_entry() iteration. If hashmap__find() is still used, it will return last inserted key/value entry (first in a bucket chain). For HASHMAP_SET and HASHMAP_UPDATE, old key/value pair is returned, so that calling code can handle proper memory management, if necessary.

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.
