Paul Chaignon c04fb2b0bd bpftool: Probe for bounded loop support
This patch introduces a new probe to check whether the verifier supports
bounded loops as introduced in commit 2589726d12 ("bpf: introduce
bounded loops"). This patch will allow BPF users such as Cilium to probe
for loop support on startup and only unconditionally unroll loops on
older kernels.

The results are displayed as part of the miscellaneous section, as shown
below.

  $ bpftool feature probe | grep loops
  Bounded loop support is available
  $ bpftool feature probe macro | grep LOOPS
  #define HAVE_BOUNDED_LOOPS
  $ bpftool feature probe -j | jq .misc
  {
    "have_large_insn_limit": true,
    "have_bounded_loops": true
  }

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.
