[PATCH bpf-next v5 2/6] bpf: Add a ARG_PTR_TO_CONST_STR argument type

From: Florent Revest
Date: Mon Apr 19 2021 - 11:52:57 EST


This type provides the guarantee that an argument is going to be a const
pointer to somewhere in a read-only map value. It also checks that this
pointer is followed by a zero character before the end of the map value.
