[Bug libc/18271] New: Expose new bpf(2) system call


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18271

            Bug ID: 18271
           Summary: Expose new bpf(2) system call
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: daniel at iogearbox dot net
                CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com

In September last year, the Linux kernel has included support for the new
bpf(2) system call:

 
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=b4fc1a460f3017e958e6a8ea560ea0afd91bf6fe

Would be great if glibc could wire that up and expose the interface as
documented in the merge message, so that application developers don't need to
implement this each time via syscall(2) by hand.
