selftests/bpf: Test rhtab kptr cancellation semanticsgrafted

Resizable hash-map updates and deletions must not perform full special-field
destruction in their caller context. In particular, a referenced kptr must
remain attached to the allocation until the memory allocator destructor can
release it safely.

Add separate coverage for both affected paths. The update test stores a task
kptr, replaces the ordinary value bytes with BPF_EXIST, and verifies that the
kptr survived. The delete test removes an element and exchanges its kptr
through the still-valid map-value pointer before the allocation is reclaimed.

Both cases observe a NULL kptr when rhtab uses bpf_obj_free_fields(). They
recover and release the reference after rhtab switches to cancellation
semantics.

+AF_VSOCK test suite
+-------------------
+These tests exercise net/vmw_vsock/ host<->guest sockets for VMware, KVM, and
+Hyper-V.
+
+The following tests are available:
+
+  * vsock_test - core AF_VSOCK socket functionality
+  * vsock_diag_test - vsock_diag.ko module for listing open sockets
+
+The following prerequisite steps are not automated and must be performed prior
+to running tests:
+
+1. Build the kernel, make headers_install, and build these tests.
+2. Install the kernel and tests on the host.
+3. Install the kernel and tests inside the guest.
+4. Boot the guest and ensure that the AF_VSOCK transport is enabled.
+
+Invoke test binaries in both directions as follows:
+
+  # host=server, guest=client
+  (host)# $TEST_BINARY --mode=server \
+                       --control-port=1234 \
+                       --peer-cid=3
+  (guest)# $TEST_BINARY --mode=client \
+                        --control-host=$HOST_IP \
+                        --control-port=1234 \
+                        --peer-cid=2
+
+  # host=client, guest=server
+  (guest)# $TEST_BINARY --mode=server \
+                        --control-port=1234 \
+                        --peer-cid=2
+  (host)# $TEST_BINARY --mode=client \
+                       --control-port=$GUEST_IP \
+                       --control-port=1234 \
+                       --peer-cid=3
+
+Some tests are designed to produce kernel memory leaks. Leaks detection,
+however, is deferred to Kernel Memory Leak Detector. It is recommended to enable
+kmemleak (CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y) and explicitly trigger a scan after each test
+suite run, e.g.
+
+  # echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
+  # $TEST_BINARY ...
+  # echo "wait for any grace periods" && sleep 2
+  # echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
+  # echo "wait for kmemleak" && sleep 5
+  # echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
+  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
+
+For more information see Documentation/dev-tools/kmemleak.rst.

+vsock_perf utility
+-------------------
+'vsock_perf' is a simple tool to measure vsock performance. It works in
+sender/receiver modes: sender connect to peer at the specified port and
+starts data transmission to the receiver. After data processing is done,
+it prints several metrics(see below).
+
+Usage:
+# run as sender
+# connect to CID 2, port 1234, send 1G of data, tx buf size is 1M
+./vsock_perf --sender 2 --port 1234 --bytes 1G --buf-size 1M
+
+Output:
+tx performance: A Gbits/s
+
+Output explanation:
+A is calculated as "number of bits to send" / "time in tx loop"
+
+# run as receiver
+# listen port 1234, rx buf size is 1M, socket buf size is 1G, SO_RCVLOWAT is 64K
+./vsock_perf --port 1234 --buf-size 1M --vsk-size 1G --rcvlowat 64K
+
+Output:
+rx performance: A Gbits/s
+total in 'read()': B sec
+POLLIN wakeups: C
+average in 'read()': D ns
+
+Output explanation:
+A is calculated as "number of received bits" / "time in rx loop".
+B is time, spent in 'read()' system call(excluding 'poll()')
+C is number of 'poll()' wake ups with POLLIN bit set.
+D is B / C, e.g. average amount of time, spent in single 'read()'.
