tools: bpftool: make it easier to feed hex bytes to bpftool
bpftool uses hexadecimal values when it dumps map contents: # bpftool map dump id 1337 key: ff 13 37 ff value: a1 b2 c3 d4 ff ff ff ff Found 1 element In order to lookup or update values with bpftool, the natural reflex is then to copy and paste the values to the command line, and to try to run something like: # bpftool map update id 1337 key ff 13 37 ff \ value 00 00 00 00 00 00 1a 2b Error: error parsing byte: ff bpftool complains, because it uses strtoul() with a 0 base to parse the bytes, and that without a "0x" prefix, the bytes are considered as decimal values (or even octal if they start with "0"). To feed hexadecimal values instead, one needs to add "0x" prefixes everywhere necessary: # bpftool map update id 1337 key 0xff 0x13 0x37 0xff \ value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0x1a 0x2b To make it easier to use hexadecimal values, add an optional "hex" keyword to put after "key" or "value" to tell bpftool to consider the digits as hexadecimal. We can now do: # bpftool map update id 1337 key hex ff 13 37 ff \ value hex 0 0 0 0 0 0 1a 2b Without the "hex" keyword, the bytes are still parsed according to normal integer notation (decimal if no prefix, or hexadecimal or octal if "0x" or "0" prefix is used, respectively). The patch also add related documentation and bash completion for the "hex" keyword.

**bpftool map dump** *MAP*
Dump all entries in a given *MAP*.
- **bpftool map update** *MAP* **key** *BYTES* **value** *VALUE* [*UPDATE_FLAGS*]
+ **bpftool map update** *MAP* **key** [**hex**] *BYTES* **value** [**hex**] *VALUE* [*UPDATE_FLAGS*]
Update map entry for a given *KEY*.
*UPDATE_FLAGS* can be one of: **any** update existing entry
or add if doesn't exit; **exist** update only if entry already
exists; **noexist** update only if entry doesn't exist.
- **bpftool map lookup** *MAP* **key** *BYTES*
+ If the **hex** keyword is provided in front of the bytes
+ sequence, the bytes are parsed as hexadeximal values, even if
+ no "0x" prefix is added. If the keyword is not provided, then
+ the bytes are parsed as decimal values, unless a "0x" prefix
+ (for hexadecimal) or a "0" prefix (for octal) is provided.
+
+ **bpftool map lookup** *MAP* **key** [**hex**] *BYTES*
Lookup **key** in the map.
- **bpftool map getnext** *MAP* [**key** *BYTES*]
+ **bpftool map getnext** *MAP* [**key** [**hex**] *BYTES*]
Get next key. If *key* is not specified, get first key.
- **bpftool map delete** *MAP* **key** *BYTES*
+ **bpftool map delete** *MAP* **key** [**hex**] *BYTES*
Remove entry from the map.
