bpf-next 2021-10-02
We've added 85 non-merge commits during the last 15 day(s) which contain
a total of 132 files changed, 13779 insertions(+), 6724 deletions(-).
The main changes are:
1) Massive update on test_bpf.ko coverage for JITs as preparatory work for
an upcoming MIPS eBPF JIT, from Johan Almbladh.
2) Add a batched interface for RX buffer allocation in AF_XDP buffer pool,
with driver support for i40e and ice from Magnus Karlsson.
3) Add legacy uprobe support to libbpf to complement recently merged legacy
kprobe support, from Andrii Nakryiko.
4) Add bpf_trace_vprintk() as variadic printk helper, from Dave Marchevsky.
5) Support saving the register state in verifier when spilling <8byte bounded
scalar to the stack, from Martin Lau.
6) Add libbpf opt-in for stricter BPF program section name handling as part
of libbpf 1.0 effort, from Andrii Nakryiko.
7) Add a document to help clarifying BPF licensing, from Alexei Starovoitov.
8) Fix skel_internal.h to propagate errno if the loader indicates an internal
error, from Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi.
9) Fix build warnings with -Wcast-function-type so that the option can later
be enabled by default for the kernel, from Kees Cook.
10) Fix libbpf to ignore STT_SECTION symbols in legacy map definitions as it
otherwise errors out when encountering them, from Toke Høiland-Jørgensen.
11) Teach libbpf to recognize specialized maps (such as for perf RB) and
internally remove BTF type IDs when creating them, from Hengqi Chen.
12) Various fixes and improvements to BPF selftests.

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.
