Alexei Starovoitov 6fe65f1b4d libbpf: Prepare light skeleton for the kernel.
Prepare light skeleton to be used in the kernel module and in the user space.
The look and feel of lskel.h is mostly the same with the difference that for
user space the skel->rodata is the same pointer before and after skel_load
operation, while in the kernel the skel->rodata after skel_open and the
skel->rodata after skel_load are different pointers.
Typical usage of skeleton remains the same for kernel and user space:
skel = my_bpf__open();
skel->rodata->my_global_var = init_val;
err = my_bpf__load(skel);
err = my_bpf__attach(skel);
// access skel->rodata->my_global_var;
// access skel->bss->another_var;

README

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.
