This patch implements BTF types deduplication algorithm. It allows to greatly compress typical output of pahole's DWARF-to-BTF conversion or LLVM's compilation output by detecting and collapsing identical types emitted in isolation per compilation unit. Algorithm also resolves struct/union forward declarations into concrete BTF types representing referenced struct/union. If undesired, this resolution can be disabled through specifying corresponding options. Algorithm itself and its application to Linux kernel's BTF types is described in details at: https://facebookmicrosites.github.io/bpf/blog/2018/11/14/btf-enhancement.html Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> |

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.
