Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2018-10-08 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) sk_lookup_[tcp|udp] and sk_release helpers from Joe Stringer which allow BPF programs to perform lookups for sockets in a network namespace. This would allow programs to determine early on in processing whether the stack is expecting to receive the packet, and perform some action (eg drop, forward somewhere) based on this information. 2) per-cpu cgroup local storage from Roman Gushchin. Per-cpu cgroup local storage is very similar to simple cgroup storage except all the data is per-cpu. The main goal of per-cpu variant is to implement super fast counters (e.g. packet counters), which don't require neither lookups, neither atomic operations in a fast path. The example of these hybrid counters is in selftests/bpf/netcnt_prog.c 3) allow HW offload of programs with BPF-to-BPF function calls from Quentin Monnet 4) support more than 64-byte key/value in HW offloaded BPF maps from Jakub Kicinski 5) rename of libbpf interfaces from Andrey Ignatov. libbpf is maturing as a library and should follow good practices in library design and implementation to play well with other libraries. This patch set brings consistent naming convention to global symbols. 6) relicense libbpf as LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause from Alexei Starovoitov to let Apache2 projects use libbpf 7) various AF_XDP fixes from Björn and Magnus ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
