Yonghong Song says: ==================== Latest upstream llvm-project added support for btf_decl_tag attributes for typedef declarations ([1], [2]). Similar to other btf_decl_tag cases, func/func_param/global_var/struct/union/field, btf_decl_tag with typedef declaration can carry information from kernel source to clang compiler and then to dwarf/BTF, for bpf verification or other use cases. This patch set added kernel support for BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG to typedef declaration (Patch 1). Additional selftests are added to cover unit testing, dedup, or bpf program usage of btf_decl_tag with typedef. (Patches 2, 3 and 4). The btf documentation is updated to include BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG typedef (Patch 5).

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.
