John Fastabend says: ==================== This allows a sockmap sk_skb verdict programs to run without a parser. For some use cases, such as verdict program that support streaming data or a l3/l4 proxy that does not use data in packet, loading the nop parser 'return skb->len' is an extra unnecessary complexity. With this series we simply call the verdict program directly from data_ready instead of bouncing through the strparser logic. Patches 1,2 do the lifting on the sockmap side then patches 3,4 add the selftests. This applies on top of the series here, sockmap/sk_skb program memory acct fixes https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/?series=206975 it will apply without the above series cleanly, but will have an incorrect memory accounting causing a failure in ./test_sockmap. I could have left it so the series passed without above series, but it seemed odd to have it out there and then require yet another patch to fix it up here. Thanks. --- ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
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.
