[ Upstream commit c504e5c2f9648a1e5c2be01e8c3f59d394192bd3 ] Introduce the interface kfree_skb_reason(), which is able to pass the reason why the skb is dropped to 'kfree_skb' tracepoint. Add the 'reason' field to 'trace_kfree_skb', therefor user can get more detail information about abnormal skb with 'drop_monitor' or eBPF. All drop reasons are defined in the enum 'skb_drop_reason', and they will be print as string in 'kfree_skb' tracepoint in format of 'reason: XXX'. ( Maybe the reasons should be defined in a uapi header file, so that user space can use them? ) Signed-off-by: Menglong Dong <imagedong@tencent.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@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.
