[ Upstream commit 95acd8817e66d031d2e6ee7def3f1e1874819317 ] The BPF core/verifier is hard-coded to permit mixing bpf2bpf and tail calls for only x86-64. Change the logic to instead rely on a new weak function 'bool bpf_jit_supports_subprog_tailcalls(void)', which a capable JIT backend can override. Update the x86-64 eBPF JIT to reflect this.

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.
