Remove the check for required and optional functions in a struct tcp_congestion_ops from bpf_tcp_ca.c. Rely on tcp_register_congestion_control() to reject a BPF CC that does not implement all required functions, as it will do for a non-BPF CC. When a CC implements tcp_congestion_ops.cong_control(), the alternate cong_avoid() is not in use in the TCP stack. Previously, a BPF CC was still forced to implement cong_avoid() as a no-op since it was non-optional in bpf_tcp_ca.c.

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.
