When comparing two datasets, if either side is missing corresponding record with the same file and prog name, currently veristat emits misleading zeros/failures, and even tried to calculate a difference, even though there is no data to compare against. This patch improves internal logic of handling such situations. Now we'll emit "N/A" in places where data is missing and comparison is non-sensical. As an example, in an artificially truncated and mismatched Cilium results, the output looks like below: $ ./veristat -e file,prog,verdict,insns -C ~/base.csv ~/comp.csv File Program Verdict (A) Verdict (B) Verdict (DIFF) Insns (A) Insns (B) Insns (DIFF) ------------------ ------------------------------ ----------- ----------- -------------- --------- --------- -------------- bpf_alignchecker.o __send_drop_notify success N/A N/A 53 N/A N/A bpf_alignchecker.o tail_icmp6_handle_ns failure failure MATCH 33 33 +0 (+0.00%) bpf_alignchecker.o tail_icmp6_send_echo_reply N/A failure N/A N/A 74 N/A bpf_host.o __send_drop_notify success N/A N/A 53 N/A N/A bpf_host.o cil_from_host success N/A N/A 762 N/A N/A bpf_xdp.o __send_drop_notify success success MATCH 151 151 +0 (+0.00%) bpf_xdp.o cil_xdp_entry success success MATCH 423 423 +0 (+0.00%) bpf_xdp.o tail_handle_nat_fwd_ipv4 success success MATCH 21547 20920 -627 (-2.91%) bpf_xdp.o tail_handle_nat_fwd_ipv6 success success MATCH 16974 17039 +65 (+0.38%) bpf_xdp.o tail_lb_ipv4 success success MATCH 71736 73430 +1694 (+2.36%) bpf_xdp.o tail_lb_ipv6 N/A success N/A N/A 151895 N/A bpf_xdp.o tail_nodeport_ipv4_dsr N/A success N/A N/A 1162 N/A bpf_xdp.o tail_nodeport_ipv6_dsr N/A success N/A N/A 1206 N/A bpf_xdp.o tail_nodeport_nat_egress_ipv4 N/A success N/A N/A 15619 N/A bpf_xdp.o tail_nodeport_nat_ingress_ipv4 success success MATCH 7658 7713 +55 (+0.72%) bpf_xdp.o tail_nodeport_nat_ingress_ipv6 success success MATCH 6405 6397 -8 (-0.12%) bpf_xdp.o tail_nodeport_nat_ipv6_egress failure failure MATCH 752 752 +0 (+0.00%) bpf_xdp.o tail_rev_nodeport_lb4 success success MATCH 7126 6934 -192 (-2.69%) bpf_xdp.o tail_rev_nodeport_lb6 success success MATCH 17954 17905 -49 (-0.27%) ------------------ ------------------------------ ----------- ----------- -------------- --------- --------- -------------- Internally veristat now separates joining two datasets and remembering the join, and actually emitting a comparison view. This will come handy when we add support for filtering and custom ordering in comparison mode.

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.
