Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2018-03-03 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) Extend bpftool to build up CFG information of eBPF programs and add an option to dump this in DOT format such that this can later be used with DOT graphic tools (xdot, graphviz, etc) to visualize it. Part of the analysis performed is sub-program detection and basic-block partitioning, from Jiong. 2) Multiple enhancements for bpftool's batch mode, more specifically the parser now understands comments (#), continuation lines (\), and arguments enclosed between quotes. Also, allow to read from stdin via '-' as input file, all from Quentin. 3) Improve BPF kselftests by i) unifying the rlimit handling into a helper that is then used by all tests, and ii) add support for testing tail calls to test_verifier plus add tests covering all corner cases. The latter is especially useful for testing JITs, from Daniel. 4) Remove x64 JIT's bpf_flush_icache() since flush_icache_range() is a noop on x64, from Daniel. 5) Fix one more occasion in BPF samples where we do not detach the BPF program from the cgroup after completion, from Prashant. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
