LLVM upstream commit https://reviews.llvm.org/D102712 made some changes to bpf relocations to make them llvm linker lld friendly. The scope of existing relocations R_BPF_64_{64,32} is narrowed and new relocations R_BPF_64_{ABS32,ABS64,NODYLD32} are introduced. Let us add some documentation about llvm bpf relocations so people can understand how to resolve them properly in their respective tools.

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.
