This change documents the process for running the BPF CI before submitting a patch to the upstream mailing list, similar to what happens if a patch is send to bpf@vger.kernel.org: it builds kernel and selftests and runs the latter on different architecture (but it notably does not cover stylistic checks such as cover letter verification). Running BPF CI this way can help achieve better test coverage ahead of patch submission than merely running locally (say, using tools/testing/selftests/bpf/vmtest.sh), as additional architectures may be covered as well.

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.
