Few minor improvements for bpf_cmp() macro:
. reduce number of args in __bpf_cmp()
. rename NOFLIP to UNLIKELY
. add a comment about 64-bit truncation in "i" constraint
. use "ri" constraint for sizeof(rhs) <= 4
. improve error message for bpf_cmp_likely()
Before:
progs/iters_task_vma.c:31:7: error: variable 'ret' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
31 | if (bpf_cmp_likely(seen, <==, 1000))
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../bpf/bpf_experimental.h:325:3: note: expanded from macro 'bpf_cmp_likely'
325 | ret;
| ^~~
progs/iters_task_vma.c:31:7: note: variable 'ret' is declared here
../bpf/bpf_experimental.h:310:3: note: expanded from macro 'bpf_cmp_likely'
310 | bool ret;
| ^
After:
progs/iters_task_vma.c:31:7: error: invalid operand for instruction
31 | if (bpf_cmp_likely(seen, <==, 1000))
| ^
../bpf/bpf_experimental.h:324:17: note: expanded from macro 'bpf_cmp_likely'
324 | asm volatile("r0 " #OP " invalid compare");
| ^
<inline asm>:1:5: note: instantiated into assembly here
1 | r0 <== invalid compare
| ^

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.
