Now that we can create a dynptr to skb metadata, make reads to the metadata area possible with bpf_dynptr_read() or through a bpf_dynptr_slice(), and make writes to the metadata area possible with bpf_dynptr_write() or through a bpf_dynptr_slice_rdwr(). Note that for cloned skbs which share data with the original, we limit the skb metadata dynptr to be read-only since we don't unclone on a bpf_dynptr_write to metadata.

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 reStructuredText 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.
