Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== This set is next part of a quest to get rid of the bpf_load ELF loader. It fixes some minor issues with the samples and starts the conversion. First patch fixes ping invocations, ping localhost defaults to IPv6 on modern setups. Next load_sock_ops sample is removed and users are directed towards using bpftool directly. Patch 4 removes the use of bpf_load from samples which don't need the auto-attachment functionality at all. Patch 5 improves symbol counting in libbpf, it's not currently an issue but it will be when anyone adds a symbol with a long name. Let's make sure that person doesn't have to spend time scratching their head and wondering why .a and .so symbol counts don't match. v2: - specify prog_type where possible (Andrii). ==================== Acked-by: Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
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.
