USDT ELF note optionally can record an offset of .stapsdt.base, which is
used to make adjustments to USDT target attach address. Currently,
libbpf will do this address adjustment unconditionally if it finds
.stapsdt.base ELF section in target binary. But there is a corner case
where .stapsdt.base ELF section is present, but specific USDT note
doesn't reference it. In such case, libbpf will basically just add base
address and end up with absolutely incorrect USDT target address.
This adjustment has to be done only if both .stapsdt.sema section is
present and USDT note is recording a reference to it.

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.
