Zvi Effron says: ==================== This patchset adds support for passing an xdp_md via ctx_in/ctx_out in bpf_attr for BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN of XDP programs. Patch 1 adds a function to validate XDP meta data lengths. Patch 2 adds initial support for passing XDP meta data in addition to packet data. Patch 3 adds support for also specifying the ingress interface and rx queue. Patch 4 adds selftests to ensure functionality is correct.

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.
