It seems like __builtin_offset() doesn't preserve CO-RE field
relocations properly. So if offsetof() macro is defined through
__builtin_offset(), CO-RE-enabled BPF code using container_of() will be
subtly and silently broken.
To avoid this problem, redefine offsetof() and container_of() in the
form that works with CO-RE relocations more reliably.

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.
