In order to support BPF-to-BPF calls in offloaded programs, the nfp driver must collect information about the distinct subprograms: namely, the number of subprograms composing the complete program and the stack depth of those subprograms. The latter in particular is non-trivial to collect, so we copy those elements from the kernel verifier via the newly added post-verification hook. The struct nfp_prog is extended to store this information. Stack depths are stored in an array of dedicated structs. Subprogram start indexes are not collected. Instead, meta instructions associated to the start of a subprogram will be marked with a flag in a later patch.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
