Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== It's pretty common for applications to want to parse raw (binary) BTF data from file, as opposed to parsing it from ELF sections. It's also pretty common for tools to not care whether given file is ELF or raw BTF format. This patch series exposes internal raw BTF parsing API and adds generic variant of BTF parsing, which will efficiently determine the format of a given fail and will parse BTF appropriately. Patches #2 and #3 removes re-implementations of such APIs from bpftool and resolve_btfids tools. ==================== 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.
