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.

In some situations, it is useful to explicitly specify a kernel module to search for a tracing program target (e.g. when a function of the same name exists in multiple modules or in vmlinux). This patch enables that by allowing the "module:function" syntax for the find_kernel_btf_id function. Thanks to this, the syntax can be used both from a SEC macro (i.e. `SEC(fentry/module:function)`) and via the bpf_program__set_attach_target API call.
