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.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2020-07-31 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. We've added 5 non-merge commits during the last 21 day(s) which contain a total of 5 files changed, 126 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-). The main changes are: 1) Fix a map element leak in HASH_OF_MAPS map type, from Andrii Nakryiko. 2) Fix a NULL pointer dereference in __btf_resolve_helper_id() when no btf_vmlinux is available, from Peilin Ye. 3) Init pos variable in __bpfilter_process_sockopt(), from Christoph Hellwig. 4) Fix a cgroup sockopt verifier test by specifying expected attach type, from Jean-Philippe Brucker. Note that when net gets merged into net-next later on, there is a small merge conflict in kernel/bpf/btf.c between commit 5b801dfb ("bpf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in __btf_resolve_helper_id()") from the bpf tree and commit 138b9a05 ("bpf: Remove btf_id helpers resolving") from the net-next tree. Resolve as follows: remove the old hunk with the __btf_resolve_helper_id() function. Change the btf_resolve_helper_id() so it actually tests for a NULL btf_vmlinux and bails out: int btf_resolve_helper_id(struct bpf_verifier_log *log, const struct bpf_func_proto *fn, int arg) { int id; if (fn->arg_type[arg] != ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID || !btf_vmlinux) return -EINVAL; id = fn->btf_id[arg]; if (!id || id > btf_vmlinux->nr_types) return -EINVAL; return id; } Let me know if you run into any others issues (CC'ing Jiri Olsa so he's in the loop with regards to merge conflict resolution). ==================== Signed-off-by:David S.
