Jiri Olsa says:

====================
this patchset adds trampoline and dispatcher objects
to be visible in /proc/kallsyms.

v5 changes:
  - keeping just 1 bpf_tree for all the objects and adding flag
    to recognize bpf_objects when searching for exception tables [Alexei]
  - no need for is_bpf_image_address call in kernel_text_address [Alexei]
  - removed the bpf_image tree, because it's no longer needed

v4 changes:
  - add trampoline and dispatcher to kallsyms once the it's allocated [Alexei]
  - omit the symbols sorting for kallsyms [Alexei]
  - small title change in one patch [Song]
  - some function renames:
     bpf_get_prog_name to bpf_prog_ksym_set_name
     bpf_get_prog_addr_region to bpf_prog_ksym_set_addr
  - added acks to changelogs
  - I checked and there'll be conflict on perftool side with
    upcoming changes from Adrian Hunter (text poke events),
    so I think it's better if Arnaldo takes the perf changes
    via perf tree and we will solve all conflicts there

v3 changes:
  - use container_of directly in bpf_get_ksym_start  [Daniel]
  - add more changelog explanations for ksym addresses [Daniel]

v2 changes:
  - omit extra condition in __bpf_ksym_add for sorting code (Andrii)
  - rename bpf_kallsyms_tree_ops to bpf_ksym_tree (Andrii)
  - expose only executable code in kallsyms (Andrii)
  - use full trampoline key as its kallsyms id (Andrii)
  - explained the BPF_TRAMP_REPLACE case (Andrii)
  - small format changes in bpf_trampoline_link_prog/bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog (Andrii)
  - propagate error value in bpf_dispatcher_update and update kallsym if it's successful (Andrii)
  - get rid of __always_inline for bpf_ksym_tree callbacks (Andrii)
  - added KSYMBOL notification for bpf_image add/removal
  - added perf tools changes to properly display trampoline/dispatcher

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.
