====================
Getting number of possible CPUs is commonly used for per-CPU BPF maps
and perf_event_maps. Add a new API libbpf_num_possible_cpus() that
helps user with per-CPU related operations and remove duplicate
implementations in bpftool and selftests.
v2: Save errno before calling pr_warning in case it is changed.
v3: Make sure libbpf_num_possible_cpus never returns 0 so that user only
has to check if ret value < 0.
v4: Fix error code when reading 0 bytes from possible CPU file.
v5: Fix selftests compliation issue.
v6: Split commit to reuse libbpf_num_possible_cpus() into two commits:
One commit to remove bpf_util.h from test BPF C programs.
One commit to reuse libbpf_num_possible_cpus() in bpftools
and bpf_util.h.

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.
