Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2018-04-21 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. The main changes are: 1) Fix a deadlock between mm->mmap_sem and bpf_event_mutex when one task is detaching a BPF prog via perf_event_detach_bpf_prog() and another one dumping through bpf_prog_array_copy_info(). For the latter we move the copy_to_user() out of the bpf_event_mutex lock to fix it, from Yonghong. 2) Fix test_sock and test_sock_addr.sh failures. The former was hitting rlimit issues and the latter required ping to specify the address family, from Yonghong. 3) Remove a dead check in sockmap's sock_map_alloc(), from Jann. 4) Add generated files to BPF kselftests gitignore that were previously missed, from Anders. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
