Make BPF trampoline attach its generated assembly code to kernel functions via register_ftrace_direct() API. It helps ftrace-based tracers co-exist with BPF trampoline on the same kernel function. It also switches attaching logic from arch specific text_poke to generic ftrace that is available on many architectures. text_poke is still necessary for bpf-to-bpf attach and for bpf_tail_call optimization.

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.
