Daniel Borkmann 46a4a97063 Merge branch 'bpf-libbpf-cleanups'
Andrii Nakryiko says:

====================
This patch set's main goal is to teach bpf_object__open() (and its variants)
to automatically derive BPF program type/expected attach type from section
names, similarly to how bpf_prog_load() was doing it. This significantly
improves user experience by eliminating yet another
obvious-only-in-the-hindsight surprise, when using libbpf APIs.

There are a bunch of auxiliary clean-ups and improvements. E.g.,
bpf_program__get_type() and bpf_program__get_expected_attach_type() are added
for completeness and symmetry with corresponding setter APIs. Some clean up
and fixes in selftests/bpf are done as well.
====================

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.
