Merge branch 'bpf-ring-buffer'
Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== Implement a new BPF ring buffer, as presented at BPF virtual conference ([0]). It presents an alternative to perf buffer, following its semantics closely, but allowing sharing same instance of ring buffer across multiple CPUs efficiently. Most patches have extensive commentary explaining various aspects, so I'll keep cover letter short. Overall structure of the patch set: - patch #1 adds BPF ring buffer implementation to kernel and necessary verifier support; - patch #2 adds libbpf consumer implementation for BPF ringbuf; - patch #3 adds selftest, both for single BPF ring buf use case, as well as using it with array/hash of maps; - patch #4 adds extensive benchmarks and provide some analysis in commit message, it builds upon selftests/bpf's bench runner. - patch #5 adds most of patch #1 commit message as a doc under Documentation/bpf/ringbuf.rst. Litmus tests, validating consumer/producer protocols and memory orderings, were moved out as discussed in [1] and are going to be posted against -rcu tree and put under Documentation/litmus-tests/bpf-rb.
