Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening
Add documentation for eBPF helper functions to bpf.h user header file. This documentation can be parsed with the Python script provided in another commit of the patch series, in order to provide a RST document that can later be converted into a man page. The objective is to make the documentation easily understandable and accessible to all eBPF developers, including beginners. This patch contains descriptions for the following helper functions, all written by Daniel: - bpf_get_hash_recalc() - bpf_skb_change_tail() - bpf_skb_pull_data() - bpf_csum_update() - bpf_set_hash_invalid() - bpf_get_numa_node_id() - bpf_set_hash() - bpf_skb_adjust_room() - bpf_xdp_adjust_meta() v4: - bpf_skb_change_tail(): Clarify comment about invalidated verifier checks. - bpf_skb_pull_data(): Clarify the motivation for using this helper or bpf_skb_load_bytes(), on non-linear buffers. Fix RST formatting for *skb*. Clarify comment about invalidated verifier checks. - bpf_csum_update(): Fix description of checksum (entire packet, not IP checksum). Fix a typo: "header" instead of "helper". - bpf_set_hash_invalid(): Mention bpf_get_hash_recalc(). - bpf_get_numa_node_id(): State that the helper is not restricted to programs attached to sockets. - bpf_skb_adjust_room(): Clarify comment about invalidated verifier checks. - bpf_xdp_adjust_meta(): Clarify comment about invalidated verifier checks.

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.
