Alexei Starovoitov a23967c181 Merge branch 'bpf-tracing-multiprog-tp-query'
Yonghong Song says:

====================
Commit e87c6bc3852b ("bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments
for a single perf event") added support to attach multiple
bpf programs to a single perf event. Given a perf event
(kprobe, uprobe, or kernel tracepoint), the perf ioctl interface
is used to query bpf programs attached to the same trace event.

There already exists a BPF_PROG_QUERY command for introspection
currently used by cgroup+bpf. We did have an implementation for
querying tracepoint+bpf through the same interface. However, it
looks cleaner to use ioctl() style of api here, since attaching
bpf prog to tracepoint/kuprobe is also done via ioctl.

Patch #1 had the core implementation and patch #2 added
a test case in tools bpf selftests suite.

Changelogs:
v3 -> v4:
  - Fix a compilation error with newer gcc like 6.3.1 while
    old gcc 4.8.5 is okay. I was using &uquery->ids to represent
    the address to the ids array to make it explicit that the
    address is passed, and this syntax is rightly rejected
    by gcc 6.3.1.
v2 -> v3:
  - Change uapi structure perf_event_query_bpf to be more
    clearer based on Peter's suggestion, and adjust
    other codes accordingly.
v1 -> v2:
  - Rebase on top of net-next.
  - Use existing bpf_prog_array_length function instead of
    implementing the same functionality in function
    bpf_prog_array_copy_info.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
