Linux kernel source tree
025dceb0fa
Once the JITed images for each function in a multi-function program
are generated after the first three JIT passes, we only need to fix
the target address for the branch instruction corresponding to each
bpf-to-bpf function call.
This introduces the following optimizations for reducing the work
done by the JIT compiler when handling multi-function programs:
[1] Instead of doing two extra passes to fix the bpf function calls,
do just one as that would be sufficient.
[2] During the extra pass, only overwrite the instruction sequences
for the bpf-to-bpf function calls as everything else would still
remain exactly the same. This also reduces the number of writes
to the JITed image.
[3] Do not regenerate the prologue and the epilogue during the extra
pass as that would be redundant.

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.
