Linux kernel source tree

Add macros implementing an 'assert' statement primitive using macros, built on top of the BPF exceptions support introduced in previous patches. The bpf_assert_*_with variants allow supplying a value which can the be inspected within the exception handler to signify the assert statement that led to the program being terminated abruptly, or be returned by the default exception handler. Note that only 64-bit scalar values are supported with these assertion macros, as during testing I found other cases quite unreliable in presence of compiler shifts/manipulations extracting the value of the right width from registers scrubbing the verifier's bounds information and knowledge about the value in the register. Thus, it is easier to reliably support this feature with only the full register width, and support both signed and unsigned variants. The bpf_assert_range is interesting in particular, which clamps the value in the [begin, end] (both inclusive) range within verifier state, and emits a check for the same at runtime.

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.
