Linux kernel source tree

Add ability to specify a network interface used to resolve XDP hints kfuncs when loading program through bpftool. Usage: bpftool prog load [...] xdpmeta_dev <ifname> Writing just 'dev <ifname>' instead of 'xdpmeta_dev' is a very probable mistake that results in not very descriptive errors, so 'bpftool prog load [...] dev <ifname>' syntax becomes deprecated, followed by 'bpftool map create [...] dev <ifname>' for consistency. Now, to offload program, execute: bpftool prog load [...] offload_dev <ifname> To offload map: bpftool map create [...] offload_dev <ifname> 'dev <ifname>' still performs offloading in the commands above, but now triggers a warning and is excluded from bash completion. 'xdpmeta_dev' and 'offload_dev' are mutually exclusive options, because 'xdpmeta_dev' basically makes a program device-bound without loading it onto the said device. For now, offloaded programs cannot use XDP hints [0], but if this changes, using 'offload_dev <ifname>' should cover this case.

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.
