    ====================
    pull-request: bpf-next 2018-04-27
    
    The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
    
    The main changes are:
    
    1) Add extensive BPF helper description into include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
       and a new script bpf_helpers_doc.py which allows for generating a
       man page out of it. Thus, every helper in BPF now comes with proper
       function signature, detailed description and return code explanation,
       from Quentin.
    
    2) Migrate the BPF collect metadata tunnel tests from BPF samples over
       to the BPF selftests and further extend them with v6 vxlan, geneve
       and ipip tests, simplify the ipip tests, improve documentation and
       convert to bpf_ntoh*() / bpf_hton*() api, from William.
    
    3) Currently, helpers that expect ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_{KEY,VALUE} can only
       access stack and packet memory. Extend this to allow such helpers
       to also use map values, which enabled use cases where value from
       a first lookup can be directly used as a key for a second lookup,
       from Paul.
    
    4) Add a new helper bpf_skb_get_xfrm_state() for tc BPF programs in
       order to retrieve XFRM state information containing SPI, peer
       address and reqid values, from Eyal.
    
    5) Various optimizations in nfp driver's BPF JIT in order to turn ADD
       and SUB instructions with negative immediate into the opposite
       operation with a positive immediate such that nfp can better fit
       small immediates into instructions. Savings in instruction count
       up to 4% have been observed, from Jakub.
    
    6) Add the BPF prog's gpl_compatible flag to struct bpf_prog_info
       and add support for dumping this through bpftool, from Jiri.
    
    7) Move the BPF sockmap samples over into BPF selftests instead since
       sockmap was rather a series of tests than sample anyway and this way
       this can be run from automated bots, from John.
    
    8) Follow-up fix for bpf_adjust_tail() helper in order to make it work
       with generic XDP, from Nikita.
    
    9) Some follow-up cleanups to BTF, namely, removing unused defines from
       BTF uapi header and renaming 'name' struct btf_* members into name_off
       to make it more clear they are offsets into string section, from Martin.
    
    10) Remove test_sock_addr from TEST_GEN_PROGS in BPF selftests since
        not run directly but invoked from test_sock_addr.sh, from Yonghong.
    
    11) Remove redundant ret assignment in sample BPF loader, from Wang.
    
    12) Add couple of missing files to BPF selftest's gitignore, from Anders.
    
    There are two trivial merge conflicts while pulling:
    
      1) Remove samples/sockmap/Makefile since all sockmap tests have been
         moved to selftests.
      2) Add both hunks from tools/testing/selftests/bpf/.gitignore to the
         file since git should ignore all of them.
