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.

Compression is implemented using the functions from zstd.c. As the memory to operate on the compression uses mmap->data buffer. If Zstd streaming compression API fails for some reason the data to be compressed are just copied into the memory buffers using plain memcpy(). Compressed trace frame consists of an array of PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED records. Each element of the array is not longer that PERF_SAMPLE_MAX_SIZE and consists of perf_event_header followed by the compressed chunk that is decompressed on the loading stage. Comitter notes: Undo some unnecessary line breaks, remove some unnecessary () around zstd_data to then just get its address, and fix conflicts with BPF_PROG_INFO/BPF_BTF patchkits.
