====================
We are currently being somewhat inconsistent with the libbpf include paths,
which makes it difficult to move files from the kernel into an external
libbpf-using project without adjusting include paths.
Having the bpf/ subdir of $INCLUDEDIR in the include path has never been a
requirement for building against libbpf before, and indeed the libbpf pkg-config
file doesn't include it. So let's make all libbpf includes across the kernel
tree use the bpf/ prefix in their includes. Since bpftool skeleton generation
emits code with a libbpf include, this also ensures that those can be used in
existing external projects using the regular pkg-config include path.
This turns out to be a somewhat invasive change in the number of files touched;
however, the actual changes to files are fairly trivial (most of them are simply
made with 'sed'). The series is split to make the change for one tool subdir at
a time, while trying not to break the build along the way. It is structured like
this:
- Patch 1-3: Trivial fixes to Makefiles for issues I discovered while changing
the include paths.
- Patch 4-8: Change the include directives to use the bpf/ prefix, and updates
Makefiles to make sure tools/lib/ is part of the include path, but without
removing tools/lib/bpf
- Patch 9-11: Remove tools/lib/bpf from include paths to make sure we don't
inadvertently re-introduce includes without the bpf/ prefix.
Changelog:
v5:
- Combine the libbpf build rules in selftests Makefile (using Andrii's
suggestion for a make rule).
- Re-use self-tests libbpf build for runqslower (new patch 10)
- Formatting fixes
v4:
- Move runqslower error on missing BTF into make rule
- Make sure we don't always force a rebuild selftests
- Rebase on latest bpf-next (dropping patch 11)
v3:
- Don't add the kernel build dir to the runqslower Makefile, pass it in from
selftests instead.
- Use libbpf's 'make install_headers' in selftests instead of trying to
generate bpf_helper_defs.h in-place (to also work on read-only filesystems).
- Use a scratch builddir for both libbpf and bpftool when building in selftests.
- Revert bpf_helpers.h to quoted include instead of angled include with a bpf/
prefix.
- Fix a few style nits from Andrii
v2:
- Do a full cleanup of libbpf includes instead of just changing the
bpf_helper_defs.h include.

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.
