    ====================
    pull-request: bpf-next 2018-08-13
    
    The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
    
    The main changes are:
    
    1) Add driver XDP support for veth. This can be used in conjunction with
       redirect of another XDP program e.g. sitting on NIC so the xdp_frame
       can be forwarded to the peer veth directly without modification,
       from Toshiaki.
    
    2) Add a new BPF map type REUSEPORT_SOCKARRAY and prog type SK_REUSEPORT
       in order to provide more control and visibility on where a SO_REUSEPORT
       sk should be located, and the latter enables to directly select a sk
       from the bpf map. This also enables map-in-map for application migration
       use cases, from Martin.
    
    3) Add a new BPF helper bpf_skb_ancestor_cgroup_id() that returns the id
       of cgroup v2 that is the ancestor of the cgroup associated with the
       skb at the ancestor_level, from Andrey.
    
    4) Implement BPF fs map pretty-print support based on BTF data for regular
       hash table and LRU map, from Yonghong.
    
    5) Decouple the ability to attach BTF for a map from the key and value
       pretty-printer in BPF fs, and enable further support of BTF for maps for
       percpu and LPM trie, from Daniel.
    
    6) Implement a better BPF sample of using XDP's CPU redirect feature for
       load balancing SKB processing to remote CPU. The sample implements the
       same XDP load balancing as Suricata does which is symmetric hash based
       on IP and L4 protocol, from Jesper.
    
    7) Revert adding NULL pointer check with WARN_ON_ONCE() in __xdp_return()'s
       critical path as it is ensured that the allocator is present, from Björn.
