Craig Gallek b13c5c14db libbpf: parse maps sections of varying size
This library previously assumed a fixed-size map options structure.
Any new options were ignored.  In order to allow the options structure
to grow and to support parsing older programs, this patch updates
the maps section parsing to handle varying sizes.

Object files with maps sections smaller than expected will have the new
fields initialized to zero.  Object files which have larger than expected
maps sections will be rejected unless all of the unrecognized data is zero.

This change still assumes that each map definition in the maps section
is the same size.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
