[PATCH bpf-next 0/3] Clean up some standardization stuff

From: David Vernet
Date: Mon Aug 28 2023 - 12:00:53 EST


The Documentation/bpf/standardization subdirectory contains documents
that will be standardized with the IETF. There are a few things we can
do to clean it up:

- Move linux-notes.rst back to Documentation/bpf. It doesn't belong in
the standardization directory.
- Move ABI-specific verbiage from instruction-set.rst into a new abi.rst
document. This document will be expanded significantly over time. For
now, we just need to get anything describing ABI out of
instruction-set.rst.
- Say BPF instead of eBPF in our documents. It's just creating
confusion.

There is more we can and should do. For example, we should create a
maps.rst document that will be a proposed standard for cross platform
map types, and remove any relevant content from instruction-set.rst.
This can be done in a subsequent patch set.

bpf,docs: Move linux-notes.rst to root bpf docs tree
bpf,docs: Add abi.rst document to standardization subdirectory
