Now that all of the logic is in place in the kernel to support user-space produced ring buffers, we can add the user-space logic to libbpf. This patch therefore adds the following public symbols to libbpf: struct user_ring_buffer * user_ring_buffer__new(int map_fd, const struct user_ring_buffer_opts *opts); void *user_ring_buffer__reserve(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, __u32 size); void *user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, __u32 size, int timeout_ms); void user_ring_buffer__submit(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, void *sample); void user_ring_buffer__discard(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, void user_ring_buffer__free(struct user_ring_buffer *rb); A user-space producer must first create a struct user_ring_buffer * object with user_ring_buffer__new(), and can then reserve samples in the ring buffer using one of the following two symbols: void *user_ring_buffer__reserve(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, __u32 size); void *user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking(struct user_ring_buffer *rb, __u32 size, int timeout_ms); With user_ring_buffer__reserve(), a pointer to a 'size' region of the ring buffer will be returned if sufficient space is available in the buffer. user_ring_buffer__reserve_blocking() provides similar semantics, but will block for up to 'timeout_ms' in epoll_wait if there is insufficient space in the buffer. This function has the guarantee from the kernel that it will receive at least one event-notification per invocation to bpf_ringbuf_drain(), provided that at least one sample is drained, and the BPF program did not pass the BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP flag to bpf_ringbuf_drain(). Once a sample is reserved, it must either be committed to the ring buffer with user_ring_buffer__submit(), or discarded with user_ring_buffer__discard().

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.
