[PATCH v5 net-next 17/29] bpf: split eBPF out of NET

From: Alexei Starovoitov <hidden>
Date: 2014-08-24 20:22:33
Also in: lkml, netdev
Subsystem: bpf [core], bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

let eBPF have its own CONFIG_BPF, so that tracing and other subsystems don't
need to depend on all of NET
