The objective actually is to have SPDX tags in all files in the kernel. That includes documentation, even though people, as always, care less about the docs than they do the code.right, but let's do that as a separate patch set. In the current set I'd focus on reviewing the actual doc changes. In particular completely removing Documentation/networking/filter.txt feels wrong, since lots of websites point directly there. Can we have at least few words there pointing to new location?Something like ... ------------ filter.txt BPF documentation can now be found in the following places: - Introduction to BPF (Linux Socket Filter) - Documentation/userspace-api/socket-filter.rst - Classic BPF (cBPF) - Documentation/userspace-api/cBPF.rst - Internal BPF (eBPF) - Documentation/userspace-api/eBPF.rst
Internal ? that was the name we used for may be a month many years ago. Please use 'extended BPF' in new filter.txt and all other places. since merge window is open the patches would need to wait until bpf-next opens up in few weeks. Thanks
