There exist some errors "404 Not Found" when I click the link of "MAINTAINERS" [1], "samples/bpf/" [2] and "selftests" [3] in the documentation "HOWTO interact with BPF subsystem" [4]. As Jesper Dangaard Brouer said, the links work if you are browsing the document via GitHub [5], so I think maybe it is better to use the corresponding GitHub links to fix the issues in the kernel.org official document [4], this change has no influence on GitHub and looks like more clear.No, we really don't want to link to GitHub, that's what we have kernel.org for.
I fully agree. I actually liked V3 better. Back when I wrote the documentation with these links, the BPF doc was not well integrated with the kernels doc-system. It is today, so it makes sense to remove the links (that happens to work on GitHub) as you did in V3. Today BPF documentation is nicely organized via this link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/bpf/index.html -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Principal Kernel Engineer at Red Hat LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer
