Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 0/1] docs/bpf: Add description of register liveness tracking algorithm
Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2023 20:23:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230130182400.630997-1-eddyz87@gmail.com> (raw)

An overview of the register tracking liveness algorithm.
Previous version posted here: [1].
This update includes fixes suggested by Andrii Nakryiko:
- wording corrected to use term "stack slot" instead of "stack spill";
- parentage chain diagram updated to show nil links for frame #1;
- added example for non-BPF_DW writes behavior;
- explanation in "Read marks propagation for cache hits" is reworked.
