[PATCH] bpf: Document cfi_stubs and owner fields in struct bpf_struct_ops
From: Nirbhay Sharma
Date: Wed Nov 19 2025 - 01:26:12 EST
Add missing kernel-doc documentation for the cfi_stubs and owner
fields in struct bpf_struct_ops to fix the following warnings:
Warning: include/linux/bpf.h:1931 struct member 'cfi_stubs' not
described in 'bpf_struct_ops'
Warning: include/linux/bpf.h:1931 struct member 'owner' not
described in 'bpf_struct_ops'
The cfi_stubs field was added in commit 2cd3e3772e41 ("x86/cfi,bpf:
Fix bpf_struct_ops CFI") to provide CFI stub functions for trampolines,
and the owner field is used for module reference counting.
