Currently, if a kfunc accepts a projection type as an argument (eg struct __sk_buff *), the caller must exactly provide exactly the same type with provable provenance. However in practice, kfuncs that accept projection types _must_ cast to the underlying type before use b/c projection type layouts are completely made up. Thus, it is ok to relax the verifier rules around implicit conversions. We will use this functionality in the next commit when we align kfuncs to user-facing types.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
