selftests/ftrace: Fix unique symbol check in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tcgrafted
The current regex also matches symbols in modules, which makes the
test fail on s390 where name_show is present only once in the kernel,
but also multiple times in modules:
000001b1401cdc20 t name_show
000001b0c05e6c40 t name_show [mdev]
000001b0c0495f30 t name_show [i2c_core]
Fix this by changing the regular expression to only match the function
name.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +======================================== +Bare UDP Tunnelling Module Documentation +======================================== + +There are various L3 encapsulation standards using UDP being discussed to +leverage the UDP based load balancing capability of different networks. +MPLSoUDP (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7510) is one among them. + +The Bareudp tunnel module provides a generic L3 encapsulation support for +tunnelling different L3 protocols like MPLS, IP, NSH etc. inside a UDP tunnel. + +Special Handling +---------------- + +The bareudp device supports special handling for MPLS & IP as they can have +multiple ethertypes. +The MPLS protocol can have ethertypes ETH_P_MPLS_UC (unicast) & ETH_P_MPLS_MC (multicast). +IP protocol can have ethertypes ETH_P_IP (v4) & ETH_P_IPV6 (v6). +This special handling can be enabled only for ethertypes ETH_P_IP & ETH_P_MPLS_UC +with a flag called multiproto mode. + +Usage +------ + +1) Device creation & deletion + + a) ip link add dev bareudp0 type bareudp dstport 6635 ethertype mpls_uc + + This creates a bareudp tunnel device which tunnels L3 traffic with ethertype + 0x8847 (MPLS traffic).
