[PATCH v3 0/3] btf_encoder: do not encode functions consuming packed structs on stack

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,
this is the v3 of the packed-struct-passed-on-stack series. This
revision follows on Ihor's comments on v2.

Signed-off-by: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <alexis.lothore@xxxxxxxxxxx>
---
Changes in v3:
- add uncertain param loc logic to saved_functions_combine to
  deduplicate functions
- remove unneeded call to class__infer_holes
- bring a userspace binary instead of a OoT kernel module for testing
- consolidate paths used in the new test
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250703-btf_skip_structs_on_stack-v2-0-4767e3ba10c9@xxxxxxxxxxx

Changes in v2:
- infer structs attributes
- skip function encoded if some consumed struct (passed on stack) is
  marked as packed
- add some tests in btf_functions.sh
- drop RFC prefix
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250618-btf_skip_structs_on_stack-v1-1-e70be639cc53@xxxxxxxxxxx

      btf_encoder: skip functions consuming packed structs passed by value on stack
      tests: add some tests validating skipped functions due to uncertain arg location
      gitignore: ignore all the test kmod build-related files
