Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 0/6] Add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support
Date: Sat, 20 Feb 2021 04:49:53 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210220034959.27006-1-iii@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Some BPF programs compiled on s390 fail to load, because s390
arch-specific linux headers contain float and double types.
Introduce support for such types by representing them using the new
BTF_KIND_FLOAT. This series deals with libbpf, bpftool, in-kernel BTF
parser as well as selftests and documentation.
There are also pahole and LLVM parts:
* https://github.com/iii-i/dwarves/commit/btf-kind-float-v2
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D83289
but they should go in after the libbpf part is integrated.

v0: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210210030317.78820-1-iii@linux.ibm.com/
v0 -> v1: Per Andrii's suggestion, remove the unnecessary trailing u32.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210216011216.3168-1-iii@linux.ibm.com/
v1 -> v2: John noticed that sanitization corrupts BTF, because new and
old sizes don't match. Per Yonghong's suggestion, use a
modifier type (which has the same size as the float type) as
a replacement.
Per Yonghong's suggestion, add size and alignment checks to
the kernel BTF parser.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210219022543.20893-1-iii@linux.ibm.com/
v2 -> v3: Based on Yonghong's suggestions: Use BTF_KIND_CONST instead of
BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF and make sure that the C code generated from
the sanitized BTF is well-formed; fix size calculation in
tests and use NAME_TBD everywhere; limit allowed sizes to 2,
4, 8, 12 and 16 (this should also fix m68k and nds32le
builds).
Based on Alexei's feedback [1] I'm proceeding with the BTF_KIND_FLOAT
approach.
