Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v14 7/8] libbpf: Add syscall common attributes support for map_create
Date: Tue, 12 May 2026 23:31:56 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260512153157.28382-8-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260512153157.28382-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev>
With the previous commit adding common attribute support for
BPF_MAP_CREATE, users can now retrieve detailed error messages when map
creation fails via the log_buf field.
Introduce struct bpf_log_opts with the following fields:
log_buf, log_size, log_level, and log_true_size.
Extend bpf_map_create_opts with a new field log_opts, allowing users to
capture and inspect log messages on map creation failures.
Acked-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
