Subject: Re: [PATCH bpf-next v3 4/9] bpf: take the vmlinux BTF from the btf_vmlinux module
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2026 23:51:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261001235158.5109-1-wanjay@amazon.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <9faaf7e8ce215ae641225ac696e5ff94b2367b688d509fc9dde43df10a0b066f@mail.kernel.org>
Agreed on both, changed in v4 (patch 4/12):
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20261001225214.12351-1-wanjay@amazon.com/
Only -ENOMEM from btf_parse_vmlinux() is left uncached with =m; any other
failure is a broken BTF and is remembered as with =y, so it is parsed
once, not again by every later request. And /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux now
serves the raw bytes whenever btf_vmlinux.ko supplied them, whether they
parse or not, as with =y.
