Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v9 18/23] libbpf: Carry the exception cleanup table through the light skeleton
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 00:51:31 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008075131.3008089-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008074959.2993751-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>
A light skeleton does not call bpf_prog_load(): its loader program
builds the attr itself, so a program loaded this way reached the kernel
without its table and was refused with "unreachable insn". Carry the
table the way func_info and line_info are carried: the records in the
loader's blob, the count and record size in the attr, and a relocation
for the blob's address.
Only a program with records grows the attr to cleanup_info_cnt, so light
skeletons without them are unchanged.
