Subject: How to avoid compilation errors like "error: no member named xxx in strut xxx"?
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2021 12:06:18 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <756efe9a-a237-e5d1-17fc-47936e76dacc@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
I am trying to write a bpf program that supports multiple linux kernel
versions. However, there are some differences in the definition of
struct net in these multiple kernel versions.
Therefore, when we include a certain kernel version of vmlinux.h, the
compilation error "error: no member named'proc_inum' in strut net" will
appear.
However, when we include another kernel version of vmlinux.h, the
compilation will appear "error: no member named'ns.inum' in strut net".
Anakryiko mentioned in the issue of libbpf/libbpf-bootstrap: vmlinux.h
is just a convenient way to have most of kernel types defined for you,
so that you don't have to re-define them manually. Link here: https:
//github.com/libbpf/libbpf-bootstrap/issues/31#issuecomment-861035643
But struct net is a very huge structure, and it may be very difficult to
add it manually. So, how can we avoid compilation errors like "error: no
member named'xxx' in xxx"
