Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 1/6] libbpf: introduce kflag for type_tags and decl_tags in BTF
Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2025 12:12:34 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250130201239.1429648-2-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250130201239.1429648-1-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev>
Add the following functions to libbpf API:
* btf__add_type_attr()
* btf__add_decl_attr()
These functions allow to add to BTF the type tags and decl tags with
info->kflag set to 1. The kflag indicates that the tag directly
encodes an __attribute__ and not a normal tag.
See Documentation/bpf/btf.rst changes in the subsequent patch for
details on the semantics.
