Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v8 10/11] selftests/bpf: Provide weak definitions for cross-test functions
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 20:45:11 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428-selftests-bpf_misconfig-v8-10-bf02cf97dbcb@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260428-selftests-bpf_misconfig-v8-0-bf02cf97dbcb@suse.com>

Some test files reference functions defined in other translation units that
may not be compiled when skeletons are missing. Replace forward
declarations of uprobe_multi_func_{1,2,3}() with weak no-op stubs so the
linker resolves them regardless of which objects are present.

Move stack_mprotect() from test_lsm.c into testing_helpers.c so it is
always available. The previous weak-stub approach returned 0, which would
cause callers expecting -1/EPERM to fail their assertions
deterministically. Having the real implementation in a shared utility
avoids this problem entirely.
