Subject: [PATCH bpf v1] selftests/bpf: Use both hrtimer enqueue helpers in vmlinux test
Date: Thu, 7 May 2026 13:39:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507113915.24988-1-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev> (raw)
The vmlinux selftest triggers nanosleep and checks that both kprobe
and fentry programs observe the hrtimer enqueue path.
After the hrtimer_start_expires_user() conversion [1], nanosleep
reaches hrtimer_start_range_ns_user() instead of
hrtimer_start_range_ns(). Hard-coding either symbol makes the test
fail either on bpf tree or on linux-next [2].
Keep both hook variants as optional BPF programs and enable the pair
matching the running kernel before loading the object. This is also a
nice example of how to modify a BPF program to work on both older and
newer kernel revision.
