Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 1/6] resolve_btfids: Deduplicate BTF after btf2btf transformations
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 16:06:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805230648.2354989-2-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805230648.2354989-1-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev>
btf2btf() adds new types to the BTF: the KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS transform
synthesizes an _impl FUNC together with its FUNC_PROTO and copies of the
kfunc's decl tags. Nothing deduplicates them afterwards. pahole runs
btf__dedup() on its own output, but that happens before resolve_btfids
sees the BTF, so any type the tool itself creates is emitted as-is, even
when a structurally identical type is already present.
Call btf__dedup() at the start of finalize_btf(), so that base
distillation and the by-name sort both operate on the canonical set of
types.
