Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 2/3] bpftool: Update func representation to include function signature
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 10:52:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260925095231.879708-3-alan.maguire@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260925095231.879708-1-alan.maguire@oracle.com>
Augment func= output for LOCSEC entries to include a mapping from
function signature to where parameters are stored; for example:
[290179] LOCSEC 'inline.text' vlen=524941
func='task_pid_nr(tsk [reg0])' func_type_id=136691 loc_proto_type_id=136693 offset=2097226
func='get_current()' func_type_id=136694 loc_proto_type_id=136695 offset=2097247
func='arch_static_branch(key [address 0x2e275e8], branch [const 0x0])' func_type_id=136697 loc_proto_type_id=136700 offset=2097296
Fixes: 321562c34d5b ("bpftool: Add ability to dump LOC_PARAM, LOC_PROTO and LOCSEC")
Suggested-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
