Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/2] libbpf: support "module:function" syntax for tracing programs
Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2024 14:17:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1714133551.git.vmalik@redhat.com> (raw)

In some situations, it is useful to explicitly specify a kernel module
to search for a tracing program target (e.g. when a function of the same
name exists in multiple modules or in vmlinux).

This change enables that by allowing the "module:function" syntax for
the find_kernel_btf_id function. Thanks to this, the syntax can be used
both from a SEC macro (i.e. `SEC(fentry/module:function)`) and via the
bpf_program__set_attach_target API call.
