Subject: [RFC bpf-next 08/12] libbpf: Add btf__find_by_glob_kind function
Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2026 10:38:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260203093819.2105105-9-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260203093819.2105105-1-jolsa@kernel.org>
Adding btf__find_by_glob_kind function that returns array of
BTF ids that match given kind and allow/deny patterns.
int btf__find_by_glob_kind(const struct btf *btf, __u32 kind,
const char *allow_pattern,
const char *deny_pattern,
__u32 **__ids);
The __ids array is allocated and needs to be manually freed.
The pattern check is done by glob_match function.
