Subject: [PATCH] bpf: Track contents of read-only maps as scalars
Date: Sat, 21 Aug 2021 17:31:07 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210821203108.215937-1-rafaeldtinoco@gmail.com> (raw)
During tracee-ebpf regression tests, it was discovered that a CO-RE capable
eBPF program, that relied on a kconfig BTF extern, could not be loaded with
the following error:
libbpf: prog 'tracepoint__raw_syscalls__sys_enter': failed to attach to raw
tracepoint 'sys_enter': Invalid argument
That happened because the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER variable had the
wrong value, despite kconfig map existing, misleading the eBPF program
execution (which would then have different pointers, not accepted by the
verifier during load time).
I got the patch proposed here by bisecting upstream tree with the testcase
just described. I kindly ask you to include this patch in the LTS v5.4.x
series so CO-RE (Compile Once - Run Everywhere) eBPF programs, relying in
kconfig settings, can be correctly loaded in kernel series v5.4.

I have tested latest 5.4 stable tree with this patch and it fixes the issue.
