Shall we hide > them in .c files or prefix/postfix them with _libbpf or something? Keep in mind, this is the header that's included from BPF code. They are prefixed with three underscores, I was hoping it's good enough to avoid accidental conflicts. It's unlikely someone will have macros with the same names **in BPF-side code**. Prefixing with _libbpf is an option, but it will make it super ugly and hard to follow (I've spent a bunch of time to even get it to the current state), so I'd like to avoid that. > > Thanks, > Song >
