[PATCH bpf-next 2/3] libbpf: API to access btf_dump emit queue and print single type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add several API functions to allow more flexibility with btf dump:
- int btf_dump__order_type(struct btf_dump *d, __u32 id);
  adds a type and all it's dependencies to the emit queue
  in topological order;
- struct btf_dump_emit_queue_item *btf_dump__emit_queue(struct btf_dump *d);
  __u32 btf_dump__emit_queue_cnt(struct btf_dump *d);
  provide access to the emit queue owned by btf_dump object;
- int btf_dump__dump_one_type(struct btf_dump *d, __u32 id, bool fwd);
  prints a given type in C format (skipping any dependencies).

This API should allow to do the following on the libbpf client side:
- filter printed types using arbitrary criteria;
- add arbitrary type attributes or pre-processor statements for
  selected types.

This is a follow-up to the following discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240503111836.25275-1-jose.marchesi@xxxxxxxxxx/
