Changelog:
v3 -> v4:
- in bpf_seq_read(), if start() failed with an error, return that
error to user space (Andrii)
- in bpf_seq_printf(), if reading kernel memory failed for
%s and %p{i,I}{4,6}, set buffer to empty string or address 0.
Documented this behavior in uapi header (Andrii)
- fix a few error handling issues for bpftool (Andrii)
- A few other minor fixes and cosmetic changes.
Looks great overall. Applied.
But few follow ups are necessary.
The main gotcha is that new tests need llvm with the fix
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__reviews.llvm.org_D78466&d=DwIBAg&c=5VD0RTtNlTh3ycd41b3MUw&r=DA8e1B5r073vIqRrFz7MRA&m=bCI_s36swhyaNaGGr3YQ0eQH9Lc-hpSGQy3u9fCRL9A&s=FLMd73HYbmZPnZrtCE9ntzg9e9eHOCioQbrt1w4sgWU&e= .
I think it was applied to llvm 10 branch already,
but please add selftests/bpf/README.rst and mention
that above llvm commit is necessary to successfully pass the tests.
Also mention the verifier error that folks will see when llvm is buggy.
Okay. Will have a followup patch for this.
Few other nits I noticed in relevant patches.
