While testing this one I noticed a problem, but it isn't caused by this particular patch: [acme@five pahole]$ cp ~/git/build/v5.9-rc6+/net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.o . [acme@five pahole]$ readelf -SW tcp_ipv4.o | grep BTF [acme@five pahole]$ pahole -J tcp_ipv4.o [acme@five pahole]$ readelf -SW tcp_ipv4.o | grep BTF [105] .BTF PROGBITS 0000000000000000 0fbb3c 03f697 00 0 0 1 [acme@five pahole]$ ./btfdiff tcp_ipv4.o --- /tmp/btfdiff.dwarf.BDAvGi 2020-10-09 11:41:45.161509391 -0300 +++ /tmp/btfdiff.btf.p81icw 2020-10-09 11:41:45.177509720 -0300 @@ -4056,7 +4056,7 @@ struct tcp_congestion_ops { u32 (*min_tso_segs)(struct sock *); /* 96 8 */ u32 (*sndbuf_expand)(struct sock *); /* 104 8 */ void (*cong_control)(struct sock *, const struct rate_sample *); /* 112 8 */ - size_t (*get_info)(struct sock *, u32, int *, union tcp_cc_info *); /* 120 8 */ + size_t (*get_info)(struct sock *, u32, int *, struct tcp_cc_info *); /* 120 8 */ /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */ char name[16]; /* 128 16 */ struct module * owner; /* 144 8 */ [acme@five pahole]$ git log --oneline -5 ef4f971a9cf745fc (HEAD) dwarf_loader: Conditionally define DW_AT_alignment cc3f9dce3378280f pahole: Implement --packed 08f49262f474370a man-pages: Fix 'coimbine' typo fdc639188cb514e4 (tag: v1.18) dwarves: Prep v1.18 70c3e669709b6351 spec: Set the build type to 'Release' [acme@five pahole]$ And looking at the source code it is a union: include/net/tcp.h size_t (*get_info)(struct sock *sk, u32 ext, int *attr, union tcp_cc_info *info); So this tcp_cc_info isn't available in DWARF and thus isn't available in the resulting BTF: [acme@five pahole]$ pahole -F dwarf -C tcp_cc_info tcp_ipv4.o pahole: type 'tcp_cc_info' not found [acme@five pahole]$ pahole -F btf -C tcp_cc_info tcp_ipv4.o pahole: type 'tcp_cc_info' not found [acme@five pahole]$ If you look at /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux it is there: [acme@five pahole]$ pahole tcp_cc_info union tcp_cc_info { struct tcpvegas_info vegas; /* 0 16 */ struct tcp_dctcp_info dctcp; /* 0 16 */ struct tcp_bbr_info bbr; /* 0 20 */ }; [acme@five pahole]$ I.e. when encoding vmlinux we're good and for the BTF use case so far this is thus not a problem, will continue processing your patches and then later try to figure this out. For completeness when looking at tcp_congestion_ops using /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux, all is ok: [acme@five pahole]$ pahole tcp_congestion_ops struct tcp_congestion_ops { struct list_head list; /* 0 16 */ u32 key; /* 16 4 */ u32 flags; /* 20 4 */ void (*init)(struct sock *); /* 24 8 */ void (*release)(struct sock *); /* 32 8 */ u32 (*ssthresh)(struct sock *); /* 40 8 */ void (*cong_avoid)(struct sock *, u32, u32); /* 48 8 */ void (*set_state)(struct sock *, u8); /* 56 8 */ /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */ void (*cwnd_event)(struct sock *, enum tcp_ca_event); /* 64 8 */ void (*in_ack_event)(struct sock *, u32); /* 72 8 */ u32 (*undo_cwnd)(struct sock *); /* 80 8 */ void (*pkts_acked)(struct sock *, const struct ack_sample *); /* 88 8 */ u32 (*min_tso_segs)(struct sock *); /* 96 8 */ u32 (*sndbuf_expand)(struct sock *); /* 104 8 */ void (*cong_control)(struct sock *, const struct rate_sample *); /* 112 8 */ size_t (*get_info)(struct sock *, u32, int *, union tcp_cc_info *); /* 120 8 */ /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */ char name[16]; /* 128 16 */ struct module * owner; /* 144 8 */ /* size: 152, cachelines: 3, members: 18 */ /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */ }; [acme@five pahole]$ And a btfdiff on vmlinux also shows BTF and DWARF produce the same results: [acme@five pahole]$ cp ~/git/build/bpf-next-v5.9.0-rc8+/vmlinux .
