I'm happy to move bpf_sock_from_file to tracing_prog_func_proto if
you'd prefer that. I'm actually unsure what the difference would be,
those function names are confusing, but this works for our use-case. :)
However, by itself, that wouldn't address the problem reported by Randy
since the helper definition would still be compiled and have an
undefined reference to sock_from_file. The existing socket helpers (for
example skc_to_tcp_sock) can get away without a patch like mine because
they are defined in net/core/filter.c which only gets compiled with
CONFIG_NET.
I will send a v3 where I move the sock_from_file helper definition to
net/core/filter.c and also move the usage of the helper to
tracing_prog_func_proto under CONFIG_NET and then you can feel free to
merge v2 or v3 depending on which approach you prefer (or a followup
version if I mess up again... :D)
