Yeah, we even have this in tools/perf/util/symbol-elf.c: #ifndef HAVE_ELF_GETSHDRSTRNDX_SUPPORT static int elf_getshdrstrndx(Elf *elf __maybe_unused, size_t *dst __maybe_unused) { pr_err("%s: update your libelf to > 0.140, this one lacks elf_getshdrstrndx().\n", __func__); return -1; } #endif And a feature detection for that: [acme@five perf]$ cat tools/build/feature/test-libelf-getshdrstrndx.c // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 #include <libelf.h> int main(void) { size_t dst; return elf_getshdrstrndx(0, &dst); } [acme@five perf]$ Your implementation would provide a good fallback tho to avoid requiring updating to 0.140 :-) - Arnaldo > > + > > + if (!elf_rawdata(elf_getscn(elf, shstrndx), NULL)) { > > pr_warn("failed to get e_shstrndx from %s\n", path); > > goto done; > > } > > @@ -902,7 +912,7 @@ static struct btf *btf_parse_elf(const char *path, struct btf *base_btf, > > idx, path); > > goto done; > > } > > - name = elf_strptr(elf, ehdr.e_shstrndx, sh.sh_name); > > + name = elf_strptr(elf, shstrndx, sh.sh_name); > > if (!name) { > > pr_warn("failed to get section(%d) name from %s\n", > > idx, path); > > -- > > 2.27.0 > > -- - Arnaldo
