[PATCH bpf-next v2] libbpf: support weak typed ksyms.

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

 



Currently weak typeless ksyms have default value zero, when they don't
exist in the kernel. However, weak typed ksyms are rejected by libbpf
if they can not be resolved. This means that if a bpf object contains
the declaration of a nonexistent weak typed ksym, it will be rejected
even if there is no program that references the symbol.

Nonexistent weak typed ksyms can also default to zero just like
typeless ones. This allows programs that access weak typed ksyms to be
accepted by verifier, if the accesses are guarded. For example,

extern const int bpf_link_fops3 __ksym __weak;

/* then in BPF program */

if (&bpf_link_fops3) {
   /* use bpf_link_fops3 */
}

If actual use of nonexistent typed ksym is not guarded properly,
verifier would see that register is not PTR_TO_BTF_ID and wouldn't
allow to use it for direct memory reads or passing it to BPF helpers.

Changes since v1:
 - Weak typed symbols default to zero, as suggested by Andrii.
 - Use ASSERT_XXX() for tets.
