Instead of being a thin wrapper which calls into bpf_trace_printk, libbpf's bpf_printk convenience macro now chooses between bpf_trace_printk and bpf_trace_vprintk. If the arg count (excluding format string) is >3, use bpf_trace_vprintk, otherwise use the older helper. The motivation behind this added complexity - instead of migrating entirely to bpf_trace_vprintk - is to maintain good developer experience for users compiling against new libbpf but running on older kernels. Users who are passing <=3 args to bpf_printk will see no change in their bytecode. __bpf_vprintk functions similarly to BPF_SEQ_PRINTF and BPF_SNPRINTF macros elsewhere in the file - it allows use of bpf_trace_vprintk without manual conversion of varargs to u64 array. Previous implementation of bpf_printk macro is moved to __bpf_printk for use by the new implementation. This does change behavior of bpf_printk calls with >3 args in the "new libbpf, old kernels" scenario. On my system, using a clang built from recent upstream sources (14.0.0 https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git 50b62731452cb83979bbf3c06e828d26a4698dca), attempting to use 4 args to __bpf_printk (old impl) results in a compile-time error: progs/trace_printk.c:21:21: error: too many args to 0x6cdf4b8: i64 = Constant<6> trace_printk_ret = __bpf_printk("testing,testing %d %d %d %d\n", I was able to replicate this behavior with an older clang as well. When the format string has >3 format specifiers, there is no output to the trace_pipe in either case. After this patch, using bpf_printk with 4 args would result in a trace_vprintk helper call being emitted and a load-time failure on older kernels.
