Hi,
I'm writing a test which exercise that function.
I can succesfully trigger a call to __bpf_core_types_are_compat() with
these calls:
bpf_core_type_id_kernel(struct sk_buff);
bpf_core_type_exists(struct sk_buff);
bpf_core_type_size(struct sk_buff);
but the kind will obviously be BTF_KIND_STRUCT.
I'm trying to do the same with kind BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO instead with:
void func_proto(int, unsigned int);
bpf_core_type_id_kernel(func_proto);
but I get a clang crash[1], while just checking the existence with:
typedef int (*func_proto_typedef)(struct sk_buff *);
bpf_core_type_exists(func_proto_typedef);
I don't reach even bpf_core_spec_match().
Which is a simple way to generate a BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO BTF field?
