bpf_prog_pack causes build error with powerpc ppc64_defconfig: kernel/bpf/core.c:830:23: error: variably modified 'bitmap' at file scope 830 | unsigned long bitmap[BITS_TO_LONGS(BPF_PROG_CHUNK_COUNT)]; | ^~~~~~ This is because the marco expands as: unsigned long bitmap[((((((1UL) << (16 + __pte_index_size)) / (1 << 6))) \ + ((sizeof(long) * 8)) - 1) / ((sizeof(long) * 8)))]; where __pte_index_size is a global variable. Fix it by turning bitmap into a 0-length array.
