From: Yonghong Song <yhs@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 4050764cbaa25760aab40857f723393c07898474 ] Latest llvm-project upstream had a change of behavior related to qualifiers on function return type ([1]). This caused selftests btf_dump/btf_dump failure. The following example shows what changed. $ cat t.c typedef const char * const (* const (* const fn_ptr_arr2_t[5])())(char * (*)(int)); struct t { int a; fn_ptr_arr2_t l; }; int foo(struct t *arg) { return arg->a; } Compiled with latest upstream llvm15, $ clang -O2 -g -target bpf -S -emit-llvm t.c The related generated debuginfo IR looks like: !16 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_typedef, name: "fn_ptr_arr2_t", file: !1, line: 1, baseType: !17) !17 = !DICompositeType(tag: DW_TAG_array_type, baseType: !18, size: 320, elements: !32) !18 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_const_type, baseType: !19) !19 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: !20, size: 64) !20 = !DISubroutineType(types: !21) !21 = !{!22, null} !22 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: !23, size: 64) !23 = !DISubroutineType(types: !24) !24 = !{!25, !28} !25 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: !26, size: 64) !26 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_const_type, baseType: !27) !27 = !DIBasicType(name: "char", size: 8, encoding: DW_ATE_signed_char) You can see two intermediate const qualifier to pointer are dropped in debuginfo IR. With llvm14, we have following debuginfo IR: !16 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_typedef, name: "fn_ptr_arr2_t", file: !1, line: 1, baseType: !17) !17 = !DICompositeType(tag: DW_TAG_array_type, baseType: !18, size: 320, elements: !34) !18 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_const_type, baseType: !19) !19 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: !20, size: 64) !20 = !DISubroutineType(types: !21) !21 = !{!22, null} !22 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_const_type, baseType: !23) !23 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: !24, size: 64) !24 = !DISubroutineType(types: !25) !25 = !{!26, !30} !26 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_const_type, baseType: !27) !27 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_pointer_type, baseType: !28, size: 64) !28 = !DIDerivedType(tag: DW_TAG_const_type, baseType: !29) !29 = !DIBasicType(name: "char", size: 8, encoding: DW_ATE_signed_char) All const qualifiers are preserved. To adapt the selftest to both old and new llvm, this patch removed the intermediate const qualifier in const-to-ptr types, to make the test succeed again.
