Still, as I mentioned above, it's probably worth tolerating brokens gccs instead of spending time backporting this everywhere. And upgrading the CI machine will only paper over the issue. At a closer look, it looks weird to me that we have patchable_function_entry(5) in a common header. If this optimization is ever implemented for another architecture, a different number will be required. For simplicity, would it make sense to hide this under an #ifdef? Something like this (untested): #ifdef CONFIG_X86 #define BPF_DISPATCHER_ATTRIBUTES __attribute__((patchable_function_entry(5))) #else #define BPF_DISPATCHER_ATTRIBUTES #endif Best regards, Ilya
