[PATCH bpf-next v2] selftests/bpf: Fix compilation errors: assign a value to a constant

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Rong Tao <rongtao@xxxxxxxx>

commit bc292ab00f6c("mm: introduce vma->vm_flags wrapper functions")
turns the vm_flags into a const variable.

Added bpf_find_vma test in commit f108662b27c9("selftests/bpf: Add tests
for bpf_find_vma") to assign values to variables that declare const in
find_vma_fail1.c programs, which is an error to the compiler and does not
test BPF verifiers. It is better to replace 'const vm_flags_t vm_flags'
with 'unsigned long vm_start' for testing.

    $ make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf/ -j8
    ...
    progs/find_vma_fail1.c:16:16: error: cannot assign to non-static data
    member 'vm_flags' with const-qualified type 'const vm_flags_t' (aka
    'const unsigned long')
            vma->vm_flags |= 0x55;
            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^
    ../tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/include/vmlinux.h:1898:20:
    note: non-static data member 'vm_flags' declared const here
                    const vm_flags_t vm_flags;
                    ~~~~~~~~~~~`~~~~~~^~~~~~~~
