[PATCH 5.10 050/509] libbpf: fix offsetof() and container_of() to work with CO-RE

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

 



From: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit bdeeed3498c7871c17465bb4f11d1bc67f9098af ]

It seems like __builtin_offset() doesn't preserve CO-RE field
relocations properly. So if offsetof() macro is defined through
__builtin_offset(), CO-RE-enabled BPF code using container_of() will be
subtly and silently broken.

To avoid this problem, redefine offsetof() and container_of() in the
form that works with CO-RE relocations more reliably.
