When loading with libbpf I'm getting some BTF loading errors. Adding this doesn't solve the problem, but is looks like I should add it anyhow. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com>
This is still getting rejected when loading BTF. Last error is: [12] Invalid kind:13 Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com>

It believe it now actually works, as it was a issue in libbpf that
caused the BTF code to get rejected on load. You can view, comment on,

So no issue on the kernel side? We are currently recommending people to
use 4.20 or higher when running the tutorial...

BTF in the kernel tree have moved away from In kernel v5.5 it will be placed in: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_legacy.h
We should instead have a tutorial that uses the new BTF method... but AFAIK it depends on LLVM version 9, which is not adopted by many distros ...yet. |
|
Yeah, the lack of LLVM9 is a problem; we also want to use the new BTF syntax for map pinning. Should we just tell people to install it? :) |
|
@tohojo, with LLVM9 you also won't need pahole for BTF generation, so that's a double win: you can get rid of a good chunk of sample Makefile ;) |
|
In lack of places to put this, let me link a really advanced example by @chaudron We unfortunately have to wait for a LLVM release to use this in the tutorial... |
|
My plan is to drop this PR, and create a new one based on LLVM9 and use the new ELF-maps style as an example. I also want to detect the LLVM version, to give users a more clear expectations when compiling the example. |
