Commit Message

James Hilliard Aug. 5, 2022, 8:17 a.m. UTC
The current bpf_helper_defs.h helpers are llvm specific and don't work
correctly with gcc.

GCC requires kernel helper funcs to have the following attribute set:
__attribute__((kernel_helper(NUM)))

Generate gcc compatible headers based on the format in bpf-helpers.h.

This leaves the bpf_helper_defs.h entirely unchanged and generates a
fully separate GCC compatible bpf_helper_defs_attr.h header file
which is conditionally included if the GCC kernel_helper attribute
is supported.

This adds GCC attribute style kernel helpers in bpf_helper_defs_attr.h:
	void *bpf_map_lookup_elem(void *map, const void *key) __attribute__((kernel_helper(1)));

	long bpf_map_update_elem(void *map, const void *key, const void *value, __u64 flags) __attribute__((kernel_helper(2)));

See:
https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/releases/gcc-12.1.0/gcc/config/bpf/bpf-helpers.h#L24-L27

This fixes the following build error:
error: indirect call in function, which are not supported by eBPF

Changes v3 -> v4:
  - don't modify bpf_helper_defs.h
  - generate bpf_helper_defs_attr.h for GCC
  - check __has_attribute(kernel_helper) for selecting GCC defs
Changes v2 -> v3:
  - use a conditional helper macro
Changes v1 -> v2:
  - more details in commit log

Great job ignoring the feedback.
Applied.
Just kidding.
