Series libbpf: rename btf__get_from_id() and btf__load() APIs, support split BTF | expand

Commit Message

Quentin Monnet July 21, 2021, 3:38 p.m. UTC
Replace the calls to deprecated function btf__get_from_id() with calls
to btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() in tools/ (bpftool, perf, selftests).
Update the surrounding code accordingly (instead of passing a pointer to
the btf struct, get it as a return value from the function). Also make
sure that btf__free() is called on the pointer after use.

v2:
- Given that btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() has changed since v1, adapt
  the code accordingly instead of just renaming the function. Also add a
  few calls to btf__free() when necessary.

why not do a simpler (less conditionals)

err = libbpf_get_error(btf);
if (err) {
    btf = ERR_PTR(err);
}

Because if btf is NULL at this stage, this would change the return value
from -ESRCH to NULL. This would be problematic in mapdump(), since we
check this value ("if (IS_ERR(btf))") to detect a failure in
get_map_kv_btf().

I could change that check in mapdump() to use libbpf_get_error()
instead, but in that case it would similarly change the return value for
mapdump() (and errno), which I think would be propagated up to main()
and would return 0 instead of -ESRCH. This does not seem suitable and
would play badly with batch mode, among other things.

So I'm considering keeping the one additional if.

I don't mind adding the tags, but do they have any advantage here? My
understanding is that they tend to be neon signs for backports to stable
branches, but this patch depends on btf__load_from_kernel_by_id(),
meaning more patches to pull. I'll see if I can move the btf__free()
fixes to a separate commit, maybe.

see my reply on previous patch. libbpf_get_error() handles this
transparently regardless of CLEAN_PTRS mode, as long as it is called
right after API call. So the above sample will work as you'd expect,
preserving errors.

Having Fixes: allows to keep track of where the issue originated. It
doesn't necessarily mean something has to be backported, as far as I
understand. So it's good to do regardless. Splitting fixes into a
separate patch works for me as well, but I don't care all that much
given they are small.

Right, it looks like I got confused on this one. I'll update it.

OK, thank you for the clarification :).
I'll keep a single patch in that case.
