bpf_helpers_doc.py: Fix warning when compiling bpftool

2020-03-13T19:53:40Z

When compiling bpftool the following warning is found: "declaration of 'struct bpf_pidns_info' will not be visible outside of this function." This patch adds struct bpf_pidns_info to type_fwds array to fix this.

libbpf: Clean up bpf_helper_defs.h generation output

2020-01-14T01:48:13Z

bpf_helpers_doc.py script, used to generate bpf_helper_defs.h, unconditionally emits one informational message to stderr. Remove it and preserve stderr to contain only relevant errors. Also make sure script invocations command is muted by default in libbpf's Makefile.

scripts/bpf: Print an error when known types list needs updating

2019-10-21T01:21:21Z

Don't generate a broken bpf_helper_defs.h header if the helper script needs updating because it doesn't recognize a newly added type. Instead print an error that explains why the build is failing, clean up the partially generated header and stop. v1->v2: - Switched from temporary file to .DELETE_ON_ERROR.

bpf: fix script for generating man page on BPF helpers

2019-05-12T23:12:45Z

The script broke on parsing function prototype for bpf_strtoul(). This is because the last argument for the function is a pointer to an "unsigned long". The current version of the script only accepts "const" and "struct", but not "unsigned", at the beginning of argument types made of several words. One solution could be to add "unsigned" to the list, but the issue could come up again in the future (what about "long int"?). It turns out we do not need to have such restrictions on the words: so let's simply accept any series of words instead.

bpf: change eBPF helper doc parsing script to allow for smaller indent

2018-05-17T15:34:43Z

Documentation for eBPF helpers can be parsed from bpf.h and eventually turned into a man page. Commit 6f96674dbd8c ("bpf: relax constraints on formatting for eBPF helper documentation") changed the script used to parse it, in order to allow for different indent style and to ease the work for writing documentation for future helpers. The script currently considers that the first tab can be replaced by 6 to 8 spaces. But the documentation for bpf_fib_lookup() uses a mix of tabs (for the "Description" part) and of spaces ("Return" part), and only has 5 space long indent for the latter. We probably do not want to change the values accepted by the script each time a new helper gets a new indent style. However, it is worth noting that with those 5 spaces, the "Description" and "Return" part *look* aligned in the generated patch and in `git show`, so it is likely other helper authors will use the same length. Therefore, allow for helper documentation to use 5 spaces only for the first indent level. Signed-off-by: Quentin Monnet Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann
