LLVM14 added support for a new C attribute ([1])
__attribute__((btf_tag("arbitrary_str")))
This attribute will be emitted to dwarf ([2]) and pahole
will convert it to BTF. Or for bpf target, this
attribute will be emitted to BTF directly ([3], [4]).
The attribute is intended to provide additional
information for
- struct/union type or struct/union member
- static/global variables
- static/global function or function parameter.
For linux kernel, the btf_tag can be applied
in various places to specify user pointer,
function pre- or post- condition, function
allow/deny in certain context, etc. Such information
will be encoded in vmlinux BTF and can be used
by verifier.
The btf_tag can also be applied to bpf programs
to help global verifiable functions, e.g.,
specifying preconditions, etc.
This patch added basic parsing and checking support
in kernel for new BTF_KIND_TAG kind.
