Re: [PATCH bpf-next v3 3/6] bpf: Add IPv6 Segment Routing helpers

I'm not sure what would be the best approach here. These errors appear
when CONFIG_IPV6=m and CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_LWTUNNEL=y (which is bool and
depends on IPv6, hence it is also modularized in this case), then
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_LWTUNNEL) returns true, even though the
seg6_* symbols are not available when linking vmlinux. If I'm correct,
since net/core/filter.c is always built-in, all functions it uses must
also be built-in.

I didn't find any other dependency from net/core/filter.c using a
feature which can be modularized, hence the only solution I see here
is to create a new bool CONFIG variable, e.g. CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_BPF,
which would require CONFIG_IPV6=y and CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_LWTUNNEL=y. I
could then replace my #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_LWTUNNEL)
conditions by #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_BPF) in
net/core/filter.c.

Any comment on this ?

Thanks.
