[PATCH] lib/bpf: Fix btf_load error lead to enable debug log

From: Feng zhou <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-28 09:33:39

From: Feng Zhou <redacted>

Use tc with no verbose, when bpf_btf_attach fail,
the conditions:
"if (fd < 0 && (errno == ENOSPC || !ctx->log_size))"
will make ctx->log_size != 0. And then, bpf_prog_attach,
ctx->log_size != 0. so enable debug log.
The verifier log sometimes is so chatty on larger programs.
bpf_prog_attach is failed.
"Log buffer too small to dump verifier log 16777215 bytes (9 tries)!"

BTF load failure does not affect prog load. prog still work.
So when BTF/PROG load fail, enlarge log_size and re-fail with
having verbose.

Sorry, this patch is wrong. please ignore it. I will send a new one.
