From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Split CO-RE processing logic from libbpf into separate file with an interface that doesn't dependend on libbpf internal details. As the next step relo_core.c will be compiled with libbpf and with the kernel. The _internal_ interface between libbpf/CO-RE and kernel/CO-RE will be: int bpf_core_apply_relo_insn(const char *prog_name, struct bpf_insn *insn, int insn_idx, const struct bpf_core_relo *relo, int relo_idx, const struct btf *local_btf, struct bpf_core_cand_list *cands); where bpf_core_relo and bpf_core_cand_list are simple types prepared by kernel and libbpf. Though diff stat shows a lot of lines inserted/deleted they are moved lines. Pls review with diff.colorMoved. Alexei Starovoitov (4): libbpf: Cleanup the layering between CORE and bpf_program. libbpf: Split bpf_core_apply_relo() into bpf_program indepdent helper. libbpf: Move CO-RE types into relo_core.h. libbpf: Split CO-RE logic into relo_core.c.LGTM. Applied to bpf-next, fixed typo in patch 3 subject, and also made few adjustments. Let me know if you object to any of them: 1. I felt like the original copyright year should be preserved when moving code into a new file, so I've changed relo_core.h's year to 2019. Hope that's fine. 2. relo_core.c didn't have a Copyright line, so I added the /* Copyright (c) 2019 Facebook */ as well. 3. I trimmed down the list of #includes in core_relo.c, because most of them were absolutely irrelevant and just preserved as-is from libbpf.c Everything seems to compile just fine without those.
Thanks! Much appreciate it. It was on my todo list. I lazily copy-pasted them to avoid accidental breakage on some archs that I don't have access to (since I didn't wait for the kernel build bot to process them before I sent them). fyi intel folks can include your private tree as well, so you'd have to respin your patches due to odd 32-bit build breakage. Just email them with your git tree location.
