[PATCH bpf-next v6 7/9] libbpf: Resolve invalid weak kfunc calls with imm = 0, off = 0

From: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <memxor@gmail.com>
Date: 2021-09-30 06:30:17
Also in: bpf
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [library] (libbpf), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

Preserve these calls as it allows verifier to succeed in loading the
program if they are determined to be unreachable after dead code
elimination during program load. If not, the verifier will fail at
runtime. This is done for ext->is_weak symbols similar to the case for
variable ksyms.

Acked-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
