bpftool: Fix dependencies for static build

bpftool: Fix truncated netlink dumps

2026-02-26T23:01:32+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3b39d73cc3379360a33eb583b17f21fe55e1288e ] Netlink requires that the recv buffer used during dumps is at least min(PAGE_SIZE, 8k) (see the man page). Otherwise the messages will get truncated. Make sure bpftool follows this requirement, avoid missing information on systems with large pages.

bpftool: Fix build warnings due to MS extensions

2025-12-10T07:21:33+00:00

The kernel is now built with -fms-extensions. Anonymous structs or unions permitted by these extensions have been used in several places, and can end up in the generated vmlinux.h file, for example: struct ns_tree { [...] }; [...] struct ns_common { [...] union { struct ns_tree; struct callback_head ns_rcu; }; }; Trying to include this header for compiling a tool may result in build warnings, if the compiler does not expect these extensions. This is the case, for example, with bpftool: In file included from skeleton/pid_iter.bpf.c:3: .../tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/build/bpftool/vmlinux.h:64057:3: warning: declaration does not declare anything [-Wmissing-declarations] 64057 | struct ns_tree; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fix these build warnings in bpftool by turning on Microsoft extensions when compiling the two BPF programs that rely on vmlinux.h.

bpftool: Allow bpftool to build with openssl < 3

2025-11-24T18:00:16+00:00

ERR_get_error_all()[1] is a openssl v3 API, so to make code compatible with openssl v1 utilize ERR_get_err_line_data instead. Since openssl is already a build requirement for the kernel (minimum requirement openssl 1.0.0), this will allow bpftool to compile where opensslv3 is not available. Signing-related BPF selftests pass with openssl v1.

bpf: add _impl suffix for bpf_stream_vprintk() kfunc

2025-11-05T01:50:25+00:00

Rename bpf_stream_vprintk() to bpf_stream_vprintk_impl(). This makes bpf_stream_vprintk() follow the already established "_impl" suffix-based naming convention for kfuncs with the bpf_prog_aux argument provided by the verifier implicitly. This convention will be taken advantage of with the upcoming KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS feature to preserve backwards compatibility to BPF programs.

bpftool: Fix missing closing parethesis for BTF_KIND_UNKN

2025-10-28T16:00:55+00:00

In the btf_dumper_do_type function, the debug print statement for BTF_KIND_UNKN was missing a closing parenthesis in the output format. This patch adds the missing ')' to ensure proper formatting of the dump output.

bpftool: Add bash completion for program signing options

2025-09-23T19:28:33+00:00

Commit 40863f4d6ef2 ("bpftool: Add support for signing BPF programs") added new options for "bpftool prog load" and "bpftool gen skeleton". This commit brings the relevant update to the bash completion file. We rework slightly the processing of options to make completion more resilient for options that take an argument.
