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.

bpf: Remove runqslower tool

2025-11-28T23:20:16+00:00

runqslower was added in commit 9c01546d26d2 "tools/bpf: Add runqslower tool to tools/bpf" as a BCC port to showcase early BPF CO-RE + libbpf workflows. runqslower continues to live in BCC (libbpf-tools), so there is no need to keep building and maintaining it. Drop tools/bpf/runqslower and remove all build hooks in tools/bpf and selftests accordingly.

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.
