Re: [PATCH 7/8] tools lib bpf: fix maps resolution

Hi Eric,

Are you still working in this patch set?

Now I know why maps section is not a simple array
from a patch set from Joe Stringer:

https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg135088.html

So I think this patch is really useful.

Are you going to resend the whole patch set? If not, let me collect
this patch 7/8 into my local code base and send to Arnaldo
with my other patches.

Thank you.

It is not correct to assimilate the elf data of the maps section
to an array of map definition. In fact the sizes differ. The
offset provided in the symbol section has to be used instead.

This patch fixes a bug causing a elf with two maps not to load
correctly.
