[PATCH bpf-next 0/2] bpftool/libbpf: Add probe for large INSN limit

From: Michal Rostecki
Date: Fri Dec 27 2019 - 07:21:57 EST


This series implements a new BPF feature probe which checks for the
commit c04c0d2b968a ("bpf: increase complexity limit and maximum program
size"), which increases the maximum program size to 1M. It's based on
the similar check in Cilium, althogh Cilium is already aiming to use
bpftool checks and eventually drop all its custom checks.

Examples of outputs:

# bpftool feature probe
[...]
Scanning miscellaneous eBPF features...
Large complexity limit and maximum program size (1M) is available

# bpftool feature probe macros
[...]
/*** eBPF misc features ***/
#define HAVE_HAVE_LARGE_INSN_LIMIT

# bpftool feature probe -j | jq '.["misc"]'
{
"have_large_insn_limit": true
}
