[for-next][PATCH 03/16] selftests/bpf: Add test for tracepoint btf_ids tracefs file
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Tue Jul 28 2026 - 20:08:57 EST
From: Mykyta Yatsenko <yatsenko@xxxxxxxx>
Read events/bpf_testmod/bpf_testmod_test_read/btf_ids and verify the
exported FUNC_PROTO matches the testmod tracepoint signature
(__data, struct task_struct *task, struct bpf_testmod_test_read_ctx
*ctx) and the record struct trace_event_raw_bpf_testmod_test_read
carries the fields declared by TP_STRUCT__entry.
Use the testmod tracepoint so the test exercises the module/split-BTF
path (btf_relocate_id) rather than vmlinux only, and falls back from
/sys/kernel/tracing to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing when tracefs is not
mounted at the new location.
