binutils changed the signature of init_disassemble_info(), which now causes
compilation to fail for tools/bpf/bpf_jit_disasm.c, e.g. on debian
unstable.
Relevant binutils commit:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=60a3da00bd5407f07
Wire up the feature test and switch to init_disassemble_info_compat(),
which were introduced in prior commits, fixing the compilation failure.
I verified that bpf_jit_disasm can still disassemble bpf programs, both
with the old and new dis-asm.h API. With old binutils there's no change in
output before/after this patch. When comparing the output from old
binutils (2.35) to new bintuils with the patch (upstream snapshot) there
are a few output differences, but they are unrelated to this patch. An
example hunk is:
f4: mov %r14,%rsi
f7: mov %r15,%rdx
fa: mov $0x2a,%ecx
- ff: callq 0xffffffffea8c4988
+ ff: call 0xffffffffea8c4988
104: test %rax,%rax
107: jge 0x0000000000000110
109: xor %eax,%eax
- 10b: jmpq 0x0000000000000073
+ 10b: jmp 0x0000000000000073
110: cmp $0x16,%rax
However, I had to use an older kernel to generate the bpf_jit_enabled =
2 output, as that has been broken since 5.18 /

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
