There's a bug in LLVM that it can generate unneeded relocation information. See [1] and [2]. Libbpf should check the target section of a relocation symbol. This patch adds a testcase which references a global variable (BPF doesn't support global variables). Before fixing libbpf, the new test case can be loaded into kernel, the global variable acts like the first map. It is incorrect. Result: # ~/perf test BPF 37: Test BPF filter : 37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : Ok 37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Ok 37.3: Test BPF relocation checker : FAILED! # ~/perf test -v BPF ... libbpf: loading object '[bpf_relocation_test]' from buffer libbpf: section .strtab, size 126, link 0, flags 0, type=3 libbpf: section .text, size 0, link 0, flags 6, type=1 libbpf: section .data, size 0, link 0, flags 3, type=1 libbpf: section .bss, size 0, link 0, flags 3, type=8 libbpf: section func=sys_write, size 104, link 0, flags 6, type=1 libbpf: found program func=sys_write libbpf: section .relfunc=sys_write, size 16, link 10, flags 0, type=9 libbpf: section maps, size 16, link 0, flags 3, type=1 libbpf: maps in [bpf_relocation_test]: 16 bytes libbpf: section license, size 4, link 0, flags 3, type=1 libbpf: license of [bpf_relocation_test] is GPL libbpf: section version, size 4, link 0, flags 3, type=1 libbpf: kernel version of [bpf_relocation_test] is 40400 libbpf: section .symtab, size 144, link 1, flags 0, type=2 libbpf: map 0 is "my_table" libbpf: collecting relocating info for: 'func=sys_write' libbpf: relocation: insn_idx=7 Success unexpectedly: libbpf error when dealing with relocation test child finished with -1 ---- end ---- Test BPF filter subtest 2: FAILED!
