Selftests are reporting this failure in test_lwt_seg6local.sh:
+ ip netns exec ns2 ip -6 route add fb00::6 encap bpf in obj test_lwt_seg6local.o sec encap_srh dev veth2
Error fetching program/map!
Failed to parse eBPF program: Operation not permitted
The problem is __attribute__((always_inline)) alone is not enough to prevent
clang from inserting those functions in .text. In that case, .text is not
marked as relocateable.
See the output of objdump -h test_lwt_seg6local.o:
Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn
0 .text 00003530 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000040 2**3
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
This causes the iproute bpf loader to fail in bpf_fetch_prog_sec:
bpf_has_call_data returns true but bpf_fetch_prog_relo fails as there's no
relocateable .text section in the file.
To fix this, convert to 'static __always_inline'.
v2: Use 'static __always_inline' instead of 'static inline
__attribute__((always_inline))'

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.
