bpf: Use a table to drive helper arg type checks
The mapping between bpf_arg_type and bpf_reg_type is encoded in a big hairy if statement that is hard to follow. The debug output also leaves to be desired: if a reg_type doesn't match we only print one of the options, instead printing all the valid ones. Convert the if statement into a table which is then used to drive type checking. If none of the reg_types match we print all options, e.g.: R2 type=rdonly_buf expected=fp, pkt, pkt_meta, map_value Signed-off-by: Lorenz Bauer <lmb@cloudflare.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20200921121227.255763-12-lmb@cloudflare.com
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.
