[v5,3/9] tracing/probes: Add a function to search a member of a struct/union
Commit Message
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Add btf_find_struct_member() API to search a member of a given data structure
or union from the member's name.
Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Reviewed-by: Alan Maguire <alan.maguire@oracle.com>
---
Changes in v3:
- Remove simple input check.
- Fix unneeded IS_ERR_OR_NULL() check for btf_type_by_id().
- Move the code next to btf_get_func_param().
- Use for_each_member() macro instead of for-loop.
- Use btf_type_skip_modifiers() instead of btf_type_by_id().
Changes in v4:
- Use a stack for searching in anonymous members instead of nested call.
Changes in v5:
- Move the generic functions into a new file, trace_btf.c, for avoiding
tree-merge conflict.
- Return anon_offset for calculating correct offset from root struct.

Where is this called as the above is 128 bytes, which is a bit large
for the stack. It may not be bad if it's not that generic of a
function. But if the stack is getting tight, this could still be an
issue.

OK, let me allocate an array then.
