2020-01-20	selftests: Use consistent include paths for libbpf	Toke Høiland-Jørgensen	1	-2/+2
	Fix all selftests to include libbpf header files with the bpf/ prefix, to be consistent with external users of the library. Also ensure that all includes of exported libbpf header files (those that are exported on 'make install' of the library) use bracketed includes instead of quoted. To not break the build, keep the old include path until everything has been changed to the new one; a subsequent patch will remove that.

2019-11-24	libbpf: Support initialized global variables	Andrii Nakryiko	1	-2/+2
	Initialized global variables are no different in ELF from static variables, and don't require any extra support from libbpf. But they are matching semantics of global data (backed by BPF maps) more closely, preventing LLVM/Clang from aggressively inlining constant values and not requiring volatile incantations to prevent those. This patch enables global variables. It still disables uninitialized variables, which will be put into special COM (common) ELF section, because BPF doesn't allow uninitialized data to be accessed.

2019-10-08	libbpf: Add BPF_CORE_READ/BPF_CORE_READ_INTO helpers	Andrii Nakryiko	1	-0/+1
	Add few macros simplifying BCC-like multi-level probe reads, while also emitting CO-RE relocations for each read.

2019-10-08	selftests/bpf: Adjust CO-RE reloc tests for new bpf_core_read() macro	Andrii Nakryiko	1	-2/+4
	To allow adding a variadic BPF_CORE_READ macro with slightly different syntax and semantics, define CORE_READ in CO-RE reloc tests, which is a thin wrapper around low-level bpf_core_read() macro, which in turn is just a wrapper around bpf_probe_read().
