Current BTF only supports 32-bit value. For example,
enum T { VAL = 0xffffFFFF00000008 };
the generated BTF looks like
.long 16 # BTF_KIND_ENUM(id = 4)
.long 100663297 # 0x6000001
.long 8
.long 18
.long 8
The encoded value is 8 which equals to (uint32_t)0xffffFFFF00000008
and this is incorrect.
This patch introduced BTF_KIND_ENUM64 which permits to encode
64-bit value. The format for each enumerator looks like:
.long name_offset
.long (uint32_t)value # lower-32 bit value
.long value >> 32 # high-32 bit value
We use two 32-bit values to represent a 64-bit value as current
BTF type subsection has 4-byte alignment and gaps are not permitted
in the subsection.
This patch also added support for kflag (the bit 31 of CommonType.Info)
such that kflag = 1 implies the value is signed and kflag = 0
implies the value is unsigned. The kernel UAPI enumerator definition is
struct btf_enum {
__u32 name_off;
__s32 val;
};
so kflag = 0 with unsigned value provides backward compatability.
With this patch, for
enum T { VAL = 0xffffFFFF00000008 };
the generated BTF looks like
.long 16 # BTF_KIND_ENUM64(id = 4)
.long 3187671053 # 0x13000001
.long 8
.long 18
.long 8 # 0x8
.long 4294967295 # 0xffffffff
and the enumerator value and signedness are encoded correctly.
