Wed Oct 30 15:59:44 UTC 2024 - Fredrik Lönnegren <fredrik.lonnegren@suse.com>

- update to 1.5.0:
  * libbpf can now open (but not load!) BPF objects of non-native endianness,
    enabling cross-architecture support for BPF skeleton generation and BPF
    object introspection
  * BPF skeleton will now auto-attach SEC(".struct_ops") maps as part of
    <skeleton>__attach() call
  * BPF kprobe session programs support (SEC("kprobe.session"))
  * allow specifying kernel module name for fentry/fexit BPF programs
    (SEC(fentry/module:function)
  * libbpf recognizes LIBBPF_LOG_LEVEL environment variable, which can be used
    to set default log verboseness
  * BPF ringbuf APIs that limit maximum number of consumed records at a time
    (ring_buffer__consume_n(), ring__consume_n())
  * distilled BTF support (btf__distill_base(), btf__relocate())
  * BPF link-based attachment of BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKMAP programs
    (bpf_program__attach_sockmap())
  * bpf_object__token_fd() API to fetch BPF token FD of a BPF object, if any
  * fixes for fetching syscall arguments on arm64, s390x, risc-v architectures
  * better GCC-BPF source code compatibility
  * __bpf_fastcall support for a few BPF helpers
  * __uptr annotation definition added to bpf/bpf_helpers.h API header
  * fixes and improvements around handling missing and nulled out struct_ops
    programs
  * fixed mmap()-ing logic for global data, fixing interop between generic
    bpf_object__open() APIs and BPF subskeletons
  * BPF skeleton backwards compatibility handling fixes
  * handle LTO-produced *.llvm.<hash> symbols better
  * feature detection fixes in the presence of BPF token inside user namespace
  * older kernels have broken PID filtering logic for multi-uprobes, libbpf now
    detects this and avoids the use of multi-uprobes for USDTs
  * fix accidental drop of FD_CLOEXEC flag during BPF map reuse
  * few BTF dumper formatting fixes
  * a few more small fixes all around.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Oct 30 15:29:42 UTC 2024 - Fredrik Lönnegren <fredrik.lonnegren@suse.com>

    subskeleton w.r.t. global data handling

    libbpf/libbpf/commit/d9f9fd5b22223ae69c62e083da6093d95a0db799
    which works around kernel-side bug with USDT PID filtering on
