The selftest failed to compile with clang-built bpf-next.
Adding LLVM=1 to your vmlinux and selftest build will use clang.
The error message is:
progs/test_sk_storage_tracing.c:38:18: error: use of undeclared identifier 'BPF_TCP_CLOSE'
if (newstate == BPF_TCP_CLOSE)
^
1 error generated.
make: *** [Makefile:423: /bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_sk_storage_tracing.o] Error 1
The reason for the failure is that BPF_TCP_CLOSE, a value of
an anonymous enum defined in uapi bpf.h, is not defined in
vmlinux.h. gcc does not have this problem. Since vmlinux.h
is derived from BTF which is derived from vmlinux DWARF,
that means gcc-produced vmlinux DWARF has BPF_TCP_CLOSE
while llvm-produced vmlinux DWARF does not have.
BPF_TCP_CLOSE is referenced in net/ipv4/tcp.c as
BUILD_BUG_ON((int)BPF_TCP_CLOSE != (int)TCP_CLOSE);
The following test mimics the above BUILD_BUG_ON, preprocessed
with clang compiler, and shows gcc DWARF contains BPF_TCP_CLOSE while
llvm DWARF does not.
$ cat t.c
enum {
BPF_TCP_ESTABLISHED = 1,
BPF_TCP_CLOSE = 7,
};
enum {
TCP_ESTABLISHED = 1,
TCP_CLOSE = 7,
};
int test() {
do {
extern void __compiletime_assert_767(void) ;
if ((int)BPF_TCP_CLOSE != (int)TCP_CLOSE) __compiletime_assert_767();
} while (0);
return 0;
}
$ clang t.c -O2 -c -g && llvm-dwarfdump t.o | grep BPF_TCP_CLOSE
$ gcc t.c -O2 -c -g && llvm-dwarfdump t.o | grep BPF_TCP_CLOSE
DW_AT_name ("BPF_TCP_CLOSE")
Further checking clang code find clang actually tried to
evaluate condition at compile time. If it is definitely
true/false, it will perform optimization and the whole if condition
will be removed before generating IR/debuginfo.
This patch explicited add an expression after the
above mentioned BUILD_BUG_ON in net/ipv4/tcp.c like
(void)BPF_TCP_ESTABLISHED
to enable generation of debuginfo for the anonymous
enum which also includes BPF_TCP_CLOSE.

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.
