Linux kernel source tree
a9b59159d3
To ensure btf_ctx_access() is safe the verifier checks that the BTF
arg type is an int, enum, or pointer. When the function does the
BTF arg lookup it uses the calculation 'arg = off / 8' using the
fact that registers are 8B. This requires that the first arg is
in the first reg, the second in the second, and so on. However,
for __int128 the arg will consume two registers by default LLVM
implementation. So this will cause the arg layout assumed by the
'arg = off / 8' calculation to be incorrect.
Because __int128 is uncommon this patch applies the easiest fix and
will force int types to be sizeof(u64) or smaller so that they will
fit in a single register.
v2: remove unneeded parens per Andrii's feedback

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.
