From: Dave Marchevsky <davemarchevsky@fb.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.7-rc1 commit f10ca5da5bd71e5cefed7995e75a7c873ce3816e category: feature bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/8335 CVE: NA Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Commit 6018e1f407cc ("bpf: implement numbers iterator") added the BTF_TYPE_EMIT line that this patch is modifying. The struct btf_iter_num doesn't exist, so only a forward declaration is emitted in BTF: FWD 'btf_iter_num' fwd_kind=struct That commit was probably hoping to ensure that struct bpf_iter_num is emitted in vmlinux BTF. A previous version of this patch changed the line to emit the correct type, but Yonghong confirmed that it would definitely be emitted regardless in [0], so this patch simply removes the line. This isn't marked "Fixes" because the extraneous btf_iter_num FWD wasn't causing any issues that I noticed, aside from mild confusion when I looked through the code.
