From: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.151 commit f5f413cb3e8af235c5d310bea9942424fb242c2c category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6D0XM Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit a0b8200d06ad6450c179407baa5f0f52f8cfcc97 upstream. [small context changes due to missing floats support in 5.10] Commit "mm/page_alloc: convert per-cpu list protection to local_lock" will introduce a zero-sized per-CPU variable, which causes pahole to generate invalid BTF. Only pahole versions 1.18 through 1.21 are impacted, as before 1.18 pahole doesn't know anything about per-CPU variables, and 1.22 contains the proper fix for the issue. Luckily, pahole 1.18 got --skip_encoding_btf_vars option disabling BTF generation for per-CPU variables in anticipation of some unanticipated problems. So use this escape hatch to disable per-CPU var BTF info on those problematic pahole versions. Users relying on availability of per-CPU var BTFs would need to upgrade to pahole 1.22+, but everyone won't notice any regressions.
