[PATCH 1/2] perf test: Add libbpf relocation checker

From: Wang Nan
Date: Fri Jan 22 2016 - 04:28:40 EST


There's a bug in LLVM that it can generate unneeded relocation
information. See [1] and [2]. Libbpf should check the target section
of a relocation symbol.

This patch adds a testcase which reference a global variable (BPF
doesn't support global variable). Before fixing libbpf, the new test
case can be loaded into kernel, the global variable acts like the first
map. It is incorrect.

Result:
# ~/perf test BPF
37: Test BPF filter :
37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : Ok
37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Ok
37.3: Test BPF relocation checker : FAILED!

# ~/perf test -v BPF
...
