Libbpf eBPF macro ___bpf_fill
The ___bpf_fill macros is used to fill an array with variadic arguments.
Definition
#define ___bpf_fill0(arr, p, x) do {} while (0)
#define ___bpf_fill1(arr, p, x) arr[p] = x
#define ___bpf_fill2(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill1(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill3(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill2(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill4(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill3(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill5(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill4(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill6(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill5(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill7(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill6(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill8(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill7(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill9(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill8(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill10(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill9(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill11(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill10(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill12(arr, p, x, args...) arr[p] = x; ___bpf_fill11(arr, p + 1, args)
#define ___bpf_fill(arr, args...) \
___bpf_apply(___bpf_fill, ___bpf_narg(args))(arr, 0, args)
Usage
This macro is mostly used by other Libbpf macros to turn variadic arguments into an array.
Example
Here the ___bpf_fill macro is used by the BPF_SEQ_PRINTF macro to turn the list of arguments given to the macro into an array so it can be passed to the bpf_seq_printf helper.
#define BPF_SEQ_PRINTF(seq, fmt, args...) \
({ \
static const char ___fmt[] = fmt; \
unsigned long long ___param[___bpf_narg(args)]; \
\
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic push") \
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic ignored \"-Wint-conversion\"") \
___bpf_fill(___param, args); \
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic pop") \
\
bpf_seq_printf(seq, ___fmt, sizeof(___fmt), \
___param, sizeof(___param)); \
})
