cilium/ebpf v0.4.0

on GitHub

Breaking changes

• Map.Pin and Program.Pin only allow pinning to a single location on a BPFFS,
  repeated calls will move the pinned object rather than create additional pins.
  Clone the map or program if you need to pin to multiple paths.
• The API of bpf2go generated programs has changed.

Bug fixes

• bpf2go now passes -O2 and -mcpu=v1 to clang by default which means that
  programs should load out of the box.
• Fix iterating an empty sockmap.
• .data..percpu sections present in newer kernel BTF are now handled correctly.
• Non-static constants work now thanks to more robust ELF relocation handling.
• Various fixes to feature probes

Features

• Map and Program have gained Unpin which removes a previous Pin.
• BTF-style map definitions can now declare nested maps.
• EnableStats allows collecting global run time stats for Programs.
• Some Maps can now be modified using the Batch* methods.
• Programs now have a Tag function which allows calculating the kernel "tag"
  of a program.
• There is now a folder with examples
