From 37f05601eabc29f82c03b461a22d8fafacd736d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrii Nakryiko Date: Thu, 6 May 2021 22:41:13 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] bpftool: Strip const/volatile/restrict modifiers from .bss and .data vars Similarly to .rodata, strip any const/volatile/restrict modifiers when generating BPF skeleton. They are not helpful and actually just get in the way.
