Merge branch 'strip-mods-from-global-vars'
Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== Fix bpftool logic of stripping away const/volatile modifiers for all global variables during BPF skeleton generation. See patch #1 for details on when existing logic breaks and why it's important. Support special .strip_mods=true mode in btf_dump__emit_type_decl. Recent example of when this has caused problems can be found in [0]. [0] https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/pull/2994#issuecomment-650588533 ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
