Subject: [PATCH] bpf: add allocation annotations to functions
Date: Sat,  2 Aug 2025 09:01:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250802160117.30534-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)

In commit 80da7efbb4c4 ("eal: annotate allocation functions")
helper macros were added to provide compiler information to
detect misuse of alloc/free combinations. This covered many
of the functions in DPDK but missed the case of data allocated
by BPF load functions.
