Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ftrace/selftests: Fix regex pattern to match vmlinux symbol names only
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 18:58:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <24e1b434124b2ae34482f4eed1f6bc51fa73419a.1787670777.git.agordeev@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787670777.git.agordeev@linux.ibm.com>
Commit 1870ddcd94b0 ("bpf: Prefer vmlinux symbols over module symbols
for unqualified kprobes") changed unqualified kprobe lookup to prefer
a unique vmlinux symbol even when modules export symbols with the same
name.
Reflect this change in the test and anchor the grep pattern at the end
of the line so it only counts vmlinux symbols and skips module ones.
