Subject: [PATCH] bpf: define INT8_TYPE as signed char
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2024 09:23:55 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240314162355.22965-1-david.faust@oracle.com> (raw)

Change the BPF backend to define INT8_TYPE with an explicit sign, rather
than a plain char.  This is in line with other targets and removes the
risk of int8_t being affected by the signedness of the plain char type
of the host system.

Tested on x86_64-linux-gnu host for bpf-unknown-none.
Sanity checked compiling Linux kernel BPF selftests.

	* config/bpf/bpf.h (INT8_TYPE): Change to signed char.
