bpftool: Fix missing pids during link show
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Current 'bpftool link' command does not show pids, e.g.,
  $ tools/build/bpftool/bpftool link

Hack the following change to enable normal libbpf debug output,

Rerun the above bpftool command:

The 'file->private_data' returns a 'void' type and this caused subsequent 'link->type'
(insn #81) failed in verification.

To fix the issue, do a type cast from 'void *' to 'struct bpf_link *' for file->private_data
as in this patch, and the 'bpftool link' runs successfully with 'pids'.
  $ tools/build/bpftool/bpftool link
