From e668ac6506d3f45bf36b1f8463f62ce5e2776732 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Chaignon Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2021 22:45:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] bpftool: Enable line buffering for stdout [ Upstream commit 1a1a0b0364ad291bd8e509da104ac8b5b1afec5d ] The output of bpftool prog tracelog is currently buffered, which is inconvenient when piping the output into other commands. A simple tracelog | grep will typically not display anything. This patch fixes it by enabling line buffering on stdout for the whole bpftool binary.
