func CheckStructAlignments ¶

func CheckStructAlignments(pathToObj string, toCheck map[string][]any, checkOffsets bool) error

CheckStructAlignments defaultChecks whether size and offsets match of the given C and Go structs which are listed in the given toCheck map (C type name => Go type).

C struct layout is extracted from the given ELF object file's BTF info.

To find a matching C struct field, a Go field has to be tagged with `align:"field_name_in_c_struct". In the case of unnamed union field, such union fields can be referred with special tags - `align:"$union0"`, `align:"$union1"`, etc.

func CheckStructAlignmentsDefault ¶ added in v1.5.0

func CheckStructAlignmentsDefault(pathToObj string) error

CheckStructAlignmentsDefault calls CheckStructAlignments with the default alignment defaultChecks.
