Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 050/107] bpftool: Fix printing incorrect pointer in btf_dump_ptr
Date
From: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com>

[ Upstream commit 555089fdfc37ad65e0ee9b42ca40c238ff546f83 ]

For plain text output, it incorrectly prints the pointer value
"void *data". The "void *data" is actually pointing to memory that
contains a bpf-map's value. The intention is to print the content of
the bpf-map's value instead of printing the pointer pointing to the
bpf-map's value.

In this case, a member of the bpf-map's value is a pointer type.
Thus, it should print the "*(void **)data".
