[PATCH v2 2/8] bpf: allow helpers to return PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It's currently not possible to access timewait or request sockets
from eBPF, since there is no way to return a PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON
from a helper. Introduce RET_PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON to enable this
behaviour.
