[PATCH bpf-next 0/2] bpf: allocate extra memory for setsockopt hook buffer

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

 



Current setsockopt hook is limited to the size of the buffer that
user had supplied. Since we always allocate memory and copy the value
into kernel space, allocate just a little bit more in case BPF
program needs to override input data with a larger value.

The canonical example is TCP_CONGESTION socket option where
input buffer is a string and if user calls it with a short string,
BPF program has no way of extending it.

The tests are extended with TCP_CONGESTION use case.

Stanislav Fomichev (2):
  bpf: always allocate at least 16 bytes for setsockopt hook
  selftests/bpf: extend sockopt_sk selftest with TCP_CONGESTION use case
