The check is here to make sure we only run this hook on non-req sockets.
Dropping it would mean we'd be running the hook on the listeners
instead. I don't think we want that.
You are correct that we don't want to run the code on listeners. However
the check for that is in the function this macro calls,
__cgroup_bpf_run_filter_skb (the check is on line 1367 of
kernel/bpf/cgroup.c, for 6.8.0-rc3). The check doesn't need to be done
twice, so it can be removed in this macro.
Maybe we should instead remove "(!sk || !sk_fullsock(sk))" check from
__cgroup_bpf_run_filter_skb? BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_INET_EGRESS makes
care of all those corner conditions. We just need to add those checks to
BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_INET_INGRESS.
Let me also CC Kui-Feng, he was touching this part recently in commit
223f5f79f2ce ("bpf, net: Check skb ownership against full socket.").
Adding those checks in BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_INET_INGRESS makes sense
to me if the point here is saving CPU cycles during runtime.
