[PATCH 0/2] bpf: introduce helper for populating bpf_cpumask

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

 



Some BPF programs like scx schedulers have their own internal CPU mask types, 
mask types, which they must transform into struct bpf_cpumask instances
before passing them to scheduling-related kfuncs. There is currently no
way to efficiently populate the bitfield of a bpf_cpumask from BPF memory, 
and programs must use multiple bpf_cpumask_[set, clear] calls to do so. 
Introduce a kfunc helper to populate the bitfield of a bpf_cpumask from valid 
BPF memory with a single call.
