[PATCH bpf 1/2] bpf: bpf_probe_read_kernel_str() has to return amount of data read on success

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

 



During recent refactorings, bpf_probe_read_kernel_str() started returning 0 on
success, instead of amount of data successfully read. This majorly breaks
applications relying on bpf_probe_read_kernel_str() and bpf_probe_read_str()
and their results. Fix this by returning actual number of bytes read.
