[PATCH RFC bpf-next 0/2] bpf: Enable bpf_skc_to_* sock casting helper to networking prog type

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

 



This set allows networking prog type to directly read fields from
the in-kernel socket type, e.g. "struct tcp_sock".

Patch 2 has the details on the use case.

It is currently under RFC since it needs proper tests and it builds on
top of Lorenz's patches: 
   https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20200910125631.225188-1-lmb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Martin KaFai Lau (2):
  bpf: Move the PTR_TO_BTF_ID check to check_reg_type()
  bpf: Enable bpf_skc_to_* sock casting helper to networking prog type
