[PATCH bpf-next v1 1/5] bpf: Add ARG_SCALAR and ARG_CONSTANT

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

 



In the next patch, we will introduce a new helper 'bpf_packet_pointer'
that takes offset and len and returns a packet pointer. There we want to
statically enforce offset is in range [0, 0xffff], and that len is a
constant value, in range [1, 0xffff]. This also helps us avoid a
pointless runtime check. To make these checks possible, we need to
ensure we only get a scalar type. Although a lot of other argument types
take scalars, their intent is different. Hence add general ARG_SCALAR
and ARG_CONSTANT types, where the latter is also checked to be constant
in addition to being scalar.
