[RFC PATCH bpf-next 0/2] bpf: bpf link iterator

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

 



Bpf links seem to be one of the important structures for which no
iterator is provided. Such iterator could be useful in those cases when
generic 'task/file' is not suitable or better performance is needed.

The implementation is mostly copied from prog iterator, and I would like
to get any high-level feedback about what needs to be different or have
to be taken into account. As a side note, I would also appreciate if
someone could point me out to some guide about writing selftests for bpf
subsystem -- for some unclear reason I couldn't compile the test from
this changeset, and was testing it only manually with a custom test
program.
