Have to admit I knowingly disregarded that warning as more of a
recommendation. Out of habit and since I personally don’t see any
compelling reason to generally use single-line statements after ifs,
only multiple disadvantages.

But wrong place to argue here, of course. Will bow to the warning.

You are right, I followed the other two test_*() functions there. Good
to know that it behaves similar to (k)free() and others. Will remove
the ifs around bpf_link__destroy().

I fully agree it’s not elegant to redefine tcp_sk() twice more.

It was between either using bpf_tcp_helpers.h and adding and
maintaining additional struct members there. Or using the (as I
understood it) more “modern” approach with vmlinux.h and redefining the
trivial tcp_sk(). I chose the later. Didn’t see a reason not to slowly
introduce vmlinux.h into the CA tests.

I had the same dilemma for the algorithm I’m implementing: Reuse
bpf_tcp_helpers.h from the kernel tree and extend it. Or use vmlinux.h
and copy only some of the (mostly trivial) helper functions. Also chose
the later here.

While doing the above, I also considered extracting the type
declarations from bpf_tcp_helpers.h into an, e.g.,
bpf_tcp_types_helper.h, keeping only the functions in
bpf_tcp_helpers.h. bpf_tcp_helpers.h could have been a base helper for
any BPF CA implementation then and used with either vmlinux.h or the
“old-school” includes. Similar to the way bpf_helpers.h is used. But at
that point, a bpf_tcp_types_helper.h could have probably just been
dropped for good and in favor of vmlinux.h. So I didn’t continue with
that.

Do you insist to use bpf_tcp_helpers.h instead of vmlinux.h? Or could
the described split into two headers make sense after all?

(Will wait for your reply here before sending a v4.)
