[RFC PATCH v2 4/5] libbpf: Add implementation to consume overwritable BPF ring buffer.

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

 



If the BPF ring buffer is overwritable, ringbuf_process_overwritable_ring() will
be called to handle the data consumption.
All the available data will be consumed but some checks will be performed:
* check we do not read data we already read, if there is no new data, nothing
happens.
* check we do not read more than the buffer size.
* check we do not read invalid data by checking they fit the buffer size.
