[PATCH] uapi/netfilter: Change netfilter hook verdict code definition from macro to enum

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

 



As BPF_PROG_TYPE_NETFILTER was added in 6.4, a netfilter
bpf program can attach to netfilter hooks, process package
and return verdict back to netfilter. But those verdict
codes are defined as macro, which could not be compiled
into BTF with btf.c. libbpf, and maybe other bpf tools,
would extract information from BTF and generate a
common header "vmlinux.h". With macro definition, netfilter
bpf program would have to redefine those macro again,
besides including "vmlinux.h".

This code change netfilter hook verdict code definition to
enum, this way,  make it into BTF.
