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

 



Allow forcing the seed of a hash table to zero, for deterministic
execution during benchmarking and testing.

Changes from v2:
* Change ordering of BPF_F_ZERO_SEED in linux/bpf.h

Comments adressed from v1:
* Add comment to discourage production use to linux/bpf.h
* Require CAP_SYS_ADMIN

Lorenz Bauer (4):
  bpf: allow zero-initializing hash map seed
  bpf: move BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE after map flags
  tools: sync linux/bpf.h
  tools: add selftest for BPF_F_ZERO_SEED
