Re: [PATCH v9 06/10] bpf: Add bpf_lookup_*_key() and bpf_key_put() kfuncs

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

 



[...]
+noinline __weak struct bpf_key *bpf_lookup_user_key(u32 serial, u64 flags)

Why the need for noinline and the __weak here and below? (If indeed needed
this
should probably be explained in the commit desc.)

Oh, I took from v3 of KP's patch set. It is gone in v5. Will do
the same as well.

+{
+	key_ref_t key_ref;
+	struct bpf_key *bkey;
+
+	/* Keep in sync with include/linux/key.h. */
+	if (flags > (KEY_LOOKUP_PARTIAL << 1) - 1)

Can't we just simplify and test flags &
~(KEY_LOOKUP_CREATE|KEY_LOOKUP_PARTIAL)?

I thought as if we have many flags.

I'd keep it simple for now, and if the actual need comes this can still be changed.

+		return NULL;
+
+	/* Permission check is deferred until actual kfunc using the key. */
+	key_ref = lookup_user_key(serial, flags, KEY_DEFER_PERM_CHECK);
+	if (IS_ERR(key_ref))
+		return NULL;
+
+	bkey = kmalloc(sizeof(*bkey), GFP_KERNEL);
+	if (!bkey) {
+		key_put(key_ref_to_ptr(key_ref));
+		return bkey;

nit: just return NULL probably cleaner

Ok.
