[PATCH RFC bpf-next 1/9] bpf: allow more maps in sleepable bpf programs

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

 



These 3 maps types are required for HID-BPF when a user wants to do
IO with a device from a sleepable tracing point.

HID-BPF relies on `bpf_tail_call()` to selectively call the BPF programs
attached to a device, thus we need BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY access.

Allowing BPF_MAP_TYPE_QUEUE (and therefore BPF_MAP_TYPE_STACK) allows
for a BPF program to prepare from an IRQ the list of HID commands to send
back to the device and then these commands can be retrieved from the
sleepable trace point.
