[bpf-next,v8,1/4] bpf: Add update_socket_protocol hook

Commit Message

Geliang Tang Aug. 3, 2023, 7:30 a.m. UTC

Add a hook named update_socket_protocol in __sys_socket(), for bpf
progs to attach to and update socket protocol. One user case is to
force legacy TCP apps to create and use MPTCP sockets instead of
TCP ones.

Define a mod_ret set named bpf_mptcp_fmodret_ids, add the hook
update_socket_protocol into this set, and register it in
bpf_mptcp_kfunc_init().

Thank you for having looked at that!

Because it is related to MPTCP:

I don't know if your scripts to apply patches support the "Closes" tag
but just in case:

Closes: https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next/issues/79

Cheers,
Matt

Hi Geliang Tang,

nit: The format of the text below is not in kernel doc format,
     so it is probably better if the comment begins with '/*'
     rather than '/**'.

I do use '/*' here first, but got a checkpatch.pl warning:

  ./scripts/checkpatch.pl v8-0001-bpf-Add-update_socket_protocol-hook.patch 
  WARNING: networking block comments don't use an empty /* line, use /* Comment...
  #63: FILE: net/socket.c:1648:
  +/*
  + *	A hook for bpf progs to attach to and update socket protocol.

  total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 0 checks, 59 lines checked

And I found that other comments in net/socket.c all begins with '/**'.
So I use '/**' here too.

Thanks,
-Geliang
