Subject: [RFC PATCH bpf-next v3 02/10] libbpf: Add support for extended bpf syscall
Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2025 23:48:33 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251002154841.99348-3-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251002154841.99348-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev>
To support the extended 'bpf()' syscall introduced in the previous commit,
introduce the following internal APIs:
* 'sys_bpf_ext()'
* 'sys_bpf_ext_fd()'
They wrap the raw 'syscall()' interface to support passing extended
attributes.
* 'probe_sys_bpf_ext()'
Check whether current kernel supports the extended attributes.
