Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v5 5/7] selftests/bpf: Test modified syscall ctx for ARG_PTR_TO_CTX
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2026 21:43:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260406194403.1649608-6-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260406194403.1649608-1-memxor@gmail.com>
Ensure that global subprogs and tail calls can only accept an unmodified
PTR_TO_CTX for syscall programs. For all other program types, fixed or
variable offsets on PTR_TO_CTX is rejected when passed into an argument
of any call instruction type, through the unified logic of
check_func_arg_reg_off.
Finally, add a positive example of a case that should succeed with all
our previous changes.
