Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v6 3/4] selftests/bpf: Add read_cgroup_file() to cgroup_helpers
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 15:19:54 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825094955.83240-4-ahemadkhawar123@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260825094955.83240-1-ahemadkhawar123@gmail.com>

From: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>

cgroup_helpers has write_cgroup_file()/write_cgroup_file_parent() but no
read counterpart. Add read_cgroup_file() and read_cgroup_file_parent() so
a forked child can read a cgroup file (e.g. memory.current) from the work
dir owned by the parent that set the environment up, without hand-building
the /mnt/... path.
