Subject: [PATCH bpf-next] bpf: Update max_entries for array maps
Date: Tue, 25 Oct 2022 11:28:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221025092843.81572-1-dev@der-flo.net> (raw)
To improve memory handling and alignment max_entries is rounded up
before using its value to allocate memory.
This can lead to a situation where more memory is allocated than usable
if max_entries is no adjusted accordingly. So this change updates
max_entries in order to make the allocated memory available.
