Subject: [PATCH v6 2/5] bpf: Add bpf_list_add_impl to insert node after a given list node
Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2026 22:34:56 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260304143459.78059-3-pilgrimtao@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260304143459.78059-1-pilgrimtao@gmail.com>
From: Kaitao Cheng <chengkaitao@kylinos.cn>
Add a new kfunc bpf_list_add_impl(head, new, prev, meta, off) that
inserts 'new' after 'prev' in the BPF linked list. Both must be in
the same list; 'prev' must already be in the list. The new node must
be an owning reference (e.g. from bpf_obj_new); the kfunc consumes
that reference and the node becomes non-owning once inserted.
We have added an additional parameter bpf_list_head *head to
bpf_list_add_impl, as the verifier requires the head parameter to
check whether the lock is being held.
Returns 0 on success, -EINVAL if 'prev' is not in a list or 'new'
is already in a list (or duplicate insertion). On failure, the
kernel drops the passed-in node.
