Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v1 0/4] Allow variable offsets for syscall PTR_TO_CTX
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 04:18:45 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260317111850.2107846-1-memxor@gmail.com> (raw)

Enable pointer modification with variable offsets accumulated in the
register for PTR_TO_CTX for syscall programs where it won't be
rewritten, and the context is user-supplied and checked against the max
offset. See patches for details. Fixed offset support landed in [0].

By combining this set with [0], examples like the one below should
succeed verification.

  SEC("syscall")
  int prog(void *ctx) {
	int *arr = ctx;
	int i;

	bpf_for(i, 0, 100)
		arr[i] *= i;

	return 0;
  }
