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;
}
