Subject: [PATCH bpf 1/6] libbpf: ringbuf: Honor zero consume bounds
Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2026 21:48:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260613-bpf-ringbuf-fixes-v1-1-e623481cb724@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260613-bpf-ringbuf-fixes-v1-0-e623481cb724@kernel.org>
ringbuf_process_ring() checks the record bound only after advancing the
consumer position and invoking the callback. A zero bound therefore
consumes the first available record.
Return before reading the ring positions when the bound is zero so
ring_buffer__consume_n() and ring__consume_n() leave all records queued.
Fixes: 4d22ea94ea33 ("libbpf: Add ring__consume_n / ring_buffer__consume_n")
Assisted-by: Codex:gpt-5.5
