Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 2/2] selftests/bpf: test bpf_cpumask_populate() rejects a borrowed cpumask
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2026 14:28:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260709182800.2037938-3-main.kalliope@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260709182800.2037938-1-main.kalliope@gmail.com>
bpf_cpumask_populate() now takes a struct bpf_cpumask *, so update the
kfunc declaration and drop the struct cpumask * casts in the existing
populate tests. Add test_populate_borrowed_destination, which passes a
borrowed task->cpus_ptr and asserts the verifier rejects it as a writable
destination.
