Hi everyone.

This patch has broken a BPF selftest and as a result BPF CI:
* https://github.com/kernel-patches/bpf/actions/runs/14458537639
* https://github.com/kernel-patches/bpf/actions/runs/14457178732

The test in question is test_sockmap_ktls_disconnect_after_delete
(tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/sockmap_ktls.c) [1].

Since the test is about disconnect use-case, and the patch disallows
it, I assume it's appropriate to simply remove the test?

Please let me know. Thanks.

Ideally, yes. disconnect() implementation by its own nature error and
race prone, I guess  TLS adds some more spice to it. Unless there is a
real end-user scenario behind it, removing the disconnect()
implementation is by far the best option.

Still the test presence hints at some possible use-case[???]. Was it
created using the plain tcp test cases as a template?

Thanks,

Paolo

The original selftest patch d1ba1204f2ee was to re-produce the endless
loop fiexed by 4da6a196f93b.

sk->sk_prot->unhash
        tcp_bpf_unhash
            sk->sk_prot->unhash
                ...
It's try to use disconnect to trigger unhash handler.
I believe we can remove it and use another selftest
instead later.
