Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v11 6/8] bpf: Add bpf_list_add to insert node after a given list node
Date: Thu, 21 May 2026 11:23:04 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260521032306.97118-7-kaitao.cheng@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260521032306.97118-1-kaitao.cheng@linux.dev>

From: Kaitao Cheng <chengkaitao@kylinos.cn>

Add a new kfunc bpf_list_add(head, new, prev, meta, off) that
inserts 'new' after 'prev' in the BPF linked list. Both must be in
the same list; 'prev' must already be in the list. The new node must
be an owning reference (e.g. from bpf_obj_new); the kfunc consumes
that reference and the node becomes non-owning once inserted.

We have added an additional parameter bpf_list_head *head to
bpf_list_add, as the verifier requires the head parameter to
check whether the lock is being held.

Returns 0 on success, -EINVAL if 'prev' is not in a list or 'new'
is already in a list (or duplicate insertion). On failure, the
kernel drops the passed-in node.
