Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/2] Documentation/bpf: Fix stale references in map docs
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2026 00:01:15 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114170117.196552-1-supersonix03@gmail.com> (raw)
Two documentation fixes for the BPF map pages.
Patch 1 records that since commit be39165224d0 ("bpf, sockmap: Disallow
update and delete from tc, xdp, socket_filter and flow_dissector"), only
BPF_TRACE_ITER tracing, sock_ops (delete only), sk_reuseport and
sk_lookup programs may mutate a sockmap or sockhash; anything else is
rejected with "cannot update sockmap in this context". The kernel-side
sections of map_sockmap.rst did not mention this. It also drops the
reference to progs/test_sockmap_update.c, removed by
commit 5de7a6eaed89 ("selftests/bpf: Drop
tc/xdp/flow_dissector/socket_filter sockmap mutation tests").
Patch 2 fixes two moved selftests paths: test_lpm_map.c, now
map_tests/lpm_trie_map_basic_ops.c, and test_xdp_noinline.c, now under
progs/.
Documentation only; no functional change.

identical warnings before and after. Documentation only, so nothing to
run-test.
