Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v1 0/2] bpf: Add kfuncs and selftests for detecting execution context and selftests
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 19:33:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251022113412.352307-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)

This path introduces several kfuncs to help BPF programs determine their
current execution context. When hooking functions for statistics, we often
need to use current->comm to get the process name.

However, these hooked functions can be called from either process context
or interrupt context. When called from interrupt context, the current we
obtain may refer to the process that was interrupted, which may not be
what we need.

These new kfuncs expose APIs that allow users to determine the actual
execution context.
