Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v8 0/2] bpftool: Use batch lookups for map dumps
Date: Thu,  5 Nov 2026 03:55:02 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1793818387.git.hi@tychen.cc> (raw)

Use batch lookups for map dumps and continue with individual lookups
from the last printed key after any batch error.

Changes in v8:
- Follow Alexei's simpler approach: use a 1 MiB buffer budget, remove
  buffer growth and error classes, and try batching for all map types.
- Count and fail bpftool's lookups in the selftest. Check plain and JSON
  output, including failures before and after the first batch.
- Drop Quentin's Acked-by on the rewritten patch.

Tested in an x86-64 VM: all 16 batch subtests pass; unpatched bpftool
fails all 16. The combination with the recursive series also passes.

v7: https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1793732386.git.hi@tychen.cc
