Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v9 1/9] bpf: Extend BPF syscall with common attributes support
Date: Mon,  2 Feb 2026 22:40:38 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260202144046.30651-2-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260202144046.30651-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev>

Extend the BPF syscall to support a set of common attributes shared
across all BPF commands:

1. 'log_buf': User-provided buffer for storing logs.
2. 'log_size': Size of the log buffer.
3. 'log_level': Log verbosity level.
4. 'log_true_size': The size of log reported by kernel.

These common attributes are passed as the 4th argument to the BPF
syscall, with the 5th argument specifying the size of this structure.

To indicate the use of these common attributes from userspace, a new flag
'BPF_COMMON_ATTRS' ('1 << 16') is introduced. This flag is OR-ed into the
'cmd' field of the syscall.

When 'cmd & BPF_COMMON_ATTRS' is set, the kernel will copy the common
attributes from userspace into kernel space for use.
