Subject: [PATCH v1 bpf-next 2/8] bpf: tcp: Introduce BPF_SOCK_OPS_RCVLOWAT_CB.
Date: Fri, 8 May 2026 07:33:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260508073355.3916746-3-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260508073355.3916746-1-kuniyu@google.com>
We will introduce a new type of opt-in hooks for BPF SOCK_OPS prog.
The hooks can be enabled on per-socket basis by bpf_setsockopt():
int flag = BPF_SOCK_OPS_RCVLOWAT_CB_FLAG;
bpf_setsockopt(sk, SOL_TCP, TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS,
&flags, sizeof(flags));
or via the SOCK_OPS specific helper:
bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags_set(skops, BPF_SOCK_OPS_RCVLOWAT_CB_FLAG);
Once activated, the BPF prog will be invoked with bpf_sock_ops.op
set to BPF_SOCK_OPS_RCVLOWAT_CB upon the following events:
1. TCP stack enqueues skb to sk->sk_receive_queue
2. TCP recvmsg() completes
This will allow the BPF prog to dynamically adjust sk->sk_rcvlowat,
suppressing unnecessary EPOLLIN wakeups until sufficient data
(e.g., a full RPC frame) is available in the receive queue.
Note that is_locked_tcp_sock_ops() is left unchanged not to enable
bpf_setsockopt() unnecessarily.
