Subject: [PATCH v2 bpf-next 10/11] bpf: tcp: Add SOCK_OPS rcvlowat hook.
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 07:45:01 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260522074601.1658705-11-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260522074601.1658705-1-kuniyu@google.com>
Now, it is time to add the new hooks for BPF_SOCK_OPS_RCVQ_CB.
Let's invoke the BPF SOCK_OPS prog when
1. TCP stack enqueues skb to sk->sk_receive_queue
-> tcp_queue_rcv(), tcp_ofo_queue(), and tcp_fastopen_add_skb()
2. TCP recvmsg() completes
-> __tcp_cleanup_rbuf()
This will allow the BPF prog to parse each skb and dynamically
adjust sk->sk_rcvlowat to suppress unnecessary EPOLLIN wakeups
until sufficient data (e.g., a full RPC frame) is available
in the receive queue.
Note that the direct access to bpf_sock_ops.data is intentionally
disabled by passing 0 as end_offset.
Instead, the BPF prog is supposed to use bpf_skb_load_bytes()
with bpf_sock_ops because payload is not in the linear area
with TCP header/data split on and skb may contain a RPC
descriptor in skb frag. This also simplifies the BPF prog.
The placement of tcp_bpf_rcvlowat() in tcp_ofo_queue() and
tcp_fastopen_add_skb() is chosen to provide the same snapshot
with tcp_queue_rcv().
For example, if tcp_bpf_rcvlowat() were called before updating
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq in tcp_fastopen_add_skb(), BPF prog would
need to implement an unlikely if branch to strip SYN.
In addition, TCP stack can queue overlapping skb into recvq.
Once rcv_nxt is updated with a new skb, BPF prog cannot infer
the previous one from skb->len.
