Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v1 3/3] selftests/bpf: Use bpf_dynptr_slice() to read file dynptr in leak test
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2026 15:09:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604220904.1032145-4-ameryhung@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604220904.1032145-1-ameryhung@gmail.com>
use_file_dynptr_slice_after_put_file() reads the dynptr via
bpf_dynptr_data(), which always returns NULL for a read-only file
dynptr, making the example confusing. Switch to bpf_dynptr_slice(), the
correct read API for file dynptrs, and read (rather than write) the slice
since it is read-only. The test still fails as expected.
