    net: filter: cleanup invocation of internal BPF · 5fe821a9
    Alexei Starovoitov 提交于
    Kernel API for classic BPF socket filters is:
    
    sk_unattached_filter_create() - validate classic BPF, convert, JIT
    SK_RUN_FILTER() - run it
    sk_unattached_filter_destroy() - destroy socket filter
    
    Cleanup internal BPF kernel API as following:
    
    sk_filter_select_runtime() - final step of internal BPF creation.
      Try to JIT internal BPF program, if JIT is not available select interpreter
    SK_RUN_FILTER() - run it
    sk_filter_free() - free internal BPF program
    
    Disallow direct calls to BPF interpreter. Execution of the BPF program should
    be done with SK_RUN_FILTER() macro.
    
    Example of internal BPF create, run, destroy:
    
      struct sk_filter *fp;
    
      fp = kzalloc(sk_filter_size(prog_len), GFP_KERNEL);
      memcpy(fp->insni, prog, prog_len * sizeof(fp->insni[0]));
      fp->len = prog_len;
    
      sk_filter_select_runtime(fp);
    
      SK_RUN_FILTER(fp, ctx);
    
      sk_filter_free(fp);
    
    Sockets, seccomp, testsuite, tracing are using different ways to populate
    sk_filter, so first steps of program creation are not common.
