Often it is useful when applying policy to know something about the task. If the administrator has CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights then they can use kprobe + networking hook and link the two programs together to accomplish this. However, this is a bit clunky and also means we have to call both the network program and kprobe program when we could just use a single program and avoid passing metadata through sk_msg/skb->cb, socket, maps, etc. To accomplish this add probe_* helpers to bpf_base_func_proto programs guarded by a perfmon_capable() check. New supported helpers are the following, BPF_FUNC_get_current_task BPF_FUNC_probe_read_user BPF_FUNC_probe_read_kernel BPF_FUNC_probe_read_user_str BPF_FUNC_probe_read_kernel_str Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Yonghong Song <yhs@fb.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/159033905529.12355.4368381069655254932.stgit@john-Precision-5820-Tower Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
