Subject: [RFC PATCH bpf-next v3 06/12] bpf: Pass flags in bpf_link_create for struct_ops
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 16:58:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <04f5673e4b9c992a6e42ef3ea36db1df1418815f.1769157382.git.zhuhui@kylinos.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1769157382.git.zhuhui@kylinos.cn>
From: Hui Zhu <zhuhui@kylinos.cn>
To support features like allowing overrides in cgroup hierarchies,
we need a way to pass flags from userspace to the kernel when
attaching a struct_ops.
Extend `bpf_struct_ops_link` to include a `flags` field. This field
is populated from `attr->link_create.flags` during link creation. This
will allow struct_ops implementations, such as the upcoming memory
controller ops, to interpret these flags and modify their attachment
behavior accordingly.
