From ae24082331d9bbaae283aafbe930a8f0eb85605a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KP Singh Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2020 20:18:49 +0100 Subject: bpf: Introduce BPF_MODIFY_RETURN When multiple programs are attached, each program receives the return value from the previous program on the stack and the last program provides the return value to the attached function. The fmod_ret bpf programs are run after the fentry programs and before the fexit programs. The original function is only called if all the fmod_ret programs return 0 to avoid any unintended side-effects. The success value, i.e. 0 is not currently configurable but can be made so where user-space can specify it at load time. For example: int func_to_be_attached(int a, int b) { <--- do_fentry do_fmod_ret: if (ret != 0) goto do_fexit; original_function: } <--- do_fexit The fmod_ret program attached to this function can be defined as: SEC("fmod_ret/func_to_be_attached") int BPF_PROG(func_name, int a, int b, int ret) { // This will skip the original function logic. return 1; } The first fmod_ret program is passed 0 in its return argument.
