load_bpf_file() should fail if ioctl with command PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE and PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF fails. When they do fail, proper error messages are printed. With this change, the below "syscall_tp" run shows that the maximum number of bpf progs attaching to the same perf tracepoint is indeed enforced. $ ./syscall_tp -i 64 prog #0: map ids 4 5 ... prog #63: map ids 382 383 $ ./syscall_tp -i 65 prog #0: map ids 4 5 ... prog #64: map ids 388 389 ioctl PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF failed err Argument list too long Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song <yhs@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
