Hi,
This is a followup of my v1 at [0].
The short summary of the previous cover letter and discussions is that HID could benefit from BPF for the following use cases:
- simple fixup of report descriptor: benefits are faster development time and testing, with the produced bpf program being shipped in the kernel directly (the shipping part is *not* addressed here).
- Universal Stylus Interface: allows a user-space program to define its own kernel interface
- Surface Dial: somehow similar to the previous one except that userspace can decide to change the shape of the exported device
- firewall: still partly missing there, there is not yet interception of hidraw calls, but it's coming in a followup series, I promise
- tracing: well, tracing.
I tried to address as many comments as I could and here is the short log of changes:
v2: ===
- split the series by subsystem (bpf, HID, libbpf, selftests and samples)
- Added an extra patch at the beginning to not require CAP_NET_ADMIN for BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2 (please shout if this is wrong)
- made the bpf context attached to HID program of dynamic size: * the first 1 kB will be able to be addressed directly * the rest can be retrieved through bpf_hid_{set|get}_data (note that I am definitivey not happy with that API, because there is part of it in bits and other in bytes. ouch)
- added an extra patch to prevent non GPL HID bpf programs to be loaded of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_HID * same here, not really happy but I don't know where to put that check in verifier.c
- added a new flag BPF_F_INSERT_HEAD for BPF_LINK_CREATE syscall when in used with HID program types. * this flag is used for tracing, to be able to load a program before any others that might already have been inserted and that might change the data stream.
Cheers, Benjamin
