[PATCH bpf-next v3 0/5] bpf: add MPTCP subflow support

From: Nicolas Rybowski
Date: Fri Sep 18 2020 - 08:13:17 EST


Previously it was not possible to make a distinction between plain TCP
sockets and MPTCP subflow sockets on the BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS hook.

This patch series now enables a fine control of subflow sockets. In its
current state, it allows to put different sockopt on each subflow from a
same MPTCP connection (socket mark, TCP congestion algorithm, ...) using
BPF programs.

It should also be the basis of exposing MPTCP-specific fields through BPF.

v2 -> v3:
- minor modifications in new MPTCP selftests (Song). More details in patch notes.
- rebase on latest bpf-next
- the new is_mptcp field in bpf_tcp_sock is left as an __u32 to keep cohesion
with the is_fullsock field from bpf_sock_ops. Also it seems easier with a __u32
on the verifier side.

v1 -> v2:
- add basic mandatory selftests for the new helper and is_mptcp field (Alexei)
- rebase on latest bpf-next

Nicolas Rybowski (5):
bpf: expose is_mptcp flag to bpf_tcp_sock
mptcp: attach subflow socket to parent cgroup
bpf: add 'bpf_mptcp_sock' structure and helper
bpf: selftests: add MPTCP test base
bpf: selftests: add bpf_mptcp_sock() verifier tests
