[PATCH bpf-next v1 6/7] selftests/bpf: add splice_read tests for sockmap
From: Jiayuan Chen
Date: Wed Mar 04 2026 - 01:40:22 EST
Add splice_read coverage to sockmap_basic and sockmap_strp selftests.
Each test suite now runs twice: once with normal recv_timeout() and
once with splice-based reads, verifying that data read via splice(2)
through a pipe produces identical results.
A recv_timeout_with_splice() helper is added to sockmap_helpers.h
that creates a temporary pipe, splices data from the socket into
the pipe, then reads from the pipe into the user buffer. MSG_PEEK
calls fall back to native recv since splice does not support peek.
Non-TCP sockets also fall back to native recv.
The splice subtests are distinguished by appending " splice" to
each subtest name via a test__start_subtest macro override.
./test_progs -a sockmap_*

Summary: 5/830 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
