The current code bails out with negative and positive returns. If the callback returns a positive return code, 'ring_buffer__consume()' and 'ring_buffer__poll()' will return a spurious number of records consumed, but mostly important will continue the processing loop. This patch makes positive returns from the callback a no-op. Signed-off-by: Pedro Tammela <redacted> --- tools/lib/bpf/ringbuf.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
