In current solution, we can't reuse the existing bpf_session_cookie() and bpf_session_is_return(), as their prototype is different from bpf_fsession_is_return() and bpf_fsession_cookie(). In bpf_fsession_cookie(), we need the function argument "void *ctx" to get the cookie. However, the prototype of bpf_session_cookie() is "void".I think it's ok to change proto to bpf_session_cookie(void *ctx) for kprobe-session. It's not widely used yet, so proto change is ok if it helps to simplify this tramp-session code. I see that you adjust get_kfunc_ptr_arg_type(), so the verifier will enforce PTR_TO_CTX for kprobe and trampoline. Potentially can relax and enforce r1==ctx only for trampoline, but I would do it for both for consistency.Yeah, I'd support that. It's early enough that this shouldn't be breaking a lot of users (if any). Jiri, do you guys use bpf_session_is_return() or bpf_session_cookie() anywhere already?
np, we can still adjust, it's in PR that's not merged yet jirka
