[PATCH bpf-next v6 2/2] selftests/bpf: Add trampolines single and multi-level pointer params test coverage

From: Slava Imameev <hidden>
Date: 2026-03-14 08:22:37
Also in: bpf, linux-kselftest, lkml
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [selftests] (test runners & infrastructure), kernel selftest framework, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Shuah Khan, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Add single and multi-level pointer parameters and return value test
coverage for BPF trampolines. Includes verifier tests for single and
multi-level pointers. The tests check verifier logs for pointers
inferred as scalar() type.
