bpf_get_socket_cookie() helper can be used to identify skb that correspond to the same socket. Though socket cookie can be useful in many other use-cases where socket is available in program context. Specifically BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS programs can benefit from it so that one of them can augment a value in a map prepared earlier by other program for the same socket. The patch adds support to call bpf_get_socket_cookie() from BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS. It doesn't introduce new helpers. Instead it reuses same helper name bpf_get_socket_cookie() but adds support to this helper to accept `struct bpf_sock_addr` and `struct bpf_sock_ops`. Documentation in bpf.h is changed in a way that should not break automatic generation of markdown. Signed-off-by: Andrey Ignatov <r...@fb.com>
