Please explain how the change results in a broken ABI and how the current ABI is better. I gave a fully worked out example of how the current ABI misbehaves using only standard Linux networking tools. > >> diff --git a/kernel/bpf/syscall.c b/kernel/bpf/syscall.c >> index e89acea22ecf..c0bbc55e244d 100644 >> --- a/kernel/bpf/syscall.c >> +++ b/kernel/bpf/syscall.c >> @@ -902,6 +902,17 @@ static int bpf_prog_attach(const union bpf_attr *attr) >> struct cgroup *cgrp; >> enum bpf_prog_type ptype; >> >> + /* >> + * For now, socket bpf hooks attached to cgroups can only be >> + * installed in the init netns and only affect the init netns. >> + * This could be relaxed in the future once some semantic issues >> + * are resolved.

With classic BPF, a program creates a socket and binds a bpf program to it. That program can see the ifindex, which is fine because that ifindex is scoped to the socket's netns, which is (unless the caller uses setns() or unshare()) the same as the caller's netns, so the ifindex means exactly what the caller thinks it means. With cgroup+bpf, the program installing the hook can be completely unrelated to the program whose sockets are subject to the hook, and, if they're using different namespaces, it breaks. --Andy
