Geliang Tang says: ==================== As is described in the "How to use MPTCP?" section in MPTCP wiki [1]: "Your app should create sockets with IPPROTO_MPTCP as the proto: ( socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_MPTCP); ). Legacy apps can be forced to create and use MPTCP sockets instead of TCP ones via the mptcpize command bundled with the mptcpd daemon." But the mptcpize (LD_PRELOAD technique) command has some limitations [2]: - it doesn't work if the application is not using libc (e.g. GoLang apps) - in some envs, it might not be easy to set env vars / change the way apps are launched, e.g. on Android - mptcpize needs to be launched with all apps that want MPTCP: we could have more control from BPF to enable MPTCP only for some apps or all the ones of a netns or a cgroup, etc. - it is not in BPF, we cannot talk about it at netdev conf. So this patchset attempts to use BPF to implement functions similer to mptcpize. The main idea is to add a hook in sys_socket() to change the protocol id from IPPROTO_TCP (or 0) to IPPROTO_MPTCP. [1] https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next/wiki [2] https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next/issues/79 v14: - Use getsockopt(MPTCP_INFO) to verify mptcp protocol intead of using nstat command. v13: - drop "Use random netns name for mptcp" patch. v12: - update diag_* log of update_socket_protocol. - add 'ip netns show' after 'ip netns del' to check if there is a test did not clean up its netns. - return libbpf_get_error() instead of -EIO for the error from open_and_load(). - Use getsockopt(SOL_PROTOCOL) to verify mptcp protocol intead of using 'ss -tOni'. v11: - add comments about outputs of 'ss' and 'nstat'. - use "err = verify_mptcpify()" instead of using =+. v10: - drop "#ifdef CONFIG_BPF_JIT". - include vmlinux.h and bpf_tracing_net.h to avoid defining some macros. - drop unneeded checks for mptcp. v9: - update comment for 'update_socket_protocol'. v8: - drop the additional checks on the 'protocol' value after the 'update_socket_protocol()' call. v7: - add __weak and __diag_* for update_socket_protocol. v6: - add update_socket_protocol. v5: - add bpf_mptcpify helper. v4: - use lsm_cgroup/socket_create v3: - patch 8: char cmd[128]; -> char cmd[256]; v2: - Fix build selftests errors reported by CI Closes: https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next/issues/79 ==================== Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau <martin.lau@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
