The verifier rejects the code: bpf_strncmp(task->comm, 16, "my_task"); with the message: 16: (85) call bpf_strncmp#182 R1 type=trusted_ptr_ expected=fp, pkt, pkt_meta, map_key, map_value, mem, ringbuf_mem, buf Teach the verifier that such access pattern is safe. Do not allow untrusted and legacy ptr_to_btf_id to be passed into helpers.

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.
