Its not compatible with multipath-tcp.org kernel one. 1. The out-of-tree implementation defines a different 'struct mptcp_info', with embedded __user addresses for additional data such as endpoint addresses. 2. Mat Martineau points out that embedded __user addresses doesn't work with BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_GETSOCKOPT() which assumes that copying in optsize bytes from optval provides all data that got copied to userspace. This provides mptcp_info data for the given mptcp socket. Userspace sets optlen to the size of the structure it expects. The kernel updates it to contain the number of bytes that it copied. This allows to append more information to the structure later. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Mat Martineau <mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
