Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 4/8] bpf, docs: Document BPF_ITER_NOSLEEP
Date: Sat, 07 Nov 2026 18:58:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261107-sockmap-update-limit-iter-v3-4-7c0bad1ad036@rbox.co> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107-sockmap-update-limit-iter-v3-0-7c0bad1ad036@rbox.co>
Commit dfcd17659112 ("bpf: Reject sleepable programs for task_vma
iterator") introduced BPF_ITER_NOSLEEP, but did not update the docs.
Mention the flag in bpf_iterators.rst.
