Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 3/9] bpf: Add log support for iter link_create
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2026 22:08:10 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109140816.5196-4-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109140816.5196-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev>
iter BPF_LINK_CREATE returns an error without explaining invalid target
FDs, flags, or iterator information, or an unsupported program.
Pass the BPF_LINK_CREATE log to the iter attach path and report these
failures.
