KFunc bpf_cpumask_acquire

v6.3

Acquire a reference to a BPF cpumask.

Definition

Acquires a reference to a BPF cpumask. The cpumask returned by this function must either be embedded in a map as a kptr, or freed with bpf_cpumask_release().

struct bpf_cpumask *bpf_cpumask_acquire(struct bpf_cpumask *cpumask)

Note

This kfunc returns a pointer to a refcounted object. The verifier will then ensure that the pointer to the object is eventually released using a release kfunc, or transferred to a map using a referenced kptr (by invoking bpf_kptr_xchg). If not, the verifier fails the loading of the BPF program until no lingering references remain in all possible explored states of the program.
