[PATCH v3 bpf 0/2] bpf: return proper error codes for lwt redirect
From: Yan Zhai
Date: Tue Jul 25 2023 - 00:12:32 EST
lwt xmit hook does not expect positive return values in function
ip_finish_output2 and ip6_finish_output2. However, BPF redirect programs
can return positive values such like NET_XMIT_DROP, NET_RX_DROP, and etc
as errors. Such return values can panic the kernel unexpectedly:

This patch fixes the return values from BPF redirect, so the error
handling would be consistent at xmit hook. It also adds a few test cases
to prevent future regressions.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/ZLdY6JkWRccunvu0@debian.debian/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/ZLbYdpWC8zt9EJtq@debian.debian/
changes since v2:
* subject name changed
* also covered redirect to ingress case
* added selftests
changes since v1:
* minor code style changes
