In the case where we need a specific number of bytes before a verdict can be assigned, even if the data spans multiple sendmsg or sendfile calls. The BPF program may use msg_cork_bytes(). The extreme case is a user can call sendmsg repeatedly with 1-byte msg segments. Obviously, this is bad for performance but is still valid. If the BPF program needs N bytes to validate a header it can use msg_cork_bytes to specify N bytes and the BPF program will not be called again until N bytes have been accumulated. The infrastructure will attempt to coalesce data if possible so in many cases (most my use cases at least) the data will be in a single scatterlist element with data pointers pointing to start/end of the element. However, this is dependent on available memory so is not guaranteed. So BPF programs must validate data pointer ranges, but this is the case anyways to convince the verifier the accesses are valid.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
