I think you need to have at least one single interface using this before you can expose it to userspace. So this should come in the small batch that introduces the first interface of your ebpf code in userspace. AFAIK, this has been the policy so far. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
