    selftests/bpf: add a test case for sock_ops perf-event notification · 435f90a3
    Sowmini Varadhan authored
    This patch provides a tcp_bpf based eBPF sample. The test
    
    - ncat(1) as the TCP client program to connect() to a port
      with the intention of triggerring SYN retransmissions: we
      first install an iptables DROP rule to make sure ncat SYNs are
      resent (instead of aborting instantly after a TCP RST)
    
    - has a bpf kernel module that sends a perf-event notification for
      each TCP retransmit, and also tracks the number of such notifications
      sent in the global_map
    
    The test passes when the number of event notifications intercepted
    in user-space matches the value in the global_map.
