====================
After being able to add metadata to messages with sk_msg_push_data we
have also found it useful to be able to "pop" this metadata off before
sending it to applications in some cases. This series adds a new helper
sk_msg_pop_data() and the associated patches to add tests and tools/lib
support.
Thanks!
v2: Daniel caught that we missed adding sk_msg_pop_data to the changes
data helper so that the verifier ensures BPF programs revalidate
data after using this helper. Also improve documentation adding a
return description and using RST syntax per Quentin's comment. And
delta calculations for DROP with pop'd data (albeit a strange set
of operations for a program to be doing) had potential to be
incorrect possibly confusing user space applications, so fix it.
