It sounds to me that 'xdpdump/xdpcap' (tcpdump equivalent) is
the only use case both you and Toke are advocating for.
I think such case we can do already without new kernel code:
- retrieve prog_id of the program attached to given xdp ifindex
- convert to fd
- create prog_array of one element and store that prog_fd
- create xdpump bpf prog that prints to ring buffer
and tail_calls into that prog_array
- replace xdp prog on that ifindex
Now it see all the traffic first and existing xdp progs keep working.
What am I missing?
