We don't currently allow lookups into a devmap from eBPF, because the map lookup returns a pointer directly to the dev->ifindex, which shouldn't be modifiable from eBPF. However, being able to do lookups in devmaps is useful to know (e.g.) whether forwarding to a specific interface is enabled. Currently, programs work around this by keeping a shadow map of another type which indicates whether a map index is valid. Since we now have a flag to make maps read-only from the eBPF side, we can simply lift the lookup restriction if we make sure this flag is always set.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
