When running BPF selftests on arm64 with a 64K page size, I encountered
the following two test failures:
sockmap_basic/sockmap skb_verdict change tail:FAIL
tc_change_tail:FAIL
With further debugging, I identified the root cause in the following
kernel code within __bpf_skb_change_tail():
u32 max_len = BPF_SKB_MAX_LEN;
u32 min_len = __bpf_skb_min_len(skb);
int ret;
if (unlikely(flags || new_len > max_len || new_len < min_len))
return -EINVAL;
With a 4K page size, new_len = 65535 and max_len = 16064, the function
returns -EINVAL. However, With a 64K page size, max_len increases to
261824, allowing execution to proceed further in the function. This is
because BPF_SKB_MAX_LEN scales with the page size and larger page sizes
result in higher max_len values.
Updating the new_len parameter in both tests based on actual kernel
page size resolved both failures.

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 reStructuredText 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.
