Returns
SK_PASS on success, or SK_DROP on error.
static long (* const bpf_msg_redirect_hash)(struct sk_msg_md *msg, void *map, void *key, __u64 flags) = (void *) 71;
Usage
This helper is used in programs implementing policies at the socket level. If the message msg is allowed to pass (i.e. if the verdict eBPF program returns SK_PASS), redirect it to the socket referenced by map (of type BPF_MAP_TYPE_SOCKHASH) using hash key. Both ingress and egress interfaces can be used for redirection. The BPF_F_INGRESS value in flags is used to make the distinction (ingress path is selected if the flag is present, egress path otherwise). This is the only flag supported for now.
