In the case where we need a specific number of bytes before a verdict can be assigned, even if the data spans multiple sendmsg or sendfile calls. The BPF program may use msg_cork_bytes(). The extreme case is a user can call sendmsg repeatedly with 1-byte msg segments. Obviously, this is bad for performance but is still valid. If the BPF program needs N bytes to validate a header it can use msg_cork_bytes to specify N bytes and the BPF program will not be called again until N bytes have been accumulated. The infrastructure will attempt to coalesce data if possible so in many cases (most my use cases at least) the data will be in a single scatterlist element with data pointers pointing to start/end of the element. However, this is dependent on available memory so is not guaranteed. So BPF programs must validate data pointer ranges, but this is the case anyways to convince the verifier the accesses are valid.
