For arm64 64K page size, the xdp data size was set to be more than 64K

Since the failure of bpf_dynptr_memset() is expected with 64K page size,
return success.

I don't think I understand why the test fixed in patch 1 (e.g.
test_probe_read_user_dynptr) can pass the bpf_xdp_pointer test on
0xffff. I thought the bpf_probe_read_user_str_dynptr will eventually
call the __bpf_xdp_store_bytes which also does a bpf_xdp_pointer?
For example, for test_probe_read_user_dynptr, for function test_dynptr_probe_xdp(),
for this one:
off = xdp_near_frag_end_offset();
the off = 64928. Note that xdp_near_frag_end_offset() return value depends page size.
__u32 xdp_near_frag_end_offset(void)
{
const __u32 headroom = 256;
const __u32 max_frag_size = __PAGE_SIZE - headroom - sizeof(struct skb_shared_info);
/* 32 bytes before the approximate end of the fragment */
return max_frag_size - 32;
}
The 'len' depends on 'test_len[i]' and test_len is
__u32 test_len[7] = {0/* placeholder */, 0, 1, 2, 255, 256, 257};
In bpf_xdp_pointer, we have the following test
if (unlikely(offset > 0xffff || len > 0xffff))
return ERR_PTR(-EFAULT);
In this particular case, offset = 64928, len = {0, 1, 2, 255, 256, 257}, so
it won't return -EFAULT.
For this patch 3, test_dynptr_memset_xdp_chunks, eventually we reached here:
for (write_off = 0; write_off < size; write_off += chunk_sz) {
chunk_sz = min_t(u32, sizeof(buf), size - write_off);
err = __bpf_dynptr_write(ptr, offset + write_off, buf, chunk_sz, 0);
if (err)
return err;
}
So the 'size' is 90000, chunk_sz is 256.
So 'offset + write_off' will be 0, 256, 512, ..., 65536
Once it reached 65536, 'offset > 0xffff' will become true since 0xffff = 65535.
and the -EFAULT will be returned.
