Hi Feng,

I have a comment about the methodology of the test, but the patch
looks ok to me. Why do we have to test via a tracing program? I think
what we need is just a task and a cgroup. Since we have the kfunc
bpf_task_from_pid() and bpf_cgroup_from_id(), we can write a syscall
program which takes a pid and a cgroup id as input and get the task
and cgroup objects directly in the program.

I like testing via a syscall program because it doesn't depend on the
newtask tracepoint and it should be simpler. But I'm ok with the
current version of the patch, just have some thoughts.

Hao
