Stanislav Fomichev says: ==================== While having a per-net-ns flow dissector programs is convenient for testing, security-wise it's better to have only one vetted global flow dissector implementation. Let's have a convention that when BPF flow dissector is installed in the root namespace, child namespaces can't override it. The intended use-case is to attach global BPF flow dissector early from the init scripts/systemd. Attaching global dissector is prohibited if some non-root namespace already has flow dissector attached. Also, attaching to non-root namespace is prohibited when there is flow dissector attached to the root namespace. v3: * drop extra check and empty line (Andrii Nakryiko) v2: * EPERM -> EEXIST (Song Liu) * Make sure we don't have dissector attached to non-root namespaces when attaching the global one (Andrii Nakryiko) ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

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 Restructured Text 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.
