commit ede95a63b5e84ddeea6b0c473b36ab8bfd8c6ce3 upstream. Rick reported that the BPF JIT could potentially fill the entire module space with BPF programs from unprivileged users which would prevent later attempts to load normal kernel modules or privileged BPF programs, for example. If JIT was enabled but unsuccessful to generate the image, then before commit 290af86629b2 ("bpf: introduce BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON config") we would always fall back to the BPF interpreter. Nowadays in the case where the CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON could be set, then the load will abort with a failure since the BPF interpreter was compiled out. Add a global limit and enforce it for unprivileged users such that in case of BPF interpreter compiled out we fail once the limit has been reached or we fall back to BPF interpreter earlier w/o using module mem if latter was compiled in. In a next step, fair share among unprivileged users can be resolved in particular for the case where we would fail hard once limit is reached.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
