[PATCH v2 bpf-next 0/2] bpf: refine kernel.unpriviliged_bpf_disabled behaviour

[Alan Maguire <alan.maguire@oracle.com>]

Unprivileged BPF disabled (kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled >= 1)
is the default in most cases now; when set, the BPF system call is
blocked for users without CAP_BPF/CAP_SYS_ADMIN.  In some cases
however, it makes sense to split activities between capability-requiring
ones - such as program load/attach - and those that might not require
capabilities such as reading perf/ringbuf events, reading or
updating BPF map configuration etc.  One example of this sort of
approach is a service that loads a BPF program, and a user-space
program that interacts with it.  

Here - rather than blocking all BPF syscall commands - unprivileged
BPF disabled blocks the key object-creating commands (prog load,
map load).  Discussion has alluded to this idea in the past [1],
and Alexei mentioned it was also discussed at LSF/MM/BPF this year.

Changes since RFC [2]:

- widened scope of commands unprivileged BPF disabled allows
  (Alexei, patch 1)
- removed restrictions on map types for lookup, update, delete
  (Alexei, patch 1)
- removed kernel CONFIG parameter controlling unprivilged bpf disabled
  change (Alexei, patch 1)
- widened test scope to cover most BPF syscall commands, with positive
  and negative subtests
