Subject: [PATCH v2 4/5] bpf: allow fs kfuncs for binfmt_misc_ops programs
Date: Sat, 11 Jul 2026 21:08:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260711-binfmt-misc-bpf-v2-v2-4-d6591ceaf207@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260711-binfmt-misc-bpf-v2-v2-0-d6591ceaf207@gmail.com>
From: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
The fs kfuncs are currently exclusive to LSM programs. A binfmt_misc
load program needs a subset of them to do anything interesting: to
compute an interpreter relative to the binary's location it wants
bpf_path_d_path() on bprm->file->f_path, and matching on per-binary
metadata wants bpf_get_file_xattr() and friends.
Register the fs kfunc set for struct_ops programs as well and extend
the filter to admit binfmt_misc_ops programs. The xattr setters stay
exclusive to LSM programs: a binary type handler decides how to run a
binary, it has no business modifying filesystem state.
This only takes effect in builds that have the fs kfunc set at all,
i.e. CONFIG_BPF_LSM. Without it a binfmt_misc handler is limited to
bprm fields and the file-backed dynptr, which are provided by the
common kfunc set.
