If you don't trust the root the only way to prevent bpf read memory is to disable the whole thing. Have a single check in sys_bpf() to disallow everything if kernel_is_locked_down() and don't add overhead to critical path like bpf_probe_read(). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-security-module" in the body of a message to majordomo at vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
