mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.8-rc1 commit c871d0e00f0e8c207ce8ff89025e35cc49a8a3c3 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IAYPJF CVE: CVE-2024-47703

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...

--------------------------------

Similarly to subprog/callback logic, enforce return value of BPF program using more precise smin/smax range.

We need to adjust a bunch of tests due to a changed format of an error message.

--------------------------------

A bpf prog returning a positive number attached to file_alloc_security hook makes kernel panic.

This happens because file system can not filter out the positive number returned by the LSM prog using IS_ERR, and misinterprets this positive number as a file pointer.

Given that hook file_alloc_security never returned positive number before the introduction of BPF LSM, and other BPF LSM hooks may encounter similar issues, this patch adds LSM return value check in verifier, to ensure no unexpected value is returned.

After backport commit 4a806981d0c81 ("[Backport] bpf: enforce exact retval range on subprog/callback exit"), struct `tnum` was replaced to struct `bpf_retval_range`, which reduced 8 bytes and result in a kabi breakage.

Fix this breakage by padding an extra field.
