[PATCH bpf-next v5 1/3] bpf: add destructive kfunc flag
From: Artem Savkov
Date: Wed Aug 10 2022 - 02:59:40 EST
Add KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag for destructive functions. Functions with this
flag set will require CAP_SYS_BOOT capabilities.

The KF_SLEEPABLE flag is used for kfuncs that may sleep. Such kfuncs can only
be called by sleepable BPF programs (BPF_F_SLEEPABLE).
+2.4.7 KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag
+--------------------------
+
+The KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag is used to indicate functions calling which is
+destructive to the system. For example such a call can result in system
+rebooting or panicking. Due to this additional restrictions apply to these
+calls. At the moment they only require CAP_SYS_BOOT capability, but more can be
+added later.
