[PATCH bpf v3 0/2] Fix partial copy of non-linear test_run output

From: Sun Jian

When BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN returns non-linear output and userspace provides a
short data_out buffer, bpf_test_finish() can return -ENOSPC before copying
the packet prefix or updating data_size_out.

Fix this by deriving the linear copy length from the packet layout rather
than from the already-clamped copy_size. Add selftest coverage for both
non-linear skb and XDP frags paths.

Changes in v3:

* Keep the fix patch minimal by leaving the existing offset declaration
unchanged.
* Drop unnecessary memset() calls from the new selftests.
* Keep the pass-through TC program and larger test packet for the skb
case. pkt_v4 is too small once the short IPv4 input check is accounted
for, and the existing packet-access program fails before reaching the
partial copy-out path with such a short linear area.

Changes in v2:

* Fix the Fixes tag to point to the commit that introduced the shared
non-linear copy-out logic.
* Drop skb-specific wording from the fix commit.
* Move the selftest from skb_load_bytes.c to prog_run_opts.c.
* Add XDP frags coverage in addition to non-linear skb coverage.

v1:

Tested with:
./test_progs -t prog_run_opts -v
./test_progs -t skb_load_bytes -v
./test_progs -t xdp_pull_data -v
