[v2,bpf-next,1/2] fs/xattr: bpf: Introduce security.bpf xattr name prefix

Commit Message

Song Liu Oct. 16, 2024, 7:09 a.m. UTC

Introduct new xattr name prefix security.bpf, and enable reading these
xattrs from bpf kfuncs bpf_get_[file|dentry]_xattr(). Note that
"security.bpf" could be the name of the xattr or the prefix of the
name. For example, both "security.bpf" and "security.bpf.xxx" are
valid xattr name; while "security.bpfxxx" is not valid.

As we are on it, correct the comments for return value of
bpf_get_[file|dentry]_xattr(), i.e. return length the xattr value on
successl.
