introduce BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag that can be used to attach multiple bpf programs to a cgroup. The difference between three possible flags for BPF_PROG_ATTACH command: - NONE(default): No further bpf programs allowed in the subtree. - BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program, the program in this cgroup yields to sub-cgroup program. - BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program, that cgroup program gets run in addition to the program in this cgroup. NONE and BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE existed before. This patch doesn't change their behavior. It only clarifies the semantics in relation to new flag. Only one program is allowed to be attached to a cgroup with NONE or BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag. Multiple programs are allowed to be attached to a cgroup with BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag. They are executed in FIFO order (those that were attached first, run first) The programs of sub-cgroup are executed first, then programs of this cgroup and then programs of parent cgroup. All eligible programs are executed regardless of return code from earlier programs. To allow efficient execution of multiple programs attached to a cgroup and to avoid penalizing cgroups without any programs attached introduce 'struct bpf_prog_array' which is RCU protected array of pointers to bpf programs.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
