Wait, I just noticed, given you add BPF_F_RDONLY/BPF_F_WRONLY
to attr->map_flags, and later go into find_and_alloc_map(),
for map alloc, which is e.g. array_map_alloc(). There, we
bail out with EINVAL on attr->map_flags & ~BPF_F_NUMA_NODE,
which is the case for both BPF_F_RDONLY/BPF_F_WRONLY ... I
would have expected that the entire code was tested properly;
what was tested exactly in the set?
