[PATCH bpf-next 09/13] lsm: add bpf_prog_load_post_integrity hook

Fri May 22 02:32:29 UTC 2026
Add a companion to security_bpf_prog_load. The existing hook fires
at PROG_LOAD entry where the verdict is at most BPF_SIG_OK; the new
hook fires from bpf_loader_verify_metadata after the in-kernel
metadata check, just before sig.verdict is promoted to
BPF_SIG_METADATA_VERIFIED. Policy LSMs that want to gate on
metadata verification (not just signature presence) register here.
