KP Singh ae24082331 bpf: Introduce BPF_MODIFY_RETURN
When multiple programs are attached, each program receives the return
value from the previous program on the stack and the last program
provides the return value to the attached function.

The fmod_ret bpf programs are run after the fentry programs and before
the fexit programs. The original function is only called if all the
fmod_ret programs return 0 to avoid any unintended side-effects. The
success value, i.e. 0 is not currently configurable but can be made so
where user-space can specify it at load time.

For example:

int func_to_be_attached(int a, int b)
{  <--- do_fentry

do_fmod_ret:
   <update ret by calling fmod_ret>
   if (ret != 0)
        goto do_fexit;

original_function:

    <side_effects_happen_here>

}  <--- do_fexit

The fmod_ret program attached to this function can be defined as:

SEC("fmod_ret/func_to_be_attached")
int BPF_PROG(func_name, int a, int b, int ret)
{
        // This will skip the original function logic.
        return 1;
}

The first fmod_ret program is passed 0 in its return argument.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
