Subject: bpf: fix refcnt overflow

From: Alexei Starovoitov <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 92117d8443bc5afacc8d5ba82e541946310f106e ]

On a system with >32Gbyte of phyiscal memory and infinite RLIMIT_MEMLOCK, the malicious application may overflow 32-bit bpf program refcnt. It's also possible to overflow map refcnt on 1Tb system. Impose 32k hard limit which means that the same bpf program or map cannot be shared by more than 32k processes.

Fixes 1be7f75d1668 ("bpf: enable non-root eBPF programs")
