Yonghong, Thanks for the pointer, I fixed this bug, but I found another one that's triggered now the test program I included in tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_pidns. It's seemed that fname was not correctly setup when passing it to filename_lookup. This is fixed now and I'm doing some more testing. I think I'll remove the tests on samples/bpf as they are mostly end on -EPERM as the fix intended. Is ok to remove them and just focus to finish the self tests code?.
