Exciting. :) Thanks for working on this!

This should be updated to include the new bpf_func field.

Regardless, it'd be better to not expose this structure to userspace.

This will make bpf_func a rather attractive target inside the kernel.
I wonder if there could be ways to harden it against potential attack.

In addition to this work, I'm curious if anyone has looked at JIT
hardening, to make it a less trivial ROP target? For example:
