Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] Add bpf support to set sk_bound_dev_if

The recently added VRF support in Linux leverages the bind-to-device
API for programs to specify an L3 domain for a socket. While
SO_BINDTODEVICE has been around for ages, not every ipv4/ipv6 capable
program has support for it. Even for those programs that do support it,
the API requires processes to be started as root (CAP_NET_RAW) which
is not desirable from a general security perspective.

This patch set leverages Daniel Mack's work to attach bpf programs to
a cgroup:

    https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg134028.html

to provide a capability to set sk_bound_dev_if for all AF_INET{6}
sockets opened by a process in a cgroup when the sockets are allocated.

This capability enables running any program in a VRF context and is key
to deploying Management VRF, a fundamental configuration for networking
gear, with any Linux OS installation.

David Ahern (3):
  bpf: Refactor cgroups code in prep for new type
  bpf: Add new cgroups prog type to enable sock modifications
  samples: bpf: add userspace example for modifying sk_bound_dev_if
